samba

[nb000]

I dedicate this topic to the samba (server and client).

As a first question can someone post the original smd.conf file?
I installed the minimal etch on bubba.
When I realized, that samba is not in the minimum (good so),
I decied to install it. No problem yet. I got it simply installed.
Then I wanted to access bubba from windows.
Here came the problem: I could not do it
A popup windows asked for a user and pass,
but my linux login acc was not accepted.
Please help, anyone?

Adding a user to samba

1. sudo smbpasswd -a <username>
2. now you are prompted for the password
3. sudo /etc/init.d/samba reload
4. done

Not a big deal
