Samba seems to come on just fine here. I'm sharing files.

I have trouble with SAMBA, when there is a windows machine on the network, but it usually starts to work about 20 minutes after boot. If they are all ArcaOS machines, it usually starts to work in about a minute after boot.

lmhosts is a file, not a directory.  I have found that it works better if you put your machine names, with IP addresses, in the HOST file, and eliminate the lmhosts file. I also turn off the setting to create the lmhosts file. YMMV.
