I just tried your config file and it seems to go a little further... it did find the smbpasswd file
thks very much i now have a message stating that the account is not allowed to loggin from that workstation it is quite stranged because i did added a machine$ account ... is there a way to tell samba from witch machine the user can logon? |
If you don't have Webmin installed go here www.webmin.com and get it.
Then follow this http://www.webmin.it/webmin/samba-howto.html to the tee and you will have a "mapped" linux drive on your Linux pc in about 5 minutes FX |
EEEEEEK sorry that suppose to be mapped linux drive to your XP machine. (And I even previewed it too. LMAO)

i haven't winxp clients and works fine, but i find this for winxp clients, hope this help you: http://xp-samba.linuxgod.net/Samba.php
|
if you have redhat try to find the file: WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg in /usr/share/doc/samba-version/docs/Registry/ and fix your xp clients ;)
|
It seems that the problem is more basic than that aiguartua...
I did install webmin and i am reading the HOWTO link thks FXRS again i ended up bugging here: "22. Open up a virtual terminal if you're running X windows or log into your Samba Server if you're running Webmin remotely. Type in: “smbpasswd” username where username is a valid user on your samba server. You'll be prompted for a password and to re-authenticate the password by retyping it. It's recommended that you use the same password that you would to log into the server to keep things easier to manage, but it isn't necessary. Running “smbpasswd” will create an authentication file for Samba to check when you log in to the server from a Windows computer. " i try creating a brand new unix user and convert user into samba user: I see the users it looks ok but when i try smbpasswd (username) i get : Failed to find entry for user x Failed to modify password entry for user x |
By the way: i did changed that key previously, it is in one of the howto.
I just double checked: requiresignorseal = 0 just as stated |
ok, for create machine trust accounts:
(note: you can add a group uf machines: groupadd something) 1.- /usr/sbin/useradd -g something -d /dev/null -c "machine nickname" -s /bin/false machine_name$ 2.- passwd -l machine_name$ (is lower case L not 1) 3.- smbpasswd -a -m machine_name for create user account: 1.- useradd -g some -c "user name" -s /sbin/nologin user 2.- passwd user 3.- smbpasswd user I hope you haven't problems with this |
the last line correct is :
3.- smbpasswd -a user |
Yes everything works fine, all commands are processed correctly.
but after, i try login in, i've got an access denied... |
did you apply the patch to winxp?
|
I am presently trying the /usr/share/doc/samba-version/docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt and fallowing the steps, i should be able to do smbclient -L (server name) from the server and get a list of shares...
i might have a clue here... i have a reply after it did asked for a password: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE |
some new versions of samba use smbadduser to add the user account, try it after adduser
useradd linuxuser:winuser |
sorry, is smbadduser linuxuser:sambauser you can use the same username
|
i tried it with an existing account and i've got :
ERROR: userx is already in /etc/samba/smbpasswd SKIPPING... and i have a user denied message when trying to connect from the workstation. :-( i tried by creating a brend new user useradd usery passwd usery password: yyyyy smbadduser usery:usery New SMB password: yyyyy Password changed for usery -it added fine... i have a user denied message when trying to connect from the workstation. :-( |
