Connection problem...

[David Porter]

Hey,

We're experiencing a strange problem with some of our NT boxes connecting to
a Samba server (1.9.16p7). I don't think the problem is on the Samba side,
and it would be nice if we could prove this! :-)

Okay, the problem is that the user is getting the error message :-
"The account is not authorised to login from this station"

The user can log in with no problems using smbclient, which points me to
something on the NT side. There is no hosts allow line in the smb.conf.

debug output :-

We can connect fine from some NT workstations, but not from a specific group
in another domain. All workstations are NT4.

Any ideas...It'd be great to blame this one on NT!

Thanks,

Dave
