Hello, I am running slackware 9 and I have also updated samba to version 2.2.8a from the slackware security update. I can access my xp box with no problems from my linux box but I cannot access my linux box from my xp box. I have been on several forums and IRC channels and no one seems to have much insight into my problem, someone recommended trying to post my problem here. I have gotten at least 15 different sample smb.conf files and have tried using them all with my own info of course but to no avail. Every time I open the 'view workgroup computers' on my xp box I can see the 'Samba Server' but when I click on it it says I do not have permission to access. I have tried using both the 'security = user' and the 'security = share' options. With the user option I get the error immediately, no prompt for user/pass. With the share option I can get past the initial icon but when I go to access a directory listed I get the error. With the share option I have tried several different approaches; using the 'guest ok = yes' I don't get prompted for a user/pass. Without using that option I get a user/pass prompt but the user is grayed out and no matter what pass I try it denies access. Like I said I have tried many different set ups that have been reccomended and none work. Every time after I restart samba I do a 'testparm' and every time it gives on errors. I suspect the problem may be with the xp box but I really don't know. In the past I used RedHat and I had no problems using samba so I know it is possible with my setup. I tried to give as much info as I could here but if more clarification is needed by someone to diagnose my problem I will give it. Thanks.
What's the netbios name of your Samba server? ----- Original Message ----- From: hemp4fuel <hemp4fuel@kc.rr.com> Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2003 17:33:53 -0500 To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] can't access samba share from xp> Hello, > > I am running slackware 9 and I have also updated samba to version 2.2.8a > from the slackware security update.

I did the smbclient -Llocalhost and it does show jerry, I don't have any firewall going, I do see the shares in My network places when I use the security share and I do get the error when i click on one, and if I try it with security user I cant get past the Samba Server icon. I don't use encrypted passwd. Thanks again. kluu te wrote:> I think you should keep it jerry and NOT localhost.

Use encrypted passwd and wins support = yes. Uncomment wins server. No wins ip's on the xp. Uncheck Enable LMHOSTS lockup in properties,advanced, wins in your tcp/ip protocol in yhe xp. Apply all the hosts ip's and names in /etc/samba/lmhosts and in /etc/hosts. In /etc/hosts.allow apply host allow name resolv order = lmhosts host wins bcast Reboot both maschines ----- Original Message ----- From: hemp4fuel <hemp4fuel@kc.rr.com> Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2003 19:33:53 -0500 To: kluu te <linuxpower@operamail.com> Subject: Re: [Samba] can't access samba share from xp> I did the smbclient -Llocalhost and it does show jerry, I don't have any > firewall going, I do see the shares in My network places when I use > the security share and I do get the error when i click on one, and if I > try it with security user I cant get past the Samba Server icon.

I ment comment out wins server.Else you get an error when running testparm. I've recently connected several fresh installed XP Pro's to a redhat samba server with the settings I gave you whitout any problems. No hotkey settings on the xp's at all. ----- Original Message ----- From: "kluu te" <linuxpower@operamail.com> Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2003 01:51:16 +0100 To: "hemp4fuel" <hemp4fuel@kc.rr.com> Subject: Re: [Samba] can't access samba share from xp> Use encrypted passwd and wins support = yes.
