[Samba] smbclient can't write to windows share with domain account

[Andrew Boling]

Samba version: 3.0.22
netbios for my PC: abolingbox
netbios for my colinux sandbox, running on the same PC: fileserver2
domain: USWA2

I have a colinux sandbox on my PC (Win XP Professional) which I'm using as a domain controller.  This lets me test my PDC configuration without putting it live in our production environment.  I've successfully ported our old smbpasswd database to pdbsam and created group mappings for Domain Admins, Domain Users, and Domain Guests.

I've created a share on abolingbox called "stuff".  On this share, I've assigned full control to the user "USWA2\llarue".  This user can only access the share if the proper domain password is provided, which tells me that the domain authentication is working to some extent.  However, if I attempt to upload a file, I receive a "NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" message.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to what is going on?  The "USWA2\llarue" user has been granted "Allow" for every single privilege in the Security tab of the shared folder, Windows-side.  It would be helpful if I knew a registry setting to make the "NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" event generate an error in my event log that provided a more detailed explanation of what is going on.



Sample session from "fileserver" to "abolingbox":

colinux samba # bin/smbclient //abolingbox/stuff -U llarue -W USWA2
Password:
Domain=[USWA2] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \> ls
  .                                   D        0  Thu Apr  6 16:05:04 2006
  ..                                  D        0  Thu Apr  6 16:05:04 2006
  test1.txt                           A        0  Thu Apr  6 14:59:16 2006

Sample showing what happens if I provide an invalid password:

colinux samba # bin/smbclient //abolingbox/stuff -U llarue -W USWA2
Password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE


Proof that llarue is a valid user:
colinux samba # grep llarue /etc/passwd
llarue:x:568:585:USWA User:/home/llarue:/dev/null
colinux samba # bin/pdbedit llarue
llarue:568:USWA User
