hello folks dont know if this is a faq: a customer currently uses a Suse 9.2 pro with the last version of Samba to share a folder containing data for an Enterprise Management program (Windows based). everything works fine with local clients (many 98s and 1 XP machine). we have some (15) clients connecting to the ERP program via a Terminal Server (Windows2K server). these clients often stuck

This is really strange. The samba server in question is a domain member server on a Windows NT 4.0 Domain network. It runs Gentoo 2004.3 with a 2.4.24 kernel. The Gentoo server was upgraded from Samba 3.0.5 to 3.0.8 last night. After the upgrade, the server had to be re-joined to the domain. After that, everything appeared to be working. This morning we found that the MSAccess database files

Strange. Both systems are Linux. I compiled the LDAP slave Samba with CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686" and SuSE's GCC 3.3.1. The fine working master got the same CFLAGS but SuSE's GCC 2.95.3. Without CFLAGS the GCC 3.3.1 works fine too. Didn't know that optimization (and GCC>3) is that dangerous.... Thanks anyway Daniel ------ Hi! We have a replicated LDAP Samba network. I

Since we use Samba 3.0.5 on Linux 2.6 with xattr and acl on ext3 I'm not longer able to set file attributes. In detail, I'm able fine because they are saved as the EA user.DOSATTRIB at the file. But the other part of Samba didn't know that and uses the normal mapping for reading the attributes resulting in no change of them. So I'm unable to mark a file e.g. read only. ea support

In 3.0.20a/ldapsam the Usrmgr shows in the all users view the displayName attribute as full name, but in the user properties view the cn attribute. Seems a little bit inconsistent to me, shouldn't be the algorithm to retrieve the full name always the same? Daniel

We have a problem with an application that clears the archive bit before writing and sets it after writing. The latter one doesn't succeed if the writer != file owner. Dos filemode is enabled and manually setting is fine. Samba is 3.0.23RC3. Client is XP/SP2. Seems to loose the connection before setting the bit and a new smbd is spawn.

Can anyone confirm that SID -> name lookup with a trusted domain is broken? Thanks Daniel

I patched samba to always return ACCESS_GRANTED for testing. So I came to this: IASSAM.LOG [556] 23:23:53:671: Inserting attribute msNPAllowDialin. [556] 23:23:53:671: Successfully retrieved per-user attributes. Dialin now "only" fails with "Dialin not allowed for user", but I'm not able to set it in UserMgr. Is it difficult to map this attribute? Daniel

We have a lot of [2006/01/04 18:44:40, 0] smbd/open.c:open_file_ntcreate(1355) Trying to delay for oplocks twice in the logs. Do they harm in general? And only in one single case I got this, don't know if I ever will get it reproduced, so maybe not related and happened by accident: Samba version 3.0.21a PID Username Group Machine

We set up a DialIn W2K SP4 member server in our Samba 3.0.0 domain. When a client dials in the RAS server complains: Error 930: The authentication server did not respond to authentication requests in a timely fashion. I tracked down the RAS logfile IASSAM.LOG: [576] 18:30:34:921: NT-SAM Names handler received request with user identity root. [576] 18:30:34:921: Prepending default domain.

We use LDAP backend and Linux 2.6. It happens only --with-acl-support. This 2 errors I found in the level 10 log when I try to copy a fresh copied file a second time on itself (permissions of test file are -r-xrw----, user and group match) Maybe the attribute mapping goes another path with acl support? 3.0.7 works fine.

We have an Exchange 5.5 server in our Samba 3 domain und want to have POP3 access with clear text authentication from clients. But no kind of credentials is accepted. It did a level 10 log on the Samba server and found my clear text password in the log (in nt_chal_resp and lm_chal_resp fields) during authentication. Is it possible that Samba can't handle the clear-text pass-through from
