Hi, I've got a problem with a 2.2.2 samba server. It has, a number of times, recorded the following lines for a short period of time of 10 seconds, and then not again for days. Has anyone seen these before? It all appears to be random characters. It has only happened from 2 machines out of 30 or so.

Hello, I run samba 3.0.4 on a RHL9 server. Samba is a domain member of a W2k3 ADS and I use CUPS as printing mechanism; therefore Samba is compiled with Kerberos 1.3.1-7 and cups-devel. 3.0.4 runs pretty good, printing via CUPS runs well too, only the following messages I see constantly (this flooding my logs) while using 3.0.4: winbindd.log ========= [2004/07/27 16:07:04, 1]

Windows 98 client cannot print via samba to PrintPro printer "exported" via Cups/PrintPro on PrintPro/Samba server. "Exporting" with Cups on server node allows print drivers to be downloaded to Windows clients from the server. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Win98 node gim98.rsmas.miami.edu [129.171.97.21] connects to Samba 3.0.0-15 server "prima"

I used to be able to load printer drivers via "server properties". Now when I go in the printer drivers are listed and I can use the properties button but the Add/Remove buttons are greyed out. This is a Samba 3.0.0/2.4.2-SGI_XFS_1.0 box and I've tried both NT4sp6 and Win2003beta clients (both exhibit the same behaviour). I see the following in the log when I connect to

Just Installed 3.0.5rc1 and the problem persists unfortunately, heres a sample of my log : wins[15212]: [2004/07/12 12:31:03, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(600) Jul 12 12:31:03 mandrake1 nss_wins[15212]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (9 - 8) in safe_strcpy [TAENO~EI.PDF] Jul 12 12:31:03 mandrake1 nss_wins[15212]: [2004/07/12 12:31:03, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(600) Jul 12 12:31:03

I updated one of my file servers to 3.0.6, and while file serving is improved (no M$-Office file already open messages), every time I access a printer my logs flood with messages like to those below. It seems I can set printer properites, etc... but when I print the jobs seem to go to never-never land (still researching where the jobs go). [2004/08/20 08:46:27, 0]

Hi Jerry et al, I'm using SAMBA 3.0.0 on Solaris 9, it looks very cute, unfortunately I can not set the permissions on the printers (I can as an admin add a user etc. but all changes are lost after applying):-( Is this somehow related to the error entries in the log file: [2003/11/17 14:45:31, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(577) ERROR: NULL dest in safe_strcpy If so will it be fixed in

I'm new to SAMBA and to Linux. Am trying to replace windows file and print servers with RedHat9. I set up the server and installed Samba 3.0.0. I had everything running fine for two weeks(file and print sharing). Yesterday I must have tweaked something, because now I cannot print! I can connect to the printer via Network Neighborhood, but print jobs do not make it to the printer. I still

Hi! We have a lot of logfiles showing "zfl04.log.3: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (24 - 23) in safe_strcpy [organisation#rektorat#vrlehre#qe-eval]" I found a reported bug producing this output within older Samba versions than 3.0.4 . But we use version 3.0.10 and no mangling method set within smb.conf . Therefore it should be the defaultvalue hash2 which doesn't have this flaw.

Hello, I'm using samba 3.0.4 (on RHL9) as a W2k3 domain member in an ADS realm. For printing I'm using CUPS of RHL9. The XP clients get the CUPS printers (CUPS redirects the printjob to the JetDirect card of the printer) and the appropriate PCL drivers installed via the "Point 'n Print" mechanism. The clients get their printers installed via de AD login script and the there

Hi there, I'm using samba-2.2.2 under Solaris 8 and I've got the following problem! I have configured samba with "--with-utmp" and with "--with-quota" and everything works fine. But when look for the last users logged in, in the utmp-database there are only the first seven letters of the username, not eight that we use for usernames. Can you help me with this problem
