Hello all,
I have installed samba version 3.3.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 server 32-bit following the documentation https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html Windows and Ubuntu users can see and mount the shares with no problem at all. Mac OS 10.6.x users can connect to samba from terminal using smbclient, but they are refused connection when they try to connect via finder (ie using apple + k). The error Mac users get is “wrong username or password”. However, they can connect via finder only when they prefix the username with any domain name. They can pass any arbitrary domain name before the username to connect to the samba share. To be more clear here is an example smb://server.domain.com/File_share username: arbitrary-domain-name\username Also, Mac OS X users having problem connecting to samba running on Ubuntu server are able to mount the shares from Windows Server 2003 via finder. I have set the following parameters in my /etc/samba/smb.conf file workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu) dns proxy = no security = user encrypt passwords = true passdb backend = tdbsam obey pam restrictions = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s* \spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . map to guest = bad user usershare allow guests = yes [share] comment = Ubuntu File Server Share path = /srv/samba/share browsable = yes guest ok = no read only = no create mask = 0755 Things that I have tried: 1. Adding public = yes in share 2. Setting encryption = false I am new to samba and have been doing research for a long time to get this working. Is there any workaround for the problem that I am facing. I would appreciate all your help.
