Hello guys,
I installed Samba 2.2.8 on Sun 8. When I try to connect to it from NT
machine
I get authentication window. Actually it is not accepting admin
account's password. Seems not able to authenticate me. Login window
pops up again and
again.
Do I have to configure smth on SUN to force samba use local sun
accounts?
In other words can you tell me what is not correct ?

smb.conf file:

# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = CYBER.TEST
security = share
guest account = guest
hosts allow = 192.168.

[root]
comment = Solaris root
path = /
valid users = root admin
public = no
writable = yes

[software]
comment = Software Share
path = /software
valid users = admin root
admin users = root admin
public = yes
writable = yes

Have you setup a smbpasswd file and populated it with your Solaris
accounts information? as I recall, in the default configuration, user
accounts are not available, you must make them available. One way is
to create the smbpasswd file, another is to get samba to use an
alternative authentication method.

You may be better served asking this in a samba newsgroup. I've
crossposted this into comp.protocols.smb and set the followups to
there.
