You need to have Linux local/NIS accounts match your Windows accounts.

The username & password logged into the Windows machines have to exist on the redhat box. Ie if you are logged into the windows box as xaoi with password secret, you have to have an account on the linux box called xiao with password secret.

Hi,

   Here is my smb.conf, for your reference

----- /etc/samba/smb.conf ----
workgroup = <your Windows domain>   <====
server string = RedhatPC  Samba server
security = SERVER    <================
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = <Your Active Directory server's OP address>    <=====
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *Passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*
unix password sync = Yes
----------------------

Besides, you need to have/create Windows' username/password on your Linux box.

No.

you need the sign or seal registry file. look for it on your linux machine, copy it to your windows XP, and then XP will be able to log to the linux via samba.

why is this? well, it is because microsoft has several ways to connect. all of them doing the same, but samba team choose to support only one (the best one). so please run the signorseal.reg on your XP and you should be working okay after that.

What version of Samba are you running, there were some fixes to winbind that addressed a couple of issues like this.  I would recommend upgrading to 3.0.7 or later.

any news?

Hi, The Issues have been solved, I re-do all the setting and find the answer from the books.
The browseable should always set to "YES".
Thank you.
