Please Help!
I am trying to get a samba server running on my network. It is on
a Dec Alpha running Red Hat Linux 5.2. It appears to be Samba
2.0.3. I have been using Andrew Tridgell "DIAGNOSING YOUR SAMBA
SERVER" at http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/DIAGNOSIS.html and
have passed test 1 through 6, but am stuck on Test 7. motorad and
riven are NT4.0 and WIN95 and alpha is the Linux box. I keep
getting an "Access Denied" message! I have enclosed my very basic
smb.conf file below. I have tried most logical variations, but
can not get past this problem.
Please respond directly to woodbri@mediaone.net
Any help would be appreaciated.
