Hello,
My name is Shaun Bramley and I am currently having
trouble accessing my Samba share.
System 1: Red Hat 7.3
Samba version = whatever is shipped with
RH7.3
System 2: Windows 2000 SP2
The Problem:
I am currently unable to access my Samba shares
with my windows 2000 machine. Currently I can view the RH7.3 machine on
teh network through 'Network Neighbourhood'. However when I select the
RH7.3 machine, I am prompted for a username and password. It appears as
though any valid Linux and windows username/password combination I use never
grant me access to the system. The prompt returns with the message
"Incorrect password or unknown username for \\Linux" (Linux is the name of my
linux box.
Valid Windows 2000 users:
- shaunb
- administrator
- guest
Valid Linux users
- Shaun
- Shea
- Markus
- root
Copy of my smb.conf file:
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You
should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too # many!) most of which are not shown in this example # # Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) # is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a # # for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you # may wish to enable # # NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm" # to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors. # #======================= Global Settings ===================================== [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or
Workgroup-Name

Description field
server string = Samba Server # This option is important for security. It allows
you to restrict
# connections to machines which are on your local network. The # following example restricts access to two C class networks and # the "loopback" interface.
