Hi all, I'm running Samba 3/FC4 as NT 4 DC with LDAP/winbind, everything's fine except a single XP workstation is not listed in the network neighborehood and I can't browse to the machine 's admin shares either, I've tried to remove and rejoin the machine to the domain, it joined fine, but I still can't browse to it, checked wins setting is correct also, any ideas? Thanks!

I have the following Samba share: [Programs] writable = yes path = /home/wes/Download I want myself to have write access, and everyone else to have read-only access. The write access works fine when I authenticate, but anyone that does not authenticate gets the you do not have permission error. The /home/wes/Download folder ACL has read access to group and others. What do I need to do to

Apologies if this question is answered somewhere obvious. I just spent a couple of hours surfing around trying to find an answer. I'd like to provide windows clients with access to files via samba and have samba (or other) do file versioning. In the case that a user happens to delete a file or we want to return to an earlier version, that should be possible. Is there a standard solution for

Hi List, From what I've read in many mailing lists, Samba 3 is not truly clusterable. From what I understand, people have been able to cluster Samba with varying levels of success. Transparent failover and active-active file serving ( 2 or more smbs serving the same files (through a cluster filesystem like GFS) from multiple cluster nodes simultaneously ) are two things that are not

I have just migrated to a new server and have Samba ver 3.0.12-5-SuSe running on a small network ( 7 win 98pcs) Logins are possible from all clients but morning logins (after client reboot) are delayed. It can take 2 or 3 attempts to successfully login. At each failed attempt the hour glass sits there for 30 seconds or so. logins usually succeed on the second or third attempt. I have searched

We have a directory where only one person can enter, but there is a file inside which needs to be accessed by other people (that person doesn't want to put that file in a common directory). I have found that if I make a hard link to that file it can be accessed, if the hard link and the directory where it lies have the right permissions. But hard links have a problem, they get

Hello, I'm trying to make browsing work over several routed subnets, but obviously, something goes wrong. Here's the situation : !-----------! ! hgsserver ! (SAMBA HOST) !-----------! | | | |192.168.2.0/24 !----------! 192.168.3.0/24 |-----------------! wifigate !------------- - - - | !----------! (several wireless WinXP boxes)

I'm putting together a spec for a big(ger) memory x86_64 host, and I hope some of you-all can help. I'm looking for success stories of hardware that folks are using in production environments, preferably with CentOS 4, with more than 4GB of memory per CPU. I know there are lots of mobos out there that can do this, but I'm looking for what folks really have running. Call me

What is the process for integrating a Lustre+SAMFS solution into an existing customer environment. The plan is to have CRS build the Lustre component, but Lustre and SAMFS will need to configured and integrated into the customer computing environment. I am very familiar with the SAMFS integration, but not Lustre integration. Do we have resources in PS to provide the integration? Is this

Greetings, What are the recommended compile-time options to accomplish the following: server is linux, auth is NIS want to use MSDFS security = DOMAIN user names and group names are mirrored in the AD domain and NIS (I sync them) I have this working great using 2.2.8a on the NIS master, but 3.0.0 does not work on another box (NIS slave) could the lack of passwd and group files be an issue?

Turns out it was a very simple fix - the perms on my dfsroot directories were a tad too tight. Setting debug level to 5 and wading through the logs showed me the answer.
