Wired Network

Hello,

The user name to use is the one belonging to Ubuntu.
But you may have to add the domain or workgroup of authentification in the form
usdo@domain to authenticate from your windows box in order to let it know the authentification realm belong the Linux box.

If no domain/workgroup is given, Windows tryes to get it's kherberos authentification ticket from its own domain and it will not find any, if that user only belong to the Linux box domain/workgroup.

If boths your linux and Windows shares the same domain/workgroup, the windows box declare itself as the domain controler, and it is absolutely needed boths Linux and Windows have the very same user names and maybe passwords.

Regards,

Thank you for your answer Lea

I have tried for 2 hours by entering all combinations of username &
passwords from my XP and Ubuntu systems and I cannot achieve the correct
combination.

Sorry
