Hello, My assumption in helping you is that you have installed Samba and that it lives in /usr/local/samba. If you have it installed elsewhere, substitute your dir's for any commands below. There is a small program called mksmbpasswd.sh you should have. I have it in /usr/local/samba/bin. The following assumes you have that program and it is in your path. Do the following as root: cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh > /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd (make sure wherever you have the dir of private, its mods are 0700 and smbpasswd is 0600) Make sure you have a pcguest in /etc/passwd (I have one in both /etc/passwd and /etc/master.passwd and when i did the adduser for pcguest, it was added as: pcguest:*:1001:1001::0:0:Samba Guest Acount:/nonexistent/pcguest:/nonexistent Let's assume your login to your Doze box is andy and your password to your FreeBSD box is gumpy. #smbpasswd -a andy (asked for passwd) gumpy (again) gumpy You have a fair amount of useful smb parameters commented out. You should read some of the documents on a mirror site. Hope that will help you out.
