hi Ok, I've now got more info. Doing smbclient -L blackfang returns the following error. unknown name switch type dns. session setup failed. NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. This is frustrating. Isn't this supposed to work regardless of whether I have an account on the machine I'm trying to connect to? Hear's what I'm trying to do. I'm basically...

..." file that will do what I want? If I'm understanding this right it's not how samba is configured so much as it is what the gui tools will let me do? I use the mate desktop, with the caja file manager and it's caja share extension. I've tried a few things, connecting to smb:blackfang.

I'd like to come up with a smb.conf file which will work for most users, since a lot...

hi all My name is Kendell Clark, and I've just subscribed to this list. I thought I'd write this email to introduce myself, and ask a couple of questions about configuring samba. I'm a co developer of a linux distribution for the visually impaired and disabled called Sonar GNU linux, which you can learn more about at http://www.sonargnulinux.com.
