I recently tried to install swat, it's working with the "-a"(no authentication) flag, but with authentication it fails miserably. Here is some information about my setup: Samba directory: /home/samba Encrypted Passwords: Yes Samba version: 2.0.7 Kernel: Linux tau.kearneydev.com 2.2.12 #1 Fri Sep 17 13:02:27 EDT 1999 i686 unknown Distribution: Redhat 5.2 I've tried dozens of time, I am typing the password for root correctly, as well as other users... They all fail.... I've checked the logs and there are no errors... It must not be looking in /etc/passwd or /home/samba/private/smbpasswd for the passwords or it would let me in. Any hints on resolving this would be appreciated. David Secret MIS Director Kearney Development Co., Inc.
