New Samba user can't access shares

Code:
# path = /data/HR All is good for all users except for zippy, who was added later. Zippy is unable to successfully authenticate to connect to the Samba fileshare. Zippy is however able to login via NIS, which confirms that his server account is operational and working fine. When he tries to login to the fileshare, the following entry appears in /var/log/samba/log.zippy Code:

It's been a while since I did any of this, but you used to have to run smbpasswd -a zippy (as root), after adding him as a unix user, which you've done.
I have an idea that Samba has changed recently though. Best check the tutorials on their site. |

Anyway, I used smbpasswd as a workaround, since it enabled me to add the user. I grabbed the user and asked her to enter her password directly. I'll consider this job done! :-) Thanks for your help. |
