Jerry, > Are you sure? Yes, I've double checked, plus installed samba-3.0.5rc1 to be sure. I'm having problems authenticating empty user from W2k machines.

Currently only guest logins work, anonymous work only from UNIX clients i.e. both cmds work ok: smbclient //server/share -U% smbclient //server/share -N But, W2k clients can't login just by pressing OK button in network login prompt (empty user, empty pass) - only by specifying nobody or guest as username. === smb.conf === security = user guest account = nobody null passwords = true min passwd length = 0 [pub] path = /home/samba/pub write = no public = yes > What is happening in the SMBsessetup&X exchange? What debug information would you like me to provide? tcpdump or something else? Please clarify. > 'map to guest = bad user' doesn't do what you want ? Not quite. Currently I use it as a workaround, but in this case samba doesn't ask for a password - it just compares with currently logged in user credentials on Windows workstation and if user is unknown maps it to guest. But I need it to ask for a password if user credentials are not valid and to accept empty user (with empty pass) mapping it to a guest user. Samba2 had such behavior, but samba3 doesn't. -- Thanks, Vlad Borisoff -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
