[Samba] Corrent security mode settings to allow mess-windows XP behave!
I have a Linux samba server (CentOS 5.4, Samba 3.0.33) that is serving two printers, anonymously, one read-only file share, anonymously, and two username/password-protected writable shares. Right now, I have the security mode set to 'share'. The printers and the read-only share are handled right, but when I try to connect to one of the writable shared, mess-windows only asked for a password, not a username! What do I have to change? The machine I trying this on is running Win XP Pro. (We have another machine running Win XP Home, and there are two other machines running Win 7.) I'm tempted at this point of looking to see if there is a NFS client for mess-windows... -- Robert Heller -- Get the Deepwoods Software FireFox Toolbar!
