By Default Vista clients expect that SMB connections will use NTLMv2
only. You could set the Vista client local security policy to "Send LM &
NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated".

Subject: [Samba] Windows Vista password dialog keeps coming up

Hi,

I have come to my wits end again (lately, it's a very short trip).  I
have been trying to connect to Samba 3.0.21b but Windows keeps throwing
up the logon dialog.  I'm using "Map network drive" to try to mount this
share.

It seems the problem is only on the Windows side since I have tested the
connection through the Unix account.  Both user id and password work
fine.  I've tested it through the command line on the Unix server using
"smbclient //cva/cva_images -U cva" and it works fine there since it
gives me the smb prompt and I can execute commands (ls to look at the
directory, etc.).

For some reason I cannot authenticate through Windows (Vista by the
way).

I have 2 other accounts and they work fine.  Anything you see in the
file that may be something that is stupid please point it out.
SMB/NetBIOS, etc. is all relatively new to me.  BTW, I've tried it
without valid users and it doesn't work.

The "images" and "bernardy_images" mounts work fine.  No authentication
problems.


smb.conf content:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.1.103 (192.168.1.103)
# Date: 2008/01/24 15:29:49
