I install samba 3.0.23 in fedora core 4,

I've finish configuring samba, I can access the samba server from any computer(windows xp pro) in my network,

The problem is, i cannot access my shared folder.

This is my smb.conf file

[shared]

comment = shared document

path = /shared

valid users = lerry

browsable = yes

 

I already create lerry account in my linux mechine using these command

 

[root@Testing ~]# useradd lerry

[root@Testing ~]# passwd lerry

New UNIX password:(lerry)

Retype new UNIX password:(lerry)

passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

[root@Testing ~]# smbpasswd lerry

New SMB password:(lerry)

Retype new SMB password:(lerry)

[root@Testing ~]#

 

Then I try to access shared folder and it ask for username and password,

I entered

username:lerry

password:lerry

but still cannot access the file,

Thank you for your reply magikman..

Settle with that one, but I have another problem in roaming user profile..

I try to do something like, when I logon to other computer using my username and password, the nickname(eg.Munyitś Account) that displayed on start menu is the same like the one when I logon to my computer.

Means, roaming my nickname(eg. Munyitś Account)..

 

I can move my profile from one computer to another computer when logon using my username and password, but this one I dont know how to do it..

 

my smb.conf

 

[global]

.......

logon home = \\%L\%U\profiles

logon path=\\%L\profiles\%U

....

 

[profiles]

comment=user profile

path=/etc/samba/profiles

writable=yes

browsable=no

read only=no

create mask = 0600

directory mask = 0700

 

Can you give me some clue on how to do it...?

thanks... :)
