For two days now I've tried for two days now to get cifs working on a redhat 9.0 2.4.20 based linux box. I followed the instructions given at http://de.samba.org/samba/Linux_CIFS_client.html, i.e. compiling cifs-0.6.8 and mount.cifs rev. 1.2.2.1. I successfully loaded the cifs.o as a module and following the given examples I tried: [root@r151-101 cifs]# /sbin/mount.cifs //raid/demo /stud/demo -o user=demo,password=XXX mount error 22 = Invalid argumentRefer to the mount.cifs(8...

hello, maybe this is the wrong place, but according to http://us1.samba.org/samba/Linux_CIFS_client.html linux kernel cifs should be able to handle M$ dfs shares. I looked at the installation and usage instructions but it doesn't work. On the mount.cifs manpage I found no hint about a special switch to activate dfs parsing. Can anybody put some light into this? TIA -- Peter # uname -a Li...

I am seeing a problem that I am not sure how to fix and since I have never had to use samba for anything major like this I am not sure where to go. So, here is goes! I have a few Gentoo systems that currently have a bunch of data on them. I have been tasked with getting data from some Windows machines to the Gentoo systems so that we can dump the Windows machines. So, the windows machines are

...ny data inside these directories. A few days ago, someone told me that msdfs is used for the new structure of these fileservers. As far as I know, smbclient and smbmount doesn't support msdfs with redirects, so I tried the Linux Kernel patch for the Linux cifs client (http://de.samba.org/samba/Linux_CIFS_client.html). I successfully patched the kernel (debian 2.4.19), installed the modules and placed mount.cifs under /bin. I'm able to mount my home share from one server (no msdfs). mount -t cifs //server/uid$ /mnt -o username=uid,domain=domain,pass=pass,unc=//server/uid$ But I get an error if I tr...

Dear sirs! I kindly ask you to help me with the following problem. I need to mount MS DFS tree Linux filesystem. I have: Linux Slackware 9.0. Kernel 2.4.21 compiling with support SMB file system. Samba 2.2.8a compiling with --with-msdfs In order to mount I type: mount -t smbfs -o username=name,password=***,workgroup=work //server/DfsRoot/mnt/DfsTree after cd /mnt/DfsTree In the DfsTree directory

Hi! I've just searching the list archives but cannot solve my problem with mounting samba (v3.0) shares back on linux (RH 8.0 and 9). Mounting on Win clients works fine and any filenames (including long names with non-ascii chars and spaces) are perfictly supported and accessed. Mounting the share back on (even the same) linux box is a complex task. I use: mount -t smbfs -o guest

I have encountered this error: cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it. 26595: protocol negotiation failed SMB connection failed when I am attempting to mount a windows xp machine from a linux machine: mount -t smbfs //machine/share /root/smb_mnt -o username=administrator,password=mypass I have looked through the archives and found the following information concerning this

I have a question I hope one of you can help me with. In what version did Samba begin to include support for SMB signing? It looks like 3.0 but I need to be sure. According to http://de.samba.org/samba/whatsnew/samba-3.0.0rc4.html <http://de.samba.org/samba/whatsnew/samba-3.0.0rc4.html> on line 14 is states: 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure compatibility

I'm trying to set up a "dropbox" application that will monitor a directory for newly created files and process them. The problem I am having is that my linux process is not recognizing that a file is still being written to by another server. Here's the configuration: Redhat Linux with 2.4.9-31smp kernel using SAMBA 2.0.10 client to mount a share that exists on a Windows 2000

Greetings, I am trying, FROM a Linux Red Hat 7.3, to mount a share sitting on a Windows 2003 Server and I am getting the following problems. I had done this with a NT4 server and it was working fine. I am trying to mount the following: mount.smbfs //NT2003SERVER/share /mnt -o username=user,password=pass At first, I was getting the following error: cli_negprot: SMB signing is

In a past thread I've notice that smbmount (and mount's suport for it) will be discontinued and smbclient should be used insted. Sorry if the question is too lame but I use it in some of my systems now and I think I'll have trouble porting then to smbclient. Is smbmount been removed because it relays on kernel smb support? Samba will not need smb support in kernel in the

Hi, I have been playing with the latest alpha (samba-3.0alpha20) for a while now trying to get Kerberos and smbmount working together to access shares on a Windows 2000 Server SP3. As I understand it, without modifications to the code this should not work at all. I tried to make a few changes, namely setting c->use_kerberos=True and commenting out c->use_spnego=False. I also had to comment

Hello, Samba-users, please don?t beat me, but I have to ask this question here, as I haven?t found an answer I can rely on until now. I am working on a solution for a backup-problem and one possible solution could be the use of smbfs/smbmount. I am testing that now, mounting a WinXPHome(sorry, testing ...)-share which is 20GB of size (8GB used) to my linux-box. The linux-box is a bit more

...ize limit. There are patches that you can apply to -your Linux kernel (and possibly your Samba as well) to. - -Can you try using the smbclient command to copy the file to your -server? - -The other alternative is to try installing the Linux CIFS filesystem -module. See -http://www.samba.org/samba/Linux_CIFS_client.html - -- JF Jay, Thank you for your information. I've tried smbclient; that did not work as well: it stopped at exactly 4 Gigabytes (4.294.2967.296 Bytes) and that that it copied the file successfully - but it did not. Is that what you expected? Is it a k...

Hi, Excuse my poor english !! I have a problem samba between linux and windows. I explain my actual situation : - windows 2000 SP4 - share a directory my_windows : d:\jagodin\partage - linux Redhat ES 4 - kernel version 2.6.9-5 in /etc/fstab : //my_windows/partage /export/home/cerit/jagodin/partage smbfs

I know this question has been asked several times, and I appoligize for this being as long as it is, but I'm hoping someone may have it figured out by now. Here is the situation: I can mount a share from my Windows XP machine (RA), and from another Windows Server 2003 machine (MAAT). But not from my Windows Server 2003 domain controller (BASTET). I am running Samba 3.0.0 (standard RPM
