You are running a very old build which has some serious issues as far as SMB service is concerned. So, you need to upgrade to the latest available development release, otherwise you would run into other issues like SMB service hanging.
Second, if you don't have a local Administrator user on your Solaris box, why are you surprised by NO_SUCH_USER error? How do you expect the server should authenticate your connection? Even on Windows in workgroup mode you need to have local users on the Windows system in order to authenticate the connections unless you're using the Guest account. So, in workgroup mode you need to have local users in Solaris in /etc/passwd and then use smbpasswd to create SMB password for those users which are stored in /var/smb/smbpasswd, this includes Administrator (with captical A since Solaris user names are case-sensitive) Afshin On 04/15/10 01:53 PM, CD wrote:
Thanks for replying. Usually, you get a pop-up, asking for username and password when accessing a share on windows. This does not happen. What I get, is a time-out msg in windows, and the smbLogon-msg on my server. Why is the server denying access based on hostname/username, and not prompting me with a login-box, as it should? When I read the cifs admin-guide, the stuff about adding groups and members with 'smbadm' seemed to be related to running in domain-mode, which I'm not. I'm running the 2009.06-release.
