Hi
I'm not sure if this will help but this is how I found to resolve the
problem.
I had to run the following commands to allow the samba traffic to pass
thru my firewall:
Ipchains -F input
Ipchains -F output
Ipchains -P input ACCEPT
Ipchains -P output ACCEPT
I'm now able to see the samba server in My Network Places and click to
browse the samba shares, so it appears to be working fine. The only
problem I have is that I'm still unable to access the home folder and my
folder. The homes folder tells me access is denied and my folder prompts
me for my login credentials which aren't being accepted. Yet I created
another folder and shared it and I can access it fine. Kinda stumped on
this. If anyone can tell me if I need to modify the permissions on these
folders and what they should be I'd appreciated it. I also can't seem to
figure how to make it so that my user account has the same permissions
as either super user or root, or something similar to a Domain or
Enterprise Admin. I'm the only one using, sharing, and accessing files
on these boxes so I want the maximum privilages.
HTH
TIA

Subject: [Samba] Problems connecting to samba shares from w2k or XP
system after configuring smb.conf file...
I modified my smb.conf file according to an old doc I found online and
I'm having problems logging in from either of my XP or NT boxes to
access the shares on the linux box. I can see the samba linux server
in My Network Places. I get the following error if trying to connect
after navigating to it from My Network Places: \\lnxwebsrvr is not
accessible. You might not have permissions to use this network
resource
If I try to map a network drive from an XP box I get prompted for a
username and password, yet it doesn't accept the credentials after I
enter them. It constantly prompts me for the password in this manner:
Connecting to lnxsrvr
Username: lnxsrvr\user1
Password: **
I used SWAt to make the necessary modifications which were to: Add my
domain to workgroup Add server name to server description
Uncommented encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file =
/etc/samba/smbpasswd
Changed browseable setting to yes under share definitions
Added a user to the smbpasswd file - smbpasswd -a user1
Made sure the smb nmbd services were running
Created the same account and passwords on both the lnxsrvr and NT2000
domain
Can someone tell me what it is I'm missing here?
Again my goal is to simply have one share on the linux box that I
alone will access to place files in. I'll then log in to the linux
server and place these files in my web folder directory to be
published. At this point I'm not tryiing to configure this server as a
smaba pdc or do a lot of file transfer between my domains.
Any responses are appreciated
