smbpasswd -a login_name
But didn't you say you used webmin with this enabled?
yes, I did and have verified that users are already there and 'the same'
in webmin terms.
If the users are already in a windows domain you can just use security
= server and password server = your_domain_controller.
I am not using a PDC in the network, only clients on WinXP and the Cent
OS machine.
By the way, if you are setting up a new box from scratch just to serve
windows users you might like SME server (http://www.contribs.org). It
is based on Centos but all administration is through a simple web
interface.
As Cent is already built, I'm inclined to keep it.
Any idea why I can't seem to browse in anything other than 'share' mode?
The user mode keeps popping up an authentication box for which there
seems not to be a correct answer...meaning I re-auth, but I keep getting
the box, with <MACHINE>/ prepended to my username.
Thanks,
