Problem seeing Samba shares from Windows client Jan 19th 2013, 22:18 My home network has several windows machines and an openSUSE 12.2 machine connected together. I have Samba installed and working (sort of) on the Linux box. Here is the smb.conf file: # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented # version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the # samba-doc package is installed. # Date: 2012-08-08 [global] workgroup = HOME passdb backend = tdbsam printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache time = 750 cups options = raw map to guest = Bad User include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile logon drive = P: usershare allow guests = No add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$ domain logons = No domain master = No security = user wins support = No [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S, %D%w%S browseable = No read only = No inherit acls = Yes [profiles] comment = Network Profiles Service path = %H read only = No store dos attributes = Yes create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 [users] comment = All users path = /home read only = No inherit acls = Yes veto files = /aquota.user/groups/shares/ [groups] comment = All groups path = /home/groups read only = No inherit acls = Yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/tmp printable = Yes create mask = 0600 browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers write list = @ntadmin root force group = ntadmin create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 ## Share disabled by YaST # [netlogon] My problem is that shares from the Linux machine appear in Windows Network for about 5-15 minutes, but then, curiously, a Windows dialog box appears, asking for a username and password. From that point I cannot access any shares on the Linux box. I have users added via smbpasswd -a ..., and username/passwords are identical across all machines. Windows machines can see and access each other just fine. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you, Steve
