similar to: Securely backing up Linux machines to NAS?

I ran into a problem that I couldn't resolve straight away, but would like to solve for sometime in the future. We have a Thecus storage server (similar to a Buffalo TeraByte, if that helps?) that has a Mac filesystem on it. The mother board was failing, but the drives are still OK. A new box has been added, so the urgency is sort of gone. I was going to try and back up the data to a new

Hi all I want to look at setting up a simple / cheap SAN / NAS server using normal PIV motherboard, 2GB (or even more) RAM, Core 2 Duo CPU (probably a Intel 6700 / 6750 / 6800) & some SATA HDD's (4 or 6x 320GB - 750GB). My budget is limited, so I can't afford a pre-built NAS device. Can this be done with CentOS? I've been looking FreeNAS (which is built on FreeBSD), and it

I did a similar DC upgrade from 4.1.13 to 4.6.6(like your option 1, upgrade on existing AD servers, I have two, first upgrade on none-FSMO). and I don't have any issues with the DC upgrade itself. But be careful with your member servers. After the upgrade, I have to change some default values on file servers: 1. samba 3.5.10 member server(rpm from CentOS 6.2) lost connection to samba

I have a setup of Ubuntu 8.04 running Samba 3.0.28a. Connected to our network I have a buffalo linkstation acting as Network Attached Storage (NAS), which I have successfully mounted on the local file system. Using smbcquotas I believe I can set up a quota for each user on the NAS. To get started, I run the command: smbcquotas //192.168.1.4/share -S FSQFLAGS:QUOTA_ENABLED -A

Hi, I have recently set up an old machine as a linux fileserver (Intel 815E board with 512MB ram and PIII 800mhz). I am running the latest Fedora Core 5 with the version of samba 3 that ships with that and am exposing a single share for my software raid (4x400gb PATA seagate drives, running from two siig ATA cards so each drive has its own channel) I also have a buffalo 1.0tb terastation

Hi there, Has anyone tried to configure a NAS server to authenticate users using a Samba PDC, or even a Samba4 DC (AD-compatible) or an IPA server? I'm evaluating replacing some Linux file server for a NAS product, but all them make me nervous when the vendor talks about "Active Directory support" and nothing else. In theory, many NASes are Linux boxes running samba, so there

I have a client with a handful of USB drives connected to a CentOS box. I am charged with binding the USB drives together into a single LVM for a cheap storage data pool (10 x 1 TB usb drives = 10 TB cheap storage in a single mount point). The next fun piece is how to incorporate that storage space into an existing Active Directory structure to apply AD acls for limited access. I'd rather

Forgive me if this has been addressed here before. We have a remote office that we need to backup to our NAS. We have a site to site certificate VPN. The remote site has over 51gb that needs to be backed up to our NAS over that VPN. I have tried this command: rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times --perms --links --delete /Share/* /

I'm moderating the samba-technical mailing list. This post is more appropriate on samba at lists.samba.org So I'll just answer on this one and discard the post on samba-technical < Hi, < I have to linux server and using samba beetwen all win xp and win7 clients. < I need to have som SAN box that working az raid 5 and backup. < What I find is just supporting windows OS not

Hello, first of all - thanks for creating tinc! It has become an invaluable tool for me to securely join a multitude of servers and clients through a VPN. Today, I was trying to compile Tinc 1.0.12 on my newly purchased x86 Linux-based QNAP TS-239 Pro NAS device (Kernel 2.6.30.6). The configure-script finishes without error (see attached config.log). However, configure.status fails with

Hi, I migrated from an MS NT Domain to a samba3 domain some time back. I forgot about a couple of machines and am trying to add them. These are Buffalo NAS workstations so are basically *nix machines with a web interface. I have not had to add any machines to the domain from the samba PDC before. This is what I've done. I tried to add the machine using it's web interface but it failed and

Hello All, I build a new Storage Server to backup my data, keep archives of client files, etc I recently had a near loss of important items. So I built a 16 SATA bay enclosure (16 hot swappable + 3 internal) enclosure, 2 x 3Ware 8 port RAID cards, 8gb RAM, dual AMD Opertron. I have a 1tb boot drive and I put in 8 x 1.5tb Seagate 7200 drives. In the future I want to fill the other 8 SATA bays

Having snapshot technology is great. Who else supports it? Thanks. Scott

Hi I have successfully joined my Sun NAS device to my Samba PDC (version 2.2.10, security=user, encrypt passwords=yes) However, when I try to map a drive to \\nas\home it wont accept my (correct) password and the NAS log says : NetrSamlogon[BIOSS\janet]: SAMBA_ACCESS_DENIED (Samba PDC) Have I missed something ? Do I have to set up a trust account or is it to do with encrypted passwords ? --

Hello all, Our Samba AD DC is running perfectly for years with the following basic setup (see smb.conf below) : - one DC running Samba 4.1.7 / CentOS 6.5 (compiled from sources) - internal DNS - this DC is also a Print Server - about 400 PC workstations (mainly win7 Pro / win10 Pro and some XP Pro), and about 300 users - several Synology NAS file servers

I set-up a basic AD DC using samba 4.1.9 successfully. I joined my NAS to the domain, i.e. I saw no errors and see the users and groups of my AD listed in the GUI of the NAS. When I try to connect to a share of the NAS the following happens: mgr at ws1:~$ smbclient -U 'AD\mgr' //nas/Test Enter AD\mgr's password: Domain=[AD] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.9] tree connect failed:

Hello! I have a data frame with some NAs. test<-data.frame(a=c(1,2,NA),b=c(10,NA,20)) I need to sum up values in 2 variables. However: test$a+test$b procudes NAs in rows that have NAs. How could I sum up columns while ignoring NAs (the way the function sum(..., na.rm=T) works? Thank you! -- Dimitri Liakhovitski marketfusionanalytics.com

Hi. I am currently converting a lot of R code to C in order to make it more efficient. A lot of the data involves NAs. As the data is mainly integers > 0, I am just setting all NAs to 0 then sending it to the C code then resetting them to NAs again after the C program is done, to be compatible with the rest of the R code. Is there a more efficient way to deal with NAs in C? I have used

I saw that libao has a NAS plugin and wanted to try it out, especially with ogg123. However, I had/have several problems. My platform is Solaris 9/SPARC 12/02, NAS 1.6, libao 0.8.5, curl 7.10.8, libogg 1.1, libvorbis 1.0.1, and vorbis-tools 1.0.1.
