Hi, I am hoping someone can kick me up the learning curve (!) on Virtualization: We have an old piece of data logging software that was written in Turbo Pascal 6 using a file I/O module tuned to Netware and so it expects its data files to be on a Netware server and will not access them locally or via an MS/Samba share - essentially, it uses direct NCP calls for parts of its data access. The logging software was replaced two years ago, but we need occasional access to the data for a minimum of 6...

...for the last week without success, so I'm either stupid or it's not possible. My money's still on stupid. Can someone confirm that I can't do what I want to do: - Have a SuSE 9.1 Linux box running Samba 3.0 exporting shares by SMB. - Have users log into Windows boxes running a NetWare client, authenticating by NDS to a Netware 6.5 server. - Have the Windows users mount SMB shares with an encrypted password that is authenticated by Samba against the NetWare server, either using NDS or LDAP. If I've understood what I've read so far, a Samba server receiving an...

....tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html 'Twas a quick read, given that I'm the co-author. ;-> I recently received an odd inquiry from someone I didn't know at all, posting to me in private mail from an IT concern in South Africa. He had heard mention of an rsync port to Novell NetWare, i.e., implemented as a NetWare Loadable Module (NLM), which can thus run as a network daemon on NetWare servers, and as such is bundled with a Novell-produced hardware appliance. The fellow wanted to know if Novell was obliged under the GNU GPL to provide him (1) binaries, (2) source code, or (3...

I'm a software developer at Novell. I have been tasked with porting OpenSSH to the NetWare 6.0 OS. I would like to include my NetWare specific changes,#ifdef'd of course, in the portable releases at some point. Whom should I contact with regard to this? And are there any guidlines I can look at online to minimize any disturbance this may cause to other platforms? Any assistance...

I have just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.70-pre8. The two main differences is that I have updated the gPXE source base, and added a sanboot module (sanboot.c32). sanboot.c32 *should* be capable of initiating an iSCSI or AoE boot, but I haven't actually tested it. The other main difference is that gPXE now advertises HTTP/1.0 instead of HTTP/1.1, since the code was not actually HTTP/1.1

...ad of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba would be faster. Here are the servers I'm testing against: Netware 4.10 386 80 MHz 20Meg RAM SCSI IPX/SPX NT4 Server Pentium 150 MHz 32Meg RAM SCSI NetBEUI (Default) & TCP/IP & IPX/SPX FreeBSD 3.4 / Samba 2.0.6 486 DX2/66 MHz w/ Evergreen Pentium upgrade (approx 100/133 MHz, at least faster than it DX2/66 ) 64Meg RAM VLB IDE TCP/IP To test I have been...

Hi, I run rsync, with a Netware-directory mounted on a linux system (using ncpfs) as DESTINATION of the copy. This configuration works fine, but rsync incorrectly sets the archive bit (modify) for ALL the files included in the transfered directory (both modified and not modified). In consecuence, the incremental backups on my...

Does this list supports the NetWare version (rsync.nlm)? if not does anyone know of a list that does? I'm having all sorts of issues with this ported version on my NetWare 6.5 server. Thanks Jon L.

I am using Rsync to backup 4 Linux/Samba servers to a Netware 6.5 server over a VPN. Also using cyRsync to backup XP computers to the same Netware 6.5 server ovre a LAN. Rsync is run from a cron job on the Linux servers and the actual process works fine. However, I have found that when I rsync to the Netware Server from either Linux/Samba or Xp, the file Da...

Howdy All, I am the adminstrator in a school which has netware 4.11 ( five servers in the nds tree )as its main student platform. This has been working very well over the past 6 years or so. The school has the ability to obtain a microsoft solution at no cost ( except for the new hardware required, which is the reason for this email in the first place ). Ad...

Affected: Various 2.x.x releases of samba on Solaris 2.6/8 and Netware 5.1 SP5. Problem: Unable to copy files from a mapped Netware drive to a mapped samba share on a PC desktop (W2K). Error: Several, but commonly "Cannot copy MYFILE. Access is denied. The source file may be in use" or "An unexpected network error has occurred". Has anyone seen...

...le-static --with-ldapsam When I compile it without --with-pam_smbpass, it compiles perfectly. Any idea how I can compile pam_smbpass separately? Please give me the steps and the download site if any.... thanks. Or anyone can give me the solution to this? 2. My scenario is as follows:- I got 1 Netware 6.0 server running ldap. I have successfully used pam_ldap and nss_ldap on my Redhat box to query the netware server and have configured login and ssh to authenticate with the Netware 6.0. Now I have included Samba into the server. And I want the samba users to authenticate with the Netware 6.0...

Hi, I have actual installation Debian Sarge (testing) with Samba 3.0.2a. There is Windows XP SP1 on workstations. I use Novell client 4.83 SP2 or 4.9 SP1 for Novell Netware connections. I try to run Samba as PDC. Everything is fine without Novell client. After Novell Client installation, I could not logon to samba domain. Client gives me message "Domain controller could not be found for specified domain", but I am sure that client found domain controller....

Greetings, I would be grateful if anybody can kindly give a pointer to port a Working netware 3.12 server using Centos >=5.x KVM howto? -- Regards, Rajagopal

Hi all, I am trying to migrate a NetWare file server to samba (on Red Hat 9). My problem is that unfortunatelly samba is somehow painfully slow, when we run DOS programs from it on the client machines. The NetWare server is an ancient machine. P1, probably. The Samba server is P4 3G, 1G RAM, RAID mirroring, etc. We are running and old...

I'd like to migrate a Netware 5.0 serve to Samba and LDAP. I'm wondering how I might export the usernames, passwords, and perhaps group memberships to the destination LDAP. If I can get the data into LDIF form, I'm okay from there. Does anyone know how the passwords in Netware 5.0 are encrypted? I hope to bring them ov...

I'm looking to move my companies server from an old Netware 5.0 file server to a Linux/Samba server on new hardware. Since my companies' systems are not mission critical (I can afford to be down for a few hours at a time after a switch-over) I feel I have the tolerance for some problems in getting it installed. Is this something I should be able to h...

I have attached a diff file with the changes to existing OpenSSH source files to accomodate the NetWare platform. All changes are #ifdef wrapped using one in one of the following defines: HAVE_NETWARE - Building for NetWare USE_EDIR - Using eDirectory(TM) for authentication. NICI - Using Novell International Cryptography Infrastructure (NICI) I have successfully built the OpenSSH-3.5p1 source w...

Howdy everyone, I'm new to this list and new to Samba (although others at my company have experience with it). Anyway, I'm sure this has come up many times in the past but I have several Netware servers that people at remote sites need access to. The clients are Windows 95/98/NT, they all connect to their own NT domain (one domain per site), and they do NOT want to install the Novell client. I know there was a release of 1.9.14 or something like that that was ported to Netware back in &...

Hello, I have ported rsync 2.5.5 to Netware and would like to, at least, contribute the binary so that people can download it. It says on the website to use the bug tracking system to do this, but since that isn't working, I thought I would try this. Thanks for any help or direction. Lee
