Hello Everyone, I recently installed a MSCLIENT machine each time it writes to my samba 2.04b share it produces all uppercase filenames. Is the best way to handle this with "preserve case = yes/no" controls if new files are created with the case that the client passes, or if they are forced to be the "default" case. Default...

I'm running Samba 2.2.3 with winbind for authentication. Much to my surprise, I found I had a need to connect an MS-DOS system to the network. I'm using MSCLIENT to do so. I can successfully log into the domain and map drives on Windows NT servers, but I'm having trouble mapping Samba shares. Examining the log shows that the DOS machine is apparently trying to connect with a username of 'nobody'. What am I doing wrong? ---------- David Brodb...

Hi there I have encountered a frustrating problem when running samba 2.0.5a. The setup has samba 2.0.5a running under Linux 2.2.13 (Slackware 7). This is set up to provide access to users' home directories using the "homes" share. A DOS box running MSClient 3.0 is set up to mount a user's home directory as f: drive using the "net use" command from the command line. The PC is doing realtime data acquisition so apart from RT Linux (which would require a rewrite of the existing codebase for which there is no time at present) DOS is the onl...

Hi, I want to use PXELINUX to load a DOS disk image which I currently use for Win2K/XP unattended installs. I want to move away from reliance on specific NDIS2 drivers and use the 3Com UNDIS3C driver instead. I have used this successfully to start the MSClient, but the problem is that the UNDI and PXE layer take about 90K of base memory, which means that WINNT.EXE has insufficent memory to run after networking is started. I have already performed all the base memory saving tricks I can (including reclaiming 32K from the VGA BIOS area, loading DOS high,...

Has anybody got some experience with connecting machines running Windows3.1 or WfWG (3.11) to Samba? We would like to run a small lab network with user accounts and a shared printer off the samba box. Samba is running fine and there's no problem to connect to it from the Win95/WinNT machines... Any help appreciated. Frank Wornle, Glasgow Caledonian University Dept. of Engineering

I am using memdisk to remotely flash the BIOS and other firmware. It works well for most flash programs. After the flash I need to initialize the NIC to send a signal to my management server that the flash is complete. I am curious as to how others have solved this problem. Thanks.

...ody help me.. here is my problem: I have a little LAN with a Samba Box (It's my PDC), and some DOS PCs, running my core bussiness application (Foxpro 2.6) All the Boxes are Intel 440BX2 whit Celeron 600MHZ, HD 10GB Maxtor 5400RMP, 64MB RAM and 3Com 905B Nic. The DOS Box have MSDOS 6.22 with MSClient 3.0 everything it's Ok about the connection and autentication with samba, the problem is that the Network performance is too slow when i try to copy some files to the samba share folder from the DOS Box. When I try to do the copy in the other way (From Samba Server to the DOS Box) the copy it&...

Hello, I read some of your latest articles depending on DOS and Samba. You always mentioned TCP/IP 32, LANMANAGER-Client from IBM and this mysterios MS Client 3.0. What I would like to know is, if there is a MS-DOS IP stack available, which could use a WINS-server and connect to Samba using NETBEUI over IP ??? I use TCP/IP 32 at the moment for my old windows-clients. Problem is, I have some

Hi everyone, Here is the problem: I have a server running Red Hat 5.2 and Samba-2.0.4 as file server for about 20 diskless machines with MSClient boot disks (created with NT server SP3). The server shares a dir with a Clipper/DBF database for those clients and the EXE file is in a NT machine. For weeks I've been trying to put the things together but the clients always break with those "oplock break request" error, even when I d...

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul

hello and thanks for reading this, i am doing a volunteer project for a school in harlem,ny. they have had donated 30 nics computers from thinknic.com. it can pxe boot. it had a cdrom and it has no hard drive. i am looking for ways to boot windows98 on these machines. i read on some site that memdisk can be used on legacy os. before i spend days testing it out, is it possible to boot windows98

Hi All, Here's an interesting one... I need to be able to connect smbclient on a linux machine to a dos based machine, which is running MSCLIENT and the WG1049 patch. I can browse to the machine and see all the files from Network Neighbourhood in Windows, but if I try and go in with: smbclient \\GAUGE1\C, or even just smbclient -L GAUGE1 all I get is: Added interface ip=10.0.1.1 bcast=10.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0 Got a positive name q...

Hi, I've just installed Samba 2.0.3 and now I'm getting following error: PAM_pwdb[306]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) -> andreas for samba service I can connect to all shares and printers, but get the error. I suppose it has something to do with the passwords (I'm trying to sync Samba and Linux passwords). Any ideas? /Andreas

I have tried all I can think of to resolve a samba performance problem. Below is a description of the problem. The Red Hat server is actually a higher performance machine than the NT machine, though they are close in capabilities: > When I first installed 5.0 I notices slow samba performance. By slow I > mean around 80K/second doing a normal copy to the server from a Windows > 95

I was surprised to see that this hadn't made it to the samba list yet. Note I have not spent any time trying to confirm validity. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 26 Sep 1997 00:21:55 +0200 From: root <root@ADM.KIX-AZZ.ORG> To: BUGTRAQ@NETSPACE.ORG /* ___ ______ _ _ / \ | _ \ | \ / |
