Hi - You're right in saying that i'm not joined to a domain - nor do I wish to be - I just want to be able to see the share (using user level access). I have just turned of requiresignorseal and it has not made any difference. The relevant parts of my smbpasswd:

*smbpasswd*
<snip>
ian:1000:7811449B365C58F693E28745B8BF4BA6:B2CA3D5E470FC029B60537DF5FFBBE7E:[UN ]:LCT-3FF32833

when you say you tried them both, could you be more specific, I have now idea what you typed and no idea what your smbpasswd entries look like.

also did you turn off requiresignorseal in regedit? there's a reg file
with the 2.2.8a distro.

you're obviously not joined to the domain; is this what you are trying to
achieve? or do you simply want to see a share? the former being
athentication against a DC...

Thanks for your reply

I tried both of these to no avail - nothing is recorded in the logs either.

try:

smbpasswd -a -m SHUTTLE$ shuttle$

to add the machine acount

also did you add a user to smbpasswd with

smbpasswd -a userid userpassword


after you created their unix acount?

Okay - I've tried adding machine account as suggested but still no joy -
same symptoms as before.  Also tried changing security to 'share' - this
time I can see the share in windows explorer but it asks for a password
under the username of 'Guest' (greyed out) when i try to access it - no
passwords work (including null).

Make sure the XP box has a machine account on the samba server.

do this by adding a user (however you do it on your host OS) of machine$
(make sure the dollar sign is there)

then you can add this account to samba by doing:

smbpasswd -a -m machine

(note the _lack_ of a dollar sign.  you know this, but replace "machine"
with the actual name of the machine.)

HTH,

Subject: [Samba] XP Pro client cannot access stand-alone linux
samba server


Hi, I am trying to set up my internet connection sharing linux box as a stand-alone samba server. When i try to access the server from a Windows XP Pro client using \\192.168.0.1 i get a dialog box asking for a username and password. I duly enter this and the dialog box immediately re-appears without connecting me to the share. There exists both a samba and linux account with the same password which is also the same as the XP Pro logon.

The XP Pro box is not set up to logon to a domain, both of the
boxes are
on the same workgroup.  I can get samba to work using share-level
security but only for a guest account.

Would appreciate any suggestions

*smb.conf*
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = SAMBA
server string = Samba server in user level
security = users
encrypt passwords = yes
