similar to: Win95/98 Passwords

I know this one has probably been discussed to death, but the search engines are down. I have a user on a Win95/8 machine with a userid lets say user1. They have an account on a samba server with a different user id, say user2. the user has no ability to modify account id's and both are required, user1 attaches to a bunch of MS related junk which can't be removed. the id, user2, is

Hi there, I've just tripped over a problem I thought only existed in WfWg3.11. On Win95 clients connecting to a 1.9.18p8 Samba server (IRIX 5.3) the first logon dialog box seems to have a problem with mixed-case passwords. If I have a lower case password, then I can just enter it in the Win95 'Microsoft Network' logon dialog at startup, and all the shares are reconnected. If I

My LAN is running Samba v1.9.18p10 under RedHat Linux v5.2. Using the SMB services are Win95 and OS/2 clients. It's all running fine. I will soon be adding Win98, though, and I understand that there is a question of password encryption. I'm concerned how the encrypted/plain-text communication of password will affect my existing configuration. If I reconfigure Samba to use encrypted

Hi, I'm having some problems with Samba 1.9.16p11 on a Sun3/60 running NetBSD 1.2. I have a Win95 client and a couple of DOS clients on a single ethernet segment (it's at home :-). I've set up a simple configuration, intention was just to serve files from the Sun to the PC's. Everything works perfectly except authentication from the Win95 client. I can connect to the Samba shares

Greetings, Could someone please tell me if SAMBA, when used as a domain logon server, can use the existing UNIX user accounts (i.e. /etc/passwd), or the only way to make win95 domain logons work is by the method described in DOMAIN.txt (i.e. MUST use profiles on the server)? Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the win95/NT logon methodolgy/concept and I am wondering whether enabling

Is there any way to have an account that let's multiple users from Windows 95 clients log in? i.e., let's say there are shared folders called foo and bar. bar is public. foo is accessible to user "foobar" with password "foobar." Win95 keeps sending over it's username as the person who logged in to that computer, or as the computer's machine name... and samba

Hello, I'm running Samba 1.9.19-prealpha (CVS, June 8 1998) on a sparc Solaris 2.6 server. It works fine. Now I'm trying to use the password changing feature from my Win95 clients'control panel. So I compiled with -DALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD, enabled encrypted passwords (have a smbpasswd file) and added 'unix password sync = yes' in my smb.conf... But password changing

HI Samba admins I have a win95 client on a remote subnet, i.e on the other side of a router, where all broadcast are stopped in the router. On the remote site the win95 is connected to another samba server and novell server. I would like it to connect to my samba server, logging in with the domain userid/passwd. How can I on the win95 mount a drive with

Hi, I had similar problems with Samba and speed. To begin with, I thought it was a Samba problem, and spent a lot of time stuffing around with smb.conf Then, just to make certain it was Samba and not a generic TCP/IP problem, I tried ftp'ng a big file to and from the Samba server from W95. Speed was only 20 k/sec - about 2% of the expected speed of a 10-Base-T network. Same for FTP'ng

hi*& ppl, can anyone help me? I haven't problems with NT clients to samba PDC. But I can not setup win95/98 clients to user based security, because win95/98 never can retrieve user list from samba pdc. Is it released? I can find any info about this problem. Thanks, Eugeny.

I've installed samba in my linux machine (Mandrake 7.2). With WinNT and Win2000 there is no problems, but in Win95 and Win98 It's impossible to read files, and open exixting folders, the error is: "the file (folder) don't exist". If I try to create one, It'isn't shown, there is an error, but if I go in machine with win2000 the folder(file) is there. How can I resolve

thanks to the samba crew- we have converted several netware and nt user servers into one seam-less Unix network, except for one group, netware dialup users. ok, win95 client, ppp to linux server. using newest pppd, with correct ms-wins and ms-dns code. client can dial, gets wins server ips, etc. the client functions fine with tcp-ip stuff. the ppp server is the wins server. go to client and do a

Howdy, I'm running samba (version 1.94) on a FreeBSD 2.2.6 machine. I've been playing around with changing passwords from windows clients. The relevant parts of my smb.conf are : # ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation. # Do not enable this option unless you have read those documents ; encrypt passwords = yes #Enable windows clients to change passwords #unix

Has anybody got some experience with connecting machines running Windows3.1 or WfWG (3.11) to Samba? We would like to run a small lab network with user accounts and a shared printer off the samba box. Samba is running fine and there's no problem to connect to it from the Win95/WinNT machines... Any help appreciated. Frank Wornle, Glasgow Caledonian University Dept. of Engineering

Hello, now I've set up a linux samba password server using Samba 1.9.18p4 on a linux 2.0.33. File and password serving works ok now, but I can't change my passwords with any Win95 utility. Samba always tells me "Wrong password" an d in the logs it says: "Disallowing access to user due to null password check_lanman:password: old password doesn't match" But I know
