My question is, how come daevid (on XP) sees the following directories: \\linux\dae51d \\linux\homes Shouldn't there just be the home dir only? Why does "\\linux\dae51d" show up (I assume it's b/c that's who I am logged in as on XP which maps to linux)? However, the fact that it does show up, shouldn't it be the actual HOME directory of the linux user account dae51d (as

I just want a simple, globally accessible directory for anyone on my LAN. I don't care who they are, who they're logged in as on their windows machine, I don't care about security (it's my own private LAN!!!). Why is this so difficult to do? I've looked through the archives (which by the way, could someone spend a few minutes and put a SEARCH feature there. Following threads

We've recently started using samba-3.0.23d on Mandriva 2007.0 linux systems and we've noticed a change in behaviour of smbpasswd when a non-root user tries to change their password from "NO PASSWORD".

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate an NT4 domain to Samba3, and getting quite frustrated with stuff that seems not to work as advertised. I'd appreciate any help. I've set up an OpenLDAP server, and Samba 3, configured it as a BDC, and tried running "net rpc vampire". This all works, and Samba does the appropriate stuff to try and populate the LDAP database.

Help! (pretty please :) I'm still having the problem described below with samba-3.0.24. Here's an excerpt from the smbpasswd man page: When run by an ordinary user with no options, smbpasswd will prompt them for their old SMB password and then ask them for their new pass word twice, to ensure that the new password was typed correctly.

I'm a little less new to samba now - but having a heck of a time getting authentication to work. I'm running NIS+, configured samba with --with-nisplus --with-nisplus-home and --with-automount.

But it asks for an OLD password which never works. I thought
