Hmmm... let's see your smb.conf.
[global] workgroup = LYDGATE.LAN server string = Samba Server Version %v interfaces = lo, eth0, 192.168.0.0/24 map to guest = Bad User passdb backend = tdbsam # See comment below username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
I normally keep a minimal smb.conf, hand-edited. My LAN is a simple home one, no domain. This looks as though it was created through a gui - I believe I did examine it in kcontrol, so that's probably the reason. I don't recognise the passdb-backend line. I use smb-passwd and have never had a line like that before. Is it correct?
I think the passdb is fine. It means that the samba server keeps it's own password file.
I didn't see anything obvious.
Does testparm tell you anything?
Nothing at all. The above was taken from a testparm output.
What happens when you try to use smbclient? smbclient //localhost/ANNE -U anne

Part way through the morning I rebooted the server and samba has performed since then. I suspect SELinux problems. I had tried to implement it yesterday, then switched it out while troubleshooting. I forgot that SELinux is one thing that really needs a reboot. I'm going to try to get the firewall working satisfactorily first, before tackline SELinux again.
