Samba 3.5.6 Debian Wheezy guest account mapping for unknown user

Posted 07-08-2013 at 07:52 AM by zhjim

Nother problem that cost me some life time and hair too I'd say. Fiddeling around with samba on Debian wheezy I created a share that should be public accesible. So we call it public. Yes I am an artist and genius when making up names. Anyways as we want the guest account to be allowed we put guest ok = yes inside the config part of the share. Also to be a bit more restrictive I also added valid users = +smbusers (Nother prove of my genuine artistry). The usaual path and other things found there...

If you want to look for compatible smart card readers, check http://wiki.debian.org/Smartcards. For smart cards compatible with opensc, check https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/wik...-USB-tokens%29. You may choose to utilize proprietary smart cards, but this guide only covers opensc-compatible ones.

Updated 07-07-2013 at 12:44 AM by vik

Background: this is for a 64-bit linux system with alsa installed and no pulseaudio. Derived from: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...estingId=78390 and http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...estingId=78500 with a few tweaks for my setup.

Download Neverwinter Online.
