Problem logging to CIFS from Windows client
I've configured a Samba server (CIFS) Version 1.0 (based on Samba V3.0.24) on an IA64-VMS system.
The following steps are what I've done, as show in the
"HP OpenVMS Common Internet File System (CIFS) Based On Samba - Installation and Configuration Guide" :
1.successfully installed Samba software on OpenVMS Integrity 8.3 OS
2.run samba_setup to configure a Samba server
3.Modified smb.conf as show below
[global]
server string = Samba %v running on %h (OpenVMS)
security = user
passdb backend = tdbsam
domain master = Yes
guest account = SAMBA$GUEST
domain logons = Yes
log level = 2
log file = /samba$root/var/log_%h.%m
create mode = 0755
load printers = no
printing = OpenVMS
workgroup = ISTINET
netbios name = PECSERVER
[pecdir]
comment = Pec Shared Folder
path = /$1$DGA30/DIR$USER/PEC
read only = no
valid users = pec
public = no
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
browsable = Yes
[test]
comment = Test
path = /samba$root/tmp
guest ok = Yes
read only = no
[End of file]
4.Then i tried to add a samba user in this way:
- creating a VMS user, using the following commands
$ MC AUTHORIZE
UAF> COPY SAMBA$TMPLT SMBTEST /UIC=[500,500]/add_identifier
- creating a samba user
$ PDBEDIT -A SMBTEST
- $ samba$root:[bin]@SAMBA$GRANT_GIDUSERS.COM
to grant the identifiers CIFS$_SMBTEST to the users
- then i tried to change password,using:
$ NET RPC PASSWORD
having this error message
Could not connect to server 127.0.0.1
The username or password was not correct.
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
I succesfully log on the server through a linux client or smbclient command but i fail using windows client (XP and VISTA).
A log example from a windows machine:

I Cannot log on to SAMBA server from Windows machines, any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Problem logging to CIFS from Windows client
I think that is an accounting problem (on VMS system) between VMS user and NT user or maybe some issue about the RPC server.

Re: Problem logging to CIFS from Windows client
To change the samba password for your SMBTEST user, why not use the smbpasswd utility? While you are logged in with SMBTEST:
$ @samba$root:[bin]samba$define_commands
$ smbpasswd
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
The net rpc password is used to change passwords on remote servers:
$ net --server=
Password:
Enter new password for
I also had a lot of trouble getting XP and Vista to 'see' the samba server. The only way to get it working in the end was to access the SWAT (http://your_server:901/) page on each client machine first. After that it worked fine. I'm yet to figure out why.
Cheers,
