I have a win 7 machine connected to a domain (say TEST). There is a domain administrator account and a local administrator account (both are enabled).

if I run smbclient with the domain administrator's credentials then it works fine:

smbclient -L //mytestmachine -U Administrator -W TEST

I want to be able to log in with the local credentials though:

smbclient -L //mytestmachine -U Administrator -W WORKGROUP

Note, that the default workgroup name on win 7 is WORKGROUP. This worked before on XP but now I just keep getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. Any ideas?

Try to enable wins support in /etc/samba/smb.conf:

wins support = yes

Alternatively, you can set up Samba to use an existing wins server in /etc/samba/smb.conf:

wins server = <ip-address>

Restart the samba daemon for option one, this is not needed for option two:

/etc/init.d/smbd restart

Worked on Linux Mint 11 and Samba Client 3.5.8.
