I ahve been struggling with this one for ages and still cannot get it to work.
The issue is of course XP.
In haace created a samba user and smbpasswd - fine. Its the same as the one I log onto the Win XP pc, and there is a user setup for Linux that is also the same.
Workgroup is the same, and I ahve setup a public directory, aswell as left the Home one still in smb.conf.
Encrypted passwords is set.
In Windwows Network Neighbourhood I can see the workgroup, and the Linux pc. When I click on it I get asked for a username and password, wont let me not enter one. OK, so I tyoe in the username that I have entered in smbpassword and smbuser. NO - wont let me in. I know this is a XP issue as never had this issue with Win2k.
Can anyone help?
