Hi all, I am running samba 2.0.8 on a potato system. I have samba shares set up on my linux machine, and from another linux machine 'smbclient -L pinky' reports this:
Domain=[NEW] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.8] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- homes Disk Home Directories printers Printer All Printers IPC$ IPC IPC Service (pinky server (Samba 2.0.8)) lp Printer Generic dot-matrix printer entry tkcook Disk Home Directories Server Comment --------- ------- PINKY pinky server (Samba 2.0.8) Workgroup Master --------- ------- NEW So, so far as I can see, the smbd configuration is good. But when I attempt to connect from a windoze box, so my users can see their UNIX home dirs, I get problems. When I try to list available shares I get an authentication failure, and I keep on getting it no matter what username and password I put in, except guest, which gives the error 'account currently disabled'. I have done nothing to disable this account, and I can see no line in the smb.conf file that might disable it. Has anyone come across this before? Tom
