Samba's running Now I need help with adding users
Hello,
I have managed to Linux and XP to at least see each other from the the XP side anyway. But I shared my CD ROM on the Linux side and XP see's it fine. But when I try to connect to it , now it wants a user name and pw. I think I am suppose to somehow create users in Linux but I am unsure how to do this. I liked the simplicity of setting up the SMB.Conf with little help from a book I used. SO here it is and please help me get to the next exciting stage. Eventually I want everyone to log on to Linux Network and run thier Windows and Internet connection through it. I do have a router that is a Linksys and it is independent of any computers.Linux see it fine with no problems at all. Here is my config file as it is right now. [global] workgroup = workgroup os level = 2 time server = Yes unix extensions = Yes encrypt passwords = Yes map to guest = Bad User log level = 1 syslog = 0 printing = CUPS printcap name = CUPS socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY wins support = yes veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/ domain logons = Yes domain master = Yes add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g nogroup -c "NT Machine Account" -d /dev/null -s /bin/false %m$ [CDROM] comment = Linux CD-RO path = /media/cdrom locking = No preexec = /bin/mount /media/cdrom postexec = /bin/umount /media/cdrom [homes] comment = home_directories valid users = %S browseable = No read only = No create mask = 0640 directory mask = 0750 [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/tmp printable = Yes create mask = 0600 browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers write list = @ntadmin root force group = ntadmin create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 I am sure there is room for improvement here but this is my first try. ikw38 |
howabout smbpasswd -a <username>
try this command
#smbpasswd -a <username> and tell me what happens |
I did that with root and my login and worked like a charm.
Now I am trying to reverse the method and see windoze in Linux but it keeps giveing me a message about "lisa daemon" needs to be activated?? I can not find this to save me. How do I activate this lisa? Thanks ikw38 |
to reverse it, i think u need to use smbclient,
then you can open up nautilius and type: smb://ip.of.win.box try that....i have done it only once and dont remember the exact steps involved to get it to work but i think it's fairly simple, i do remember though that netscape, mozilla and galeon didnt recognize smb:// and it only worked in nautilius (for me anyway). |
LinNeighborhood
try this software
LinNeighborhood u can find its rpm in rpmfind.net |
ok thanks gang. I forgot about LinNeighborhood.
