    Need help with Samba

    I am trying to setup Samba server again after a reformat so that another lucid box and my WD Tv Live can connect to this server.



    I can't get either computer to show up in "Network"
    Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.




    Code:
    #
    # Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux.
    #
    #
    # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
    # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
    # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which 
    # are not shown in this example
    #
    # Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as
    # commented-out examples in this file.
    #  - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting
    #    differs from the default Samba behaviour
    #  - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default
    #    behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important
    #    enough to be mentioned here
    #
    # NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
    # "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic 
    # errors. 
    # A well-established practice is to name the original file
    # "smb.conf.master" and create the "real" config file with
    # testparm -s smb.conf.master >smb.conf
    # This minimizes the size of the really used smb.conf file
    # which, according to the Samba Team, impacts performance
    # However, use this with caution if your smb.conf file contains nested
    # "include" statements. See Debian bug #483187 for a case
    # where using a master file is not a good idea.

    That's a start...
    Here is a How-To that might be helpful. Samba has evolved and I'm not sure I still understand parts of it - WINS/Winbind/etc.

    Re: Need help with Samba

    I don't know if this would be enough to actually make invisible your shares on the network but you do have some peculiarities in your smb.conf:

    encrypt passwords = No
    It should be:
    Code:
    encrypt passwords = Yes
    You also have this combination:
    map to guest = Bad User
    guest account = hplip
    All of your shares are set up to allow guest access so when the anonymous remote user tries to access the share they will be converted to user = hplip. So the question becomes does user = hplip have Linux access to the folders you are sharing.

    Code:
    ls -al /media
    The output of that command will tell us who has access.

    Re: Need help with Samba

    @lowan - followed the guide you provided - I think I followed that last time

    @Morbius1 - changed everything you said to change

    The hplip user shouldn't be there. The only user should be is "dan"
    Now....I can't open the samba administration to delete that user or do anything. Trying to google why it won't open either. I'll try reinstalling Samba I guess (I'll save the smb.conf first)

    here is the output from ls -al /media
    dan@Virage:~$ ls -al /media

    Re: Need help with Samba

    Somethings gone bonkers here.

    Your shares are pointing to these paths:
    path = /media/Media_/Movies
    path = /media/Media_/Tv
    path = /media/Media_/Music
    The problem is your ls -al /media doesn't have a /media/Media_
    So your shares are pointing to nothing. Is it at all possible that these Movies, Tv, and Music folders are on an external usb device which at the moment is not plugged in.

    I can't open the Samba gui

    When I run samba in terminal (sudo samba)

    I get these errors. I've put ' in front of the errors but samba still doesn't open

    I can connect to my server and all shares from my other lucid box but I have to go to "connect" and type everything in manually.

    My server and shares do show up in network but I get the error "failed to mount windows share" when I click on them.

    I really could careless for the password crap, can you tell me how to get rid of it?

    Code:

    Ya, for some reason "Media" without the underscore wasn't found. When I browsed to the folders it put the underscore after....weird....

    Now, Ive removed the underscore now and it my file sharing now works!
