Greetings,
I have tried a few days on an off to get samba to work, but need some help.
Samba version Samba 3.0.23a-1.FC5.1
Linux Fedora 5 (localhost) User: dsmith 192.168.1.104
Windows XP SP2 with lastest updates (T2385) User: dan 192.168.1.100
Linksys 8 port router
I found a couple problems with the checklist and fixed them. A
couple problems I wasn't able to solve.
Here are the problems:
1)
smbclient //192.168.1.104/dan -Udsmith
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
smbpasswd is set, both dsmith and dan
testparm runs fine I have cleared allow hosts, specified allow hosts, etc.
Have disable both firewalls, Linux and Windows.
2)
nmblookup -d 2 '*'
Linux box responds fine. Never have got a response from Windows.
3)
cat T2385.log
[2006/08/20 01:33:26, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum (911)
'/home/dsmith' does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [dan]
Error was Permission denied
I have changed permissions on /home and /dsmith to 777. It didn't help
I created a user dan. It didn't help.
On Windows I'm using map network drive. Y: //192.168.1.104/dan
I use login as different user: dsmith and password
Here is smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2006/08/19 23:38:24
[global]
workgroup = SMITH
server string = Samba Server
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
preferred master = Yes
dns proxy = No
ldap ssl = no
hosts allow = 192.168.1., 127.
cups options = raw
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /usr/spool/samba
printable = Yes
browseable = No
[dan]
path = /home/dsmith
username = dsmith
I hope you can help me, I'm trying to convert from Windows XP to
Linux and I thought samba would be the fastest way to transfer my
files over (60Gb).
Thanks,
Dan
