I haven't been able to get smbclient backups to work via a centos-5"client". I've had them working for a long while with centos-4, but theexact same config just plain doesn't work in centos-5. I've tried theversion of amanda included in centos-5 (2.5.0p2), my old standby(2.4.5p1), and the most recent (2.5.2p1). They all fail fundamentallyin the same way, with a message saying:
samba access error: //$WINHOST/$SHARE: session setup failed:NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE: returned 1
I'm starting to suspect the samba version (3.0.23c) to be at fault. Hasanyone else encountered this? Anybody worked around it?


I have no problem using the centos-5 smbclient to connect to PC's.
(I did have some problems to connect to Vista-PC's, even with older
samba-versions; but that's easily solved by tweaking the registry.)

   $ smbclient --version
   Version 3.0.23c-2.el5.2.0.2

And using it through the command line:

   smbclient //host/share  -U username -W workgroup

does it give the same error?  (and you're sure the password etc is
correct?)
