I am running Samba 2.0.7 and it runs as a domain member. Here are the steps I have completed without success: Assuming is the NT username used to log into the NT workstation/PC. 1. Created UNIX user 2. Created UNIX directory /usr/users//input 3. Appended following line to a user name mapping file defined in smb.conf with the parameter "username map = ...": = Note: The user name mapping file already contained an entry for another user and the one above was appended to the file. 4. Added the following to smb.conf: [] comment = 'etc' path = /usr/users//input valid users = public = no writable = yes printable = no 5. Restarted the samba daemons. Can anyone spot what the problem is? Have I missed out a particular step? In desperation I tried adding to the samba password file by running smbpasswd but it would appear this user is already a member. This I concluded from the fact that I typed when first asked for the existing password and when I entered the new password twice the following messages were displayed. "error connecting to #.#.#.#:# (Connection refused) unable to connect to SMB server on machine #.#.#.#. Error was : code 0. Failed to change password for statdat" Note the # symbols represent numbers which I have physically replaced with #. I believe they are addresses of some sort.
