[Samba] Urgent problem with Samba and Windows NT4...

[Rainer Hantsch]

Hello!

I tried to get some help from the IRC before, but the problem seems to be too
complicated to discuss it there.
PLEASE, be so kind and help me solving this problem, I stuck and I must get
this working as quick as possible.

Here an overview and some details:
In one well protected LAN (so I have no need to encrypt passwords at all,
which simplifies user management on servers in turn because I do not have to
add users twice (once to Linux, once to samba) I have two SAMBA servers.

.) The old one is running on SuSE 6.4 and is version 2.0.6.
   To this server, all current windows clients (NT4, Win2000, WinXP) can
   connect, and everything works fine.
.) The new server is running Samba 3.0.7-5.2-SUSE on SuSE 9.2.
   To this server, only Win2000 and WinXP, but not NT4 can connect.
.) The old server can use 'smbmount' to mount the new server with samba,
   which was done with several usernames for testing, so it must configured
   theoretically well.

So the bis question is: Why can't Win-NT4 connect to the new server?

Below I appended the important parts of both smb.conf files and a little
snippet of /var/log/samba/log.smb.

If somebody can help, please.

Thanks,

Rainer




Old server's smb.conf, the server who is working well:

   guest account = nobody
   keep alive = 30
   os level = 96
   kernel oplocks = false

   browseable = yes
   read only = no
   locking = yes

New server's smb.conf:
This server can only be mounted from smbmount, Win2k and WinXP

A short snippet of the samba-logfile. User "wewerka" is existing and
has a valid password, though she cannot log in to the new server. I wonder
about username "Standard". As you can see, User "roza" can login.
