Greetings: I'm having a couple of problems that I can't seem to resolve (even after searching the Samba archives). 1) When selecting "Shared Directories" from within NT Server Manager, I get the following error: "The Remote Procedure Call Failed" 2) When setting the scope to \\servername with "User Manager for Domains," the scope gets set to domain (the same thing that happens when you try to set a local scope on an NT domain controller). I don't have Samba configured to be a domain controller. Anyway, I went through Andrew's "Diagnosing Your Samba Server" page and the server passes all tests except #3; it asks for a password but appears not to accept it. Here's the command output: [paul@ipanema ~]$ smbclient -L ipanema Added interface ip=172.21.24.216 bcast=172.21.24.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.) Here's a snippet from the 'log.ipanema' file: [1999/03/25 16:17:54, 0] passdb/smbpassfile.c:trust_password_lock(119) trust_password_lock: cannot open file /etc/TMLAB.IPANEMA.mac - Error was No such file or directory.
