Samba identification

[antoniou]

I installed samba version 2.2.8a on a HPUX 11.0
and when i want to acceed my shared directories with my computer, I may sign-in manualy, but I can't, all users are rejected.
I installed the same version on another HPUX 11.0 and I don't have same problem.
Anybody know an action to do for my first server?

what is your smb.conf file? Are the settings same in both machine. Are you getting any errors.

[antoniou]

The smb.conf file is the same on the two servers, and the samba version so.

Then, check whether u added the system user to smbpasswd .

[Luk Vandenbussche]

What kind of security do you use

- Domain member ? (Did you add the server to your domain)
- Share ? (Dit you add the users localy with smbpasswd of through swat ?)

[morganelan]

Check your samba log file that said in your smb.conf file.

[antoniou]

I use SECURITY=SHARE.
I try to use the smb.usermap file within success.
My user exist in the /etc/passwd file.
The two servers are identical, it's two clone.

[antoniou]

Here is the smb.conf file

[Luk Vandenbussche]

Your security level is share.
Did you add the users with the command smbpasswd

Otherwise you can copy the samba user DB from your other server (/var/opt/samba/private)

[antoniou]

No I never create a user with smbpasswd, I nver use this.
On the server which is ok, the directory /var/opt/samba doesn't exist.
On the server which is ko, the directory /var/opt/samba/private exist but is empty.

[Luk Vandenbussche]

Do you have smb.usermap on the server which is OK

[VEL_1]

Look at the following link in "User/Password Options" category.

How did you install samba?

You should install from HP:

That way /var/opt/samba will exist!

Thank's all, the problem was the parameter "guest account".
It value was smbnull but the user smbnull didn't exist in /etc/passwd.
