I'm trying to set up a Samba file server inside of an NT4 domain. I'm
using Samba 3.0.10 My config files are at the bottom of this post.
The server appears on the windows network inside the domain called for
in it's smb.conf. But when you try to access it from any client which
does not have an account on the box it prompts for a user name and
password. When you enter a user name and password of a user on the NT4
domain, you are unable to log in. It feels as if the box is a member of
the domain, but is not getting it's users and groups lists from the
domain controller.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this, and what mechanism handles how
the server gets this info from the domain controller?
The physical share folder is at /mnt/PublicShare with permissions of 777
and owner:group of root:root.
My smb.conf looks like this:
