Shawn, to mount a share on a windoze box that is a member of a domain, you have to specify the domain:
As root: mount -t smbfs -o username=sgrover,workgroup=O2S //peon/share /root/peon Or, if you want to connect using a local account on the windoze box, you would use workgroup=peon instead of workgroup=O2S Kevin is right, for samba as a PDC you should use: security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain logons = yes Also you should have a [netlogon] share.

Thanks Kevin. I didn't originally have these values in the smb.conf. They were put in there tonight as I was messing around trying to get things running. As for security=domain, I had it in my head to make my Linux server run as a full NT PDC for my home network, and thus making life easier for my roommates (who still don't know they actually connect to the Internet through my firewall....) But, that's a non-issue now (their puter is busted...) doing the "smbclient -L peon" prompts for password then fails, regardless of what password I give it, or what user name I use. Just for a hoot, I did "smbclient -L snow", and was able to see a list of shares on the Linux server. So, I guess I have some parts of Samba configured right. I'll see how things work after I get my kernel recompiled, and restore my original smb.conf file.

Does the share you're after show up if you do a smbclient -L peon (no username) What happens if you use administrator rather than sgrover to authenticate? Why are you using security = domain? I don't really think there's ever a use for that, except MAYBE (and I doubt it here too) if you're wanting to authenticate to an NT domain. I'd go with security = user. Then get rid of the password server = snow line entirely. For 99% of people, security will always be = user. The other options are only there to be confusing... :) (I learned it the hard way). I'm assuming that you have this box running as your PDC (that's how it's set). If you need "password server" (and I don't think you do), I'd recommend ALWAYS using "= *". This will be easier to maintain down the road, as it will determine who the PDC is based on NMB traffic. On your PDC though, you don't need to specify a password server anyway.
