Windows SMB users cannot connect to 10.5.4 server

Hi all,
Have a server running 10.5.4 bound to AD and running an OD to provide management of the Macs. Pretty standard setup and haven't had any problems elsewhere with the same deployment. However we're having a problem with XP users connecting to SMB shares. Mac users can connect over AFP or SMB fine, XP users are getting a "Network path could not be found" error. What's more the errors in the SMB log on the server aren't too descriptive. We're getting a few broken pipe errors, but no indication of what's causing that. XP machines don't appear to be getting to the authentication stage.
Server is an Xserve with a Promise RAID, shares are on a 4TB partition, bound to AD (OD not running Kerberos). SMB setup seems to be correctly aware of the AD.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks

Is your SMB a Standalone or Domain Member?
I have a similar problem and noticed that if I change SMB from "Domain Member" to Standalone Windows users can connect. Now every so often Leopard Server will change SMB back to a Domain Member (automatically).
I have the Server bound to AD. AFP works for the Macs no matter what. Mac Users authenticate to AD and mount the share. However if they try to use SMB, it fails for the Macs as well if SMB is a Domain Member.
I would like to stop Leopard from not reverting back or fix the "domain member" problem.
The fact that I can connect while it's a Standalone suggests, to me, that it's not a permissions problem. As well the failure carries to the Mac side means it's not a Windows issue.

  • Windows XP User cannot connect to OS X Server... Keeps asking for password.

    I have made my iMac G5 into a server. It is running OS X Server 10.5.7 with all updates. Only use it for file sharing. Have it setup as a standard server. Only have two users and can verify that SMB is running through the Server Admin application.
    I use XP Pro with SP3 on my MacBook Pro. Both machines have relativley fresh installs that are unaltered. Both the windows side of my laptop as well as the SMB are set to the same workgroup.
    When I am in XP I do the following:
    1. Double click on My Network Places
    2. In the My Network Places Window I click on the left hand column: View Workgroup Computers
    3. I see my server: iMac Server (Imacserver)
    4. Double click that icon... get a user login window with the title: Connect to imacserver.private
    5. Input my user name and password (the same that I would use while in Leopard... which works fine) - Click OK.
    Here is what I don't understand.
    6. The login window comes back after about 10-15 seconds. As if the login was incorrect to try again.
    7. The user name field now has in front of my name the name of the 'PC' forward slash my user name?? For example: MACPC24335\username
    Why can I not connect to my server... in leopard it is very seemless and works fine... I feel that I am over looking something. Any thoughts or ideas as to why this is not working?
    Thank you for your time.

    Try this on your PC:
    Start->Run...->Open:\\<ipadressofyourmac>\<sharename>
    You will be prompted for your username and password.
    Or
    'My Computer'->'Tools'->'Map network drive...'
    enter:
    \\<ipadressofyourmac>\<sharename>
    in the 'Folder' field.
    Click 'Connect using a _different user name_.'.
    Enter your server username and password.
    Click 'OK'.
    Click 'Finish'.

  • Windows 8 user cannot connect to public OS X Lion share as Guest, keeps asking for a password even though the folder is public?

    As title suggests...
    OS X Mountain Lion public share works fine for Mac's but as a guest from Windows its adamant it wants a password. If I use proper credentials it will allow me in the public share from the windows PC but I dont want to add creditinatials it should be an open folder to Network (LAN) WORKGROUP users.
    OS X Guest account is set to "allow guests to connect to shared folders"
    The Public folder is set in "Sharing" as READ ONLY everyone.
    Mac's can access the share without needing credentials.
    Windows PC asks for Username and Pass (have tried Guest (no password) or just pressing enter (no details)

  • Users cannot connect to Open Directory Leopard server

    Just testing Leopard server and running into all sorts of problems...
    Clean install of Leopard Server running DNS, AFP and Open Directory.
    Set up DNS first and checked both forward and reverse look-up was correct.
    Promoted to Open Directory master from Standalone.
    Created two test user accounts (without Home directories) and gave them access to a specific sharepoint.
    Setup LDAP on the client machine (Leopard client) and could see the user accounts in the Directory app.
    Try to log in.....'username or password incorrect'.
    Check the OD logs and cannot find any reference to the attempted log-in.
    I understand that it appears that user accounts require a Home Directory in Leopard, regardless of whether you actually want one (I don't). I tried creating a home directory using Workgroup Manager but as noted in other threads, the 'create home directory' button doesn't work.
    I then created a home directory via the command line for one of the user accounts but am still unable to log-in.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    This may be a stupid question but have you run sudo chown on the user's home directory after creating it?
    I had the same problem and my solution is posted here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1290158&tstart=0
    Let me know if that works. If not, we'll work on it together.

    I have the same problem although I upgraded from Lion Server to Mountain Lion Server. The error appears to go hand in hand with this error.
    userInit: CFPreferences: user home directory for user kCFPreferencesCurrentUser at /Network/Servers/fullyqualifieddomainname/Users/user is unavailable. User domains will be volatile.
    I've read a number of things to try. A lot of people point to DNS being a problem, but I'm confident this is correct in my environment.

    any help will be great thank you

    All I can tell you is that I am having the exact same problem with an iPod Touch and that I was running iTunes 9.2.1.5 at the time it happened. Upgraded to 10.0.0.68 hoping that it might help, but no joy.
    I don't want to do a restore just now since the Touch seems to be working fine. Restore will have to wait until I have plenty of free time in case something goes wrong.

  • Sharing only users cannot connect to Lion Server

    Dear all,
    I stumbled across a funny problem, that I tried to resolve all day. I just wanted to add a sharing only user for my girlfriends new MacBook that she could use to connect to a shared Time Machine Volume.
    If I add a new standard user, this user can connect to my server via finder (connect as...) and see the shared drives. If the same user tries to connect to the Time Machine Backup Volume via the settings dialog, it receives an error message (OSStatus-error 5).
    If I add a sharing only user, this user cannot connect via finder or Time Machine (same error). The clients console states the following error message:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/NetAuthAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/NetAuthAgent[2471]      AFP error -5018 mapped to EIO
    Does anybody have an Idea?

    That is my point.  Yes, Apple still lets you add users via users and groups in system preferences but that is not how you should be adding users.  I've seen nothing but trouble when that option is used to add users and I believe that the Lion server docs say to not use that.  If you are using lion server why not use it the way it was meant to be.  Just create a account in OD and only give her access to the Time Machine Service and none of the others.

  • Windows AD user cannot use Promotion management, Why?

    A Procedure is distributed by SAP  how to Use ”Promotion Management”  in a OTAP/ DTAP street.
    See Chapter/Secton 05 of this document: https://archivesaptechedhandson.hana.ondemand.com/contentArchive/AP263_Exercises_VHO_FINAL.pdf
    This is a very good/useful   procedure. This procedure works  with an “Enterprise”  Account. 
    In our environment we ONLY work with  “Windows AD”  accounts. (to keep users management very straight forward.)
    We do not get the procedure working with “Windows AD” account.
    Our procedures stops at Section:  “07.3 Add to VM”:
    The selected webi document, within the promotion Job, is not getting "checked in" in  Version Management.
    After that all other steps are useless.
    Windows AD user cannot use Promotion management, but Why?
    (If we use version managment on the individual webi report, with a windows AD user everyting works fine)

    Sebastian,
    you showed us the right direction.
    We run SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 2 Patch 3.
    In SAPBO4.1 we had to extend the properties of 2 services:
    AdaptiveJobServer and the AdaptiveProcessingServer.
    Now we can use windows active directory for promotion management,
    thanx.

  • User cannot connect to backend system with user J2EE_ADMIN.

    Right, I'm going to try something, if this works, then this'll probably fix a lot of iTunes problems.
    1: Make sure your whole iTunes database is backed up.
    2: Uninstall iTunes, then run "Revo Uninstaller", this will remove ALL traces of iTunes from you computer, not your library.
    I've found out that when un-installing or re-installing over a previous version of iTunes will carry over some problems from previous versions, or even create problems. Registry leftovers can be a problem also. Completely removing iTunes using "Revo Uninstaller" then re-installing will have the same effect as installing iTunes from a fresh OS install. Typically iTunes should be problem free when installed totally fresh.
    3: Re-install the correct version of iTunes fresh and try again.

    On a clean install domain member (Windows 2012), I am trying to setup System center 2012 VMM:
    1. I installed the prerequisites as instructed during the pre-setup phase of the installation then rebooted the server (SQL Server 2012 was installed and services seem to be all started properly and SQL Configuration Manager starts as well).
    2. After reboot, logged again with domain admin account and Windows update installed right away SP1 for SQL server 2012. Then I rebooted again.
    3. Restarted the installation process and left default values. At the "Database configuration" step, I am leaving everything by default as well and I am getting error: "Setup cannot connect to the specified SQL Server instance. Ensure that
    the server name..."
    4. Tried different credentials, tried using port 1433 with no effect.
    Am I missing something????
    Thanks.

    Definitely be sure to connect with the "ServerName\InstanceName,PortNumber". If you don't reference a port number it will try 1433 and then will connect via a dynamic port number. It is best in my opinion to always specify a specific port for each instance
    to listen on in the SQL Server Configuration Manager so that you can open the fewest number of ports in the Windows firewall.
