[Samba] Windows XP Machine,
Hello List, I have a odd problem and I should perhaps ask this on msn or something like that :) but I am running a ldc with ldap, everything works like a charm but on one of the machine a newly installed one which is joined to the domain can't for some reason see the files on one machine, now both machines can see shares on other machines but not between each other, does anyone has any idea of what could be causing this? by the way both machines are getting their ips from the same dhcp server so there should not be any conflict there.

Re: [inbox] [Samba] Windows XP machine cannot be accessed
Thanks for the input, folks. The clues you have given have let me fix the basic problem. Previously when I tried manual editing of conf files etc. I was not doing enough. I manually edited fstab and created an auth. file and checked carefully against your model, Geoff. With a mild tweak with webmin, I can now see the XP machine and it autoloads without any intervention from me. As I suspected, it was so basic I was not seeing and doing everything necessary. Mandrake will need to work on their Samba config in teh control panel to make it proof to both newbies and idiots. Now when I get the permisions fully sorted I should be on my way. I must keep a note in case. I think PAM needs a Windows server? I only have a peer to peer network, but again thanks for the ideas.

RE: [Samba] Windows XP machine cannot be accessed
FYI John, If you wish to automount shares when you login, you can try pam_mount. It should be a package on the mdk 10.1 CDs. You can set it to mount windows cifs and smb shares to your mandrake box. It's possible because Linux supports pluggable auth modules(PAM) I used it along with winbind auth to mount all my windows shares from servers at work to my Linux mandrake workstation (laptop) When ever I ssh'd in, the shares mounted. It can be set to mount based on preferred authentication system (local password file, winbind, nis, etc) and protocol. ie. mount windows shares if you login via ssh, or even if you login through the kde desktop (warning: kde requires special files relocated when mounting home directories). Having said that and seeing as how you are new, I believe Geoff's solution is a much easier way to go. You may however wish to read up on pam_mount anyway. For more info do a google on pam_mount Chris -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Try going to the Authentication tab on the WinXP's Local Area Connection Properties dialog screen and disabling the IEEE 802.1x authentication - just for giggles. Clay -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Windows XP machine cannot be accessed
I have a small peer to peer network of 4 machines, WinME, Win2K Pro SP4, Win XP Pro SP2 and Linux Mandrake 10.1 Samba 3.0.10.1. I am pretty new at Linux but have been around computers for a very long time. The Linux installation went smoothly, MDK and KDE3 utilities make it simple for newbies to get things running, so Samba went together quite easily but I now have a problem I have been struggling with for days. All of the Windows machines have no problems accessing shares on each other and Mandrake. The Mandrake machine accesses the WinME an Win2K machines readily, but the WinXP machine is not visible on any utility I have tried. I can ping it OK. I have disabled firewalls etc in case this was the problem but no change. I manually edited fstab and inserted what seemed an appropriate entry for a share on the XP machine. In Konqueror for instance an icon appeared for the share but when clicked up in was empty. I have almost convinced myself that it must be some kind of authentication problem, probably something basic I have overlooked and so simple I cannot see it. Can anybody give me some ideas please?

[Samba] Windows XP machine not connecting to Samba 3.04
Hi, after the installation of Samba 3.04 (upgrade from 3.02) a single XP notebook cannot connect to any share. The log shows these messages: [2004/05/17 11:48:18, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_socket_data(367) read_socket_data: recv failure for 4. Error = Connection reset by peer [2004/05/17 11:48:18, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(801) andreasxp (192.168.1.102) closed connection to service wolfgang [2004/05/17 11:48:18, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(801) andreasxp (192.168.1.102) closed connection to service Daten [2004/05/17 11:50:46, 0] lib/substitute.c:alloc_sub_basic(505) alloc_sub_basic: NULL source string! This should not happen As far as I have understand the problem is on the client site, but there seems to be something on the samba side because before the upgrade the client could connect without any problem. In the same network there are other Windows machines (Win98, W2K, XP), all with the latest updates from Windows Update loaded. This client can connect fine to another Samba server (2.2.8a) in the same network (really it's a VMware virtual machine with Debian 8 on my W2K notebook). Can anyone point me in the direction where to seek? I have full access to the notebook and can do any configuration changes. The notebook is _not_ a part of the Samba owned NT domain (as the normal PCs are). Thank you very much for any help!
