Hi, I live in Portugal. I have a Windows 2000 server with file sharing activated in my company. I have a linux box with a 200Gb disk for backups with rsync. I make an smbmount to /mnt/w2kbox then I use rsync like this: rsync -ar /mnt/w2kbox /200gb_disk The problem is that we use accents and cedillas and those files are not copied to the backup directory. Rsync says: file has vanished: "/mnt/w2kbox/Company Folders/Dep. Administrativo/JOANA/PRE??ARIOS EXPOSI??AO.xls" Some wor...

I have been having problems trying to get my samba mounted windows (XP) shares to mount at boot time on my Redhat 8 machine. I have tried changing the start order of things, but it didn't seem to help. Here is the interesting bits from the boot.log Feb 1 11:17:46 vortex-550 network: Setting network parameters: succeeded Feb 1 11:17:46 vortex-550 network: Bringing up loopback interface:

...using RedHat 7.1 and the winbindd daemon found in the samba-appliance-0.5.1 RPM) I did the same thing somewhere else, the only difference is that the Windows server is a W2K box. When I try to create a machine account on the domain controller with samedit, I get the following: samedit -S 'W2KBox' -W DOMAIN -UAdministrator (substituting DOMAIN with my domain name off course...) this asks for a password, I enter it, it works, I get the following prompt: [DOMAIN\Administrator@W2kBox]$ Everything fine so far... now, when I enter the command [DOMAIN\Administrator@W2kBox]$ createuser M...

...othly. The 2000 and the XP box also have shares on them. All of the windows boxes can see each other, connect to the shares, no problem. Here is where it gets interesting; The Linux box can mount a share on the Windows 2000 box without problem. ( i.e. I can mount the \\ <file:///\\%3cw2Kbox%3e\c$> <w2Kbox>\c$ to \mnt\net1 on the Linux box) However, I can't mount to the XP box in the same manner. It seems like M$ has built in some kind of noncompatability for Samba (Wouldn't surprise me there), or at least noncompatability with SMBMount (or 'mount -t smbfs' )...
