Bad Password

[Paul Crittenden]

Hello all,
This is the first problem I have had with samba, that I can't find the
answer to, since I first started to work with samba.  I am running DecUNIX
4.0d and I was running 1.19.18p10 on a test server and everything worked
fine.  I downloaded, compiled and installed samba 2.0.0.  I am using the
same smb.conf file for 2.0.0 that I used for 1.19.18p10.  The problem I
have is this.

When on the actual server and I run:

smbclient -L info
I get:
Added interface ip=blah, blah blah, it's correct info.
Password: (I press return)
Gives me the proper info for the server.  I have never been asked for a
password for this command before.

smbclient //info/tmp (a guest account)
added interface ip=....
Password: ( I press return)
Session setup failed: ERRSRV - Errbadpw (Bad Password pair on a Tree
Connect or session setup are invalid.)

If I map a network drive to \\info\tmp on a pc it connects fine.

smbclient //info/user (not a guest account)
added interface ip=...
Password: (I enter the correct password)
Session setup failed: ERRSRV - Errbadpw (Bad Password pair on a Tree
Connect or session setup are invalid.)

If I map a network drive to \\info\user on a pc I get the error:
The password is incorrect. Try again.

So what am I doing wrong or what changed at 2.0.0?
