Is there a way to connect to Samba shares in Win 2k without the use of a primary domain controller? We have tried and get to the point where we can see the shares on the network but when an attempt to connect is made (ie ID and password entered) the connection fails. It continues to ask for a password. Thanks for any help you can give.
