Samba - pdc : Acces denied

[ajapa]

Hi guys,

I'm making a SAMBA - PDC, i have a linux computer and a XP-client. My samba files are showed in my XP-client so i think the samba must work. The problem now is that when i want to work with a domain(PDC) i need to fill in a username and password. This is root - root in my case. Bn i need to fill in a username and password. This is root - root in my case. But i get the error : ACCED DENIED.

My samba file looks like this:

smb.conf

smb.conf:
[global]
netbios name = SAMBASV
invalid users = root
...

You can't use root to login to samba. This is a good security procedure. Comment out that line for now, restart samba, and see if it does what you want. Then connect using an existing smbuser, like linda or user1. Once it works, then uncomment the line and restart samba again.

Also, your XP client should be XP Professional, not XP Home. If XP Home, you can't use a PDC under normal circumstances. The same is true for Windows Vista and Windows 7. If you have the home versions, you can only use workgroup level connection and security. It's the nature of the home-level beast.

So what i did, i removed the line, restart my samba. Went to my XP PROFESSIONAL set my

computername: PC1
domain: ELOICT.ICT.

Then i had that login screen,
username: Wouter
password: eloict

But now i had the problem that he doenst know that user?

Thx for the reply mate

When it asks for a username and password, try these:

SAMBASV\wouter
SAMBASV\Wouter
ELOICT.ICT\Wouter
ELOICT.ICT\wouter

If one of the last two works, your samba and PDC is working. If one of the first two works, samba is working and your PDC setup is wrong. If neither is working, check on usermapping, paying special attention to capitalization.

There are a bunch of good tutorials online about how to set up a PDC on samba.

None off these works, he still cant find the user. I dont know what you mean with usermapping?

I dont get this why this don't work, in my netwerklocations i see the files that are shared with samba. So my samba must work in theorie?

I tried the PDC login for every user..
