I've just added the following to my smb.conf as a test:
root preexec = /etc/samba/connection.sh CONNECT %T %S %P %U %m
My (executable) /etc/samba/connection.sh is as follows:
#!/bin/sh
echo "$@" >> /var/log/samba-connect.log
After an 'smbclient -L localhost -N', I see the following in
/var/log/samba-connect.log:
CONNECT 2007/07/24 02:31:28 IPC_ /tmp nobody borges
CONNECT 2007/07/24 02:31:28 IPC_ /tmp nobody borges
This works whether or not I have 'encrypt passwords' or 'valid users' set;
though when 'encrypt passwords = false' is set, I do get a different set of
log messages:
CONNECT 2007/07/24 02:32:15 IPC_ /tmp nobody 127.0.0.1
CONNECT 2007/07/24 02:32:16 IPC_ /tmp nobody borges
The first of these messages shows up on a permission denied error. Nothing
is logged in the case of a failed login.
With 'encrypt passwords = false' and 'valid users = %S', I am able to
connect to my home share using smbclient //localhost/vorlon. I've tested
this with both the etch and sid versions of samba.
At this point, I'm inclined to assume that you have some other incorrect
configuration options enabled in your smb.conf, and that this is the source
of the problem you're having. At least, there is no evidence of a bug here,
so I would recommend that you get in touch with the upstream support list
for further troubleshooting help.
