[Samba] How to access a share without username/password
I want a Banking Application (GLOBUS) to view images stored in a samba server. I only have provision to supply the IP address and path name of the location of the images.This means that I cannot specifya username/password to GLOBUS.How do I make GLOBUS view this images without supplying a username/password.My sample config file is below.ThanksAbdul# Samba config file created using SWAT # from 128.1.100.67 (128.1.100.67) # Date: 2004/02/26 12:00:05 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = IMSD netbios name = SAMBER-SERVER smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd guest account = samba log level = 3 ldap ssl = no valid users = abdul, Matthew [share] comment = common share path = /usr/shares guest ok = Yes [printer] path = /tmp printable = Yes -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] I am unable to access my shares: Incorrect password or Invalid user name
SAMBER server=3.0.1, Linux server=8.0, Windows Client= win 2000 pro I am a newbie facing problems with my shares. I get Incorrect password or Invalid user name after I enter my user name and password. I have created the username on the my windows machine, my Linux machine and with smbpasswd with same password. when I issue : smbclient //host/share from the Linux machine , it prompts me for password and afterwards it displays the following message: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE A copy of my smb client file is : # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 128.1.100.67 (128.1.100.67) # Date: 2004/01/15 17:33:15 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = IMSD netbios name = SAMBA log level = 3 ldap ssl = no [share1] comment = test share path = /var/log read only = No [globus] comment = globus image directory path = /var/globus-image read only = No I can see the shares (without password) when I set security = share and guest ok = yes. I also noticed through the SWAT interface that smbd is always down even after restarting severally. I also tried starting from the command prompt (nmbd 1st, then follwed by smbd) and I dont get any error message. But it displays not running (smbd only) from SWAT interface. I am really confused. Any help? Abdul -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Incorrect password or unknown username
I am a 1st timer with Samba and I have read recommended documentations for newbies. My problem looks very easy, but I have spent days trying to know what I am doing wrong. My client is win2000 pro. and my samba server is version 3.0 running on Redhat linux 9.0. I can see the Linux box in Network neighbourhood and I can list the test shares I created but I cannot access them. I have put the samba server in same workgroup as my win2000 workstation. The hostname of the samber server is :imsd The following are the error messages I get when I run the some tests contained in the samba docmentation. 1) From the Linux machine running the samba [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# smbclient -L imsd Anonymous login successful Domain=[IMSD] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.1] Sharename Type Comment - --- abdula Disk test share homes Disk IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 3.0.1) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 3.0.1) Server Comment ---- IMSD Samba 3.0.1 IMSDNET1 WorkgroupMaster ---- IMSD IMSDNET1 2) From the Linux machine running the samba. abdul is created as a user on the linux machine and also with smbpasswd command. I get the following when I enter the password. [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# smbclient //imsd/abdul added interface ip=128.1.100.244 bcast=128.1.100.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE 3)From my windows machine, I browse to the samba server, it demands for a username and password and when I enter it I get the following error message: incorrect password or unknown username. A copy of my smb.conf is: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 128.1.100.67 (128.1.100.67) # Date: 2004/01/12 09:16:33 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = IMSD [abdula] comment = test share path = /home/oji/share read only = No guest ok = Yes [homes] valid users = %S read only = No I will appreciate any help Abdul -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
