It might cause problems in other apps too, but I didn't see the point of
pointing that out since the accounts have already been created using your
organization's standard. It's unlikely you can change any existing
accounts now, although it might be a good idea to adjust the standard for
new accounts.

Re: Re: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine

2002-03-22 Thread Michael Oatman 

That may help if I run a Win2K AS PDC which I'm thinking about doing now...
I'm just running in a workgroup at the moment.

My prob is that once I have browsed to the Linux shares (I can see them),
I cannot access the writeable ones (I *can* access the read-only ones).
It gives me an invalid user/pass error, even though I authenticated as
a valid user just prior.  Maybe there's something wrong with my 
mksmbpasswd command.  I edited the file and took out lines for users 
like root, bin, etc., so that only users allowed to samba were present.
Must I not edit the smbpasswd file?

George, could you send your current smb.conf (without sensitive info) 
for comparison's sake to [EMAIL PROTECTED]?

TIA, Michael

Michael,

In response to your last comment about having to go to \\server\share to
actually connect, after fixing my problem (see my previous email) I am able to
go start->run->\\server and actually see all the shares in there.

Hope this helps.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine

2002-03-21 Thread George Abdo 

You've got it. Just because I was seeing the machine in the "server manager"
didn't mean that it was joined. I was also making another silly mistake: I was
using smbpasswd -j PDC instead of smbpasswd -j DOMAIN.

It is now fixed, and I can browse the samba share.

Also, thanks to anthony grren for his hint about enclosing a split username in
single quotes. It worked, but it seems to cause problems in bash.

Thanks All for your help.

Re: Re: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine

2002-03-21 Thread George Abdo 

I applied the changes: changed the PDC to just the netbios name.

I also logged on to my win PC loally using an account with the same name and
password as my SAMBA server. I was still unable to connect to the SAMBA share
even using \\server\share

One problem I have (may have something to do with it) is our NT Logons are two
names (first name lastname) So mine would be: George Abdo.

I can't create (or don't know howto) a username like that under linux. Also, I'm
not sure if you've noticed, I cannect to windows from Linux (using various
means: termnal and xfce's smb browser) but not the otherway around.

Any more ideas would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine

2002-03-21 Thread Roger Haxton 
Title: RE: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine





I had a similar problem with my XP box at home when I set this up.  


First when I had my 2k server also set-up and did not have samba set-up to authenticate properly to the domain, nothing worked.  

Then when I removed my 2k server and removed my XP box from the domain, I could browse from the XP box to the samba server, but could not get from the samba server to my XP box.  I found under local security policies a setting that said to authenticate users as guest.  I disabled that and all was well.  I think you may also be able to go under My Computer, tools, folder options, view and uncheck use simple file sharing to accomplish the same thing, but I don't know for sure because I didn't find that box until after I had also made the other change.

Subject: Re: Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine



I'm following this thread with interest since I seem to be having 
similar probs getting Samba 2.2.1a to work on RH7.2.


1) Specifically, when I browse (using KDE's Konqueror -- neither Gnome's 
Nautilus nor mozilla seem to be able to smb://) to any one of our WinXP 
boxen (only type) on our internal network, I get a prompt for user/pass 
which I enter successfully, then get displayed all available shares on 
whichever box to which I browse.  So I then click on a share name (for 
which I have access) and I get the error message:
 Could not access 
  
 Invalid user/password combination
This happens immediately after I clicked on a share for which I 
successfully entered a valid user/pass combo.  
Anyone know what's going on?


2) None of the WinXP boxen on our internal network can access any of the 
writeable shares on the RH7.2 box in a workgroup.  The shares are 
browsable, although no valid user/pass combos will authenticate properly.  


This sounds like the same kind of problem George is having.  Why could 
one not browse to \\servername in an attempt to get to 
\\servername\sharename?


TIA, Michael

The password server must use a netbios name, not the FQDN.

Make sure that there is an acount on the Linux system and in the Windows 
domain that matches the username and password that you are trying to use to 
connect to the Samba shared resource. You must also name that resource 
using the servername and the resource name when connecting from a Windows 
machine:  \\servername\sharename

Using just the servername will not work. Each resource has it's own 
connection permissions, so you must tell samba what resource you are trying 
to connect to so that Samba can figure out if you are authorized.

Here is the smb.conf file. I have edited out some of the network details for
privacy.

A domian computer account has been created and added on the domain. I can also

   and I get the correct reply)

Thanks for yor help.
