I'll trying to separate some group shares in two with netbios alias
parameter.
Currently main samba server (netbios name: kenshin) is running as PDC and
there aren't any problem login from Win9x clients. I added the following
lines to smb.conf:
netbios aliases = pclab
include = /usr/local/samba/lib/%L.conf
and I created pclab.conf on /usr/local/samba/lib/ directory.
pclab.conf simply looks like this:
[labsoft]
comment = PC Lab software (Labstaff only)
path = /home/export/smb/labsoftware
writeable = yes
valid users = %S
locking = yes
create mode = 0770
directory mode = 0770
force group = labstaff
Problem that i have is I cannot browse the pclab computer from Network
Neighborhood. I don't have problem browsing the main samba server
(kenshin). When I click pclab computer I get a dialog box
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
|"Enter Network Password" |
|You must supply a password to make this connection: |
| |
|Resource: \\PCLAB\IPC$ |
|Password: |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
I am assuming that it doesn't send correct username or something.
>From the server, I could login by running smbclient command:
'smbclient //pclab/labsoft -U oh
Any idea?
