samba - Jul 1998 - problem

dear folks,
when I run smbclient -L <hostname>, I've got the problem ;
Added interface ip=10.1.1.32 bcast=10.1.7.255 nmask=255.255.248.0
Server time is Thu Jul  9 15:30:47 1998
Timezone is UTC+7.0
Domain=[AIFILE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 1.9.16p9]
SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRaccess (The requester does not have  the
necessary
  access  rights  within  the specified  context for the requested
function. The
 context is defined by the TID or the UID.)
Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password?
Some servers insist that these be in uppercase

Did any body had ever problem like this ?
any help would be appreciate.

regards,
slamet

Hi

local network but now i can't seems to be able to do it anymore and i
don't know why i keep getting..

/bin/smbmount //machine/c /dosf -U (my machine name) -P (the shared
password)
smb_get_length: Invalid NBT packet
smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL
smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL
mount error: Invalid argument
Please look at smbmount's manual page for possible reasons

it used to work with the exact same version and exact same line i just
changed the network card in the other machine and changed from bnc to rj45
what could be the problem been searching for a week now can someone help
me please?????..

Hi,

    I have a user who is a Window95 laptop who for some reason has the
following characteristics
    when clicking on Network Neighborhood.

    Before clicking on Network neighborhood. Opened a DOS session and can
telnet and ping to
    the samba server with no problem.

    But after closing the DOS session, Then clicking on Network
Neighborhood, The laptop goes into
    a freeze state then unfreezes. This happens till the laptop goes into a
total stop state. I tried to
    do the following:

     Kill the Network Neigborhood between states, This stops the network
neighborhood diaglog but
     Still the freeze characteristic. 

     Next I looked at the users system resources using the resource meter.
The laptop has over 70%
     and killed a couple of unwanted processes that brought it up but the
freeze state continues.

     What real strange is that the Samba Server ( Solaris 2.8  Sparc ) can
ping and traceroute to the
     laptop with no problems. 

     There samaba logs are not showing me any other problems. We did load a
new update of the SMB
     for windows but this didn't help either.

     Any suggestions would be appreciate. Also for some reason the only
thing I get from this list is the
    digest. I don't see responses from anyone who submit to this list. I did
subscribe properly to this list.
    Any suggestions on that would be apppreciated.

A problem has recently occurred on our network. We are using an 
HP 9000 server running HP-UX 10.20 and Samba 1.9.17.p1. Until recently,
all our clients were Windows 95 PCs. We have been gradually replacing
the PCs with Windows NT 4.0 Workstations. Users of both NT workstations
and Windows 95 have started to complain that, at times, they can't
access drives mapped to the server. I noticed that there are times when
the server does not even show up in Network Neighborhood. Today, I can't
see the hpg50 server with Network Neighborhood. I was able to use
Windows Explorer to map a drive to the directories that are normally
accessed through Samba. 
  Any ideas? Where should I start looking?

Thanks,

I have a Samba server that I am using as a print server in my Windows NT
Domain. I am using Windows NT 4.0 as the PDC and Windows 2000 as the
workstations. I add the printer to a local port then go into the ports tab
under properties and add another port called \\smnprint\printer1 , it gives
me Bad username or password.
I have the usernames synced accross both Samba Server and NT server and I
have the correct settings in my smb.conf file... I'll send it to you with
this note... Please tell me what I am doing wrong... This is SUPER URGENT...
I have to have this done today

Are you mapping a drive from Win98?  What is the share name?

Are you saying in order for you to access that directory, you have
to have certain permissions?

Hi Karel;
This problem is due to everyone needing to connect to the IPC$ service for
browsing.  Every 'service' must have a path, and in the code, the path
for
IPC$ (which is a special service) is set to be either whatever the
environment variable TMPDIR was at the time smbd was run
OR /tmp, if the TMPDIR environment variable is not defined.
so when a user comes in to browse (ie doubleclicking the machine name in
network neighborhood, or executing \\servername  in the run menu from
'start'), when smbd attempts to vfs_ChDir to /tmp  (or in your case
/root/tmp) as anyone other than root, then the unix permissions cause this
to fail.
Typically /tmp is a GOOD default, as it is generally a garbage collection
directory that everyone has access to.
Try setting the environment variable TMPDIR=/tmp  (or whatever other
directory you want, that you can guarantee all users have access to) before
you start nmbd/smbd.  That should do the trick for you...

Hope this helps,
Don

If I understand you correctly, you are complaining that the default
share locations are in /tmp? If not, ignore the rest of this message.
I've complained about this already. I never leave the shares in /tmp. I
think this is something that SWAT does and the default should be
changed. Just change your shares to point to a more appropriate
directory.

I teach a basic computer class and my students have the following problem.  
Can you help?  Thanks, Ron my e-mail is wdoa@hotmail.com

A Microsoft Access 2000 database is stored on a Corel® Linux server. When a 
single user accesses the database, there is no problem.  When two or more 
users initiate simultaneous connections, the first user can access the 
database and the additional users receive the following message:

"could not lock file"

Further access is denied.

Is this a Samba problem or a Linux problem?
If this is a Samba problem, what is the solution?

System specifications

Version of Samba: 2.0.7-2-d-1.Li386.deb
Server Operating System: Corel® Linux
Linux Kernel: vmlinuz 2.2.16
Client Operating Systems: Microsoft Windows 95

this is a MS Access Problem.
this is to prevent corruption from both users
trying to update the file.

solution? move to a real databse such as MSSQL, MySQL, etc...

Not necessarily, the error is talking about file locking, 
not record locking.  We successfully run shared Access 
databases off Samba with multiple users accessing the same file
concurrently.  Access does have limitations with record locking
in comparison with the industry strength databases such as M*SQL etc

We've had similar locking problems with Foxpro databases which are
housed on Samba servers, my suggestion would be to look at
setting "oplocks = no" on that particular share, it has worked 
successfully for the Foxpro databases, tho it may cause problems
for other programs, so test it first.

Be aware that if you are running different versions of Windows 
(ie: 95 & 2000) that you may run into problems with this setting
as the locking code under Win 95 is buggy compared to Win2000 
apparently

Hi there,
 
I am new to Samba.
 
Today I downloaded it and as I was ready to install I cannot find the
program ./configure in the source directory to run.
Would you be so kind to direct me towards this program.
Thank you in advance.

Dears,

 

I hope that this address is OK. I have one small problem. I'm using
Linux rh 8.0 and samba of course. File server works OK only problem is
Logon script on win 98. It takes only one minute to close it. The "dos
window" is closed immediately but then takes almost a minute (closing
Login script ..)

 

Do you have any ideas?

 

Thanks for your answer and best regards from Slovenia.
