Had enough of that crap. > Well you're on the right track with the NT_Status error. I get that too, and you should if you have it set to user. There's more you should have to type into that command to get it to run correctly. If you read the man page on smbclient (its long) it'll tell you about the other switches. Do a "smbpasswd -a (username)" and give it a password that'll add the user. It should be the same user/pass for windows, remember windows is case sensitive. Then do a "smbpasswd -e (username you just created) to enable the user, it'll get you to where I am. The only other 3 things you need to make sure you have in your global section is: encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd password server = none Check permissions on the folders (var and opt are both set to 755 with an owner and group of root. That may be what's causing your problems currently. Try going in to users and groups if the above still doesn't work and add one of your users to the root group and see what happens.
