Using Samba v2.0.10 on a RedHat v7.1 box, I see that the Win98 clients on our network are making sporatic requests for user "nobody" (as shown below). Anyone know what's going on here? My network has both Linux and Win98 clients, but only the Win98 clients are showing this behavior. Both the Linux and Win98 clients access the same shared drives, but only the Win98 clients use

Hello, I'm having a problem configuring samba (2.0.5a) on a Linux system using NIS+ as the password system. Samba complains that it cannot find the smbpasswd file, which is not surprising as I'm not using one. I tried 'smb password file = passwd.org_dir' that sort of worked, except that it creates a directory called passwd.org_dir from whatever directory I ran the smbd from.

Good morning, I am posting msgs on the NON OPERATION of WINBIND. GOOD I should say that without I had made any change in the system it started to work in an of my facilities. INCREDIBLE but it worked. The problem now is that I tried log in the samba not previously using an user servant in the smbpasswd and him of autentication mistake. But should not WINBIND facilitate that? Do I need to have user

I have been (unsuccessfully) trying to get this up and running for the past few days. I have successfully setup samba itself NUMEROUS times but this winbind stuff has me stumped. I have built a fresh box for this server using Turbo Linux server 6.5 and samba 2.2.2. I have followed all the docs and man pages that i could find. 1. I have samba compiled (using --with-winbind --with-pam) and

Hi there, I ran into a weird problem. 2 machines, one with an NE2000 clone (W95) card and the other with an Etherworks203 (linux with Samba). Samba: from W95 client file shares ok, home shares ok, can read and write files. Printing: I *can* configure a printer up to the printing of the testpage, that fails. At starting of W95 it succesfully connect to the printer share. Printing something fails,

I have a samba domain. Also there are some machines which are not in domain. I need to create share for full access for these machines. I've tried this: [common_share] path = /path/to/dir browseable = yes writeable = yes guest ok = yes force user = ftp force group = ftp But when I'm trying to connect to this share I've been asked for password to IPC$. Can anybody help?

I sent the following to sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org and I'm also forwarding this to the samba list. I hope you can help: ------------- Begin Forwarded Message ------------- I have an emergency and am at the end of my resources and hope you can help. I'm a samba newbie and hope you can point me to an answer. Our Samba2.0.5 server is a Sun Enterprise 450 (Solaris 7). Our PDC is an NT

I've had samba running cleanly on an HP-UX 11.0 system for many months, with "DOMAIN" security and one-to-one account name mapping. A few days ago I started getting password prompts on connection, and messages like this in the log files...

Hello, I have a fairly large problem mounting a samba share from within linux. The samba server, running Solaris 7 with Samba pre-2.0.7, has a bunch of shares on it, one of which I can mount from Windows, while logged into the ACADIA domain, but I cannot mount that share using smbmount in linux. When I log into windows, I log in with the username 033197m and my password. In smb.conf I have my

Hello everyone, we try to use a server running linux in an NT-domain and get the error message given in the subject-line. More details from the logfile and smb.conf are given below.

Hi all, We are having some problems getting a solaris 9(sparc) file server running samba 2.2.2 to authenticate aginst a windows NT 4 PDC. Let me say first that this was all working at one time, then we had some data corrumption on our NFS mounted /usr/local, and had to restore from tape. Due to some issues with solaris ufsdump and ufsrestore, stuff was not quite put back properly. We do

Hi all I am sure that there is some mention of this error in the docs somewhere but I could not find it. So, sorry for repeating it here. I have installed samba 2.0.3 on solaris 2.5.1 I carried out all the tests described in the documentation. They were all successful. Bu from an NT server I can't do this net use z: \\server_name\\tmp System error 86 has occurred The specified network

Due to a problem with a crash bug in smbd in 2.0.5, we have released Samba 2.0.5a containg a fix for this problem (which was causing problems for people using macro expansions in print scripts). Here are the notes for what we fixed between 2.0.5 and 2.0.5a, which should now be available on all worldwide mirror sites. Changes in 2.0.5a ----------------- 1). Fix for smbd crash bug in

I am currently using Samba on several unix servers, and have numerous users accessing them from NT workstation machines. I have my samba security set equal to DOMAIN. And I have successfully added the unix servers to the domain and created the domain accounts. The problem I have is not a constant problem, but it is a major inconvenience. Sometimes, when a user attempts to access the samba share,

Hi, Recently i moved from samba 2.0.5a to Samba 2.0.6 on 4 machines. Samba 2.0.5a ran quite smooth except for oplocking problems, so i decided to upgrade. I compiled both releases myself and used the same ./configure options both times (but i compiled on different machines: v 2.0.5a was compiled on a HP 9000/715/50, 2.0.6 was compiled on a HP 9000/800/K360) I used binutils 2.9.1 and gcc 2.8.1 on

Hi, I?ve setup a Samba 2.0.5a on a SuSe 6.2 based Linux 2.2.10. I?m trying to integrate the server into our NT domain SF-DOM as described in samba/textdocs/DOMAIN_MEMBER.txt . The described procedures work, but access as domain user is impossible. In the logfile I get: [1999/09/14 11:18:31, 2] smbd/server.c:main(716) Changed root to / [1999/09/14 11:18:31, 2] smbd/reply.c:reply_special(96)

Hi all, I just released Samba 2.0.7pre2, available from : ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/samba-2.0.7pre2.tar.gz This is the second snapshot of the code that should become the official Samba 2.0.7 and is feature complete (ie. I'm only going to accept bug fixes, not more features). This is *not* production code, but should work well as a file and print server, and contains fixes for all

Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 7/SPARC. Windows 2000 SP2 domain controller (native mode). Joined samba to domain as per htmldocs/DOMAIN_MEMBER.html. [global] workgroup = DOM security = domain password server = charon However, connecting to shares as non-guest fails due to authentication problems (below). As htmldocs/DOMAIN_MEMBER.html indicates this does work, is there some other magic that needs

Hi folks, I'am using Samba 2.0.0 on a Linux and a Sun box and i have the following problem: I can log in from a smbclient but not from an NT Client using Security=Domain. 1.)

A couple of days ago I posted a problem I was having with the smbapasswd command for users (not root). Here is the original post: I have Samba installed on a HP-UX 11.00 system using NIS for UID/password resolution. The smbpasswd file hasbeen initilized and as root I can add a user's password and the user can "attach" the "share". But when the user tries to do the
