Hi folks

Just a quick question on samba, thats a little windows related. Im just messing around with configuration of samba at the moment and want to test different users from the same XP box. How do i make XP not use the previous successful logon credentials? One option is to change the samba password so that the previous credentials are no longer valid but its a bit cumbersome.

Easiest way I can think of is to restart the computer browser service on the xp box - this will remove any cached credentials.

you can batch it with

Code:

# net stop "computer browser" && net start "computer browser"

- then all you have to do is double click the batch file/

Hmmm... Ok, stop and restart the Workstation service.
