Windows 7 -Samba Share-Network Access denied

fizeelinux · 02-08-2010, 07:09 AM

Hi all,
I have set up RHEL 5 file server with Winbind and samba services running.I am able to assign and authenticate windows XP users against my RHEL 5 server.No issues.But one or two of my users are using Windows 7 Ultimate edition and they are not able to access my network samba shares.I can view the shares in windows 7 box but trying to access gives me "network access denied error".But i can access the same share in Windows xp machine for the above tested users.Working great but not in windows 7 box.I haven't tested with Vista OS yet.

I tried this but couldn't fix my problem.

Code:

I am using samba-3.0.23c-2 version.Should i need to update this or is there any changes i need to make in windows 7 machine.Thanks in advance

Hi,

'SAMBA' is a great place for information.

Look at 'SMB-HOWTO' plus try 'Get Vista and Samba to work' should help to setup Samba. Along with 'Getting Vista to work with Samba' should provide some background.

Please post your '/etc/samba/smb.conf'?
