    I cannot seem to connect to any smb share from my mac clients. Client is 10.4.2, file server is Windows Server 2003. When I try connect to server and type in:

    smb://server

    It will pull the menu with the list of shares no problem, but then when I try to authenticate, I type in the username and password as well as the windows domain in the appropriate fields, and hit ok, but then get the following error:

    Could not connect to the folder because the name or password is not correct. I am 100% sure the credentials are correct. To see if its just something with the connect to server app, I try from the command line:

    /sbin/mount_smbfs //user@server/share /users/kellen/shared/

    And I get:

    mount_smbfs: tree connect phase failed: syserr = Permission denied

    The account is a domain admin, so permissions aren’t an issue. I have SMB signing disabled on the server. Basically, Im stumped. Any help?

    In the windows logs or samba logs?

    Are your users set up in the Open Directory Master (LDAP)? Try to set password type to ‘Crypt’ instead of ‘Open Directory’. Looks like there is something wrong with your Password Server….
