Hi! I just scanned several lists and HOWTOs for the problem with "valid users = %S" in 3.0.1 It worked fine in 2.2.8 but now, when I add this line "valid users = %S" to a share, I cannot log in any more (The system asks me for a password but then denies access). When I use a defined username instead, it works fine. I read the posting in samba-technical from Gerald (Jerry) Carter jerry at samba.org Wed Dec 10 05:14:40 GMT 2003 where he suggests to use 'valid users = %D+%S' instead, but this doesn't work, either. Can anyone give me a hint Many thanks -- Regards ------------------------------- DI Johann Divisch Sysadmin ADV TU Wien A-1040 Wien, Karlsplatz 13 ------------------------------- Tel: (01) 58801-41079 Fax: (01) 58801-41098 ------------------------------- email: jdivisch@zv.tuwien.ac.at -------------------------------
