Hi I'm setting up a server here with RH7.1 and Samba 2.2. I've set it up to use winbind which works for telnet beautifully. Unfortunately I can't get it to authenticate users trying to reach their shares on the box. I'm certain I've done something dim and missed a point somewhere. Can anyone suggest where I should start looking. Many Thanks Sue Davies

[SAMBA] Winbind - working for telnet but not the browser
Hi there Sue, I see you are using valid users = "@CIVIC\IT". I think your problem is right there ! As you know, the "\" character has a special meaning on various systems... Maybe you should start using the "+" character instead of "\" as the "winbind separator". It works for me... Good luck! Martijn. -----Original Message----- From: Davies Sue [mailto:sue.davies@lbbd.gov.uk] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 11:46 AM To: 'm.o.tigchelaar@kpn.com' Subject: RE: [SAMBA] Winbind - working for telnet but not the browser I've been through the documentation step by step, I can see the shares through the browser but can't get into them so it's only the authentication that's not working. The fact that the problem is limited to the browser makes me wonder if it's something small, perhaps one of the files in /etc/pam.d or the smb.conf (valid users = @CIVIC\IT). If someone has set up winbind sucessfully, how do I use a group from the NT pdc in smb.conf Thanks Sue -----Original Message----- From: m.o.tigchelaar@kpn.com [mailto:m.o.tigchelaar@kpn.com] Sent: 30 January 2002 09:49 To: sue.davies@lbbd.gov.uk Subject: RE: [SAMBA] Winbind - working for telnet but not the browser Hi, You should start looking in the "samba appliance" documentation that comes with Samba.

Thanks Martijn I changed my smb.conf to use the + rather than \ and I'm still having problems. I'm going to try taking it out of the domain and putting it back in again. I've spoken to a colleague who recalls having this problem with a windows machine and cured it by removing it and replacing it in the domain. I'm not hopeful but at the moment I'm getting low on ideas.
