Let me start by saying I have been using Samba for several years now to support "mission critical" data transfer and have found it to be a truly awesome package. I now have a need to also share disk space from NT to Unix. One package I have found to do this is Sharity, does anyone have any experience with it? How does it compare to Samba for reliability? Are there any other free or low cost solutions? Thanks, Steve -- ________________________________________________________________ Steven J. Berlage | System Adm...

hello list, i am running Samba on FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE. i am able to mount network folders using sharity-light from one of my other freebsd boxes 'piper' on the network with the command: shlight //cessna/videos /usr/home/iain/vidoes when logged in as the user 'iain'. there is a corresponding user on the Samba server 'cessna'. i created a user 'sasha' on 'cessna...

Sirs, I hate to clutter your email with this inquiry, but I haven't been able to get info otherwise. I want to mount shares on an Microsoft XP Pro server on two Suns, Sparc running Solaris 2.6 and another Sparc running Solaris 8. What do I need for this?? I downloaded the Samba software from sunfreeware.com but it seemed to just allow the XP to mount the Sun shares. I hope you can help

How can I browse Windows from Unix? I'm using FreeBSD 4.7, Samba, and KDE3. I'd like to be able to browse also from command line. I have not found instructions on use of smbclient-win32 and do not want to use sharity. smbclien-win32 comes with and exe file and cygwin dll's - but what are you supposed to do with them, copy the dll's to system or system32 foler and just run the exec? and then what? I don't care if I sound stupid, but surely somebody could suggest where to find the information? Goog...

...t very nearly is so I'm hoping you can offer some help. I have a couple of Solaris 10 machines with the Oracle-supplied Samba on them. I'm looking to copy logs from BIND to an archival storage location. Solaris 10 does not support SMBFS so far as I know, so I cannot do a mount (I could use Sharity and am considering it). Do you have any advice about how I could use smbclient or something like that? Preferable would be able to somehow use rsync to the SMB location, but I don't think I'm going to be able to do that with smbclient. Any help -- pointers in the right direction would be...

Hi There Do anyone know about the posibility to mount an NT share into SunOS (SunOS and Solaris 2.x) operating system. I know there is a solution for Linux(smbmount, smbunmount), but this does not work on SunOS because smbfs is not supported. Is there a known port of the software on SunOS...? I have looked into using a piece of software called rumba(software to mount NT shares via smb to nfs)

I'm looking for a version of smbmount for FreeBSD or something similar. I was told that with FreeBSD i was to use mount. But i have no idea what file type and what the options are. This isn't in any documentation i could find on samba.org. If someone could help me? Share Path : \\192.168.24.253\LogFiles$ Mount Path : /var/ServerLogs UserName: LogKing Password: goLgniK

Hi, I'm having trouble connecting to an Appleshare IP 6.2 Mac that is doing SMB file sharing from my RedHat Linux 7.2 box. I've looked and looked and looked at many things and many SMB clients. I've tried smbclient, smbmount, Sharity, and even just doing a mount -t smbfs. All of them come back with something of this form: Protocol Negotiation Failed SMB connection failed. I have tried using samba 2.2.1a, samba 2.2.2. I have upgraded my kernel from 2.4.9 to 2.4.13 in the hopes that some of the smbfs fixes in 2.4.11 would...

Hi there, I've got two questions, and I'll list them in order of importance. (1) Is there a way, or is there any research/development going into unearthing a way, to mount a samba filesystem like any other filesystem under UNIX? And (2), does anyone know of a good X filemanager? What I would really like to do is be able to mount a Samba directory or resource and treat it like any

I believe I know the answer, but I'd like to be certain, since I keep seeing references to things like smbmount and smbfs... Is it possible to mount an NT (4.0sp3) share onto a Solaris 2.6/Sparc? I just grabbed Samba 2.0.6. I suspect not (I don't see any smbmount or smbfs in my samba/bin directory). Will this ever be a possibility? If so, when? And, are there any other options for

One of our daily jobs needs to process a lot of files on a solaris server and dump the files onto a windows server. We currently use sharity to accomplish this. However, the performance becomes worse when the files get larger. We want to find another approach to do this. The reason we didnt use samba was that very few users have unix accounts and they need to have write permission to the share. We dont want to create unix accounts j...

I'm new to SAMBA and am somewhat confused. So I'll get right to the point. Situation: I am running both UNIX (Solaris 9) and Windows 2000. I have a system running on Windows will be creating some large files. These files need to be input to a system running on the UNIX (Solaris) box. Solution? I would like to be able to have the system on the UNIX box be able to read the files on Windows

....samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2006-April/046454.html It seems to me that FreeBSD is pretty crippled as a client for samba networks because of this.. you just can't mount or browse such a network properly. (These sorts of trees can't be that uncommon.. what are people using for this... sharity??) Maybe Linux can do it with it's mount.cifs capability.. Has anyone tried it? Cheers, Julian

Hey, so i finally got it working thanks to your list (found the right place for EnablePlainTextPassword here, the existing 3-4 matches in the default registry don't seem to do a thing). It was all brilliant. I got connected to all my 4 samba servers. I was happy... 'til the next boot (you know, during installation of system, boots happen). Now it connects to 3 sambas (1 on FreeBSD, 1 on

...em... I compiled samba on Solaris (Sparc) 2.6 with v4.2 of the sun CC compiler. It compiles just fine, and I appear to have a working binary. I run into problems when trying to connect using smbclient. It works if I specify my username (using -U), but otherwise it won't connect. Both NT and Sharity _seem_ to connect fine - I just tried them.. when I could connect with smbclient, i asssumed the build was bad, so I hadn't tried earlier. Anyways here's a transcript of the problem... felix% whoami liamr felix% smbclient -L felix Added interface ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx bcast=xxx.xxx.xxx.255 n...

I am using a SCO Unix system version 2.1.2 where I develop some application. This SCO Unix system is connected to a TCP/IP network. On the same segment also a NT 4.0 server is running. This NT server makes each day a backup of some directories on the NT server. what I want to realise is, make a NFS directory on the SCO unix server pointed to the NT server. So that the applications developed on

Is there anything for xwindows that will let you browse the network like with microsofts neighborhood network? Rob Kobiske

Has anyone out there had success with smbmount smbumount and solaris 7? If so, please let me know how you installed it; ideally, I'd like to add it using pkgadd. So far I only have smbclient working. Thanks, Kevin

Hello. I just installed Samba 2.0.8 onto a shiuny new FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE machine, and all seems well from the client side of things - I can smbclient to other servers and access files and the whole nine yards. I even have Sharity-Light running and am able to mount shares that way. However, whenever someone tries to connect to my machine, they get denied, and I get this in the samba.log file: [2001/05/01 16:16:08, 0] locking/shmem_sysv.c:sysv_shm_open(667) Can't create or use IPC area.
