Re: AW: some general (samba) questions

Sorry - I should have said... the line must contain NO PASSWORDXXXXXX <-- and there must be 21 Xs after, then the second lot of Xs there must be 32.

I did as you told me, but it doesn't work.
The user's line also doesn't have the XXXXX... part, but just any other types.
Do I have to delete the user and recreate him to get him work with an empty password?

Edit /etc/samba/smbpasswd and change the user's line from
bob:3000:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U
]:LCT-363F96AD:
to
bob:3000:NO
PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U
