[Samba] annoying authentication failure problem: sambatest[hostname]
Hello, I have a little problem which appeared when I installed first 2.2 generation sambaserver on linux and same effect when updated 2.0.3 to 2.2.2 on hp-ux. The actual problem is that my security servers log (NT4 server) get's failure message every time someone connects to samba share which is quite log and it get's frustrating to search real information from logs when this failure message fills log. Fortunately the service works fine and this problem is transparent to a user but bothers administration... If someone would have a tip to remove this feature it will be highly appreciated. about authentication settings security=server password server=[NT4 servername] which is also pdc the error message from nt eventviewer security log: Event Type: Failure Audit Event Source: Security Event Category: Logon/Logoff Event ID: 529 Date: 29.5.2002 Time: 12:32:50 User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Computer: [COMPUTERNAME] Description: Logon Failure: Reason: Unknown user name or bad password User Name: SAMBATEST[SAMBASERVERNAME] Domain: CIMCORP Logon Type: 3 Logon Process: KSecDD Authentication Package: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0 Workstation Name: \\[SAMBASERVERNAME] Best regards, Toni Niemi
