Please explain more clearly. Are you asking how to set up guest access?

No. There is specific Unix user X, and client uses
mount -t smbfs -o username=X,password=... ... ...
Basically, only user X is supposed to access the samba. I defined security=user.
But the convenient password setup for me would be the unix password of X, not
the separate smbpasswd. Can I tell smb.conf to use /etc/shadow password instead
of separate password defined by smbpasswd ?

[Samba] possible reason for 'ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)' with 'securty = user' and correct username, password ?

2007-05-25 Thread Yakov Lerner

If 'security' is 'user' in smb.conf, and I provide correct username
and password in 'mount -t smbfs -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD ...
' and mount fails with 'ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)', then what can
it be ?

I use nonstandard port ' option port=123 on the smbclient side, and -p
123 on the samba sevrer side, on the smbd command line). Can be this
troublesome ?

Thanks
