RE: [expert] empty smb passwords?
Pardon me for being confused. I have two smb servers and I was using the Slackware one to try out the commands I was giving you. If you still have this commented out in smb.conf: # Uncomment this if you want a guest account, you must add this to /etc/passwd # otherwise the user "nobody" is used ; guest account = pcguest then add a line to /etc/smbpasswd: nobody:99:NO PASSWORDX:NO PASSWORDX:[NU ]:LCT-38E16D9D: Now try: smbclient //i7500/xfer -U nobody -N This works for me ( 'cept I use //bugsbunny/Apps). If it works for you, then change schellenberger:503 to look like nobody. Hope this solves it, Bill -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Brian T.
