Dear ALL: I installed Samba2.0.7 on redhat6.2. First I chose the security = user, then I always could not pass test 8 or test 9 from win2000. The error message says either "access denied" or "Could not log int from the work station" while I am sure that the host allow parameter allows this computer. Also I set "encrypt passwords = yes" and created a smbpassword file. Did not help at all. Then I changed the security = share. Now all those shared file folders show up on the win2000. However, when I clicked on them, it always says "Incorrect password or unknown username". The log.smb says "rejected invalid user guest" or "rejected invalid user nobody" if I turned the guest account off. What did I do wrong? (also I have the same password and account on both linux and win2000). Appreciate your help very much. Hong Zhou -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
Greetings: I have samba 2.2.0 running on Solaris 8 machine. A user named John is loging into W2k pro and sees/access his shares on the samba server with no problems. While John is still logging into the W2k another user named Tim wants to access his shares on the samba server. He finds his shares but prompted with window asking for username & passwd. If he supplies them he got a messages " incorrect password or unknown username". Please not the two user have the same username/passwd on the server and the W2K machine, what seems the problem is? Please assist. Thanks, Ghassan
Is this the same unix or NT user name and password? How is it being authenticated. -----Original Message----- From: Ghassan Al-Eqabi [mailto:ghassan@lithos.wustl.edu] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 1:04 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Cc: ghassan@ocean.wustl.edu Subject: [Samba] incorrect password or unknown username Greetings: I have samba 2.2.0 running on Solaris 8 machine.
