If you double check your smb.conf file, and check your 'security = ' setting. If it is not set to guest, then your blank query shouldn't work. Pass it -Uuser% (It'll prompt for pass). be sure that user has a password in the smbpasswd database. set it by 'smbpasswd -a user'. Ensure that root has one too, for security, different than the main root. Hope that helps. -- Scott Paul Robertson http://students.cs.byu.edu/~spr/ GnuPG FingerPrint: 09ab 64b5 edc0 903e 93ce edb9 3bcc f8fb dc5d 7601
