similar to: Ubuntu samba slower than red hat??

Hello List, on a windows-pc are files with an EURO-Sign "?" included in the filenames. This is working between all XP and 2000 Clients. But if i try to access such a file from a linux-box, I cannot read this files. I switched to the german charset with EURO Sign but no success. Then i tried the cifs instead of smbfs. But the same effect. Switching to UTF-8 doesn't work too.

Hi, I've run many time e2fsck, but in a special dir ls tells me: ls: r?cksendung-wlan.dvi: No such file or directory ls: baf?g_r?ckmeldung.latex: No such file or directory ls: finpr?f.pdf: No such file or directory $ cat finpr?f.pdf cat: finpr?f.pdf: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden I don't know what to do? How can I find the failure? If I cat the files with debugfs, I see the

My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken the mounted shares for my Ubuntu 6.06 installation on my Acer 1682WLMI laptop. The cifs module on Ubuntu reports as version 1.39. The symptoms are that I can

greeting samba.general; i am trying to set up a backup server to archive files from a windows 2000 fileserver, and i can't seem to get filenames containing non-ascii characters to appear correctly on the linux box. my windows server: windows 2000 service pack 4 my linux server: debian 3.1 kernel 2.6.13.3 with these options: CONFIG_CIFS=m # CONFIG_CIFS_STATS is not set #

I am migrating a couple old RH servers running sendmail and UW-IMAP to a new Ubuntu 10.04 servers running Postfix and Dovecot. I have everything working reasonably well except that the permissions of newly created mbox mail folders is always 600. I have reviewed the archives, google, and double checked everything is as suggested in the Dovecot Wiki / SharedMailboxes / Permissions. I am

Hi All, A couple of days ago I posted a query here about the loss of performance on my backup server after I moved from Red Hat 7.3 to SuSE 8.1. It appears as though, with no hardware or script changes, that my backup process takes 4 hours longer with SuSE 8.1. I'm doing (what I think is) a very simple script that basically employs SMBMOUNT, CP, and DIFF. Like this:

Hi, My storage admin just assigned a Lun (fibre) to my server. Then re scanned using echo "1" > /sys/class/fc_host/host5/issue_lip echo "1" > /sys/class/fc_host/host6/issue_lip I can see the scsi device using dmesg But mpath device are not created for this LUN Pleas see below. The last 4 should be active and I think this is the problem Kernel:

I wrote part of a FAQ last November, and if you're interested in the breakdown of GCC, GLibC and kernel adoption since Red Hat Linux 4.0, you'll want to read this: http://www.geocities.com/thebs413/RH-Distribution-FAQ-3.html I've been loosely working on a "Linux Configuration Management" book covering Red Hat distributions since. I might update this FAQ if I have

The "auto" method of downloading a file cannot cope with a proxy firewall requiring authentication. However, wget can handle this very easily (using e.g. ~/.wgetrc). While it is feasible to add the required method="wget" to calls such as update.packages(), this approach is rather tedious and could easily be controlled by use of a new option. Below is a simple patch to

RA2:YR is a 2D game - I think it probably uses DirectDraw. It runs slower with 0.9.16 and now the in game cursor flickers. Besides minor audio problems it ran fine in 0.9.15. I tried setting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D\DirectDrawRenderer to "gdi". It made no difference. Is that the corrent way to turn off the new DirectDraw changes?

I would like some clarification on Winbind's capabilities. I have winbind up and fully functional. I can use wbinfo -g, wbinfo -u, etc.. I would like to use winbind to correlate sids to uid on filesystems mounted with smbfs or cifs. In reading further I see lots of information about doing this on EXT3 (or Linux filesystems that support ACL). Perhaps, I had misunderstood the purpose of

Hi, My setup is 1 management server and 1 server for virtual guests. The management server is an old dual core 32bit machine, the virtual guests server will be a dual quad core Dell server (until someone needs it back for production stuff :) ) This install is for the 32bit management server. First did a basic install of F12 without any X stuff in it Made sure /etc/selinux/config is in

Anyone played with or know the status of Red Hat Directory Server on CentOS 5? I had some problems getting this to work on CentOS 4.4, but am very interested in using this instead of regular OpenLDAP as it supports two way synchronization to Active Directory. Noah

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone knows about version-number correlation between RHDS and FDS. I've sofar been quite unable to find anything about it. The latest version of seems to be 7.1SP3: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ And the latest version of FD seems to be 1.0.4: http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Download Most sources I could find state that "FDS and RHDS

This is a "heads up" for anyone who relies on PAM session management in order to clean up after a login session. Red Hat 5.2''s login does not perform PAM session management correctly, potentially resulting in sessions which lose their authentication before the login shell starts. login.c in Red Hat 5.2''s util-linux package was modified so that it no longer forks a

Can anyone provide me with their (fairly) impartial opinion on which major current distribution (Debian 1.2 or Red Hat 4.0) provides better security? I have heard a lot of people sticking up for their favorite, but few real facts/insights on them from a security point of view. Red Hat seems to be favored by novices for no-brainer installation and graphical configuration programs (which

It looks and acts like it should all work, but after I run a "rake deploy", Lighttpd never responds to another request. I have to go and kill and restart Lighttpd, which sort of defeats the purpose of using Switchtower. Is anyone else having similar problems? -- Regards, Lori
