I ran into this setting up a server on fedora FC6 (and it reminded me why I usually stick to Centos...). I thought I saw something more definitive about the issue than the email here, like it was something that changed in smbclient argument parsing but I can't find it now. In my setup, debugging was complicated a bit by the fact that I have a domain and password server set up in my /etc/samba/smb.conf file that I want to be used by samba as a server on the same machine. However, smbclient also picks these up and will fail authentication against local accounts on the target machines unless pointed to a different config file with the -s option. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
