[other] Samba not accepting login creds

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – Using 12.04 LTS The problem is I can see the shares thru nautilus and with smbclient commands. When I try to access the shares from my other box I can see the shares but I can't access them as the username/password aren't being accepted. I don't get a prompt telling me why the login just comes back too me. Users are added with the adduser command for the server itself and the smbpasswd for the samba user. Both accounts have the same passwords so password syncing isn't an issue. I have 3 different users. 1 standard 1 admin with password and 1 admin w/o password. This happens on all 3. Right (Hardware)

Stories similar to [other] Samba not accepting login creds

Every time I set up a new Ubuntu I have problems getting Samba to work. I now have it working, but my process seems to have little to do with the documentation.

1. I run shares-admin, which offers to install NFS & SMB. 2. shares-admin Shared Folders only offers NFS not SMB, although the General Properties tab allows me to set Workgroup 3. At this stage I give up and edit smb.conf 4.

Access to samba shares in Gnome 3.6 appears to be broken. It used to be the case that with "connect to server" you could specify credentials such as username, password etc.

I have a few conditions to meet with a new samba setup.I want to migrate a windows based share to a linux samba share. However this time the share is in the regular corporate LAN and I do not have the rights to add this samba server to the corporate windows domain.

So Im getting my new server going and right now Im working on using smbpasswd to add approximately 287 users. Ive got a file with all my usernames and their passwords, seperated by a space. Yesterday when I created their accounts with home directories and set their passwords I used a little perl script to do it and it worked splendidly. Im not having as much luck with smbpasswd though.

When accessing SMB shared that are password-protected, smbclient works just fine.

But when I'm trying to access shared that have no password protection (public shares), smbclient prints:

tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

How can I access those shares?

I have 2 linux systems. System 1 is running a sambaserver, system 2 other mounts the sambaserver using smbfs. I've installed samba and libpam-smbpass to sync users. I have everything working as I want.

There is only one issue that i want to fix.

I have problem with AD and ntlm_auth.
