Its so seldom that I have to work on samba config I forget between |
| 2 |
times whatever steps are needed. |

This time I just copied an old config over to a new[ish] gentoo |
| 5 |
install. |

Now attempting to set smbpasswds. First I tried to give a windows |
| 8 |
client user name (but no such user on gentoo OS). Failed with message |
| 9 |
user not found .... |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Ok.. I think I recall somekind of mapping to do for aliasing windows |
| 12 |
user to a user on gentoo server. |
| 13 |

So next tried an actual Gentoo user name: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
smbpasswd reader |
| 17 |
root # smbpasswd reader |
| 18 |
New SMB password: |
| 19 |
Retype new SMB password: |
| 20 |
Failed to find entry for user reader. |
| 21 |
Failed to modify password entry for user reader |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Where is smbpasswd looking for an entry for reader? |
