Hi all. I'm using samba-1.9.17p1-4.i386.rpm on Linux 2.0.31, with NT 4.0 workstations, without the SP3 patch. Using "smbclient '\\APPS\TMP' -U steve" I can connect to the samba server, as steve, but the password always fails. On the NT 4.0 workstation box I seem to have the same results. I can browse the available list of shares, but can't use any but the ones that don't require any password. Can someone tell me why? How was that RPM compiled? Was it compiled with shadow support? I have tried both ways, but can't get either to work.. I'm really looking forward to hearing from someone who has gotten this to work.. It wasn't this difficult the last time I did this.. Thanks, Dave

I also can't log in from Win95 computers. My smb.conf is the one that follows the Samba 1.9.17p1 RPM, with the specified modifications for user level security... :)avid <>< -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I am trying to backup some files to an NT workstation from a samba server. The samba server provides domain logon, file, print serving for the NT workgroup. Is there anyway to include something like smbclient \\machine_name\backup_share -N -c "put backupfile.tar.gz" and use the username/password from smbpassword to authenticate the request? I would like to set it up as a cron job without having the password in the script. ( I need a workaround until the backup tape drive comes in.) The NT station is a member of the Samba Domain - but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Thanks Dan
