Hello

my name is Tiziano Demaria and I'm sorry for my English

I've installed LINUX RED-HAT 6.0 with kernel 2.2.7.

I've several troubles with samba server.

The network configuration is the following:

* Server LINUX

* three WIN-95 client machines

The web server work correctly such as POP-3, SMTP and IMAP.

But.....if I'd like to connect server (e.g. to share directories and files),

the WIN machines ask me a password.......and i don't know what to say.

I've controlled smb.conf files,but I've not found particualr anomalies...I've

also tried to make different and various settings, but the result is the same:

if i want to share a unit, win ask me a password, and I've not set any password!

I send to You my smb.conf for an analisys.

I'd like to share the dir: /home/samba 

Do you can help me please ?

I'm waiting an Your answer. Thank You in advance for any help

KDRS

---------------------  MY SMB.CONF FILE -------------





# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the

# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed

# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too

# many!) most of which are not shown in this example

#

# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) 

# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #

# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you

# may wish to enable

#

# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"

# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors. 

#

#======================= Global Settings =====================================

[global]

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name

# workgroup = MYGROUP

# workgroup = TLT

# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field

server string = Samba Server

# This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict

# connections to machines which are on your local network. The

# following example restricts access to two C class networks and

# the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see

# the smb.conf man page

hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127. 

# if you want to automatically load your printer list rather

# than setting them up individually then you'll need this

printcap name = /etc/printcap

load printers = yes

# It should not be necessary to spell out the print system type unless

# yours is non-standard. Currently supported print systems include:

# bsd, sysv, plp, lprng, aix, hpux, qnx

printing = bsd

# Uncomment this if you want a guest account, you must add this to /etc/passwd

# otherwise the user "nobody" is used

; guest account = pcguest



# this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine

# that connects

log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m

# Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).

max log size = 50

# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See

; password server = <NT-Server-Name>

# Password Level allows matching of _n_ characters of the password for

# all combinations of upper and lower case.

; password level = 8

; username level = 8

# You may wish to use password encryption. Please read

# ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation.

# Do not enable this option unless you have read those documents

; encrypt passwords = yes

; smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd

# The following are needed to allow password changing from Windows to

# update the Linux sytsem password also.

# NOTE: Use these with 'encrypt passwords' and 'smb passwd file' above.

# NOTE2: You do NOT need these to allow workstations to change only

# the encrypted SMB passwords. They allow the Unix password

# to be kept in sync with the SMB password.

; unix password sync = Yes

; passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u

; passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*

# on a per machine basis. The %m gets replaced with the netbios name

# of the machine that is connecting

# Most people will find that this option gives better performance.

# See speed.txt and the manual pages for details

# Configure Samba to use multiple interfaces

# If you have multiple network interfaces then you must list them

# here. See the man page for details.

# Cause this host to announce itself to local subnets here

; remote announce = 192.168.1.255 192.168.2.44

# Browser Control Options:

# set local master to no if you don't want Samba to become a master

# browser on your network. Otherwise the normal election rules apply

; local master = no

# OS Level determines the precedence of this server in master browser

# elections. The default value should be reasonable

; os level = 33

# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master Browser. This

# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't use this

# if you already have a Windows NT domain controller doing this job

; domain master = yes 

# Preferred Master causes Samba to force a local browser election on startup

# and gives it a slightly higher chance of winning the election

; preferred master = yes

# Use only if you have an NT server on your network that has been

# configured at install time to be a primary domain controller.

; domain controller = <NT-Domain-Controller-SMBName>

# Enable this if you want Samba to be a domain logon server for 

# Windows95 workstations. 

; domain logons = yes

# per user logon script

# %L substitutes for this servers netbios name, %U is username

# You must uncomment the [Profiles] share below

; logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%U

# All NetBIOS names must be resolved to IP Addresses

# 'Name Resolve Order' allows the named resolution mechanism to be specified

# the default order is "host lmhosts wins bcast". "host" means use the unix

# system gethostbyname() function call that will use either /etc/hosts OR

# DNS or NIS depending on the settings of /etc/host.config, /etc/nsswitch.conf

# and the /etc/resolv.conf file. "host" therefore is system configuration

# dependant. This parameter is most often of use to prevent DNS lookups

# in order to resolve NetBIOS names to IP Addresses. Use with care!

# The example below excludes use of name resolution for machines that are NOT

# on the local network segment

# - OR - are not deliberately to be known via lmhosts or via WINS.

; name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast

# Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section:

# WINS Support - Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable it's WINS Server

; wins support = yes

# WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client

# Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT both

; wins server = w.x.y.z

# WINS Proxy - Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on

# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be

# at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.

; wins proxy = yes

# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names

# via DNS nslookups. The built-in default for versions 1.9.17 is yes,

# this has been changed in version 1.9.18 to no.

dns proxy = no 

# Case Preservation can be handy - system default is _no_

# NOTE: These can be set on a per share basis
