Hey all. I've got four computers in a small network (Actually more, but keeping it simple to get to the point) 1> Linux Server (RH7.3) Running Samba (Default version with RH7.3) 2> Windows 2000 Workstation 3> Windows XP Pro. 4> Windows 98SE All of the windows boxes can connect, without problems, to the SAMBA server, and all the shares. No problems whatsoever. All boxes (with the exception of the 98 Box) have user accounts that match in user name and password, making everything work pretty smoothly. The 2000 and the XP box also have shares on them. All of the windows boxes can see each other, connect to the shares, no problem. Here is where it gets interesting; The Linux box can mount a share on the Windows 2000 box without problem. ( i.e. I can mount the \\ <file:///\\%3cw2Kbox%3e\c$> <w2Kbox>\c$ to \mnt\net1 on the Linux box) However, I can't mount to the XP box in the same manner. It seems like M$ has built in some kind of noncompatability for Samba (Wouldn't surprise me there), or at least noncompatability with SMBMount (or 'mount -t smbfs' ) Here is a screenshot of what I am getting; [root@hoc etc]# mount -t smbfs -o username=malc,password=******* //bytelair/c$ /mnt/net1 5356: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.) SMB connection failed [root@hoc etc]# Note: The XP box does have an account malc that is an administrator, and I can connect using the same account and password to the c$ share from the windows 2000 box. Any help would be appreciated! Malcolm Jack Manager Systems Infrastructure / Telecom "Let's Roll. . ." -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
I ran into a somewhat similiar problem recently, make sure that your XP local security configuration is set to accept NTLM, I believe the default is NTLMv2 which 2.x.x samba does not support.>From: Malcolm Jack <Malcolm.Jack@brandes.com> >To: "'samba@lists.samba.org'" <samba@lists.samba.org> >Subject: [Samba] Help - Moutning XP Drives on Linux box using. >Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2002 10:54:13 -0700 > >Hey all. > > > >I've got four computers in a small network (Actually more, but keeping it >simple to get to the point) > > > >1> Linux Server (RH7.3) Running Samba (Default version with RH7.3) > >2> Windows 2000 Workstation > >3> Windows XP Pro. > >4> Windows 98SE > > > >All of the windows boxes can connect, without problems, to the SAMBA >server, >and all the shares.

Also look for other differences such as workgroup settings. Can you connect with smbclient? Can you connect with smbclient from the samba 3.0 alpha releases? /Urban

If you use AD then its in your domain group policy, otherwise goto start:programs:admin tools:local security policy:local policies:security options:Lan Manager Authentication level I recommend setting to "Send NTLMv2 response only, refuse LM" which is one setting below the highest and will allow NTLM authentication. Also if you haven't looked at this before you should google for the registry tweak to make sure LM hashes aren't stored for backwards compatibility. LC4 can break a weak password LM hash in under a second.
