In either case, the map utility prompts me for a password to connect to
these resources. I've tried the root password, and all the passwords
for individual users, but it always comes back and says, "the password
is incorrect, please try again." Is there another password that I'm not
aware of that I need to be entering here, or another daemon I'm not yet
running to be able to map a network drive in this way? The man pages
didn't provide as much help as I wished.
Two things to check:
1. Make sure you have a share name in the smb.conf such that the
filesystem you are attempting to mount is accessible through
samba. There are various examples in the default smb.conf
already.
2. Make sure your smb password is up-to-date by running
'smbpasswd <username>'. This won't be needed when PAM support is
readded to samba. See /usr/doc/samba/README.debian for further
details.
There is extensive information in /usr/doc/samba that is not provided
in the manpages. Hope this helps!
