AW: some general (samba) questions

2000-10-10 Thread Christian Schoenebeck
I did as you told me, but it doesn't work. 
The user's line also doesn't have the X... part, but just any other types.
Do I have to delete the user and recreate him to get him work with an empty 
password?

Is it possible to create a samba-user with an empty password? Because if I 
try so with smbpasswd the program denies the change.

Edit /etc/samba/smbpasswd and change the user's line from
bob:3000:::[U 
]:LCT-363F96AD:
to
bob:3000:NO 
PASSWORDX::[U 
]:LCT-363F96AD:

Sorry - I should have said... the line must contain NO PASSWORDXX -- 
and there must be 21 Xs after, then the second lot of Xs there must be 32.
