Dear list, I have no in depth knowledge about samba but use the online tutorial to configure the samba server. this time I have installed samba ( Version 3.2.4-4.3-2042-SUSE-SL11.0 ) on suse 11. I have now disallowed the guest users and created some samba users with "smbpasswd -a <username> " command. but if I try to connect with the samba share from another linux box I get the error as below ````````````````````````````````````` smbclient //192.168.1.3/htdocs /mnt/htdocs_192.168.1.3 -o rw,user=admin,password=adminpass Domain=[LINUX-A0JN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.4-4.3-2042-SUSE-SL11.0] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED ``````````````````````````````````````````` and here is the testparm `````````````````````````````````````````````` Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf Processing section "[htdocs]" Global parameter deadtime found in service section!

Eagerly waiting for your kind response. Thanks
