Samba: 3.0.28a I'm staring at Wireshark output to try to see why one user can read a particular cookie file from one machine, but the same user cannot read it from a different machine. I see: SMB_NETLOGON SAM LOGON request from client SMB_NETLOGON SAM Response - user unknown The detail of the exchange is below. The user name provided appears to be blank. So this may not be a surprise. Is this significant, or is it a vestigial exchange ?
