All attempts to connect to our Samba server, share "\data" from any Windows client fails. I'm trying to get samba to prompt the windows user with a login box, have them enter the samba username/password, then head onto the share.
If I use in the address field the following:
\\gaia\data /user:woellki
Try mounting the share by IP address----\\ipaddy\data
a dialog box appears, with the username field greyed out "Gaia\Guest" is shown, with blank password field. I hit cancel and WinXP returns the following message:
Windows cannot find "\\gaia\data /user:woellki". Check the spelling and try again, or try searching for the item by clicking the Start button and then clicking Search.
A valid samba user account exists, which happens to match the linux account. Windows clients are members of the following corporate domain: northgrum.
