Samba Problem on DU 4.0a

I have installed Samba and have successfully connected a Unix Drive. Great?

Now I am trying to set up one of the UNIX printers to work on the PC. The
documentation says nothing about a password being required but the system
prompts for one. I have provided it with every possible password and it
has rejected them all.

I have also tried issueing the command:

  smbclient -L bigserver

  which, according to the docs, is supposed to list my shares, but I get
  the following:

  Added interface ip=142.107.216.18 bcast=142.107.216.127 nmask=255.255.255.128
  Server time is Tue May 20 14:24:06 1997
  Timezone is UTC-4.0
  Domain=[PMOA32_GROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 1.9.16p11]
  SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRaccess (The requester does not have the
  necessary access rights within the specified context for the
  requested function. The context is defined by the TID or the UID.)
  Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password?
  Some servers insist that these be in uppercase

My smb.conf file looks like this:

workgroup = PMOA32_GROUP

[global]
   guest account = ftp
[tmp]
   comment = temporary files
   path = /tmp
   read only = yes
[homes]
  guest ok = no
  read only = no
[printers]
  guest ok = yes
  path = /remo3/tmp/printer
  writable = no
  printable = yes
  public = yes

I am new to Samba so any information is extremely welcome.


Thanks.

Richard
