[Samba] Samba 3.5.4 canonicalize_connect_path failed for service

[Roger Wu]

Hi,

I'm now trying to setup a samba server and connected from Win 7 or XP .
I want our PC connected to samba using NIS authentication.
The Linux OS is red hat 6.0 with samba 3.5.4.
So, here is my setting.

smb.conf
[global]
        workgroup = TEK
        server string = Samba Server Version %v
        security = user
        passdb backend = tdbsam
        interfaces = 127.0.0.1, 172.26.80.0/21
        bind interfaces only = Yes
        encrypt passwords = No
        lanman auth = Yes
        client lanman auth = Yes
        client plaintext auth = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        hosts allow = 172.26.
        cups options = raw

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No
        browseable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No

I did most of the same settings in another workstation and
it can works properly fine with NIS authentication.
The only difference would be the OS and samba version (redhat 5.7 + samba
3.0.33)
I just can't get it done on this one.

I use smbclient command to check the authentication on WS and it is fine,

# smbclient -L //cadenv -U roger
Enter roger's password:
Domain=[TEK] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.4-68.el6]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        -----------------       -------      --------------

        Server               Comment

        CADENV           Samba Server Version 3.5.4-68.el6

        Workgroup          Master
        ---------                -------
        TEK

but when I connect to the samba server from PC, I can't pass the
authentication and
it keeps getting the following message from log.smbd

I've been searched many articles about this message from google,
some said it's about root permission and "chmod
o+x /misc/home7.2/d410/roger" needs to be set,
but it didn't work out for me.

I've been set "EnablePlainTextPassword"="1" for Win7 registry and
I didn't add any user to smbpasswd. (Even I add users to smbpasswd, it
still can't work)
Do I need to add users to smbpasswd?

I've been stuck at this for three days. I really ran out of my tanks.
Hope someone can help me out. Thank you so much.

Best Regards,
Roger
