Glen,
I was doing some troubleshooting of a Samba problem I had (could browse the
shares) and encountered the same error message upon executing 'smbclient -L
servername' from the Samba server. What I found might help you; or not since
you are trying to do something different than I was.
>From DIAGNOSIS.txt file (this came with the tarball, don't know about the
RPM) test #3.
"If you get a error message containing the string "Bad password" then you
probably have either an incorrect "hosts allow", "hosts deny" or "valid
users" line in your smb.conf, or your guest account is not valid. Check what
your guest account is using "testparm" and temporarily remove any "hosts
allow", "hosts deny", "valid users" or "invalid users" lines."
My problem was I had deleted the account I had set guest access to. Hope
this helps.
John
