Re: [Samba] The account is not authorized to login from this station.

I got it working. For some reason SWAT was updating the smbpasswd file 
incorrectly, when I run smbpasswd manually on the machine everything 
works just fine. Thanks for all your help. :-0

I've got an smbpasswd file on the server, do I also need to change 
some configuration on the clients? It still doesn't like any of the 
usernames or passwords that I've setup.

Her's my smb.conf file:

[global]
   workgroup = COMMUNICCI
   server string = Osiris File Server
   encrypt passwords = No
  


This is a *very* bad idea.  Create an smbpasswd file, and set this back
to 'yes'.
Problems caused by this setting include the need to patch every current
microsoft client, and numerous client bugs.
