some note of my side.

Problem started when i tried to connect to a Samba4 machine (ubuntu 14.04.1) from a 12.04. I had the password loop on the 14.04. to try and reach the 12.04 (samba 3.6.3-2).
So I thought, I update the 12.04 with samba4. Now I have the password loop on that machine aswell. Keeps on asking for a password.

Uninstalled and purged samba. Reinstalled samba 3.6.3-2 , all to no avail.
Now I dont have samba installed, and trying to reach a network share from "Connect to Server" it still doesnot accept my password.

Looking at the samba.cfg file on the nas, running Alt-F (http://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f) i only find a file where the shares are defined.

Desperate to solve this VERY annoying problem.
