Hi, I have a mandrake 9.1 installed, and currently the system is configured that authentication happens against the /etc/passwd file on the local system.
My linux pc is partly used as a fileserver for a couple windows XP & 2K boxes that are in a WORKGROUP, no NT Domain. On all computers, the same accounts exist with the same passwords... however, if I put a file on the public drive on the linux, I always get the owner nobody:nobody on the linux system. Could anybody please give me a couple hints how I can convert the authentication that when I access a share with user1/password1, the linux system will recognize the user1/password1 ? Currently, even if I try to access \\linux\user1, mapping the drive with user1/password1, the linux system won't accept my login. Thanks in advance. Jan
