I went ahead and made that change to smb.conf as you suggested. As far as
the encryption settings in windows, I have not made any changes to those.
Just a thought. I used smbpasswd to create the samba user 'jason'.
however, my Windows XP user is 'Jason' Is it case sensitive or would that
even matter.

Hi,
did you changed the encryption-settings in windows xp?
just look under controll-panel - local security policies...
just a hint:
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
path = /home
read only = No
change the path to following: path = /home/%u
the %u will bei expanded to your account name ...then you can delete the
myshare section...

Just another easy try, did you install SP2 on XP? Is the firewall on?
Cheers

Hi, it could be a stupid thing to try, but I was thinking you could
try to connect using net use. This way you provide credential even
if you're not prompted.
net use Z: \\ipsambaserver\sharename /USER:jason password:yourpassword
Have a nice day

My Windows XP account name is Jason with the same password that I
use for samba.
I do not see anywhere in windows where I can configure anything.
When I go into My Network Places on Windows XP and choose View
Workgroup Computers. I see the samba server icon. When I double
click it it does not give me any prompt for a username and
password. It just pops up that error message that I pasted in my
initial email. If there is an area in Windows XP that I need to
configure. Please let me know
Jason

I just created the samba user 'jason' now. However, it never
prompts me to enter in a username or password. Is there some
security setting that I need to enable on the samba side to make
it prompt me when I double click on the icon in Windows XP?

I am trying to setup a samba server on Redhat Fedora 2 and

This samba server is a standalone server. I can see it in the

\\Samba is not accessible. You might not have permission to
use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this

Here is my smb.conf file that I created using SWAT. Can anyone
help me?
