this isn't strictly a samba question, but it is related in that i'm trying to a samba server as my domain master browser and multiple samba servers as local master browsers for a workgroup across multiple subnets. everything seems to be working wonderfully except for one WfWG host which does not show up in the browse list as expected. i notice that this host is announcing itself as a local master browser despite the fact that there is a samba server on the same subnet acting as a local master. is it possible to stop a WfWG host from announcing itself as a local master...

Hi all! Here is my problem: I have installed RedHat Linux version 6.0 on a computer and I want to share its resources via samba. Unfortunately, my computer - which is running WfWg 3.11 for Eastern Europe and the trumpet winsock TCP/IP stack is not able to see the samba server. Other computers, running Win95, Linux and WfWg with M$ TCP/IP stack perform OK. I have tried the following combinations: - samba-2.0.3 from the RH distribution and samba-2.0.4 from contrib.redhat.com,...

Salam to all Thanks for reading this. I am using Samba 1.9.17p2 on Solaris2.5.1 running on Sun sparc-20 servers. Our print servers are running WfWg. We want to print from Unix to Wfwg servers. I have tested print command of smbclient on a printer attached with a NT box and it works fine. But I want to print not only from command line but also from application (e.g Answer book, Visual works, etc ) to WfWg. So I want...

Dear users Thanks for reading this. Hope you will help me. I am using samba 1.9.17p2 on SunSparc-20 running solaris2.5.1 for printing and file sharing with PC-network. File sharing is working fine but I want to print to a WfWg printer from Solaris. So I have used your script smbprint.sysv and try to print. But I am facing following problems: 1- Some print jobs are printed and some are not. 2- I can only do command line printing e.g lp <file name> 3- I can't print from Xwindows a...

I will do it, security is never enough, however I would like to understand better if concerns are on the need of lowering AD DC security to permit WfWg to connect [lanman auth = yes, server signing = disabled] here I agree, better to let the AD DC run at full security and have a secondary samba member run at lower or the danger the WfWg machines could pose to the network, thus they need to run on a separate LAN of course those machines aren...

Has anybody got some experience with connecting machines running Windows3.1 or WfWG (3.11) to Samba? We would like to run a small lab network with user accounts and a shared printer off the samba box. Samba is running fine and there's no problem to connect to it from the Win95/WinNT machines... Any help appreciated. Frank Wornle, Glasgow Caledonian University Dept. of Engin...

I need the 3.11 be able to access a folder exported by something else and, with stability issues, it's working with windows 7/10 pro and it was working already before I replaced the windows server with a samba one... but I would really...

Hi, I have a network with a mix of Win95 and 98 machines (thus some use encrypted passwords by default and some don't. I already have all the users in a Unix password file therefore I'd like to use non encrypted passwords if I can and fall back on encrypted passwords if I don't have a choice (patched Win95 and Win98) because that requires people with encrypted password

Hi. Myself and a anti-Micro$oft companion tried to get NT domain logons working yesterday and seem pretty close, but not quite. Samba is 1.9.18alpha3, server is an Ultra-2 running SunOS 5.5.1. Encrypted passwords seem to be working, a la smbclient and mostly from NT, "mostly" because it *seemed* to be working but we did have some problems with home directories in smbpasswd changing

...and I have no idea why???? I'm going nuts trying to fix this. I've even gone out and bought the book "Using Samba" .... great book btw. The samba server is running on a SuSE linux system and passes all the tests in the DIAGNOSTICS.TXT file. It will happily connect to another WFWG 3.11 system. The win98 system can see and access the samba shares in network neigborhood. It can also see the shares on the WFWG system. I just can't access the win98 system from samba!!!!! I've increased the logging and don't get any more info other than the connection failed??? Th...

...listing the shares available on your server smbclient -L yourhostname Your should get back a list of shares available on your server. If you don't then something is incorrectly setup. Note that this method can also be used to see what shares are available on other LanManager clients (such as WfWg). If you choose user level security then you may find that Samba requests a password before it will list the shares. See the smbclient docs for details. (you can force it to list the shares without a password by adding the option -U% to the command line. This will not work with non-Samba server...

Greetings all, I'm running a RedHat 5.0 (kernel 2.0.32) Linux box with samba 1.9.18p7 and I'm having a problem with my netlogon share. NT domain logons are working just fine, but I keep getting the following message in /var/log/messages, repeated every day for every user logging in: May 26 09:08:09 gromit PAM_pwdb[23002]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) -> [username] for samba

this may be a remedial question, but uh, what's /etc/lmhosts supposed to be? smbclient always complains that it doesn't exist... should it? thanks... -E

Well. A priori. I'm a dedicated legacy OS person. I cut my teeth on command line DOS and then WIN 3.xx (these days that means WFWG 3.11). I drew the line at WIN9x. Hate that beast with a true passion, but because it is the 800 pound gorilla, I have to find some way to accomodate it in the future. So, here is the rub. Linux is a real PITA. Capital PITA. Unbelievably techie and that is bad. I say that because I was a techie...

...ected. Thus I would like to be able to monitor the UPSs connected to the OS/2 systems from a linux system. Unfortunately that appears to be problematic. The PCP 4.x software appears to use Lan Server for its network protocol while the later APC software uses TCP/IP for networking. The Windows/WfWG version of 4.x lacks network support. The linux version of 4.x is not binary compatible with modern linux systems and is closed source. I have posted on the APC forums and they have had nothing further to suggest to me other than to check third-party software or run the OS/2 software in a vir...

My server is RH 5.2 and i use Samba 1.9.18p10 and the client use WFW 3.11 with tcp/ip protocols installed. The subnet and the IP Address is right but I still only telnet form WFW 3.11 to Linux...not the reverse. On Linux telnet is working. I've checked it through this cmdline "telnet localhost 23 or telnet 127.0.0.1" . And I also testparm smb.conf and nothing wrong happen. FYI I set

...TLMv2 auth = Yes client lanman auth = No client plaintext auth = No ldap server require strong auth = Yes allow dcerpc auth level connect = No I set loglevel=10 to try to see if there was some error at the exact time the packet got processed, but besides "set_remote_arch: Client arch is 'WfWg'" I wasn't able to see anything relevant. The windows client show (from program manager): "<STOP> This device does not exist on the network." (from command.com: net use x: \\server\share) "Error 55: This resource does not exist on the network." Thank you....

Good Afternoon, We recently added encrypted smb passwords to our site. I just tried to add a printer to samba and it will not work. I tried to connect to \\sambahost\printer and it will not connect. All the older printers still work. I just wonder if there is an extra step I need to perform now when I add printers? Thanks for your time, Bill -- William M. Fennell Network Administrator
