RE: smb.conf on Debian
David,
Not that I am aware of by default in Debian. RedHat, however, installs
ipchains (7.2) and iptables (7.3) which do have default rules to block
inbound netbios.
A few other things to check then:
do you have the following entriess in smb.conf?
[global]
encrypt passwords = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
How are you planning on authenticating the users, through an NT PDC or on a
per user basis? If on a per user basis, have you added the accounts with
smbpasswd -a "username" ?

I have not set up a firewall. Other machines on the network can get to the
web server. Is there a default rule that doesn't allow access on a samba
share without modification?
