I'm stumped on this one. I'm trying to set up a network share on a friend's laptop. I've downloaded the Samba configurator. I created a folder under the user hierarchy, and I pointed the configurator to it as a share. It is writable and requires user credentials to log in.
The share shows up on my own LL machine, but I cannot log into it.
What's more, if I navigate through Browse Network on my friend's machine and go to the share in question, to access the folder I have to navigate the login dialog as if I were on an external machine. And the login fails just as it does on my own machine. It's as if the share were on a different machine. This user uses a password to log into the machine.
Something very basic is wrong here, but I fail to see what. I'm attaching the smb.conf file.
