[Samba] Connection reset by peer

[Sameer Kamat]

Hi,

     We are seeing this on our Fedora Core 2 machine when accessing the share from a Windows 2003 box.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This is  the smb.conf file : 

[global]
    smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
    passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
    pam password change = yes
    obey pam restrictions = yes
    encrypt passwords = yes
    unix password sync = no
    security = share
    socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
    preferred master = no
    server string = Samba Server
    load printers = no
    username map = /etc/samba/user.map
    log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
    name resolve order = host
    smb ports = 139

[samba]
    path = /samba
    writable = yes
        guest ok = yes
    guest account = root


This is the error :
