If I uncomment the line guest ok =3D true in myshare section everything works
fine. Winuser is a username/password existing in the /etc/passwd file.
With the showed smb.conf, on the PC side a dialog box prompts me for the
username/password. I typed couples of username/password existing in the
/etc/passwd file but the answer was sadly always the same: "Unknown user or
wrong password."
I tried also the null password option and a user with no password.
To make the statement netbios name =3D newname valid, do you have to reboot the
linux machine?
On the linux machine iI'm running a SUSE 7.3 version.
I tried this (my final target) also with a Strongarm processor running a
Montavista linux distribution.
I enclose the full smb.conf file, the /etc/passwd file and the /etc/group file.
I will really appreciate your help.
Thank you for your kind attention,
best regards,
