Hi,

A number of students are unable to connect to our print server from
their Windows 10 client laptop without entering a user/pass. More
precisely: If you try to connect manually to \\IP it says "Username or
password incorrect" and prompts to enter a username/password. Despite
the server setting to map all users to guest (see further down). I did a
packet dump and the client pc asks NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE, server replies
with an NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE and then the client pc simply hangs up (TCP RST).

Now the (more) interesting bit: all this only happens when you use a
"microsoft account", not if you use a local account. With a local
account on the laptop start -> run -> \\IP will get you connected
without asking for a user / password and show the shared printers and
shares, as expected.

Any ideas? Is this fixable on the server-side? Otherwise if that is not
possible, fixable on the client-side while still permitting microsoft
accounts?

Do your users exist on the printserver ?

If you look in 'man smb.conf' under 'map to guest (G)' you will find
this:

Bad User - Means user logins with an invalid password are
rejected, unless the username does not exist, in which case it
is treated as a guest login and mapped into the guest
account.

So, if the user does exist and uses an incorrect password it will be
rejected, but if the user doesn't exist, it will be SILENTLY mapped to
guest.

Right, I understand what you are after, but no: the user does not exist
on the server.

Also, looking at the packet dump, the username isn't even sent (yet).

Best regards,

Bram
