** Description changed: What is expected to happen: On the Ubuntu 16.04 samba server with hostname HOSTNAME log in as first user created when installing USERNAME with password PASSWORD > create a new folder via nautilus (no gksudo) called test > secondary click test > Properties > tab Local Network Share > check "Share this folder" > Share name: test > other checkboxes unchecked > click button "Create Share" On another Ubuntu 16.04 client click Places > Network > Windows Network > WORKGROUP > HOSTNAME > test > in the new connection window it notes at top: Password required for share test on HOSTNAME to the right of "Connect As" click radio button "Registered User" > put in Username field USERNAME > put in field Domain WORKGROUP > put in field Password PASSWORD > click radio button Forget password immediately > Connect and it does so. What happens instead is the connection window comes back up, but this time the "Connect As" radio button is now on Anonymous (Default) and everything else is grayed out. Hitting the X to close the window intermittently shows: Unable to access location Failed to mount Windows share: Invalid argument The only way to allow the share to be connected is if one clicks on the server the checkbox "Guest access (for people without a user account)". This prevents easily implementing secure and authenticated data transfers between server and client. - Attempting to smbclient notes: + Attempting to connect via Windows 10 client notes Access Denied. + + Attempting to smbclient via the Ubuntu 16.04 client notes: smbclient -I IPADDRESS -W WORKGROUP -U USERNAME -D test -P PASSWORD -d 4 lp_load_ex: refreshing parameters Initialising global parameters rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384) Processing section "[global]" doing parameter workgroup = WORKGROUP doing parameter server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu) doing parameter dns proxy = no doing parameter log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m doing parameter max log size = 1000 doing parameter syslog = 0 WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated doing parameter panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d doing parameter server role = standalone server doing parameter passdb backend = tdbsam doing parameter obey pam restrictions = yes doing parameter unix password sync = yes doing parameter passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u doing parameter passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . doing parameter pam password change = yes doing parameter map to guest = bad user doing parameter usershare allow guests = yes pm_process() returned Yes tdb(/var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb): tdb_open_ex: could not open file /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb: Permission denied Could not open tdb: Permission denied Failed to open /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb ERROR: Unable to open secrets database It is confirmed the file /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb exists on both server and client, and the permissions for this file have not been adjusted in anyway.
