I am new to SLES and Samba so I need some help. I set up Samba on SUSE 11 successfully. I was able to create a share with no user restrictions which I managed to access from Windows. But I want to allow only a specific group of users to access the share. So I am using "valid users", "read list" and "write list". But once I add valid users to my config file, I am no longer able to access the share. Even though I entered the correct credentials, I am getting access denied error. I tried with root, with local user account, with AD domain user. None of this works. Can you give me a suggestion on how I can solve this. Here is my smb.conf file:
# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the
# samba-doc package is installed.
# Date: 2012-02-03
