Hello, Although I've been using samba for years at my customers office, I recently moved one on a HP E60 server running RedHat 6.2. The samba version is 2.0.6, untouched from the distribution. They use a (weird) accounting software built on the top of FoxPro, requiring a *huge* amount of open files. I accordingly raised the values for files-nr and inode-nr and the stats seem ok. They have

Samba Gurus. We run W95 and NT4 clients in a mixed environment of Netware and Samba on SGs. Netware is the primary network login(over IPX/SPX). Am using clear text passwords for the Samba network. NT 4 is patched up to SR 3. Samba version 1.9.18p7. Problem. Samba performance from NT 4 machines is VERY slow. Many orders of magnitude slower than W95 which is very good. This performance

It is an artifact of Unix/Windows permissions, but it seems bizarre that Samba doesn't fail in the cd-equivalent... OOK! Found it. Any change-directory operation is done as a lazy evaluation, just like Unix. Therefor, the cd should fail if and only if there is n...

When I try to join the Win2k machine to a domain, I get the following message: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "WIN2K": The procedure number is out of range. This is a Win2k PC attempting to join to AIX 4.3.2 running samba 2.0.7. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bill -- /------------------------------------------------------\

I recently downloaded and installed binary versions of Samba 2.0.7 on two Sun Microsystems platforms running Solaris 7. One of the machines is an Enterprise 5000 and the other is an Ultra 10. I set up both servers for USER lever security and set all shares to be browseable. Both were set to be in workgroup SUN. When first installed, both machines appeared in workgroup Sun under Entire Network on

Dear Dave, Doesn't this only work if you're using samba as a domain controller and the client says "net use h: /home" I've not got it to redirect "//server1/username" to "//server2/username" when the NIS map says "user server2:/path/&" Though if it could be done I'd be VERY keen.

Has anyone worked out a way around the 1+16 group limit imposed on Solaris in regards to samba. Our situation is that users only see the Solaris 2.6 server via Samba - ie. no user has telnet or general unix access to the server. Is there a way using Samba to allow users to belong to more than 16 secondary groups (ie. bypassing the underlying unix group limitation). I am aware that you can

Hi there everyone, Again another slight thing I noticed since I upgraded to Samba 2.0.6 from 2.0.5a. I'm using RedHat Linux on a Celeron 400 with kernel 2.2.13. My socket options in smb.conf is set to "TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192". However I've started getting the following everytime I SIGHUP to reload the configs and stop-start:

Hello Brent, I'm writing in regards to the thread you opened @ samba.org concerning authenticating users against AD using winbind. Did you need to manipulate the PAM modules? Currently when I run wbinfo -t I get secret is good, and when I run wbinfo -u I get a list of all users but I can't get SAMBA to accept my domain users. Regards, Jesse

We have been looking for a way to notify our users when they are running low on disk quota, without sending them mail. WinPopup actually seemed like the best way, so my partner began looking at feeding quota output into smbclient -M when quota was getting tight. The only problem is that smbclient -M frequently fails to find the client's host name. The -I parameter will often fix it, but I am

We're using Samba 1.9.18p10 on a Linux 2.0.35 box as a fileserver chiefly for software development under VC++. Builds are done from the command line, not the IDE. I'm seeing rather slow build performance under NT4SP3. Build performance is fine under Win95. Build performance is also good when building from Samba 1.9.18p8 running on a Sun UltraSparc. To give some concrete figures, building

I have just been upgrading my Samba servers from 1.9.18p10 to 2.0.6 So far as I can tell users have been happy (or at least not noticed!). Our clients are almost exclusively NT 4.0 (most at SP5). Our servers are Suns running Solaris 2.5.1 and 7. On upgrading 2 of our busier servers (for admin - home directories and NT binaries), I observed a considerable increase in server load. Home server

When the students arrive in a few weeks, we will have several thousand registered samba users and (we anticipate) several hundred simultaneous Samba connections. (This will be our first period of significant Samba use.) Our management folks are asking about collecting periodic Samba usage figures. This is a bit vague, but something like a rolling count of simultaneous connections, per-user

Hi, I have this code fragment: def test_delete_concept assert_not_nil Concept.find(concepts(:entreprise).id) get :delete_concept, {:concept_id => concepts(:entreprise).id} assert_raises :RecordNotFound, Concept.find(concepts(:entreprise).id) end basicaly, on the first line, I make sure that the concept exist in the DB. On the second line I delete the concept fron the DB.

We're had some recurring problems with nmbd's on Solaris 2.7 and Irix 6.5 failing to renew their WINS registrations in a timely manner causing the records to become tombstoned. While we've solved it by issuing "pkill" and "killall", respectively, of nmbd nightly from root's crontab, I wanted to alert the authors and other administrators to the problem so similar

I had no luck with my previous post, so I try again: Would someone please help me with the "create mode/mask" settings and/or others if needed, or point me to some docs. In the following 2 examples, I cannot find the correct settings: I use the [netlogon] share, and edit logon scripts there from my Windows machine. The group gets set to my user name's group (mi), execute by others

Hi, I have compiled Samba 2.2.3a on Solaris 8 7/01 to produce 64 bit binaries and to use the 64 bit i/o functions. The compiled code has been installed on two identical Sun Servers, the key differences between the configurations is that one has the maximum number of file descriptors set to 65000 (Solaris configured for 65356) and has op locks disabled because it is being used with Clear Case.

I have centos 4.8 i686. It has stock sendmail. see file below. I am getting reports that it is an open relay. I have searched all around and it seems like it should be closed. I have dnl for accept_unresolvable_domains. What can I do to close my sendmail. Thanks, Jerry My sendmail.mc is as follows: --------------------------------- divert(-1)dnl dnl # dnl # This is the sendmail macro config

Hi, 1) Can the online api docs get updated? Specifically can the overview pages get added in to the main http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/ index.html page? I happened upon the link to the Event Overview page while browsing some class and wished that it had been listed in the Event section of the index page.I don''t know how many other "overview" pages there are but it
