I've just about given up on trying to get WinXP SP2, Cisco VPN Client 4.6.x, Samba 3.0.x PDC and NetBT working properly - without long login and offline file sync delays. The VPN client is most of the problem when SP2 is installed, but all is fine with SP1. Being we have nothing but WinXP clients on the network, I'd like to explore disabling NetBT altogether, since the slowness completely g...

...y question is: how can I advertise a Samba server through UPnP/Network Discovery? I'm currently using Samba 3.2.6, but should be able to upgrade if needed. I am trying to build an IPv6-only network, for now just for testing purposes. The problem I am having is that Microsoft no longer supports NetBT on IPv6. Samba itself, of course, works fine over port 445, but without NetBIOS or WINS, there is no mechanism to browse the network (i.e., the list of computers under "Network" is empty). Microsoft's answer is Network Discovery (the new name for UPnP). Does Samba support UPnP, or ho...

Using Ubuntu 6.06.1, Samba 3.0.22, VMWare. Cannot access shares using netbios name, but ip address works. >From a workstation command prompt (member of same domain as samba), used net view netbiosname and got system error 5, used net view ipaddress and got list of shares. Ran ethereal and attempted a session with the server using netbios name. NBSS and SMB packets are being exchanged

My clients are Windows XP SP1 and SP2, members of a Samba-PDC NT domain (tested 3.0.7 and 3.0.10, same result). Attached is ethereal output of a two packet client-server exchange that takes place when an offline files sync is done. SP1 quickly does this exchange twice - first broadcast, then unicast (as attached) and goes on its way. SP2 tries, pauses many seconds, tries again, finally

...Sservice Pack 3 servers frequently log (in their event lists) that the browsing service cannot get the list of domain resources (the reply to NetServerEnum2) from the master browser (when the boxes are functioning as backup browsers). The situation is :- . NT machines browsing on both NetBUEI and NetBT (NetBIOS over IP) . NT machines configured as P (primary) nodes and using the local Samba for NetBIOS name registration and query . all machines on the same broadcast domain (subnetwork, segment) . Samba is FreeBSD 2.2.x + 1.9.16p11 log.nmbd seems to show that the critical names <domain>1b...

I can force a browser election with the Win98 command: net view /workgroup:workgroupname However, that does not work on NT (and I haven't tried it on W95). What I'd really like is a command from the Linux command line to force the election. I've looked everywhere and can't find it. For my purposes having preferred master=yes and restarting Samba is not an option. Does anyone

Anyone else experience this same problem or even have solved it?

Hi. We have some interest in using samba as a file server on a small device, but we have some problems with low amount of space on our target machine, the question is how low can we go? So far we have just made a quick samba packages that requires 22mb of space, however since we are not experts on samba, it could be us that are stupid :) What we want to have is a: Samba server that is

Hello u all, sorry to bring this issue back again, but I?ve been searching and trying all the advices suggested in previous posts and I still can?t see the samba server in the win network neighborhood. I can see the samba shares from win via net view \\servername but if I issue a plain "net view" samba won?t show up. only the win machines, the same i can see on the Neighborhood...

Hello, Due to a couple of circumstances, I am rebuilding my file server. In the process I want to see if I can iron out the last few issues I have had with getting active directory authentication to work. Ideally I would appreciate it if anyone can provide a link to a website that gives decently detailed instructions for setting up samba with user authentication via Active Directory

Overall it's been behaving quite well, but i did notice a few quirks: 1. root user cannot manage local machine -- when i try to run nbtstat -n, i get a NetBT driver not loaded error -- i cannot change the computer properties(buttons are grayed out) -- i cannot manage the user/group accounts using usrmgr.exe 2. net utility(on windows 2k/xp) doesn't work -- most of the time i just get an "access denied" error, but sometime the command woul...

We have one brand new HP EPC-43 which can see all the Windows boxes, but not the Samba shares on the Unix server. We have many other Windows machines of all vintages including 95, 98, 98se, NT, 2000, ME and XP which can see each other and the Samba server. The HP runs XP, but we have other XP boxes which have no difficulty with Samba. We have a simple network with no domain controller, just

I have upgraded from a almost perfectly working Samba 2.2.8a to Samba 3.0.0, I wished to join my NAS servers to the domain and it seemed something to do with DNS authentication was stopping them from joining, so I upgraded to Samba 3 (not beta) I have searched the web for reasons for this stange behavior but could find no explaination or fix, there are however other people having the same

Hi, ive read a lot in the howto about netbios/ddns, but im still confused if its possible for samba to only use tcp/ip without netbios. are there any howtos for this topic that are not mentioned in the samba3 howto? Greets Julius

This falls under the 'getting clearcase to work with samba' category. Does anybody know if the clearcase albd server actually uses samba to access files (or anything else) on the unix side? I am having 'discussions' with rational (the clearcase people). The nt user running clearcase to access some unix-side views connects to the unix side using a set of credentials that have

Hello, I'm having problems using Samba as an primary domain controller. I am using debian woody as our platform. The version of samba is "2.2.3a-12.3 for Debian" and i followed the instructions which can be found on the following url: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/eserver/tutorials/samba/. In short this covers: - creating the config file - creating the users /
