Might also try ..#smbpasswd -a <username> Adds the user to the smb password list.
Hi All,
thanx for that, as I seem to have progressed some. I now get an error stating that the path doesn't exist. It certainly does as I did a pwd, copied/pasted it into the smb.conf file. I chose, Connect using a different username, and input the username/password that exists on the Linux box, and that also has permissions to access in smb.conf and also has been added to smbpasswd now as you suggested. I see two logs, 10.0.0.1.log, which is empty, and home-hehbbzsuy7.log which mentions,
[Date omitted by me as I'm not coming from the offending box] smbd/service.c:make_connect(800) home-hehbbzsuy7 (10.0.0.1) couldn't find service home
I get that, because after first failing as racket/password, it gives a prompt to login as the Windows Hostname, which is not what I want.
Cheers.

To access the share you have in the sample smb.conf earlier you would need; \servername\myshare
(You don't list a servername in your example)
