similar to: file locking with win apps

Thankyou for taking the time to read this ... We have large PC userbase and a not-so-large (but equally loud) Unix user base. We have a requirement to "PopUp" information windows on ALL our user's screens with an absolute minimum of manual intervention (ie type the message once and then forget it). We can manage the Unix X servers but can't seem to find a UNIX application that

I'm encountering problems copying files from a Windows NT workstation to a Linux system. Not all of the files are being copied. A week ago I submitted a bug report. The only response was an automated reply acknowledging that the message was received. I'm assuming that they are very busy and have not had time to go through all of the incoming e-mail. Maybe someone here could help, or

Hi! I'm having the following problem with samba 1.9.18 running on Linux 2.0.32: I can't map drives using MS Client 3.0 for Dos. I get "Invalid password for share (Error 86) from client when trying to map drives. --- smb.conf --------------------------------------------------- [global] domain logons = no dns proxy = no getwd cache = yes guest account = guest hosts allow =

?We are trying to migrate a Dos based btrieve application from Windows NT to Samba 4?.1.6-Ubuntu. Running one client works, running more that one client do not work. I searched Google and there are many historic pages about issues related to the btrieve / Samba combination. Are there stable solutions of this issue? Kind Regards Hendre

Hello fellow samba users, I have installed quite a couple of samba fileservers so far. There are exactly two installations which give me real hard time, and both have to do with Win9x clients running applications based on ... *sigh* btrieve. What I do server-sided is switch on opportunistic locking (level2 oplocks = yes). Without this, the applications don't run at all, at least not on more

Is it possible to create an executable in unix, place it on a samba share, and run it from NT. i ran a little test putting "ls" in my samba share and tried double clicking it to see if it would run. my main goal is to create a batch file from NT that calls a script located on a unix box shared by samba thanks SBLI

Hello. I have a problem with samba-2.2.5 and Win2000. I try to copy a file onto my home share and the explorer takes a long time to copy the file. After a while (ca. 30 seconds) there comes an error-box: path is to long (Der Pfad ist zu lang.) The error just gives me an OK-button. The files is correctly transmitted. I checked it, but if takes a very long time and there comes the error-message.

I cannot print to a file on a samba share, because i get an error saying that the file is not present on the share. I'm sure the file is created with 0 length, and its name is mangled. It shoeld be FILE: and its mangled to file~??? Any suggestion?

I tried migrating our samba settings from one machine to another, but Windows sees it as a different server. I currently have an older version of samba setup on an old machine. I setup the latest version of samba on a different machine with different build specs (e.g. acl support, etc.). I migrated over the usernames/passwords and MACHINE.SID file (is this even used anymore?) and setup smb.conf

Has anyone tried to wrap your SMB session inside another TCP protocol like SSH? I'm trying to sync files across two linux machines but my broadband provider is blocking SMB and port 139 traffic. If anyone has any information it would be greatly appreciated. Aram -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name: not available Type:

I guess this is really a RedHat, not CentOS question, but I?m hoping that someone here will be familiar enough with the upstream policy to have some useful information. How does RedHat decide which versions to release patches for, e.g. https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2015-7613 <https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2015-7613> which has only a RH7 erratum, not 6? And are

Is there a recent survey of that Linux distro and version people are using for the Asterisk installations? I recall seeing a pie chart over a year ago (I think on a wiki but I can't find it again)....also hoping for something more current. I suspect RH5 and RH6 are most popular...but I'm looking for facts -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

The bickering here about Centos 6 has made me wonder what is actually legally necessary to re-distribute the RPM files that come with RHel6. I am not starting a flame ware, I hope. I'm just curious about what is minimally necessary go from RHel6 to another distribution. I suppose we could discuss "Paul Linux 6" instead of Centos, if that makes you feel more comfortable.

Hi all, I have made a RedHat 6.0 i386 binary rpm of 2.0.4b with the glibc2.1 configuration fix available at : ftp:<samba.org mirror>/pub/samba/Binary_Packages/redhat/RPMS/6.0/samba-2.0.4b-19990527.i386.rpm This rpm is to be preferred over the one on the RedHat 6.0 cd as it contains an autoconf configuration test to work around the glibc2.1 bug w.r.t. 64 bit locking (the one that

I would like to know if anybody on this list has managed to have a network of 98 clients running off a samba server, and had roaming profiles, i.e. people's settings follow them from machine to machine. I have done everything I find in the guides, and I have no idea why the machines create new local profiles. I've searched the net for documentation, example websites, etc, but it seems the

Hello! I have a problem: I work in a company which is strictly windows-only, and I really need to replace a windows-xp machine - which is a member of the company's domain - with a linux machine (using samba). This new linux machine will have to upload backups of its data to a share within the domain. Thus, it needs to be a member of the domain (correct?). Obviously, I need to join the

I'm looking at tuning up a new site and the bonding issue came up A google search reveals that the gluster docs (and Lindsay) recommend balance-alb bonding. However, "team"ing came up which I wasn't familiar with. Its already in RH6/7 and Ubuntu and their Github page implies its stable. The libteam.org people seem to feel their solution is more lightweight and it seems easy
