search for: neigborhood

The subject says it all, I think. At home I have a PDC (Linux with Samba), and I have Win98 and Win 95(!) clients. And sometimes the domain name (workgroup name) is visble in the Network neigborhood, and sometimes it is not. I also got the impression that placing a link in the file NETHOOD makes a difference, but I am not sure yet. The PDC is visible, that is, it can be PINGed, I can connect to the shares, I can even login to it, but nothing shows up in the Network Neighborhood, and if I c...

I have a private IP network with one win98 PC and one Linux PC. The windows machine can only access shares if I map a network drive and type the path in explicitly. When I go to network neighborhood the Linux PC does not show up. Both machines are in the same workgroup, so it should be there. When I type the path directly into the address bar in network neighborhood the program stops

Hello, I have a WINS setup where my clients are on a different subnet. Some can see the samba server and some cannot. All can login to the domain fine and all can explicitly define a share like \\server\share but only a few can BROWSE network neighborhood. Any ideas on what I should be looking for here? thank you! -- Terry Davis Systems Administrator BirdDog Solutions, Inc. (402)

I recently set up Samba on a sparc 2 running sun os 4.1.3. It's set up as the browse master. We have a few PC's running NT, 95, & 98. On the NT machines, only the unix box shows up in the network neigborhood. Win95 & 98 are a little weirder: some machines show up and others don't. Any ideas on where to start? I've read the browsing docs and everything looks correct. Chris -- ========================================================================== Christopher Holmes...

Hi, I upgraded first to samba rc 4 and now to the newest CVS Version, because all my Windows XP Professional Clients cannot browse the network neigborhood anymor. Also mapping is not possible. What have I done wrong??? I have installed the Registry-Keys and all are domainmembers. Windows XP Home does work. Something to do with domain settings??? security = user domain logons = yes os level = 64 domain master = yes...

...f your service definitions preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No BDC1# I accidentally have BDC1 "local master = yes" initially but fixed that. I have not since restart smbd or nmbd on either machine. On a windows machine, in the network neigborhood, I can rt click on both PDC and BDC1, and select properties and verify that the machine is showing as a Primary or Backup. However, nbtstat on XP and nmblookup on Solaris do NOT show BDC1 as a domain controller. Specifially I am looking for "MYDOMAIN <1c> BDC1", to indica...

Has anyone seen the following anomaly? When I first connect to the Samba server, I run a logon script that maps 5 shares to drives F,G,H,L,M. Some time later, when I check "My Computer", I find that the share mapped to H: has been mapped to all the remaining drive letters as well! For example, after I mount /users on G: and /programs on H:, I'll notice at some point later that I

Thanx by the time you expected reading this, and for the time you take answer it.

Hi there, I set up my samba that it acts as a domain controller, when i start network neigborhood and click on the linux system and select netlogon ([NETLOGON] entry in smb.conf) i first had the problem with windows 98 that my password always was wrong. i fixed this with a registry setting (something with plaintext), now this part works. Now i configured my windows 98 for using a domain-server...

...n gone out and bought the book "Using Samba" .... great book btw. The samba server is running on a SuSE linux system and passes all the tests in the DIAGNOSTICS.TXT file. It will happily connect to another WFWG 3.11 system. The win98 system can see and access the samba shares in network neigborhood. It can also see the shares on the WFWG system. I just can't access the win98 system from samba!!!!! I've increased the logging and don't get any more info other than the connection failed??? The following is the exact command and the output when I use smbclient: gerry@leopard:~...

...2000 SP2 and PDC to Samba 2.2.2 we're faced with the following problem: The shares due to the static entries in smb.conf are accessable, the dynamic shares from smb.conf.%U as well. After 1-2 minutes the dynamic generated shares that are _not_ mapped to a drive-letter disappears in the network neigborhood (also "net view"). Trying to type "net use * \\server\dyn_ressource" brings no success. The logfile shows that the username is properly provided by the client. The test of including the variable %U in the comment of a static share in smb.conf shows also the right username. (eg...

I had some discussion about this problem at the end of January and have investigated further. The problem: Clients directly connected to the subnets of the Samba server get a browse list (network neigborhood), while clients that access the serveer over a router do not. there are no broadcasts, Samba is functioning as a WINS server and is working for all clients (nblookup proves this). I upgraded from 3.0.10 to 3.0.20b-1 but this made no difference. I have spent quite some time with Ethereal an noti...

...smbldap-tools-0.8.8 What works: Openldap seems to be working fine, and I can use SSH & IMAP with LDAP user credentials. ldapsearch work with starttls. smbldap scripts from idealx seem to work(also with starttls). smbldap-populate worked fine. as well as smbldap-useradd. If I browse network neigborhood with a w2k client I can authenticate to a users home share that is in LDAP. What doesn't work: wbinfo -g shows: BUILTIN^administrators BUILTIN^account operators BUILTIN^print operators BUILTIN^backup operators BUILTIN^replicators I would have expected it to show the domain name instead of B...

Hi, Is it possible that samba logs the windows username of the person that is connecting to a share. On many shares I use 'force user = testuser'. In the log I only see the messages "connect to service test as user testuser". This gives me only the username smbd should become. I also tried logging to a file which contains '%U' but this give me very often the

...ased home network. There is only one win client (NT workstation, Sp4). The samba box ist set up with wins support enabled and the NT box? wins server entry points to samba server. Everything works fine: no error messages neither server nor client. The server shows up immediately in the NT?s network neigborhood. Browsing is fast. !!But for example copying a file of 32 Megs takes 50 minutes!!
