Greetings,
I am running Samba 2.0.6 onn my Solaris 7 box.
It's running well, except; I can't seem to get local UNIX accounts to
work.
All my users in my NIS database get authenticated without a problem,
but since I want to give access to some shares without creating an NIS,
thereby creating a local machine account, it prompts for a password and
is denied.
Access is given, to Windows clients, automatically as we use the same
user name in both our NIS and NT domain accounts. This local account's
user name also has the same user name as the NT domain account I'm
trying to give access to.
Any suggestions why? Here are some specs (I would like the local
account "local" to have access to SHARE_ME)
PS :I even tried "valid user= " To allow all users access, but it
still
didn't work for the local account.
PSS: I don't having any smbpasswd accounts (I actually never used it,
except to join the domain originally)

As you can see, whenever they add in a file, I want the permissions to
be give as an NIS user name and group.
Any suggestions on how I can make this work without creating NIS
account (and preferably without users needing the enter a separate
password) would be much appreciated.
Thanks
