Dear all,
I have recently configured a samba server that I have a strange problem
with, but it is not really consistent. I would be grateful for any help
I can receive.
This is what happens:
When I browse the microsoft windows network and find my workgroup my
samba server shows up. But when I double click on it I can't fill in my
username. Instead it shows my computer name (client) followed by a slash
and "Guest" and the field is not editable. I can however enter a
password.
If I instead type \\ followed by the servers IP address (\\192.168.0.1),
I can fill in both my username and password and log in without problems.
However, it seems that some clients can brows for the server and fil in
the username and password but the majority can not.
Thanks in advance! Below follows my smb.conf:
Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE
