Hi,
I'm having a problem getting my Windows machines to access shares in
Samba. When they browse to the Samba box it sometimes gives them an
error saying that they don't have permission or that the server is
unavailable. However this doesn't always happen and other times it lists
the shares. When I try to access the shares it just prompts for the
username/password over and over. I've tried Google and browsing around
the Samba doc and have spent hours and hours trying to fix this. I'm at
my wits end. Can anyone help?
I'm running Fedora Core 3 on the Samba server and upgraded Samba to
3.0.21b. Before I upgraded it was working most of the time; however, not
all the time, and there was an error in one of the logs. I researched
the error and found that it was resolved in a newer version of Samba, so
I upgraded. I'm running Windows Server 2003 SP1 using Active Directory
for domain authentication and running Samba in ADS security mode. All
Windows clients run XP Pro SP2. I'm using Webmin for remote
administration, but I also just login to the machine at times. I do use
Webmin to join the domain though.
Here are some of my configuration files:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
