One more thing I forgot to mention. The chapter calls for editing /etc/resolv.conf, but in my case it won't stay edited--it keeps getting set back to an original form (for searching my ISP) on every reboot. Thanks again.

...ater screen that shows the various daemons and other functionalities being turned on, eth0 is up and running, and 5-6 other functionalities have already been turned on, as well, and the bootup completes in otherwise normal fashion. I'm working through JHT's online BYEXAMPLE book's Chapt 3 exercise, and I've reached the point where I've written the DNS config files and turned on named. The problem began at this point in time. Also, ethereal indicates that the Linux PC is sending out exactly 0 broadcast packets asking for dynamic address confirmation/reassignment, even...

I'm hoping to use R for spatial analysis. In working through examples in Chapt. 4 of Applied Spatial Data Analysis with R I've come across the following error in trying to plot lines with the meuse data set. The text is verbatim from the book. > m.sl <- SpatialLines(list(Lines(list(Line(cc))))) Error in Lines(list(Line(cc))) : Single ID required What does "S...

Dumb question time; I can't find the answer in the Samba-3 or HOWTO docs: how do you add users to the passdb.tdb (tdbsam's db)? Is pdbedit the only way? I ask because the Chapt 3 Samba-3 example has passdb = tdbsam in the samba config file, but the instructions for adding users are to use useradd and smbpasswd, which leave passdb.tdb empty (except for root--I have no idea how that got in there). Thanks Eric Hines There is no nonsense so errant that it cannot be made...

...third kind has read the docs and still has a problem, else they wouldn't be on the mailing list looking for help. We don't deserve your rant, either. And we've read the docs despite what seem to be a high error rate in them that confuses the diagnostic outcomes. (For instance, in Chapt 1 of the HOWTO, on connecting to a Remote SMB Client, we're told to run "net use d: \\servername\service. When I do that, I simply get the error back that the local device is already in use. Of course--d: is a logical partition on my PC. I have to figure out that you meant "d:&...

...esolution, although I can successfully ping by IP address. I can ping lserver1 by name or by IP successfully from mustelidae. Where is lserver1 pointing in terms of DNS? How do I tell? At this point, all I can say is that I've set up named.conf (and dhcpd.conf) as John has them in his Chapt 3 example, with the sole differences being that I'm using one subnet and not two (a DHCP issue), I'm calling my server lserver1.test.biz, vice diamond.abmas.biz, and lserver1's IP address is 192.168.1.103, vice the one John's using in his example. Aside from these edits, named....

Hi, I am having the same problem. Did you figure out how to do this? Any help in how to remove stale WINS entries from Samba would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, -farshad

...I missed that one: It's the same problem on Mac as Windows: the ownership changes because editors create/rename/unlink files. It's in the book under "File Permissions and Attributes.." on page 141, under force create mode.
