Our network is primarily Windows NT including a FreeBSD 2.2.5 server running
a FreeBSD port of Samba 2.0.3.
When I try to connect to the FreeBSD machine from my Windows NT workstation
I get the following errors:
using "net view \\NS1"
Access denied.
using "net use * \\NS1\tmp /user:hjohnson" and then entering my
password
The account is not authorized to login from this station.
However, I can do a "nmbclient //NS1/tmp -Uhjohnson%secret" and
connect just
fine.
I commented out the "hosts allow" out of smb.conf and still no
success. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Herb, Thanks for the reply. I did that (I think) and it still does not work. My smb.conf has: security = user encrypt passwords = yes Also I used smbpasswd to create the /usr/local/private/smbpasswd file.
