Hello

In the new 64 bit Mageia 4 I can't add Samba users with DrakSambaShare, as the user name list is disabled. Any ideas how to fix this or how to get around it? In the early beta version it worked fine.

Works just fine here. What security model did you select when setting up the samba server?

Please show the output of

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep samba
grep -v -e ^# -e ^\; /etc/samba/smb.conf

Looks normal. And samba is running?

(The dots mean the same error messages are repeating.)
Earlier I installed an early beta version of Mageia 4 and added a pile of Samba users to it. Now that the OS has been updated to this official version, the username list is disabled also in this OS.
