I am still having difficulty using samba on sarge. Samba 3.0.7 As a reference, here is my smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.0.104 (192.168.0.104) # Date: 2004/10/08 22:05:09 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = MSHOME server string = %h server (Samba %v) passdb backend = tdbsam, guest passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n . unix password sync = Yes syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 os level = 70 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ldap ssl = no panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d invalid users = root use sendfile = No [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /tmp create mask = 0700 printable = Yes browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/printers [lp] comment = Samsung ML-1430 Series (SPL) path = /tmp read only = No create mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes printable = Yes printer name = lp use client driver = Yes oplocks = No share modes = No Essentially, when I use any one of the 3 windows xp sp2 clients, and go to "My Netowrk Places" and clikc on "View Workgroup Computers" I get "MSHOME is not accessible, You might not have permissions to view that network resource. Contact the administrator.... The Network path was not found." Well, I decided to play with the server. I found that when I type "smbclient -L localhost" into the server, I get the following... quack-attack:/root# smbclient -L localhost Password: Anonymous login successful Domain=[MSHOME] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.7-Debian] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- print$ Disk Printer Drivers lp Printer Samsung ML-1430 Series (SPL) IPC$ IPC IPC Service (quack-attack server (Samba 3.0.7- Debian)) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (quack-attack server (Samba 3.0.7- Debian)) Anonymous login successful Domain=[MSHOME] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.7-Debian] Server Comment --------- ------- ABSPC ICU2 LITTLEPRINCESS MINI-QD QUACK-ATTACK quack-attack server (Samba 3.0.7-Debian) Workgroup Master --------- ------- MSHOME QUACK-ATTACK But when I use a login, I don't see the servers anymore... quack-attack:/root# smbclient -L localhost -U pquack Password: Domain=[QUACK-ATTACK] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.7-Debian] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- print$ Disk Printer Drivers lp Printer Samsung ML-1430 Series (SPL) IPC$ IPC IPC Service (quack-attack server (Samba 3.0.7-Debian)) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (quack-attack server (Samba 3.0.7-Debian)) pwq Disk Home Directories Domain=[QUACK-ATTACK] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.7-Debian] Server Comment --------- ------- Workgroup Master --------- ------- MSHOME QUACK-ATTACK Shouldn't "smbclient -L localhost" give the same output as "smbclient -L localhost -U pquack"?
