has anyone been using cachefs with 6.x series? i have tried using it but i keep getting hung processes after 2 weeks. ATM, running 6.3 but was curious if its more stable on Centos 6.5? -- --- Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.--

Hi I use messages (net send...., smbclient -M ....) to let a server dial to my provider, or to let him fetch my mial. This worked until I switched to 1.9.18p3. My server is named FGP, my group FGP_GROUP. One of the nt-clients is named SAUSCHNELL - and one of the users on SAUSCHNELL is names fgp - like the server. Since I use 1.9.18p3 all the messages sent to FGP from a NT-computer are actually

cvs code from this morning (about 9am PST) breaks on slackware 7.1 w/ gcc 2.95.2.1 with an undefined reference to session_setup_sia in session.o. this seems to be the culprit here: #ifdef HAVE_OSF_SIA #else /* HAVE_OSF_SIA */ session_setup_sia(pw->pw_name, ttyname); since i have no idea what that's trying to accomplish (and seems to be a bit backwards to me from looking

Hello, I need to serve one fileshare to different users in different groups ( I do so ). I gave different users different groups and told samba to make new files owned by user:group, mod 775. But now some users have the need to write in the directory of another group. Is it possible to force user and group per directory and not per share, or is it possible to create links in the filestructure

Hi all, I've a BIG problem on a Unix SunOS 4.1.4 running SAMBA (samba-1.9.18p3) in order to export some file systems to WindowsNT client machines. The client are using Visual C/C++ 5.x for compiling files (source are remote, but binary are generated on local disks). The problem is that the CPU time and the IO goes... too UP (I've a load average of 8)!!! I traced the clients (with log

Here's a bunch of changes I've made to the current portable version of OpenSSH. The aim is that the rsa_authentication flag in sshd_config can be given the values "without-nfs" This is really handy within a large organization where incorrectly secured home directories can allow authorized_keys(2) to be modified by someone other than the owner. So now rsa_authentication can take

Hi All Some background first I have been asked to set up an environment involving three machines 1. A windows 2000 client 2. A Solaris 8 E450 / NIS client 3. An SGI IRIX fileserver/ NIS server holding user home directories The E450 NFS mounts the SGI and users have their home directories on the SGI. When users want to test their application software they ssh from their windows client into

Can anyone here help me out with a client side Outlook issue? I know outlook is a horrible imap client :( We intermittently have a problem where mail gets "stuck" in Outlook users' outboxes. Might have anything to do with dovecot? Is there anyway I can troubleshoot this server side? Are there any settings I can tweak? We have a new and an old dovecot server (see below) and both

Can someone, more learned in the ways of dtrace point me at what to look at to help understand why the kernel on one machine is using tons of memory, while another machine doing the same task/same user load is not. swapinfo for the "afflicted" machine shows RAM _______Total 16384 Mb RAM Unusable 73 Mb RAM Kernel 9226 Mb RAM Locked 2 Mb RAM Used

This is surely in a FAQ somewhere, but I can't find it. Latest ver. of samba on RH Linux 5.0, encrypt. passwds. My Win95 clients were happy. Then I used poledit to turn off password caching and now they are not happy. The problem is that they can't connect to their home directories. Guest shares are fine, and other shares that require passwords are fine, but when you connect to your home

My Linux box just bit the dust in a dramatic fashion (complete lockup, needed a cold reboot). Although I am not at all sure what the cause was, the last message in the system log mentioned samba, and there are some other funny looking samba-related messages in there. I'm not asking for a diagnostic, but if anyone has seen these before, maybe they can tell me what they mean: Last message

My question is about the static files in the Rails public folder. These files should be served by Apache instead of Mongrel, so do I need to upload these files to Apache''s htdoc''s or will Apache cache them the first time they are requested from Mongrel... Im not sure how this works? Many thanks.

Hi. I wanted to set diskless win95 but I read the list archives and I decided not to do it diskless. So I tried diskless windows but I got a problem. I do this. 1.- I did booting images with bootware proms. 2.- I managed to install DOS clients from microsoft. That was painfull because the one I downloaded from MS didn't connected to my samba server. I used a dos clients that creates a NT

Every now and then one of my lusers sets up a machine which attempts to be a local master and/or a domain master for our workgroup. This sucks since we want our samba machine to *always* be the WINS master server. (we have os level set to 255 for this machine) but appearantly it still loses elections that come up from time to time. The only way I know when this happens is when people come to me

Hello! I know that this is not samba related, but may be some one knows a quick answer: When using profiles, stored on a well running samba-2.0.0beta2 PDC, the NT PC's cache the profile during a user session. As this profile is not deleted on the PC and we have a lot of users with only few PC's we need a lot of diskspace for this old profiles. Is there a way (Registry Key, ..) that

I have installed samba for the first time and I try to start it in a windows 95 environement. I started nmbd and smbd with the config file listed at the end of this mail (I remove all comment for clarity) I expect to use samba with the SHARE protocol of Windows 95 (No WINS) The new server (sdmpcsv02) is recognised by the other pc's but the can list the exported files The smbclient -L

I have a class C address space divided into 3 subnets. I have a Samba server on each subnet and all 3 subnets are under the same Domain/Workgroup. My browsing works fine. But when the frame relay between the subnets goes down, the 2 subnets that don't have the WINS server local cant find their local Samba server. Do I need to have a WINS server on each subnet to keep this from happening? Is

Hi, When defining a queue for lpd using a SMB (Win95) printer, it uses a ".config" file that store a username and password for printing on the SMB server. Is there a way (as anybody tried and how to) to configure the lpd so the username and password used to print on the SMB server are the unix login and password of the user printing (password databases are synchronized), so the job on
