You might not have the permission to use the network resource

[ashusethi]

Hi,

I have configured Samba (Version 3.0.24) on a RHEL WS 3.0.
Its working fine when I try to access from XP and other versions of Windows.
When I try to Access from Windows 2003 it gives a permission error

"\\X.X.X.X is not accesible. You might not have the permission to access this network resource.Contact the administrator to find out if you have permissions

The request is not supported"

Now anyone has any idea about it.. It is perfectly fine when accessed from XP and others.. only Win2k3 is having an issue.

Is this a bug or something ?

post your /etc/samba/smb.conf file

oh...this is a 2003 issue. The security is different than 2000/xp....you have to alter something somewhere...hmmm...if i remember ill post what it is!

Yea I also think it has something to do with security only... Please let me know if u remember something about it...

[ashusethi]

Hmm... seems my problem is a really weird one... :-(

What about your smb.conf file?

[ashusethi]

Again.. I am able to access samba shares from XP and 2000 pros... but not from Win 2003 Only...

My SMB.CONF is as below.
#====== Global Settings =====================================
[global]

workgroup = Tango


server string = Samba Server

# This option tells cups that the data has already been rasterized
cups options = raw


# this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
# that connects
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log

# Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).
max log size = 50

# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
security = server
# Use password server option only with security = server
password server = tangodc02 tangodc01
realm = TANGO.COM


# Unix users can map to different SMB User names
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers


# Most people will find that this option gives better performance.
# See speed.txt and the manual pages for details
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192


# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names
# via DNS nslookups. The built-in default for versions 1.9.17 is yes,
# this has been changed in version 1.9.18 to no.
dns proxy = no

deadtime = 15
