From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6 Description of problem: November 15 patch samba-3.0.25b-1.el4_6.2 caused the valid users configuration option to stop working. Errors returned to smbclient error NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. Commenting out the valid users configurations result in good connect. Use of write list and read list work around the problem, I think. This extends to Windows PCs access to the disk shares with valid users configuration used. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): samba-3.0.25b-1.el4_6.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.use "valid users" options in /etc/samba/smb.conf 2.smbclient to disk share using valid users 3.error Actual Results: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE or similar Expected Results: smbclient access works Additional info:
This is expected and explained in the release notes, The user and group names must be fully qualified now. valid users = user will not work valid users = DOMAIN\user will
