intermittent login failures (Win95/Samba 1.9.18p10)
We are using Windows 95 OSR 2 clients here in our lab in conjunction with Samba 1.9.18p10 on Linux kernel 2.0.35. We are getting intermittent login failures that I can't figure out. The user will type their username and password in, hit OK, and the system will respond, "The domain password you supplied is not correct, or access to your logon server has been denied." If the user simply hits OK again (without changing entries), within 2 or 3 tries, they will be authenticated successfully. I don't know what to look for here. Can anyone help? here's a dump of my smb.conf (from testparm): # Global parameters debuglevel = 2 syslog = 1 syslog only = No protocol = NT1 security = USER max disk size = 0 lpq cache time = 10 announce as = NT encrypt passwords = No update encrypted = No getwd cache = Yes read prediction = No read bmpx = Yes read raw = Yes write raw = Yes use rhosts = No load printers = Yes null passwords = No strip dot = No bind interfaces only = No networkstation user login = No password server socket options = TCP_NODELAY netbios name netbios aliases = athens smbrun = /usr/bin/smbrun log file = /var/log/samba/log.smb config file = /etc/smb.conf.%U smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd hosts equiv preload server string = File Server (Students; Lilly Lab) printcap name = /etc/printcap lock dir = /var/lock/samba root directory = / default service message command = /bin/mail -s 'Message from %f on %m' root < %s ; rm %s dfree command passwd program = /usr/bin/smbpasswd passwd chat = *old*password* %o\n *new*password* %n\n *new*password* %n\n *changed* passwd chat debug = No valid chars workgroup = CTSLILLY username map character set logon script = %m.bat logon path = \\%L\profiles logon drive logon home = \\%L\profiles remote announce remote browse sync homedir map announce version = 4.2 max log size = 50 mangled stack = 50 max mux = 50 max xmit = 65535 max packet = 65535 name resolve order = wins bcast host packet size = 65535 password level = 0 username level = 0 keepalive = 0 deadtime = 5 time offset = 0 read size = 16384 shared mem size = 102400 coding system client code page = 850 os level = 35 max ttl = 14400 max wins ttl = 259200 min wins ttl = 21600 lm announce = Auto lm interval = 60 dns proxy = Yes wins support = No wins proxy = No wins server = <another box> preferred master = Yes local master = Yes domain master = Yes domain logons = Yes browse list = Yes unix realname = Yes NIS homedir = No unix password sync = No time server = No ole locking compatibility = Yes printer driver file = /home/samba/printers/printers.def # Default service parameters comment copy include exec postexec root preexec root postexec alternate permissions = No revalidate = No default case = lower case sensitive = No preserve case = Yes short preserve case = Yes mangle case = No mangling char = ~ browseable = Yes available = Yes path username guest account = guest invalid users valid users admin users read list write list volume force user force group read only = Yes max connections = 0 min print space = 0 create mask = 0744 force create mode = 00 directory mask = 0755 force directory mode = 00 set directory = No status = Yes hide dot files = Yes delete veto files = No veto files hide files veto oplock files guest only = No guest ok = No print ok = No postscript = No map system = No map hidden = No map archive = Yes locking = Yes strict locking = No share modes = Yes oplocks = Yes only user = No wide links = Yes follow symlinks = Yes sync always = No strict sync = No mangled names = Yes fake oplocks = No printing = bsd print command = lpr -r -P%p %s lpq command = lpq -P%p lprm command = lprm -P%p %j lppause command lpresume command queuepause command queueresume command printer printer driver = NULL printer driver location dont descend magic script magic output mangled map delete readonly = No dos filetimes = Yes dos filetimes = Yes dos filetime resolution = No fake directory create times = No [homes] comment = Home Directory exec = /usr/bin/quota -u %u | /usr/bin/gawk '/hda/ {print "You are curre ntly using", $2, "Kilobytes of disk space."; print "Your total storage allotment is", $4, "Kilobytes."}' | /usr/bin/smbclient -M %m -I %I -U root& browseable = No path = /home/%u/winhome read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 [netlogon] comment = Initialization scripts root preexec = echo set USER=%u > /netlogon/%m.bat ; cat /netlogon/start up.bat >> /netlogon/%m.bat browseable = No path = /netlogon locking = No [profiles] path = /home/%U/settings read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes
