Thanks in advance
Teo,
I am also trying to setup a file and app server for a nonprofit org. I
am using the secure setup smb.conf configuration from samba by example.
This is on a FC3 fully updated Linux server.
This is the problem:
I am able to smbclient into the windows boxes, without any problem. And
I have matched tcp and udp ports in the iptables and windows firewall.
When I explore my network neighborhood Windows can see the Linux server,
But for some reason I cannot open the samba shares on the Linux side. I
get a message saying "I don't have permission to access the server". I
have added all users using smbpasswd -a and enabled them with -e even
for root. I have recently turned off seLinux to no effect.
Any ideas?
Attached is my /etc/smb.conf:
