Hi folks.

I've just failed to replace my FC7 server with a new FC9 server.

I'm using security = share and trying to connect from WinXP clients and also 
linux boxes using smbclient.

However I'm having trouble.  Initially I got:
[gary at larry2 ~]$ smbclient //larry2/autolog /USER:autolog
Domain=[LEEDS] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.3-0.20.fc9]
Server not using user level security and no password supplied.
Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman 
auth' is disabled
tree connect failed: SUCCESS - 0
[gary at larry2 ~]$             

So I added

	client lanman auth = yes

and now I get:

[gary at larry2 ~]$ smbclient //larry2/autolog /USER:autolog
Domain=[LEEDS] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.3-0.20.fc9]
Server not using user level security and no password supplied.
Receiving SMB: Server stopped responding
tree connect failed: Call timed out: server did not respond after 20000 
milliseconds
[gary at larry2 ~]$  

If I look in the /var/log/samba/log.ffff_10.1.1.113 I get at about line 280 
the following:

[2008/09/18 00:39:15.627787,  2, pid=3753, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)]

The system was a FC9 install onto a blank system, followed by a 'yum -y 
update'.

Anyone know what I need to do to fix this.

If I try to access a guest = yes share (i.e. not requiring a password, it 
works and I connect).
