Hi; I'm having a really odd problem with some Windows ME stations connected to a Samba server. From a command prompt on the ME stations, I do the following: dir *.* This works as expected, all the files in the directory are displayed. I then do: dir test.txt And I get: General failure reading drive G Abort, Retry, Fail. The directory contains the file, and the file shows up in a full

Hi, I have replaced an older AIX system with a new one running AIX 5.3, all the latest patches. It is acting as a PDC (I think irrelevant). The old server was running AIX 4.3.2 with Samba 3.0.14a (upgraded from 2.0.7) , and was working 100% fine. I had the old server running 3.0.14a for 6 weeks prior to the upgrade as part of my migration plan. There are Windows 98 boxes that connect to

I have a test server setup with Samba 4.1.4. All file interactions test work except when copying files from a CD or DVD to the samba share on Windows 7. I have a CD with a folder that contains 324 files and 22 sub-folders. Consistently if I drag/drop or copy/paste the folder in Windows Explorer directly from the CD to the samba share only 53 files and 4 folders get copied. No error dialogs

Hello mailinglist, I have a strange problem, which occurs sometimes on some WinXP clients. It is not 100% reproducable for me, but it returns regular. The problem is, that somehow a user can't delete a directory. All files in the directory will be removed successfully, but the directory itself not. Deleting with the Explorer or over the cmd-console returns in the same result. First the

...ork runing Samba 2.05a and Win95 OSR2 clients have a problem that occurs several times a month, always near the end of the day. If they open a samba share, it doesn't show any files. The logfile says: [2000/01/10 18:03:06, 0] smbd/dir.c:dptr_create(453) dptr_create: returned 0: Error - all new dirptrs in use ? Apparently bitmap_find() (dir.c, line 450) wraps around to 0 while it is expected to return a value higher than 255. It seems to me that bitmap_find() (file lib/bitmap.c, line 94) does the wrong thing in this particular case. It looks for free bits starting at an offset, but when it reach...

Jeremy, I think we found the part of source where the problem resides: smbd/trans2.c +1444 for (i=0;(i<maxentries) && !finished && !out_of_space;i++) { +1445 BOOL got_exact_match = False; +1446 +1447 /* this is a heuristic to avoid seeking the dirptr except when +1448 absolutely necessary. It allows for

Hi, I'm using Samba 4.1.6 (version included in last Ubuntu LTS version). I've some directories in a share. One of them has an exe file. In root of my share I've a lnk file to this exe. So I've: /home/share/IntegrDom/IntegrDom.exe and /home/share/Install_Client_Scribe.lnk (which is a link to /home/share/IntegrDom/IntegrDom.exe). This point is important, if I remove this lnk

I'm having a problem with files locking so that every time the are opened up they are opened as Read-Only. Windows doesn't see them as readonly but Samba thinks that they are write=no and so they can't be saved or deleted. I've included a log, my smb.conf, and a getfacl of a user's home directory as well as a getfacl of the directory from /home. Any help would be

Over the weekend I upgraded my IRIX servers to 3.0.13 and have found many strange issues regarding the creation of new folders. When I attempt to add a new folder through the Windows side I get an immediate error dialog box stating "You may not be able to access file created in the folder X:\New Folder." When I select to continue the folder is created, looking on the IRIX side the

I'm using samba 3.0.25a on a Solaris 9 box with separate W2K and XP clients accessing a share. The issue I'm having is that not all files appear in folder listings via Explorer/DOS windows on the XP client. This only happens when an app on the W2K side is simulateously accessing/creating files on the same share but not neccessarily in the same folder. I've since run samba in top

Hello All, I'm having problems accessing getting a directory listing from samba(3.0.23d) with win xp clients. I can mount a share from win xp, create a directory, create a file, edit the file, etc. But listing the directory contents is fickle. If its a very small directory things appear to work fine. But a directory with around 30 files seems to hang and eventually returns "File Not

Hi, I'm having strange performance problems with samba and an application written with VisualFox Pro. This application is entirely installed in a Windows share and it has a hystory of strange phenomenons. Initially it ran fast on an old NT server (but that server has been replaced). It has strange performance problems with Windows 2000 Server: it runs fast with some servers and slow with

Does anybody have any tuning tips for a samba 3.0.23 server that is acting as a PDC with ldap backend and file server. The problem I'm having is a certain program runs in XP workstations that accesses files on one of the shares, it apparently opens lots of files and is constantly making changes to them. When I run top, I see each smbd process for each workstations is consuming about

Hi again, I was previously writing for a problem with Arcserve IT and Samba (with linux). The connection drops after 15 minutes. Continuing to understand what's happening, I discovered the following message in the logs: [1999/06/01 14:42:08, 0] smbd/files.c:file_new(85) ERROR! Out of file structures Immediatly I ran into the samba code to try to understand the cause of the problem.

Hello, thought I’d post here before opening up an issue on Bugzilla, just in case… I’m setting up a combination Samba 4.5.12/Netatalk 3.1.11 file server on Debian Stretch (kernel version 4.9.0-4-amd64), servicing a network containing Windows, macOS, and OS X Tiger 10.4.11 systems. As I understand it, vfs_fruit is necessary for proper interoperation with Netatalk 3, so I have that enabled on my
