Hi,
Download a program called webmin and install it. Then enter the Samba
section and tell it to convert all your local users to Samba users. I didn't
read your whole message...very late night (sowwy), but this was my problem :
10.131.254.10 - Linux Server
10.131.254.1 - Windows 2000 - With Routing Enabled - Connected to
10.131.1.x
10.131.1.x - Local LAN - All Users, no problem, not even a login screen
or a user on the Linux box, just part of the domain
When I tried to access it from my box (10.131.254.1) it would always ask for
a login and would always fail. After I told webmin to convert all my users
to Samba Users it worked !
I think that webmin just adds them to some (smb)users files ?!?
Hope that helps !
Cheers,
Pieter

Subject: could someone give me Samba advice? thanks in advance
Good morning
Can someone take a look at my config files and try to give me an
idea of why I cannot get this to work.
I have 'attached' copies of config files and 'results-output' from
smbclient for your evaluation.
Sorry for thw long message... unavoidable.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.
johnny
I have Samba running on both linux boxes.
1. on the win95 box [vm] I can see the workgroup[mygroup] and I can
see the two linux boxes [fw] and [files] the Samba Server...
but I cannot log in to either linux box using samba from [vm].
and I can see all three machines from the linux boxes as well but am
having trouble loging in to each other.
2. I'm not sure I know how to properly log in to these boxes?
3. Do I need to creat a list of users/ vs/ passwords and put it on
files.abc and somehow make it accessible to the others?
4. when I try to access the linux boxes from the win95 box I get a
login window [re: \\files\IPC$ ]
What does this mean ?
and what do I enter ? Nothing works...
5. on the Win95 box... in Control-Panel/ Network
under 'Identification' I have
Computer Name= vm
workgroup = mygroup
and under Access control I have Checked 'user-leverl'
and I told it to get a list of the users and groups
from 'files.abc' [ but I don't know how to create such a list ? ]
Both smbd and nmbd are running.
usernames and paswords are the same for all boxes.
This is my home LANs design....
