Problems to access the Suse Linux7.3Samba server from Wins98 client
 

Hi,

I 've encounted the problem to access to Suse Linux7.3 samba server from a windows98 client. When attempting to log in on the windows98 client, I got the error message said "the domain password you supplied is not correct, or access to your logon server has been denied".

I did do Samba configuration and everything was set to the best of my knowledge. Please help.

Thanks in advance.

don't set a domain logon server
use security=share

Thanks for your response. I 've changed the setup as suggested but, it does not work.

wait. i haven't read your post carefuly and i thought u want to mount a share from linux .
first see if u have an NT domain controller and log on to it first .
can u send me ur smb.conf so i can check it ?

Hi Mircea,
Thanks for your response. I 've experienced technical problem. When trying to copy the smb.conf to a disk from my Linux server, I then was unable to view the file on my Wins XP (it does not show on my screen ). smb.conf file contains a very long information so it is very time consuming to type them all in and send it to you.

One more thing I wanted to mention it to you is:
when I tried listing the shares available on my server by issuing this command:

smbclient -L denver

(denver is my hostname)

then the error message appeared:

"added interface ip: 192.168.0.1 bcast = 192.168.0.255 nmask = 255.255.255.0
session request to denver failed (not listening for calling name)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (not listensing for calling name).

I will email you my smb.conf file very soon as I figure out how to transfer this file from my Linux server to floppy disk and be able to view it on my Wins XP.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Again, thanks for your reponses.
