XP / Samba authentication
I have implemented Samba with XP workstations on a number of situations,
without login problems.
I have now come across a site where I can log into Samba from a win2k
laptop without problem, but their XP Pro workstations do not log into Samba.
These workstations were previously set to NOT ask for a login on boot
up, and were mapping a drive on a win2k server, all automatically.
I have set up a user on the XP Pro box, and given that user membership
of ALL groups. I also have that user/password set up on debian/samba.
When I try to map a drive to the samba server, windows asks for the
login name/pass, but does not login.
The machines name is XXX
User name is jimmy
the windows login rejects the login, and redisplays the login dialog
with the username changed to XXX\jimmy
Any ideas please ???
