I've had Samba configured and running on my FreeBSD 3.4 machine for a while now and everything's been working great, well.., at least for me. One of my co-workers would like to have access to my FreeBSD machine via Samba but every attempt I've made at getting her the proper access has failed. I've deleted and recreated an account for her that matches my account and have included her in the smb.conf file as a valid user and allowed host, using the SWAT utility. I've also included her network name and IP address in my /etc/hosts file. She's trying to access my FreeBSD machine from WIN NT 4.0 SP6 and I've edited her registry and added the "enable plaintext passwords" entry. If I get on her machine, go into network neighborhood and double-click my FreeBSD machine, I get a login prompt and I can sign on and gain access with no problems. However, when she try's signing on with the login name and password I've created for her, it won't let her in. I've even reset her password a couple of times, using SWAT. Could somebody help me with this problem? I've looked through the Samba documentation on my system and couldn't find anything that helps.
