OK, too

Remind me to post my SQL Server chamberpot of horrors sometime... \r\n\r\n Apparently, a domain user (eg: DOMAIN\\USERNAME) cannot use password authentication. So create a new user. Naturally, "USERNAME", matching "DOMAIN\\USERNAME" isn't clearly distinguished by SQL Server from the domain user. So delete that and create a fresh account and set a password. \r\n\r\n \r\n \r\n$ sqsh -S 192.168.1.40 \r\nsqsh-2.1 Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Scott C.

Of course, if you go into Samba without understanding LAN Manager (the most brain dead NOS of all time, and so something that is easy to understand), then you will get out of it what you took into it. The only vitally important parameters are security (share, user, domain) and OS level (for NetBIOS browser elections). The actual problems happen with synchronizing users on the domain vs. UNIX. That is simple with smbadduser. If you remember that ALL LAN Manager networking is really peer-to-peer, you've got it licked. There was a parallel in the days of NT 3.51 Server, which was really the same binary thing as NT 3.51 Workstation. By editing the registry, you could convert WS into Server or even a DC - really, the same thing as security=share vs. security=user vs. security=domain. It's really quite trivial. Oh that was a hateful operating system. Bring it on, game boy. -drl

Post #102,271 by tseliot 5/16/03 1:04:58 PM Reply	As Petah said... Look into winbind. You can set up Windows users as Unix users, in the style of username = "MYDOMAIN+arkadiy". You can then log on as that user on the unix box, and winbind will hand off the authentication on the share to your Windows domain controllers/AD. Many fears are born of stupidity and ignorance - Which you should be feeding with rumour and generalisation. BOfH, 2002 "Episode" 10
