O.k. - here's the setup (a second time - my subject header was lame
last time and probably got overlooked).
I've got a 10.3.5 xserve with the Windows services turned on and
authenticated into our domain. It's also registered with WINS and I
can "Search for Computers" and find the system (px4) and double-click
on it, or use the start-run \\px4\volume to get to the volume folder -
however I am prompted for the user name and password with each
different method of getting to px4. Now our Windows domain system is
still the old NT architecture - not AD. So does this impact the
ability to allow people to sign into px4 using the NT logins even if
the guest access is turned on for the specific directories on px4?
What I don't want to do is setup a general account for everyone to use
- I'd rather they use their NT login or guest login as I've got the
guest access turned on for that share on SMB.
If I use a login on the OD system to authenticate into px4 I get in
every time (probably because I'm using the OD system to authenticate) -
so that's why I'm suspect of the NT domain system giving me problems w/
the guest access into px4. I've also included the smb settings as I
have them configured right now.
What am I missing? I've read the CLI section on the SMB, but
apparently I'm still missing something.
