samba being screwy

I've configured samba according to this guide. It seems that it's rejecting any connection attempts:

gentoo mydomain # /etc/init.d/samba restart
 * Service samba stopping
 * Service samba stopped
 * Service samba starting
 * Service samba started
gentoo mydomain # smbclient -L localhost
Enter root's password:
Domain=[SAMBA] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.4.9]
Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman auth' is disabled
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

smb.conf:

Code: Select all

[global]
   workgroup = samba
   server string = Samba Server
   security = share
   hosts allow = 10.1.1.
   load printers = yes
   printcap name = cups
   printing = cups
   guest account = pcguest
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   interfaces = lo net.eth2
   bind interfaces only = yes

[public]
   comment = File share
   browseable = yes
   path = /var/ftp
   public = yes
   valid users = chris miguel
   create mode = 0766
   guest ok = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no

Have a look at this link, it looks like you may have a conflict with your "auth =" setting

Still unable to connect from Win7.

Code: Select all

gentoo ~ # smbclient -L localhost
Enter root's password:
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.4.9]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        ---------       ----      -------
        public          Disk      File share
        IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba Server)

Code: Select all

[global]
   client lanman auth = yes
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   server string = Samba Server
   security = share
   hosts allow = 10.1.1.
   guest account = pcguest
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   interfaces = lo net.eth2
   bind interfaces only = yes
   local master = no
[public]
   comment = File share
   browseable = yes
   path = /var/ftp
   public = yes
   valid users = chris miguel
   create mode = 0766
   guest ok = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no

If I remove lo from the interfaces line, samba will fail to start. I don't know if I actually need to remove it, though.
When I try to connect to \\10.1.1.2\public, Win7 just says it cannot access it.

EDIT: I'm willing to use user-level security rather than share-level. I only changed because I was having issues with that too...

Okay, I'm an idiot. It should have been eth2 instead of net.eth2 on the interfaces line of my smb.conf. Apparently it was never listening on eth2 because of it!

Still can't connect though. Now it asks for a user and password (it shouldn't need to?!?). I try WORKGROUP\chris with the password I set for that user, and it fails to authenticate.
