if your using win98 i think you have to create the user name and password that win98 use other wins dont need that, also consider david asuncion reply regarding folder permissions.

Hello everyone,

I've turned to Samba to share my MP3 files over our home network since I can't setup Icecast properly. I'm using CentOS and installed Samba last night. I can't seem to get it right. I can see the server in the Network Places in the w1nd0z3 computer now but it asks for a username and password. I tried the usernames in /etc/samba/smbusers but nothing seems to work and also added the ones in the system.

I issued "cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh > /etc/samba/smbpasswd" to encrypt all the passwords in the machine (I turned on encryption for the server) but I still can't go in. I checked /etc/samba/smbpasswd and all it has are several Xs for the corresponding users. Or is it supposed to have Xs since it's encrypted? I also created the directories for the shares.

I also tried SWAT but didn't make changes since the config seemed okay from there.
