I setup my Linux system for Samba, I can see it from 95 and 98 machines, but am unable to log in to the system. I've even tried logging in as defined users in the smbusers file, and it still won't let anyone login. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff
I have installed the samba server 2.0.0 on a Solaris 2.6 sparc amchine. The security is user and I am trying to create smb users. Could you please help me about it. Regards Kostas Rekatsinas
Hello,
I have a windows 2000 user who is say logged in as user paul
with password sunny and has access to certain samba shares on a linux
server. Most people in the office knows paul password for whatever
reason but paul wants to have his own private share only accessable to
him with a password that he only knows. So I set up another user on the
linux box called paul2 with a new password. Paul now tries to access the
private share logged in as paul on his windows machine and gets prompted
for a username and password. So paul types in paul2 and the new password
and gets the message "the credentials supplied conflicts with an
existing set of credentials". I need paul logged in as paul on the
windows machine to have access to paul2 stuff without having to create a
new user or log out of paul on the windows machine. Please help, Chris.

Please help, Chris.I know this problem from NT: NT can only connect to one server as one user at a time, not samba issiue. But If paul connects to "server" and paul2 connects to "nummeric IP of the server" (for example "\\123.246.678.901\paul2") than NT thinks it is takling to two servers and it works.

Thanks, Chris.First: Please answer to the whole list, there are a couple of helpfull guys. I guess the error message has changed and you now get "wrong password"? What have you changed in the lmhosts file. Leave it empty if you do not have browsing problems. User paul2 should not be needed on the w2k box, but on the sambe server. Have you set him up correctly? Can you connect with his name and password when there is no other connection? What happens if you do: net use \\server\share1 /user:paul net use \\192.168.1.1\share1 /user:chris ??

This is what is going on. On the windows 2000 box there is user paul only. On the Linux box there is user paul and paul2 as well as about 10 other users and everything is set up and working on the samba side with one exception paul2 cannot access his share logged in as paul on his windows 2000 box. No matter what I do I still get the same error "the credentials supplied conflicts with an existing set of credentials". This error happens with or without lines net use \\servername\share1 /user:paul net use \\192.168.1.1\share2 /user:paul2 in the lmhosts file on the windows machine. Here is a copy of the smb.conf file. # Samba Configuration File # # Global Parameters [Global] workgroup = GIBSON netbios name = BLACKBOX domain master = Yes prefered master = Yes bind interfaces only = True interfaces = 192.168.0.1 encrypt passwords = Yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd [gibson] comment = Gibson Main Share path = /var/shares/gibson create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 read only = No valid users = carleton, dana, dava, emily, katie, kevin, michael, nada, paul, robert, susan, bob, jim, molanda, yulinda, susie, sandra, liz [homes] read only = No browseable = No [books] comment = Gibson Financials path = /var/shares/books create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 read only = No valid users = paul, jim [pg-personnel] comment = Confidential Docs path = /var/shares/pg-personnel create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 read only = No valid users = paul2 I am still testing diff. configurations so if anyone can help I am under pressure to get this done last week.

To make this work, Paul needs a separate NT and UNIX account and needs to log in separately on his NT machine for the private area. The deeper problem is paul is exibiting bad behaviour. To cure this behaviour, log in as paul using the commonly know password and move his entire tree structure to some secret location and then sit back to watch the panic. :-) Chris Bourne wrote:> > Chris Bourne wrote: > > > Chris Bourne wrote: > > > >> > > > > Hello, > >> > > > > I have a windows 2000 user who is say logged in as > >> user paul > >> > > > > with password sunny and has access to certain samba shares > >> on a linux > >> > > > > server.
