all,
i keep getting this error message when i try to use samba from my win98 box
to connect to my solaris7 unix box. i can get the smbclient to work from
unix to unix but not windows to unix. i always get the following message
even though i am using my correct password:
**********************
C:\WINDOWS>net use s: \\stargate\sherring
The password is invalid for \\STARGATE\SHERRING. For more information,
contact
your network administrator.
Type the password for \\STARGATE\SHERRING:********
Error 5: You do not currently have access to this file. The file may be
marked read-only, or it may be part of a shared resource such as a folder, a
named pipe, a queue, or a semaphore. You can use the ATTRIB command to
change
the read-only attribute, or try again later when the file may be available.
Type the password for \\STARGATE\SHERRING:^C
C:\WINDOWS>
**************************
for reference, here is my smb.conf file:
*****************
[global]
workgroup = edsrdaj01
netbios name = stargate
interfaces = 204.230.206.3/255.255.255.0 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.0
bind interfaces only = yes
keepalive = 60
local master = no
socket address = 204.230.206.3
username = sherring
guest account = sherring
[homes]
guest ok = yes
#read only = no
#user = sherring
path = /export/home/sherring
debug level = 3
log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log. %m
writeable = true
*************************
what's even more frustrating is that i can see the unix share from my
windows network neighborhood browse list but when i click on it, it prompts
me for a password. when i enter the password, i get a password incorrect
message. any help will be greatly appreciated.

Actually, depending on what version of Win98 (I.E. SP2, etc.) You may need to have encrypted passwords set, in order to authenticate. I know there is a security patch that forces Win98 to use encrypted passwords. If you have that applied, then you will have to configure samba to use encrypted passwords, and set up the smbpasswd file. See the docs for more info. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Cooper [mailto:ian@WPI.EDU] Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2001 10:48 AM To: Herring, Stacey B Cc: 'samba@lists.samba.org' Subject: Re: Samba connection on windows...
