 Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

Why would access be denied?

Could it perhaps be a problem of upper/lowercase in the name or password?
Or trying to access the wrong windows domain controller? (I recall vaguely
that NT4 had something like that, perhaps that is a Win2k thing too.)

There must be a setting I'm missing on the win2k box.

From win to lin is working fine.

Lee, If I understand this correctly, Windows is not authenticating the Linux users, so this could be due to a number of things.

1) SMB4K is using the user 'guest' as a default, but the guest user in Windows is disabled by default,

2) SMB4K is using the right user and password, but upper/lower case doesn't match what you have on the Windows box,

3) SMB4K is using the right credentials completely, but Windows has not been configured to give access to those users,

4) All those users who will be accessing a specific share on the Windows box must not only be present on that Windows box, but you must also give them access to that specific share. Check the advanced settings for whichever share they belong to. You'll have to do this for each individual share on the Windows box,

5) Windows is setup as a Domain Controller (PDC) and none of the Linux PC's are requesting access to the Domain, therefore, Windows is not granting them access to the shares. If you don't need a Domain Controller, crank Windows down to a simple PC or server and forget about the Domain Controller - it's usually used by larger businesses which have a large number of users.

6) Mars and Venus are NOT in proper alignment and your Kharma is all bad. Forget the whole sharing problem, breathe in through your mouth and out through your nose, pour yourself a nice cup of Ginseng tea and enhance your calm. Either that or take the day off and go see a good movie.

Hope one of those works for you! Grin!
