Cant connect to cifs shares

  • Hi All,


    I hope you can help Iv been banging my head against a brick wall for 2 weeks now.


    I have a share and have 2 users that can access it the first user cant connect at all, the second user can fine, this is from a Win7 client its the same across 2 or 3 windows clients.


    All i keep getting is bad/username password error on the windows box.


    I have checked the smb.conf and the permissions are identical for both users, however 1 works and the other doesnt.


    I have deleted the faulty user and setup again but am getting no joy.


    Any tips for me would be grateful.


    Thanks

  • Double check your ACL settings. The proper way is to have a group to be allowed to read/write in ACL, then add those users to that group. Avoid applying permissions per user unless absolutely needed. That way you don't need to worry about individual permissions.
