Samba puzzle
I'm quite perplexed. My colleagues in IT are reporting that a samba user is attempting (and failing) login on our WINS server. I'm checking the smb.conf as well as combing through our entire server. Smb.conf has the following settings:
security = server
password = [WINS server IP]
wins server = [WINS server IP]
Not only do I not see such a user on our server, but I also don't see that particular user specified anywhere in smb.conf or usermap (also looked in PAM and CIFS configs just in case). I looked in /var/opt/samba/log.xxx and see nothing in regards to this. Nothing also in syslog.
Below is an entry I was given from the WINS server event viewer. We run HPUX 11.11 and I know I will probably need to give you more information, but I'm wondering where I might look next as I can't see where this might come from.
Event Type: Failure Audit

Thanks

Re: Samba puzzle
When I config the samba with my AD server, i remeber that the user should exist in the hpux machine
Then you need to add the password with:
smbpasswd
Man smbpasswd give it a try.

Re: Samba puzzle
My point was NOT to have the user attempt logging to the WINS server. Problem is this user is not defined anywhere that I can find on the Unix server. Make sense?

Re: Samba puzzle
The user exist in the WINS server but not in the hpux server correct ?.
So you have to add it to your unix server.
Then try to use the samba shares.

Re: Samba puzzle
However, there are login attempts in WINS coming from the HPUX server for THIS user and I am puzzled as to where they are coming from. I would like to stop these login attempts.
Thanks for your help
