Samba login problem
Iam using Ubuntu 7.10. I would like to share a usb drive connected to my main desktop with other linux boxes on a wired network. I shared it in "system" and can see the drive on other machines, but when i try to connect, it asks for a username and password. Where do I set this? in smb.conf? Please detail how. I have been using linux for a number of years and can use nano etc. so I'm not a total newbie.
Thanks, David |
Hello David9789,
you can use: Code:
smbpasswd to add a new user "joe" Code:
smbpasswd -a joe i am not sure... but maybe you also need a local user... if this not work... add first a new user joe... to the system and than do this steps... to set a new password for "joe" Code:
smbpasswd joe good luck. Yaniv Ferszt |
