Hi, User and machine accounts can be added using pdbedit utility. You can use the -m switch of pdbedit to add a machine account. Refer http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/pdbedit.8.html for more info on pdbedit.
You can also try specifying a "admin user" in your smb.conf and use that user's credentials while joining. Hope this helps :) - Mayuk On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 6:58 PM, Some One <databy...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Guys, > Can you please tell me why is this failing to connect > > I'am running samba on Freebsd 8. > I've pasted the testparm of samba. > > It first gave me unable to connect as a RPC > and now it again gives me error that unknown user or password. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO SETUP MACHINE ACCOUNTS AND NORMAL SAMBA ACCOUNTS to > connect XP PRO Machines./ IF THERE IS ANY PROBLEM WITH smb.conf? > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > server# testparm /usr/local/etc/smb.conf > Load smb config files from /usr/local/etc/smb.conf > Processing section "[homes]" > Processing section "[netlogon]" > Processing section "[Profiles]" > Processing section "[printers]" > Processing section "[tmp]" > Processing section "[public]" > Loaded services file OK. > Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC > Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions > > [global] > workgroup = INET > netbios name = INET > server string = Server > log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m > max log size = 50 > add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd %u > delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel %u > add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd %g > delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel %g > delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/deluser %u %g > add machine script = /usr/sbin/adduser -n -g machines -c Machine -d > /dev/null -s /bin/false %u > logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%U > domain logons = Yes > os level = 65 > domain master = Yes > dns proxy = No > wins support = Yes > winbind trusted domains only = Yes > > [homes] > comment = Home Directories > read only = No > browseable = No > > [netlogon] > comment = Network Logon Service > path = /usr/local/samba/lib/netlogon > guest ok = Yes > share modes = No > > [Profiles] > path = /usr/local/samba/profiles > guest ok = Yes > browseable = No > > [printers] > comment = All Printers > path = /var/spool/samba > printable = Yes > browseable = No > > [tmp] > comment = Temporary file space > path = /tmp > read only = No > guest ok = Yes > > [public] > comment = Public Stuff > path = /home/samba > write list = @staff > read only = No > guest ok = Yes > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------- > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba > -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
