Samba help request

Ask Fedora

I’m moving from NFS to Samba. I keep getting logon failure/access denied. I can’t figure out what step I missed. I’m hosting the share on an old computer running F42 server other computers are running F42 KDE. Any help is appropriated.

From smb.conf
[global]
log file = /var/log/samba/%m
log level = 1
server role = standalone server
passdb backend = tdbsam

[Share_Name]
Comment = comment
path = path
guest ok = no
writable = yes
browsable = yes
hosts allow = IP_Range/24
valid users = @smb_group

SELinux commands I’ve ran.
sudo chcon -R -t samba_share_t mysharepath
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t ‘mysharepath(/.*)?’
setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw on

smbclient //IPAddress/Share_Name -U myusername
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

Did you create the user account? See man smbpasswd for details.

Yes I did. Maybe I did it incorrectly. I’ll look that up, thanks.

That’s the step I missed. Thanks!!!
