You didn't by any chance enable clear text passwords so you could connect to a previous version of Samba VMS? If so, you need to disable them.

Hi again. Well, now I think I'm running out of ideas. Does *anyone* has a Win98 client connecting succesfully to a Samba 2.2.4 server ? On a DEC AXP 2000 model 300 ? What did you had to do after the compile/link/install phases ? Is there anything in the SMB.CONF that is mandatory on VMS ? The things I'v changed are : - Added/changed the "workgroup" and "netbios name" entries. - Corrected the "printcap name" entry. - Changed "null passwords" to "yes". - Added "dns proxy = no" - Checked that the guest account ("samba__guest") exists and have a writeable home directory. - I have not touched the [homes] or [printers] sections. - Added a [dist] and a [tmp] share. When I do "NET VIEW \\my_server, I can see that the SMBD process working 5-10 sec, then I get some error on the client, such as "network service unavailable" or something similar. A few notes, Is the password the client send to the server case sensitive ? My PC user is "Janne", but the user in SMBPASSWD.DAT is (when using DUMP) "janne" in all lowercase. Is this of any importance ? Anything special that must be loaded in network part of the client ? I'v tried to add NetBEUI, but saw no change. There must be something fundamentional wrong here ! This is my SMB.CONF file, I have deleted all commented lines : [global] workgroup = OSSBY netbios name = OSSBY1 dead time = 10 map archive = no printing = bsd printcap name = /SYS$SPECIFIC/TCPIP$LPD/TCPIP$PRINTCAP.DAT load printers = yes status = yes print command = print %f/queue=%p/delete/passall/name="""""%s""""" lprm command = delete/entry=%j security = user default service = default create mode = 0777 null passwords = yes dns proxy = no guest account = samba__guest log level = 0 log file = /samba_log/log.%m socket options = TCP_NODELAY share modes = no [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no read only = no create mode = 0750 [printers] comment = All Printers path = /dsa1/pcfs_spool/default browseable = no printable = yes public = yes writable = no create mode = 0700 [tmp] comment = Temporary file space path = /dkb300/samba_temp read only = no public = yes user = JANNE [dist] path = /dist/000000 public = yes only guest = yes writable = yes printable = no Best Regards Jan-Erik Söderholm. -----Original Message----- From: Jan-erik Söderholm (QAC) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: den 25 november 2002 14:00 To: Samba VMS Subject: Initial Samba 2.2.4 problems. Hi. Last evening (well, night) I installed the Samba 2.2.4 source package on a DEC 2000 model 300 (EV4/150Mhz "Jensen") with VMS 7.3, TCPIP 5.1-3, 128 Mb, DECC V6.2-003. The compile/link went without any errors (but took > 3h). I'v a Win98 (not SE or ME) client to test with. Nothing but the server and this PC on the "net" using a simple 4 port minihub. TELNET, FTP and so on works just fine. Checked netmap and broadcast address. They are OK. I can't "browse" the server. It doesn't shows up in the Windows Explorer Network tree. Doing "NET VIEW \\server" gives "Error 86: wrong password..." After adding "log level = 10" to SMB.CONF this command gives "Error 54: The network is busy..." and the server is doing a lot of DIRIO. Is this server too slow for "log level = 10" ? I'v tried to add my passwork using SMBPASSWD. No chnage. There must be some easy steps like "How to verify and test your new SAMBA VMS installation" somewere. I'm lost... A question, is Frontport still needed for 2.2.4 ?? Any thoughts or tips ?
