RE: Samba tutorial
I followed your tutorial, using FreeBSD 5.1 the same setup as you describe. When I try to access the samba shares from an NT 4 server, it keeps prompting for username/password. None of the Primary Domain passwords work. If I access the share from a Win2000 machine it works beautifully. Does this have something to do with password encryption? Any ideas how to get around this problem ? thanks, Darryl -Original Message- From: Ruben de Groot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 12:57 AM To: Darryl Hoar Subject: Re: Samba tutorial On Tue, Nov 25, 2003 at 03:16:12PM -0600, Darryl Hoar typed: Thanks it looks informative. Will it work with FreeBSD 4.9 (which is what I have installed) ? The password part seems like you need 5.1 to get it to look to the PDC for passwords. Correct. Samba does run quite well on 4.x, but you'll have to create the windows domain users as (dummy) unix users, since nsswitch.conf doesn't work on 4.x. This makes administering such a box a little redundant (whenever you create a user in the windows domain, you must also create the same user on the samba box.) thanks, Darryl -Original Message- From: Ruben de Groot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 2:43 PM To: Darryl Hoar Subject: Re: Samba tutorial Hi Darryl, I did this on some FBSD 5.1 systems and wrote the following howto: http://www.bzerk.org/documents/ntdomauth/ Maybe it's of some help to you.

Re: Samba tutorial
from an NT 4 server, it keeps prompting for username/password. Have you used the smbpasswd utility to create Samba user accounts on the BSD box? As per: http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/smbpasswd.8.html Ruben was getting at that by suggesting... the windows domain, you must also create the same user on the samba box.)
