Quoting Thomas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hey TSL people,
I'm trying to get Samba to work on Trustix 2.2 but I'm having a very annoying problem. Whenever I try to access a Samba drive my Win XP pops a Login box. This makes it kinda hard to setup network drives, as the drive isn't loaded on boot.
The "funny" thing is that this works perfectly on a ClarkConnect box.
What I've done:
Created a Win XP user called "testsamba" with password "passw". Created a TSL 2.2 user called "testsamba" with password "passw". Converted the Linux user to a Samba user.
Created /home/files for "testsamba" on TSL 2.2
Added the following to my smb.conf
[files] comment = testsamba writable = yes path = /home/testsamba/files available = yes
Restart Samba and VOILA! I can see the the new Samba drive. When I try to access it, Win XP pops a Login box. If I fill out the Login box with "testsamba" and "passw" it fails. If I just hit Enter with blanks filled in, it works.
If I do the EXACT same thing on my ClarkConnect box, it works as intended. I've even tried copying the smb.conf file to see if that helped - to no avail though. The TSL box simply refuses to do this without asking for a username/password.
It is worth noting that I only have to hit Enter once for the Login box. After that the drive is accessible until next reboot. First access = Login box.
I'm about to give up on this one and instead install ClarkConnect.. :o/
Hope someone out there can shed some light on this issue.
Regards, Thomas
Could you please post your entire smb.conf
