-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Actually you do need to worry about connecting as a user because most of the samba installs I have encountered do not allow guest or non authenticated users.
Also, accounts usually have to be added to the samba via the smbpasswd - -a command (just because a user has a shell account does not neccesarily mean that they have a samba account). Also, root is usually banned. Just humor me and tell me what happens when you try to connect with -U, don't forget the // in front of the hostname. Also attach the relevant logs from /var/log/samba/ on both the client and the server. The logs are your friend. Others have asked for the smb.conf which is also a good thing. One more question for you, how was samba configured? By hand, with SWAT, YaST (evil) etc...
