Subject: Access Problem connecting from windows 2000 client to Samba UNIX server Share

On friday we changed our smb.conf file to test the security model that uses DOMAIN authenticacion. It worked fine testing two seperate usernames from Multiple Workstations connecting to a WORLD access share on the SAMBA server.

 

I have to say nothing has changed at all since friday, apart from the weekend :) and we now get this MS error message when trying to connect the same share again from WINDOWS:

 

"The account is not authorized to log in from this station"

 

Just to confirm that on both WorkStations no network shares existed when we tried again today?

 

I did find this and tried it also, it didn't make any difference:
