When I connect from windows machine (machine A) to a samba share at machine
B with authenticate server being machine A itself, it failed with
:> auth/auth_server.c:check_smbserver_security(363) password server win2k3svr
rejected the password
what does it mean by the ?password reject? message ? it only happens when
the authentication server and the client is the same machine.
here is my setup :
Machine A : windows 2003 server
Machine B : CentOS 4.4 kernel 2.6.9-42
Samba version : 3.0.10
smb.conf :
??????? security = SERVER
??????? password server = win2k3svr
however, if I connect from another windows machine (machine C) to the same
samba share at machine B with authenticate server being machine A, it
succeeded with :> smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(648) svr1 connect to service test
initially as user peter (uid=503, gid=503) (pid 5589)
So, I am not able to figure out the password reject error, because I am
using the same user and the same authentication server in both cases.
