I have installed the latest Samba on a FreeBSD 3.x box and cannot resolve serveral problems. Here are some details: 1. From WinNT 4.0 I can connect to a public share without any problems. 2. I cannot connect to a printer unless it is public. (Anybody reading this could print on my printer!) Not good. 3. Print jobs acumulate in /var/spool/samba -- If I don't delete by hand once a day the disc gets full. (They print fine.) 4. I have tried to limit connections to just our subnet, but the restriction does not appear to be in force (maybe the public status takes precedence?) 5. Currently only I have a user account on the FreeBSD box. When I connect using a co-worker's WinNT box, logged in as them, I do not see my home folder, but when I connect from my WinNT system I see my folder. When I try to open the folder I get a username/password challenge dialog box (my username and password are the same on both ends) and after manually entering the same information I am told I cannot access my folder from this station. When I try the same thing from a Win95 via a login through my ISP I can access my personal folder. Overall I'd say there is something wrong with the passwords, but what? -- Gary Dunn Knowledge Tree Honolulu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
