[Samba] samba user add command requires NT administrative priviledges
Hello, I have installed Linux RH 7 in my test environment. And i am facing some problem in the task. I have NT 4 server as a PDC, and RH server using samba. I am able to share the folders in this test domain. I am trying to use add user command of samba and upto some extents able to use that. When there is no unix account present- Problem here is, when I login on a NT/2000 workstation as a member of admin group, i am allowed to access shared folders on samba server and adduser commands succeeds and creates new user account on Linux box. (perfectly right) but when i revoke admin priviledges from that user (NT) , i cannot access same shares on samba server, but it asks for username/password. Also it doesn't create that new user on the Linux box. ( something wrong?) Can you help me to find this out? Regards, Aashish
