Hi, I'm Samba is a new thing for me and I hope my question will make some sense! I have created several samba shares listed in my smb.conf file and have the option "create mode = 0660" set. This is fine most of the time, however sometimes certain users create files (for web pages) that they want to be world-readable. How can I keep my default setting at 660, but have some

I have setup a fileserver (172.0.0.74) in the dmz and I would like the internal network to be able to view it, (I also have a samba server on the LAN) so I enabled wins made the appropriate changes to my dhcpd.conf file.

Hi, I am mounting a windows 2000 share on a linux box (2.4.18) using smbmount (2.2.2). I can create files >2Gb on both the systems, but I can't copy a file >2Gb from the linux box over the smbmount. The file size limit is exceeded and the "cp" command core-dumps. Has anyone solved this problem? I had installed the samba binary rpms; is there a patch-n-compile solution

Rookie Question When I try to add a client machine (Win2k) to the domain I receive the following error message. "Unknown user name or bad password."

hi, I have a pretty basic samba server installed on my Debian system. I use samba 2.2.3a-7 for Debian. Everything seems to work just fine except printing; Everyone is able to print (w2k clients) even though "guest ok = no" is set. The print job is done by the guest user (nobody). How is this possible when guest ok is set to no? TIA Ronald smb.conf: [global] netbios name = DARKCLOUD

Hello all, I'm relatively new to linux, and an absolute neophyte to Samba. I have installed the Samba server (samba-2.2.4-2) on my linux box and have it networked to a pc running Windows98.

Hi Folks, I am a Samba newbie and needed some assistance with my configuration. I am trying to run Samba 2.2.2 (on Solaris 8 Intel Version) downloaded from Sunfreeware.com and have a Windows 2000 Professional box. I believed I followed the directions in SAMBA-How-To carefully but cannot get connection from a DOS prompt. When I run the command below from my UNIX box, here is what I get: The

Has anyone tried using Windows 2000 Professional with Samba? I'm checking it out now, and when I try to connect to a share, I get an error message similiar to the one you get with Win98 and NT4 with SP3+ with encrypted passwords. Does anyone know the equivelant registry path to set plain text passwords? The NT4 path doesn't seem to exist:

I have two Samba servers configure similarly. One shares fine across our entire network and the other only works within its own segment. I have poured over the smb.conf files and cannot see what it preventing the one from crossing segments. These both are Debian 2.2 boxes and I am just modifying the default smb.conf files. I am hoping a fresh pair of eyes will help. Any help would be greatly

Nope, doesn't work, and I need the drivers to be available and read from the linux server.
