I am running Samba 2.2.3a and have my users logging into the 'samba domain'. My WinNT and WinXP users are working fine with roaming profiles and policies. My problem is my Win98 users. The logon script doesn't seem to be working, i.e. when I log onto a Win98 machine (logging into the domain), the logon script doesn't run. I have opened up the permissions to the logon script (for testing) and that doesn't seem to help, it's still not running. Also, I have...

...have had great fun implementing Isolinux within the FreeDOS cdrom distribution. Since I'm not that an expert at Linux, I would like to know how I can *succesfully* generate a bootable image from a partition. Situation is like this: (640MB RAM on system) 60GB IDE harddisk, primary partition 1 win98 500MB extended partition with 2 logical partitions about 50GB. I cannot delete these. The win98 primary partition is active and boots fine. Now I plug in my SCSI disk into it's controller, so I can boot from SCSI into Win2000. There I image the Win98 partition on the IDE disk with WinImage (u...

Is it possible to configure syslinux.cfg on a floppy to start Win98 on a secondary hard drive? If so, how is this done? Currently I have Linux and Win98 on the primary hard drive, and when I attempt to use the floppy to start Win98 on the second hard drive, I simply start Win98 on the first drive. I have tried many different approaches, all to no avail, and I...

Hi there, i have trouble with Win NT 4 and WIN98 in XEN DomU when i will install. WinNT says on Hardware detect: # i can find graficadapter, install fails, please reboot ... And Win98 starts in shell an says: # no valid cdrom drivers selected .... My install Disks are ISO Files, my Config: disk = [ ''file:/path/windisk.img,ioemu:...

...t certain that my Samba server is the correct server, because the conversation between the two appears to be the same. I've also set the log file to be %m.log, and watching the log for this particular host shows no traffic. Here's a sample of the tcpdump output: 18:16:47.085661 eth0 < win98-client.netbios-ns > samba-server.netbios-ns:NBT UDP PACKET(137): REGISTRATION; REQUEST; UNICAST 18:16:47.085823 eth0 > samba-server.netbios-ns > win98-client.netbios-ns:NBT UDP PACKET(137): REGISTRATION; POSITIVE; RESPONSE; UNICAST 18:16:47.581506 eth0 < win98-client.netbios-ns > sam...

i have heard some stories from some people who claim to have been able to set up a partition in linux and install win98 via wine and then having it fire up. i know wine isnt designed for this purpose but apparantly it has been done....who knows, maybe someone is pulling my leg. i'm just wondering if there is anyone out there who has pulled this off and if so how did they go about doing it. i tried it by trying...

I have a WinXP guest under VMWare on my CentOS 5.1 host and it can access the CentOS printer(s) just fine. However, I also have a Win98 box on the LAN that I would like to be able to print on the CentOS printer. When I try to connect to the printer, Win98 tells me that it can't find the network...? Any suggestions? (This "slightly" really is - it _is_ directly related to CentOS, unlike my previous FC8 post....) Th...

...ught an old Toshiba laptop back from the lakehouse to update it, etc. I also brought the server back to. On out local network, I can see all the boxes in the network from the laptop (hostname: dcrlaptop), but I can only connect to it's normal server (hostname: lakehouse). dcrlaptop is running Win98 and the host I am trying to connect to is running openSuSE 10.3. The exact samba version numbers are 3.0.28a-0.1.104-1670-SUSE-SL10.3 and 3.2.7-0.1.135-2042-SUSE-SL10, respectively. (and yes, they are both on the same 'Workgroup' to make the laptop happy. One thing that is really strange...

has anyone tried to make a win98 (beta3) connect to a samba server? Is there some little secret I don't know about? -Steve Schwartz steve@photographics.net

I can not get a laptop to running Win98 to mount samba shares on a Linux box, and I don't think it's the normal encrypted password problem. Here's the setup: Linux box has a class B ethernet connection to the internet and a class C connection to the laptop. +-------------------+ | Linux |--eth0--1.2.3.4---->...

I am running a small network consisting of a few Win98 machines, 2 NT (SP6) machines and a Samba 2.0.6 PDC. I am using domain logons, and everything is working fine. However, when I try to list the shares on a Win98 box fron an NT machine, having logged on with a domain-authenticated account, the Win98 boxes return an "Access Denied" error....

I think this question been asked/answered before, but please forgive me for this. I have Samba server on RH7.2 Linux and Win98/2000 workstations setup. both win98/2000 workstations connects to same samba share, Linux(samba server) user and Win98/2000 user/passwords are set same and i've updated both of win98/2000 workstations registy with win98/win2000_PlainPasswor.reg file from samba website. When I login to Win98...

...ient //IP address/sharefolder -U username%passwd. I got some errors like Session request to [Ip address] failed (called name not present). But I can use the same command from the same Linux to access a Window 2000 machine. I also noticed that If I use the the following command to access the win98 from the linux box, --- smbclient //win98 machine name/sharefolder -I IP address -U username%passwd. It works fine. So I began to think probably something going on with win98 smb server and I have to use the name instead of using something like //IP address/sharefolder to refer to that resoure....

Has any tried to connect to a samba server while using Win98 beta 2 as a client? I keep getting incorrect username/password errors in the samba log file and am unable to either map a drive or connect to a shared resource. With debug level set to 4 on the samba serve the main error seems to be error in packet at line 129 for cmd=117 (or something like that)...

...given on their site (hope it will be though). This issue is met in countries such as Switzerland (where I am), and many other European countries, because the translated versions of Windows are much more bugged than the ENglish one. Symptoms When copying a file with extended characters from a Win98-EN to a Win98-FR, Win98-EN won't be able to open, rename, copy or delete the file anymore. This is exactly the same issue between Win98-EN and Samba (Linux), whereas Win98-FR is working fine. Let's say the file you want to copy is "test-?.txt" from Win98-EN to Win98-FR or Samba....

...verybody, we are currently running a small network with a samba server and a few Windows _95_ workstations. The server stores roaming profiles for all users and provides authentification (logon scripts, policy file, ...) Now, we are planning to add a Windows _98_ workstation. Q1: Will Win95 and Win98 be able to work with the same user profiles, policy file etc? If not, what can I do? Q2: In general, are there any problems using samba with Win98 (compared to Win95 which works fine)? Thanks in advance for any advice, Andreas --------------------------------------------------------------------...

All - Client: Win98, first version Server: Linux Mandrake, Samba 2.0.7 I'm trying to setup a Samba server to replace a customer's evil Windows 98 server, and have run into a problem.

Dear all, I've successfully setup a Samba 2.2.3a file server with quota support on a RedHat Linux 7.1 with Kernel 2.4.18-ac2. Win NT clients (NT, 2K, XP) works fine, and samba report the quota per user as disk capacity. But Win98/ME clients don't. Samba report the filesystem capacity, and even worse, users can bypass their quotas ! I solved the problem using a dfree script written in perl, but I'd like to know if there is another solution. I think this problem occured because smbd process is owned by root when I...
