Okay, i've been pulling my hair out (there's not much left either, but i
digress)...
I started from a very blank smb.conf for one...
I noticed that in gnome now if i restart samba, i have to disconnect and
reconnect the drive otherwise i get an error saying:
Could not open location 'smb://MACHINE/PATH'
no data available
work around for that issue (if it is a new issue) is to disconnect and
reconnect the mount (linux at least - haven't tried windows, hope you don't
have to do that there).
==============
$ testparm -s /etc/samba/smb.conf
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384)

Processing section "[printers]"
Loaded services file OK.

==================
even with that (which is pretty much empty!) if i restart the service,
sometimes i get 'Password required' prompt for a drive i've already
remembered the password to...
once its in that state, smbclient does:
smbclient -L \\\\MACHINE -U rolfy
Enter rolfy's password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option
========
syslog and daemon.log basically has just the 'assuming -D option' message
did a grep in /var/lib/samba, and passdb.tbd does contain my username...
so i enabled the user with smbpasswd -e, but that didn't help.
I then added, and it's good to go again....
I'm not sure if this gives more information than was already here, but
hopefully it stops someone else taking these same steps...
