I have been trying to get Samba working and I have this question/problem. The server has been assigned the ip address 10.20.0.3. During boot time, Red Hat Linux 6.1, all the messages are Ok. I can ping every computer OK. The apache server runs without a problem. I am signed-on as root. When I issue the command smbclient -L 10.20.0.3 I get the following message/error: Added interface ip=10.20.0.3 bcast=10.20.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: <here I type root's password> session setup failed: ERRsrv - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.) If I press enter when it prompts me for the password I get the following message: Domain=[Home] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.5a] Sharename Type Comment IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba Server) Server Comment SPANKY Samba Server Workgroup Master HOME SPANKY Thanks, Evan Panagiotopoulos Technology, Library and Media Director Poughkeepsie City School District -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

While reading the DIAGNOSIS.txt file I tried the command smbclient '\\spanky\tmp', it prompted me for the password, I typed it in and I got the smb prompt!!!!!!! I am logged as root, and supplied the same password! Oh boy!> Well, this is the second attempt.
