Is it better to start Samba using in initd, or to use the script, much like the one provided by SuSE. ?? so far I have used the script, but I don't like the fact of having to start samba manually. I would much prefer to see it run as a service. just to confirm all it really involves is starting smbd and nmbd Rowan [TSS] Gerber Scientific Products http://www.gspinc.com

I remember a while back seeing someone mention a device that would integrate an apple with a pcnetwork. basically it was a small box that had a samba server built in. you would connect your mac to it with the other side connecting to the hub of a pcnetwork. It would intern allow Apple shares to be viewed in network neighborhood, and macs to mount pc shares./ does this ring a bell with anyone.

dear redhat, i examined a friend's system today, to help him configure it. assuming that he just "installed" from scratch the samba package, it appears that you have provided a default smb.conf file for redhat 6.1 that puts samba private configuration files in /etc. the suggested options, for example show "smbpasswd file = /etc/smbpasswd". this is REALLY bad. 1) you

I have been having some problems recompiling the src.rpm for samba 2.0.5a samba-2.0.5a-0.src.rpm I used the command rpm --recompile samba-2.0.5a-0.src.rpm. But nothing apparent happens. Any one have any ideas ? Rowan [TSS] Gerber Scientific Products http://www.gspinc.com

ok I finally got 2.0.6 up and running, much thanks to those who helped. currently I have it set up on a 166, with a 2gig drive running suse6.0 with kernel version 2.0.36. I am using an NT PDC, with samba authenticating via the server. a few things. For some reason periodically when I browse the server my home directory will not show up. now that i think I may be logging in as guest but why

I just set up my samba box as a pdc on small (4) network that I have at home. whenever I specify user shares on my 98 client it is unable to get the user list from the Samba. I am able to log on without problem as multiple users. I also notice that when I logon on my 98 client it copies config files every time I logon. I imagine that I may not have the necessary shares setup. I am running

After fighting with trying to rebuiled my src.rpm file. I decided to use a plain old fashion compile from the tar files. which worked ok, no settings changed. at about 11pm last night I finished and noticed a few things that made me a bit uneasy. 1) all the Samba bin files were installed in /usr/local/samba/.. 2) no smb.conf file was created. I used ./configure, make , make install when I
