Hi,
I have 2 machines set up, one with Win95 the other FreeBSD running smbd and
nmbd.
Allthought I can gain access from the Win95 box to the the shares defined
in smb.conf file on the FreeBSD box, I can only do so if 'valid users
root', any other username will get access denied error messages.
Using the username map directive makes no difference to the problem.
I suspect the output of the command 'smbclient -L genesis' (the Win95
box)
might hold the key to the problem but if it does how do I fix it.
Server=[GENESIS] User=[] Workgroup=[WILLEM'S WEB] Domain=[WILLEM'S WEB]
^^no username
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
H Disk SyQuest Drive
IPC$ IPC Remote Inter Process Communication
extract from smb.conf:
[Willem]
comment = Willem's home directory
path = /home/willem
valid users = root #would like this to be 'willem'
map archive = no
preserve case = yes
case sensitive = no
read only = no
writable = yes
printable = no
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Regards Willem
