I've just joined the list and this is my first e-mail, I'm sure this has been answered many times. So if someone can direct me to the answer I would appreciate it. I have samba-2.2.7-3.7.2 installed on a RH7.3 server, not due for upgrade until later this year. I can get the windows 98 and windows 2000 PC to login, but cannot get the Windows XP PC to log in. I made the chages to the registry re: RequireSignorSeal DWord=0. I've run testparm and other system tests and all seems okay. My smb.conf is as follows: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = HOME netbios name = HM server string = Home server interfaces = 192.168.20.1/24 encrypt passwords = Yes update encrypted = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n unix password sync = Yes log level = 4 syslog = 0 max log size = 1000 name resolve order = wins,lmhosts, hosts, bcast keepalive = 30 socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE SO_BROADCAST TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 503 -c "%U" -s /bin/false -M %u logon script = login.bat logon drive = h: logon home = \\netbiosname\%U domain logons = Yes os level = 85 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes wins support = Yes remote announce = 192.168.20.255 socket address = 192.168.20.1 valid users = user1, user2, user3, user4 read only = No force security mode = 0775 directory mask = 0775 force directory mode = 0775 guest ok = Yes security = server password server = 192.168.20.1 [all$] path = /home/ valid users = user1, user2, user3, user4 write list = @Admin read only = Yes [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /etc/samba/netlogon [profiles] path = /home/profile create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S create mask = 0775 [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba create mask = 0700 guest ok = No printable = Yes browseable = No [web] comment = Start of MMT Private Web Directory path = /data/mmt_prv valid users = @grp_hm, administrator [shardata] comment = Tempory Folder path = /home/tmp valid users =@grp_hm, administrator [root] path = /root valid users = @Admin, administrator [data] comment = Data Storage path = /smb_data/data valid users = user1, user2, user3, user4 [Fun] comment = Fun Storage path = /home/jlmiller valid users = user1, user2, user3, user4 [PreLoad] comment = Windows 2K Preload path = /data/mmt_prv/utils/Microsoft/Pre-Install/w2kp valid users = @Admin, administrator [Interchk] comment = Sophos Anti-Virus Central Installation Directory path = /smb_data/sophos valid users = @grp_hm, administrator create mask = 0775 [CD-ROM1] comment = CDROM 1 path = /mnt/cdrom valid users = @grp_hm read only = Yes [CD-ROM2] comment = CDROM 2 path = /mnt/cdrom1 valid users = @grp_hm read only = Yes [CD-ROM3] comment = CDROM 3 path = /mnt/cdrom2 valid users = @grp_hm read only = Yes I'm running Windows XP SP2 and having a real bad time with it.
