similar to: simple smb.conf files please

Hi there, My experience: I've used Samba on a couple of servers at home in which security isn't an issue, and I've used WinBind & PAM to authenticate a Linux mailserver from a Windows domain. I'm quite confident about installing Samba & setting up simple shares, I can follow a howto & even do advanced trouble-shooting but I have no experience with many of the

Hi, I have been trying to get SWAT to work so I can configure it using a GUI. But as you can see on my last message, no luck. I have tryed what seems like hundreds of different configuration schemes using smb.conf and cannot seem to get things right. Here is the situation : Local network, internet on a router/firewall. two winXP machines, two win98 machines. No domain authentication, simple

Greetings, I am currently the IT Manager for a 30-person architectural firm. About 5 months ago we hired a new employee. He is quite good at what he does. He is also extremely opinionated, particularly when it comes to computer software, including server software. I'm running the office server functions on RedHat, Fedora and Trustix servers. He has managed to convince my boss that there

Hi Rowland >Sorry, but a dns domain is just as relevant for a home network as it is for >a work network, please use one Ok, thanks. I know this is well out of your area, but I wonder where I would specify the dns domain in Windows?

Hola: This is a repost with the smb.conf inline. Hola: I have configured samba-3.0.14a-2 on FC4 as a member of a Windows SBS2003 network. I used windbind to get the users from the SBS server. Users can login into the samba machine and use home directories I created for them in the samba machine (I cannot get to use/mount the user's home directories from the SBS machine into the

Hi Rowland Thanks for your reply. I see: $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters 127.0.1.1 RPHS So I guess I should edit the hosts file and specify RPHS's fixed IP address. I don't think domain name is relevant for a home network so I won't specify one. Will

Hi Rowland > (just a thought, you have given the Samba server a fixed ipaddress, > hostname and domain name, haven't you ?). The Pi has a fixed IP address and hostname. I see: $ cat /etc/hostname RPHS $ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by resolvconf nameserver 208.67.222.123 nameserver 208.67.220.123 So the DNS seems arbitrary. I don't understand what the DNS should be for a

Hi, Nice little bug for you... SWAT is not implementing file permissions properly when editing smb.conf. an ls -l of my smb.conf looks like this: -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 804 May 5 21:45 smb.conf Note the Owner / Group and 664 permission If I telnet to the server, log on as an ordinary user and do a "vi /etc/smb.conf" I get the file opened "Read-Only" and

Hi Rowland Thanks for your review. I will check all the points you raise, but one I do not understand is: "do all machines have the same dns domain name?" What is the dns domain name in the context of a NetBios workgroup? The only dns I am aware of is the one provided by my ISP, and that won't be relevant I think.

I'm well aware that I'm on here a few months late, but I was hoping to find some step-by-step answers. I'm not utilizing Kareo at the moment, but it's one of the medical billing softwares that my boss is looking into. That said, he's also not adamant about keeping Windows on our system. . . .but he doesn't want Mac either. Pretty large conundrum, right? Anyway, my boss is

I am trying to setup a simple Samba server using the instructions in the O'Reilly book "Using Samba" first edition on a Slackware 9.1 system which uses Samba 2.2.8a. The windows machine uses windows 98SE. The instructions under Server Configuration starting page 93 and Disk Share Configuration starting page 96 had me setup a very simple smb.conf which should then appear in Network

Hi I am still struggling to setup a home network of: - 2 laptops running Windows 7 Home - 1 laptop running Windows 10 Home - 1 Raspberry Pi ‘RPHS’ running Rasbian Jesse and Samba 4.1.17-Debian The current status is that only one of the Windows machines can see the Samba shared drive /mnt/data. The other machines don’t discover the Pi at all. I’m wondering if there is something wrong with my

Dear R-help, Is it possible to use win.metafile() on *nix versions of R? I tried R 2.1.1 on FreeBSD and R 1.9.0 on redhat with no success. I need to give some graphs generated in R to my boss so that he can modify them in Powerpoint to fit he style of his presentation. Recommendations on other methods are appreciated as well.
