Hi, I am new with Samba, so excuse my primitive questions. I just started installing Samba on an SGI origin unsing IRIX 6.4. with windows NT workstations. I was following the UNIX_INSTALL.txt file and I got blocked and step 4 where I should test my "smb.conf" file with the executable "testparm". After I installed Samba by first doing make, then make install... I took the sample "smb.conf" from the directory /packaging/SGI. I configured it to serve my purpose. I moved the file /usr/local/samba/var as mentioned in the makefile and the UNX_INSTALL.txt file. I tried to run testparm but I recieved the message: testparm - Command not found. I checked the path and added in my .login the following: setenv PATH $PATH:/usr/local:/usr/local/samba:/usr/local/samba/bin:/usr/local/samba/var I restarted, this modification didn't work, so I tried the following: set PATH=$PATH:/usr/local:/usr/local/samba:/usr/local/samba/bin:/usr/local/samba/var Neither did this one worked. (By the way I am using the csh shell, if someone could tell me what is the right syntax). When none of these two worked, I went to the "directory /usr/local/samba/bin" where the executable files are located and triend to run testparm from there... Same error message. I figured that I did something wrong, but don't know what yet... Could anyone help pls? Thanks in advance Roland -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

To execute it, go to the directory where it's located and type: ./testparm This will execute the testing tool for you. Hope this helps.

Hi, I'm new to using Samba. I just recently downloaded Samba for Solaris. I'm in charge of a Sun Solaris machine that I did not build and when I try to use Samba, I get the following error message when I try to run anything: ld.so.1: ./testparm: fatal: libgen.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory What library do I need to install and where would I find it to fix this problem?

That library file is part of the core Solaris shared libraries. It comes in the package SUNWcsl on my Solaris 8 box. I think you probably already have it, and just need to set your LIBPATH and/or LD_LIBRARY_PATH before using samba. -Jay> -----Original Message----- > From: Sean Moenkhoff [mailto:smoenkhoff@dimensions.com] > Sent: Monday, October 30, 2000 9:30 AM > To: samba@lists.samba.org > Subject: Problems with Installation > > Hi, > > I'm new to using Samba.
