mapped drive problems
Hello all,
I have a ftp server running fedora core 3. Most of teh users in this office are running winxp. The ftp directory is mapped to their Y drive. Haven't had any problems, and nothing has changed. The drive shows up. You go to click on it, and you get back the message. Y:\ Is not accessable. Network connection refused. It's not just one system, but it is everyone. Can you please point me in the right direction. Reference: ----------------------------------------------------------- Here's the log file from samba when i try to connect. [2006/05/01 12:25:16, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(648) desk-charlie () connect to service ftparea initially as user exl_staff (uid=504, gid=50 [2006/05/01 12:25:16, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:25:17, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:25:17, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:25:17, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:25:18, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:25:20, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:26:30, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:26:30, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:26:32, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:28:08, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:28:08, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(51) chdir (/ftppub/staff) failed [2006/05/01 12:28:50, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(836) desk-charlie closed connection to service ftparea |
From the looks of the error messages, it looks as if the Samba user has no permissions to access the directory since a string of chdir commands failed. You best clue would to be to login to the Linux box as the Samba user and attempt to "cd" to that directory. If it fails, it a Linux file permission problem. If it succeeds, it a Samba config problem.
