I am sorry - I should have given more information.
The system is AOS 5.01
I installed the Net drive plugin for Dropbox which requires kLIBC, and if memory serves me, also kLIBC user manager, which I seem to remember was required for authentication at Dropbox. That was months ago.
I installed Samba server 3.3.16 on the machine using the WPI package - in order to exchange files with Windows NT on vbox, since vbox doesn't implement shared folders for Windows NT. I believe the install process prompted me for a password for root, which I entered.
Now when I try to add the Samba Users or Groups I am prompted for a password for root, and no password I enter works - they all come back with network access is denied.
I deleted pwd.db, master.passwd, spwd.db and because I was brave and desperate, master.passwd.bak and spwd.db.bak all in unixroot\etc, and ran the Samba reload configuration which went through part of the setup, including prompting me for a password for root, but I have the same issue.
When I start kLIBC user management I now get a dialog that says "Samba user management found. Continue?" The title of the dialog says: WarpIN: netlabs.org\Samba\SmbUsers\1\0\1\804
I have no idea why WarpIN would be involved at this point, it is not running. I cannot find any documentation on kLIBC user management. kLIBC user management has a button for edit user, but clicking that on root brings up a dialog that doesn't allow any changes to root. kLIBC user management, when in debug mode, shows a password for root but that password still does not work when trying to add or modify users in Samba.
I know this Samba version and install package (*WPI) works because I have it installed on my server (eComStation machine) and I used that same package to install on AOS which is where I am having problems.
So do I need to delete everything in UNIXROOT (and the Samba tentacles elsewhere) and start re-installing or is there a less nuclear option?
