Hi folks, I've had a setup working for quite some time and everything's fine except that the server that hosts the WINS never appears in the network neighbourhood, and when trying to connect to that server there is a small delay. As few people need to browse to it, the problem's had a low priority as the WINS side of it is working fine, and the rest of the nethood is also working

Hi to all, I have a samba server that was working with security share in one subnet and now is listening on another interface, configured as a PDC logon server with wins support and w98 clients, I followed the howto: http://www.linuxfocus.org/English/March2002/article177.shtml The clients added to the domain execute the logon scripts fine, but they do not see the samba server in nethood, though

hi, I'm getting a build up of domains in the NetHood. Every time somone plugs into the network w/ a computer on a different domain (usually a laptop) it get's left behind and does not clear out.

We have been using rsync for some time with Linux and FreeBSD, but are just now trying to make it work with Windows. Not as easy as we hoped. I am running the cwrsync client 3.0.6 on a new Windows 7 machine to a FreeBSD 8.1 server. I have an exclude-from filelist, which does seem to successfully exclude the directories given by many of its entries, including these two lines: Documents/My[

I can ping and even access cliente shares using \\CLIENTE\myshare\ from either subnets looking logs I only could get these lines: BAR LOGS [2012/08/24 11:31:02, 3] nmbd/nmbd_inco...

I'm trying to backup certain pieces of my XP workstations home directory to a mapped drive using rsync on Cygwin. I was able to create a fairly useful exclude-from list, but I'm unable to re-include portions a subset of an excluded directory. My rsync command looks like this: rsync -avn --delete --stats ~/ \ /cygdrive/i/HRMS/rdavies/backup/home \

Hello I've googled and experimented for the past few hours but am still stuck trying to simply share a temporary directory in read-only with anyone on the LAN. Here's the smb.conf I'm using: ================================== /etc/samba# cat smb.conf [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP encrypt passwords = yes ;wins support = yes ;log level = 1 ;max log size = 1000 ;read only = no guest

Help! I've broken something on my NT box - when I try to connect to my Samba server through the nethood I get an error popup that says: "<servername> is not accessible The storage control blocks were destroyed" I can connect to another samba server with no problem, other users from other machines can connect to the above server with no problem either. I can connect with net

Hi, I setup samba according to the Howto and I'm not sure but I can't find my samba box in netowrk neighbourhood. If I run \\(samba IP address) I get it fine. It just doesn't show up in the nethood.

We have an Apple OSX 10.3.4 Opendirectory (LDAP) Server with an SAMBA (3.0.2) PDC Server with roaming profiles for Windows XP (SP1 Prof) Clients on the Server. The Share for the PCs is only shared with SMB. When a PC log off, the profile will be copied to the server and brings the error message that the files prf*.tmp can?t be copied to the server. This error message occours not every time and

I don't understand Windows permissions under Samba. I am running an smb server under CentOS-5.4, and have a Windows XP Pro machine ("harriet") as a client. I have set up shares C and D on harriet corresponding to the 2 drives C: and D: on the machine, and I have asked that files should be shared. Now when I mount harriet:C I can see the top level folders, but cannot see Documents

Just started with Samba a few weeks ago so am still a newbie. Am serving a single W-95 client reasonably well - it allows users to log on using their unix id and passwd, and they can all browse their unix home directories. However .... I can't seem to get the "hide dotfiles" directive to work. Nor the "hide files"! Also, If a user on W-95 saves a file to unix called,

For some reason It's not erroring now, I will look into it more, but I suspect it鈥檚 the settings, the last thing mentioned David > [globa]l section is fine, as long as it's not also set in the share section. So, yeah, that may have fixed im for the time being not getting the sparse errors, for the first time in 4 months, however, there is a couple other problems, so hopefully they

Hi. My Documents, My Music, My Pictures, and My Videos aren't visible (but accessible) from C:\users\%USER% . "Desktop", however, is visible. This breaks precompiled samples from directx SDK 2004. I extracted them to My Documents/Downloads, and they can't find their resources. This also affects cmd.exe, explorer, total commander. Anyone else experience this? Code: [il at mar2

Hi All, I have gained my basic Linux / Samba knowledge from using SME server (www.contribs.org) More recently I have started to use Trustix Linux to build servers for specific things for example as a print server. I installed Trustix and the most recent Cups/Samba rpm's from the repository (I am pretty sure they are the latest stable releases) but I can check version numbers if this helps.

Hi all, In lieu of Timothy''s pure Ruby junction code, and Zach''s VC++ 6 issues, I decided to just rewrite the dang thing in pure Ruby using Win32API. That will solve''s Zach''s problem and make it easier to add Timothy''s code, which I plan to add (slightly modified) to the 0.2.0 release. The code is below. One thing I have a question about is how to
