Hello all. I'm hoping someone would have some insight into my Samba problems. I cannot connect to my samba server from my win2kpro box. I cannot see it in the workgroup, but can find it if I search. When I try to connect, I am asked for username and password, but nothing will work. Do I have to specify a new u/p just for Samba? Below is my smb.conf. Any help is appreciated. Thanks much. # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too # many!) most of which are not shown in this example # # Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) # is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a # # for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you # may wish to enable # # NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm" # to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors. # #======================= Global Settings ===================================== [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4 workgroup = WORKGROUP # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field server string = Mackeson Samba Server # This option is important for security.
