To all, My samba install (HPUX 10.20) version 1.9.16 works fine for 95 clients, but still does not work for NT clients. I have tried modifying the allow hosts to add everything on our network, and I have added a username map as well as several other changes. When I select the UNIX box from network neighborhood, and select the appropriate directory (share), I am presented with a login box that allows username and password inputs. When I enter an appropriate UNIX login, I get the following error: \\machinename\users is not accessible The account is not authorized to login form this station. If anyone has any ideas here, I would appreciate your input. I have mailed the list earlier and received a few suggestions, none of which seemed to do the trick. Please Help, Todd bedellt@macom.com
\\machinename\users is not accessible The account is not authorized to login form this station. This sounds like the bug/feature introduced from SP3 onwards. Basically, it encrypts all the passwords, which fail when checked against the Unix passwords. There are two possible solutions: 1) Use SMB passwords on the unix box (which means you get separate Samba/Unix passwords) 2) Make a registry change on the NT box I attach the registry change you need to make, should you want to do this.
