samba - Dec 2001 - XP and Samba

Hello Everyone,

I have a question about what I need to know to configure windows XP to work with
a samba share?
Are there any resources out now that explain how to configure samba and XP to
work together?

Thanks for the information,

Carey Hall

Carey,

The only thing I've had to do is the "RequiresSignorSeal" registry
hack.  After that, it's worked just fine.  Assuming all other WinXP Samba
configuration has been done and you get an error when trying to login to the
domain, try the following.

1.  run regedit

2.  go to: 
hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\netlogon\parameters

3.  then:  double click on RequiresSignOrSeal and set it to zero (it was at
one).

4.  exit regedit and after rebooting, you should be able to get in just fine.

Carey,

After getting Win98 to connect to Samba, our IT dept replaced the Win98 with 
an XP box, and while I can still get to the temp directory on Samba/Linux as 
guest, I can no longer access the other shares. 
Samba is running on RH-Linux 7.3 as an NT workstation. It and the XP box are 
on an WinNT/2000 domain. My suspicion is that my problem has to do with 
passwords, but haven't figured that out.
So, If someone can provide a fix, or point me to the documentation, it would 
be appreciated.
