I have a CentOS 5 machine with Samba 3.5.2 installed. I'm trying to connect from both Windows XP and Windows Server 2008, and I'm getting nowhere. I currently have Samba configured to NTLMv2 only (this is a security requirement for my systems, I can't disable it on Windows) and for encrypted passwords. If I intentionally put in the wrong password while trying to connect from Windows, it just presents me with a new password dialog. If I type in the correct password, I get a dialog telling me password was incorrect.
I've attached my config below.
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = lemv-210
netbios name = lemv
# logs split per machine
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
# max 50KB per log file, then rotate
max log size = 1000
log level = 3
security = user
encrypt passwords = no
passdb backend = tdbsam
lanman auth = no
ntlm auth = no
client ntlmv2 auth = yes
client ntlm auth = no
client lanman auth = no
client plaintext auth = no
load printers = no
[homes]
