Hey Bob--
Below is my smb.conf file as it stands now. Note the security setting. I
believe this is what makes the logon possible...but obviously I'm no expert.
The man page--the REALLY long one--explains this.
Here's what it says:
SECURITY = USER
This is the default security setting in Samba 2.2. With user
level
security a client must first "log on" with a valid username and
pass-
word (which can be mapped using the username map parameter).
Encrypted
passwords (see the encrypted passwords parameter) can also be used
in
this security mode. Parameters such as user and guest only if set
are
then applied and may change the UNIX user to use on this
connection,
but only after the user has been successfully authenticated.
Note that the name of the resource being requested is not sent to
the
server until after the server has successfully authenticated
the
client. This is why guest shares don't work in user level
security
without allowing the server to automatically map unknown users into
the
guest account. See the map to guest parameter for details on
doing
this.
See also the section NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD VALIDATION.
[global]
workgroup = FRANCESCA
netbios name = LinuxServer

hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 0
security = user
dns proxy = no
#============================ Share Definitions

Hope this is helpful!

Corey,
How do you log in from Windows? I've been trying to map a network drive and
it doesn't work but I can do everything from Nautilus going the other way.
What am I missing? Bob
