Hi; I've a problem like; I have configured my smb.conf file for security=ads mode and krb5.conf is also OK.I'm sure because I've tested it with kinit command it works well.but when I try to see the shared files with smbclient I've got 2 different problems. 1st is whenI use -k parameter to run it with kerberos the error is NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE 2nd is when I use smbclient without -k it asks for password I enter it but it gives an error like "service setup failed" in mu opinion the problem may be about "encrypt password" parameter in smb.conf because of "encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no' must be explicitly defined in smb.conf. " but I am not sure.. I have a line "encrypt password=yes" in smb.conf!! thanks for help ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://webmail.students.itu.edu.tr
