Hi. We have had SAMBA running successfully at work here for a while, it's on a Sun Sparc Solaris 2.6. The version of samba is 2.0.0. Unfortunately our sysadmin has left the company, and I have to try and fix a problem with Samba. When I try and start samba, "nmbd" starts ok, but "smbd" doesn't start. When I check the log files, I get these errors: [2001/09/24

...dgy bit or two that happen to fall into the wrong spot under new kernels. I'll swap out the memory and see if the problem re-occurs; I'm reporting here at the same time in case anyone else is seeing this. -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287088 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 http://ioctl.org/jan/ YKYBPTMRogueW... you try to move diagonally in vi.

Thanks to Will Saxon I'm finally able to mount Samba shares on my 5.1-R box using the command mount_smbfs -I 129.197.36.34 -W acct01 //bfosdick@129.197.36.34/net-11 /sp/net-11 which then prompts me for my password. So now the question is...how do I put this in /etc/fstab? What do I do about the password?

Just got a pointer to this via ACM "TechNews Alert" for today: http://www.acm.org/technews/articles/2004-6/0818w.html#item2 Seems that "... French computer scientist Antoine Joux reported on Aug. 12 his discovery of a flaw in the MD5 algorithm, which is often used with digital signatures...." There's more in the article cited above.

I am not sure if I had a compromise but I am not sure I wanted some other input. I noticed in this in my daily security run output: pc1 setuid diffs: 19c19 < 365635 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel 204232 Sep 27 21:23:19 2003 /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver --- > 365781 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel 205320 Dec 4 07:55:59 2003 /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver It was the only file listed and I didn't

Hello list. I would like to get your opinion on what is a safe multi-user environment. The scenario: We would like to offer to some customers of ours some sort of network backup/archive. They would put daily or weekly backups from their local machine on our server using rsync and SSH. Therefore, they all have a user account on our server. However, we must ensure that they would absolutely not be

I've been using ipfw for a while to create a router with NAT and packet filtering, but have never combined it with stateful filtering, instead using things like "established" to accept incoming TCP packets which are part of a conversation initiated from the "inside". I'd like to move to using keep-state/check-state to get tighter filtering and also to allow outgoing

Here's a patch against 4.8-RELEASE kernel that allows disk writes on softupdates-enabled filesystems to be delayed for (theoretically) arbitrarily long periods of time. The motivation for such updating policy is surprisingly not purely suicidal - it can allow disks on laptops to spin down immediately after I/O operations and stay idle for longer periods of time, thus saving considerable amount

Heya folks First of all, sorry if this isn't the correct list, but yet, I think spam is a kind of network attack and should be treated as a security issue.. I run a working mail server using Postfix, MySQL, Courier-IMAP, SpamAssassin and ClamAV (amavisd-new) .. I've checked the configuration file for SpamAssassin, but yet I havn't find any good solution for spam.. Sure, spam will
