Hi all, I have recently installed Suse 9.1 and Im having major problems with browsing and authenticating to our samba server which is configured as our primary domain controller and file server. I am using KDE 3.3 When I first installed suse I configured the smb client under YAST, when I first tried to join the domain I was succesful. When I tried to browse the network, konqueror immediately popped up saying " Internal error". I tried joining the domain from the console and I had no problems, I can even view the shares on the samba server from the console. I then tried a number of times to rejoin the domain and constantly received errors. I thought this was perhaps a bug with YAST and I did a complete online update. When I now try join the domain, the domain does not appear under YAST if I click the browse button. If I manually type in the domain and click join I dont get prompted for authentication but I dont receive any errors either. I can still manually joing the domain from the console and can still see all the shares fine from the console. I tried joining the domain from the console and then browsing the network from the desktop but I still receive the same Konqueror internal error. As a last resort I tried mounting the shares using the console with smbmount //server/share /mountpoint -o username=username,password=password, this works fine and I am able to browse the shares from the desktop using konqueror but I am not given the privileges to access the files that my username should. It is as though I have mounted the shares but my username has not been authenticated. I have proved this by the fact that I can access shares that do not have user specific privileges, I get denied access to the ones that do. The rest of our network works perfectly with the same usernames on our windows pcs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried searching google and have found others with the same problem but so far have found no solution.
