Not able to access the samba share using local account from window server

  • 1.  Not able to access the samba share using local account from window server

    Posted Fri November 05, 2021 12:07 PM
    Hi,

    I am trying to configure samba on AIX, i am able to test the share using smbclient on server as well from the any other unix client, but when i am trying to access the server from any window machine which is a part of domain, then i am not able to login with the user credentials.

    On server:

    smbclient -L //ptestbox3/test -U sood_gaurav
    Enter AM\sood_gaurav's password:

    Sharename Type Comment
    --------- ---- -------
    test Disk test share
    IPC$ IPC IPC Service (ptestbox3)
    sood_gaurav Disk Home Directories
    SMB1 disabled -- no workgroup available

    On any unix client:
    [root@dihres02 /]# smbclient -L //ptestbox3/test -U sood_gaurav
    Enter SAMBA\sood_gaurav's password:

    Sharename Type Comment
    --------- ---- -------
    test Disk test share
    IPC$ IPC IPC Service (ptestbox3)
    sood_gaurav Disk Home Directories
    Reconnecting with SMB1 for workgroup listing.


    But while accessing the same from window, getting incorrect password. Below is the global configuration we have done on server.

    [global]
    workgroup = AM
    security = user
    min protocol = SMB2
    server string = ptestbox3

    [test]
    comment = test share
    path = /tmp/test
    public = yes
    writable = yes
    printable = no
    browseable = yes
    valid users = sood_gaurav

    Please help if any documents that can help to configure the samba using local or AD authenticaiton.

    Thanks in advance.


    Regards,
    Gaurav
