I am using debian 4.0 Ande just recently i upgraded to debian 5.0 Debian 4.0 uses Samba 3.0.24 Debian 5.0 uses Samba 3.2.5 Since the new version(3.2.5) I can not connect from a Win98 Client to the server Or from the server to the client. If I try it with nautilus from the server to the Windows98 machine; i get as far that i can click on the share - i have to give the username/domein/password. When i give the password, i get an empty directory and an message I cant give the contents, sorry. If i try to reach the server from the win98 machine i can click on the server name and get than a screen with \\Fredericktown\IPC$ and then password Because i dont know the password of ipc$, i dont come any closer. In version 3.0.24 It worked just fine. Can you tell me if there is something to do about this. Or is Windows 98 and ME not any longer supported ???? Thanks ==== My smb.conf lookes like this: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) # Date: 2008/06/29 20:11:34 [global] workgroup = THUIS server string = %h server netbios name = Elisabethtown # obey pam restrictions = Yes security = user passdb backend = tdbsam # passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u # passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . # syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 # dns proxy = No # panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d # invalid users = root cups options = raw printing = cups username map = /etc/samba/smbusers [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No writeable = Yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba create mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes printable = Yes browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/printers [Laserjet_6MP] comment = Laserjet_6MP path = /var/spool/samba guest ok = Yes printable = Yes # available = No [Deskjet_930C] comment = Deskjet_930C path = /var/spool/samba guest ok = Yes printable = Yes # available = No [download] comment = ftp map path = /home/ftp writeable = yes browseable = yes guest ok = yes [upload] comment = upload map path = /home/ftp/upload writeable = yes browseable = yes guest ok = yes [data] comment = data path = /var/data writeable = yes browseable = yes guest ok = no
Try setting "lanman auth = yes". You might have to re-do the "smbpasswd <user>". Please re-open if this does not help. Volker
Thx for the quick respons end the help ... I Have added in [global] lanman auth = Yes I tested the config with testparm --> OK I restarted samba and ... I can browse with Windows Explorer from the Win98 host to the SMB shares That part is OK The part that does not function is. When i browse from the SMB host I can go to Network Servers I see the Win98 Server (Win98 with password protected dirs, not on user) I can open the server and see the shares by name If i try to open a share I get a inlogscreen (username, domein, password) --> (username is inlogname on win98; domain = workgroup; password= sharepassword) After that i get the message I could not display contents off map. In 3.0.25 I could open this map and see the contents. So I cannot open the shares on the Win98 machine. Can you help me with this one Thx
Can you add network traces of both attempts against 3.0.25 and 3.2.5? You can find a guide how to create network traces under http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Capture_Packets Thanks, Volker
Volker, I did send the traces directly to you. If you didnot receive them let me know and I will send them. Erik
On the Elisabethtown (samba 3.0.24) I did a smbtree -b and i get the following output: See error on the Enterprise (Win98) THUIS \\FREDERICKTOWN Fredericktown server \\FREDERICKTOWN\IPC$ IPC Service (Fredericktown server) \\FREDERICKTOWN\data data \\FREDERICKTOWN\upload upload map \\FREDERICKTOWN\download ftp map \\FREDERICKTOWN\Deskjet_930C Deskjet_930C \\FREDERICKTOWN\Laserjet_6MP Laserjet_6MP \\FREDERICKTOWN\print$ Printer Drivers \\ENTERPRISE Ceylon_P3_550 cli_rpc_pipe_open: cli_nt_create failed on pipe \srvsvc to machine ENTERPRISE.

And now I can see and open the files, like in 3.0.24 It is working now like in 3.0.24 There still is a that non specific error code. So again one step closer Thx
Isn't this more a cosmetic problem then? It works, but the fallback from named pipes gives an error message? Volker
It works fine now. Its the only server giving this errorcode. It works. so its not a very big issue. It would be fine if i did get the correct output. But as said - it works... Erik
Closing, it seems to work. The error message is just cosmetic.
