Hi list, After searching for a clue in google and list archives, I've found no solution to my problem. The question is: how to force SWAT from Samba 2.2.5 to authorize users. I can't use PAM, because I don't know it, I don't trust it and I don't have it in my Slackware 8.1 distro. Any time I try to log-in to SWAT via http://ip.address:901/, I enter correct root password (as in system /etc/shadow file), but all it says is an "user or password incorrect". Should I stop fighting with SWAT and install PAM? I am sure there's other way...
