Subject: RE: [ale] accessing my linux box from a windows machine

As my user it asked for old password then new password, then said
Machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the anonymous password change: Error was : No
such user.

As root it just asked for a new password then :
Failed to find entry for user root.
Failed to midify the password entry for user root.

How do I set up a user?

On your linux box, you have to add a samba user and password.

I believe the command is smbpasswd

&gt;Groups on Samba 3.0.7-5-SUSE(linux)
&gt;profiles on Samba 3.0.7-5-SUSE(linux)
&gt;users on Samba 3.0.7-5-SUSE(linux)
&gt;
&gt;No matter which one I click it asks me for a logon and password. I've
&gt;tried my normal login &quot;ringo&quot; and that password as well as root and
that
&gt;password.
&gt;Is there something else I need to do ?
