I'm trying to set up a samba box at home to centralize my family's storage
into one place.
Every time I try to connect to the box I get an incorrect user name or
password dialog and it doesn't matter what I put in but it won't let me
connect. In the log files every time I connect I see something like
(repeated several times)...
[2003/07/05 13:20:11, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(348)
Unable to open new log file /var/log/log.smbd: No such file or directory
[2003/07/05 13:20:11, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
unable to open passdb database.
Of course this is logged in /var/log/log.smbd so I'm sure how it can't open
it... and /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd does exist and contains the
following (on one line):
samba:1000:NO PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[UN ]:LCT-3F06FD70:
Any ideas would be appreciated...

P.S. I have a few share sections that are all like so...

comment = Matt's Stuff
volume = matt
path = /samba/Matt
And my global section looks like (I have tried both security=share and
security=user) ...

smb passwd file = /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd

bind interfaces only = no
