Windows XP and Trustix 2.0
I've got some problems with my Windows XP machine and my Trustix 2.0 release.
I have installed Samba 2.2.8
Made shares with samba and all my client can connect to it even my Windows 2003 Server, but when I connect with Windows XP I've got the problems.
It says that the network path cannot be found. bla bla bla.
I haven't running a firewall on my Windows XP machine, but still I can't connect to my Windows XP machine from Linux.
When I use smbclient -L //192.168.0.4 i get the following message:
smbclient -L //192.168.0.4
added interface ip=192.168.0.5 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 192.168.0.4:139 (Connection refused)
Error connecting to 192.168.0.4 (Connection refused)
Connection to 192.168.0.4 failed
I thought it was my firewall setup I've used. But I used the following commands:
iptables -L -n
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
So I cleared the rulez before this, but I still can't connect to my firewall
I've restarted my smb server, Still can't connect.
Can please someone help me with this one, because I need this machine also in my Network. BTW: Linux box is not a PDCComputers Are Like Air Conditioners... They\'re both useless with Windows open!

What have you shared on your xp-box?? Usually you share a whole disk or a specific directory that you can access from the linux box... Try to share a specific directory or a whole disk and try to access it from the linux box.... like
If you have set authentication on the xp share you have to specifiy that on mount time with -o username=windowsusername,password=windowspassword also.Code:mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.4/my_share /mnt/myshare
You can look at my quick samba howto also for some tip on my site.... if you want.Regards

did u just post ur admin password? i woudl suggets u edit that post NOW., jsut change it to myPassword or something.
ur problem, is almost certainly caused by the xp box and not the linux config. Is it xp pro of home? in pro, there is a thing calle dsecurity policies. in here are several things abotu allowing differnt authentication formats. (eg NTLM1/NTLM2, encrypted passwords etc.) try changing some of them.

I've used this one:
mount -t smbfs -o username=administrator,password=myPassword //192.168.0.4/mp3 /home/users/mp3
I've changed the following options in WinXP Pro:
Send Unencrypted password to third-party smb servers: Enabled
I know you're not happy with my problem, but still I need it, because my parents want to store there documents, etc on another machine for security.Computers Are Like Air Conditioners... They\'re both useless with Windows open!
