Samba Server Security issue

Post by rmuhammadali »

Dear All,
I am using samba as a server security. my samba ver is version: 3.0.10-1.4E.9 and my configuration is as follow:

# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Redhat Samba Server
security = SERVER
password server = 192.168.0.101
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
dns proxy = No
wins support = Yes
ldap ssl = no
idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
idmap gid = 16777216-33554431
hosts allow = 192.168.4.
cups options = raw

I am getting authentication issue, and getting this error in my samba log file

[2009/12/22 13:55:56, 1] auth/auth_server.c:check_smbserver_security(363)
password server 192.168.0.101 rejected the password

Please help me resolving this issue.

Dear rmuhammadali,

try change this
security = SERVER to security = user or domain

and check if you have this line also

encrypt passwords = yes
