unable to access folder

[Chen Kee Chuan]

Hi again Gustavo,

I tried 'smbclient -L hostname' without the password and I got this....

Anonymous login successful
Domain=[nt server] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.0]
tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share
name)

regards,
Chen

Hi Gustavo,

here's the entry of my smb.conf
[global]
 workgroup = <workgroup>
 security = server
 password server = <nt server>
 encrypt passwords = yes
 smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd

session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair
in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.)
I got the error above when I tried to run 'smbclient -L hostname'

which is odd... I'm not sure where else to check.

Hope to hear from you soon,

Thanks again,
Chen

Hello,

I guess you are using domain authentication. How does your smb.conf look
like?

Are there entries like:

security = domain
encrypt passwords = yes
password server = *

Also, while adding domain users to the smbpasswd database you shouldn't
enter any password, just hit enter twice.

What is the result of 'smbclient -L hostname'? (run as root, using the root
password when asked)

cheers
Gustavo
