Hi,
I have a problem with samba-2.0.3. Currently, I am running samba 1.9.17p4
on our IBM RS/6000 (AIX 3.2.5) machines and some Linux machines. It is
working well. I set up "EnablePlainTextPassword" on NT with SP3, and there
is no problem. Now, I downloaded samba-2.0.3, compiled it on AIX 3.2.5, and
installed it. When I run testparm, it does not show error message with the
following smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = abcxyz
browseable = yes
load printers = yes
printcap name = /etc/qconfig
printing = bsd
print command = /bin/lpr -h -P%p %s
guest account = msnet
status = yes
log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m
log level = 1
max log size = 50
security = server
password server = xyz
dead time = 10
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
read only = no
...... (some other shared directories)
where xyz is my NT server (PDC).
However, I can not mount any drive on AIX systems from any Windows NT or 95
systems -- always "password incorrect" as if I did not set
"EnablePlainTextPassword". If I include domain controller = xyz in the
[global] section, then I got an error message when I run testparm:
Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf
Unknown parameter encountered: "domain controller"
Ignoring unknown parameter "domain controller"
Loaded services file OK.
Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions
...... (it still lists all shared directories, but I still can not see any
of them from NT or 95).
Can somebody help me to figure out why? Again, I set up
"EnablePlainTextPassword" on both NT and 95 machines, and it was working
with samba-1.9.17p4. I tested: if I did not set up
"EnablePlainTextPassword" on NT with SP3, then I can not see shared
directories on samba-1.9.17p4 from NT with SP3 as expected.
Thanks for any help!
