I am using the same box to run Samba and run the smbclient. I am trying to setup a directory on my Linux box that Windows users can put files in (overwrite too). I want them to do it as guest and not have to login. The share shows up: # smbclient -L //JAMES Password: Domain=[JAMES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- dropbox Disk IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba) Domain=[JAMES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24] Server Comment --------- ------- Workgroup Master --------- ------- LOCKIENET JAMES # smbclient //JAMES/dropbox Password: Domain=[JAMES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24] Connection to J___ failed # smbclient //JAMES/dropbox Password: Domain=[JAMES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24] Connection to q%n_ failed # smbclient //JAMES/dropbox Password: Domain=[JAMES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24] Connection to @__ failed
