Hi !!!! Being new to Samba makes this very challenging, to say the least!!!! Anyway, I'm trying to connect from a NT to unix and when I try to login from NT here's what happens: C:\> net use x: \\systemname\tmp The password is invalid for \\systemname\tmp Type the password for \\nktest1\tmp: xxx The account is not authorized to login form this station. Anyone encounter this before?~ thanks in advance! john
