similar to: Rsync and Resource File Stripping on Mac OS X: Partially Successful

Greetings, Has anyone successfully compiled rsync 2.5.5 under Mac OS X (not Server), and actually have it work fully? I'm in a position where I'm trying to setup an automated nightly remote backup between and Cobalt Raq4 (running a variant of Redhat Linux) and a Mac running OS X 10.1.5 with the latest development tools installed. As has been pointed out previously on the list, one has

I've been trying to get my two Mac OS X computers to sync using rsync 2.5.5. I have one set up as the host with --daemon and the other with a client running. I was encountering an @ERROR: chroot failed error in my messages. I found that the problem lied in a misconfiguration of the rsyncd.conf file. I had tried to specify a POSIX pathway using the quoted foward-slash method. Once I got past

I have a small domain with a Samba PDB and two Windows clients. My goal is to have all accounts held centrally on the Linux box, but the administrator login doesn't work as an administrator. That is, I can login just fine as 'administrator' (or as any of the other accounts in the Samba password db), but I don't get administrative privileges in Windows. In smb.conf, I have:

Samba 3.0.21c, RHEL4. About a week ago, we restarted our Samba server because nmbd had run amok. Since that restart, our Apple clients have periodically disconnected -- by most reports, they disconnect every 15-45 minutes. It doesn't appear to be synchronized, i.e., every Mac on campus doesn't disconnect at once, but only occasionally. They get a message similar to: "A server you

A few computers -- two or three -- are very spotty about letting people log on. It seems -- and this could be off-base -- that they'll let anyone log on once, but will require a reboot before you can log on again. Sometimes, logging on works fine, though. There really appears to be little rhyme or reason to what happens. In the Samba logs, I'm getting: [2006/10/20 08:08:14, 0]

I have the exact same problem as this guy: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2006-September/125699.html He describes it much better and in much more detail than I could, so I'll let him speak for me. Unfortunately, I don't have the same solution. nss_ldap is configured properly, and things like 'getent passwd' and 'id machine-acct$' show the machine accounts as

Whoops, I apologize for the off topic e-nail. I meant to write a reply but I mixed up my messages to the various listservers I'm subscribed to. I'll remember to check my address next time. I've found a new way to run Rsync, it works pretty well, and involves a disk image mounted on a server that's created with Disk Copy. It serves our purpose pretty well for what we're doing

I'm trying to get Samba on a Mac OS X box running as a PDC with an LDAP backend. I've read through all of the major walkthroughs I can find, and we've actually already got it running very nicely as a file server; people are currently authenticating against a different PDC and then mapping drives from the Samba box in question. However, I'd like it to be the PDC eventually, but

What do we loose by not having post-auth privsep? What code is executed between authorization and actual setting of the effective uid?

I'm trying to troubleshoot a nasty problem with Samba 2.2.8a that I asked about here a while back, and I need someone with a working LDAP-Samba PDC -- preferably 2.2.8a, ideally running on Mac OS X, but I'll take what I can get -- to post the results of an ldapsearch for one of their machine trust accounts. All I'd need is the results of a command along these lines: ldapsearch -LLL

Is there any way to specify in smb.conf that you don't want to follow symbolic links, or to somehow disable this in smbclient? I have an smb file indexer, and whenever it hits a linux box with a symlink pointing to the current directory, it creates thousands of extra entries. I'd like to be able to simply not follow symbolic links, as I have no way of disabling the "follow

I've been using Samba with OpenLDAP with great success on normal servers. Recently however, it appeared to us that for remote locations it is more economically viable to replace Samba servers with Samba running on little routers like ASUS WL-500g with openwrt firmware/software. It has a broadcom/mipsel CPU, and thanks to openwrt (http://openwrt.org), it is possible to run lots of software

We've just gone live with a file & print server, and are having major problems with Samba. When used out of hours, with all PCs switched on and connected to the domain, everything works fine. However, during the day, we have problems where users can't print to any samba-hosted printer, Access database applications (where the database is held on the server) won't work, or work

I've found an error: ACLs are not properly preserved when a file is moved from Solaris to a 2.6 Linux (I'm testing using CentOS 4 update 3 plus updates). This is using 2.6.8 built with the acl patch on both platforms. The file on the source Solaris machine: [truffle:/opt]# getfacl /xxx/x # file: /xxx/x # owner: root # group: other user::rw- user:httpd:r-x #effective:r--

I had a problem similar to my current one a week or so ago, and I was encouraged to upgrade from Samba 2.2.9 to 3.0.7, which I did. Now that I've completed that nightmare, the problem I initially set out to fix is still there, just different. Namely: I am trying to set up Samba 3.0.7 on a SuSE 9.1 box as an LDAP PDC whose only job will be authentication. Our LDAP server is on a separate

I know this is a more Ruby thing, but I want to strip out all non-word (\W) characters from a string. Is there a regexp way to do this? Right now, I have: params[:object][:item].sub!(/(\W)*/,'''') but that only removes the first instance, not all non-word chars. Thanks, - Nic.

Hi, I have some html pages that are saved in DB and which require anchors for quickly jumping inside the page. People can edit the page manually, so in order to keep things clean I use Rails sanitize method to clean the html before output. The problem is that it is stripping my anchors. e.g: <h2 id=''team''>Our Team</h2> becomes <h2>Our Team</h2> How can

Hello All, I'am doing a video call between two Video Phones, and i see that Asterisk is stripping the fmtp parameters for the h263 video line in SDP. For example a line similar to the below is stripped, a=fmtp:xx CIF=4;QCIF=2;F=1;K=1 Asterisk is configured NOT to be present in the Media path (My version : Asterisk 1.4.19.1 ). I have the following enabled in my

I thought I had read somewhere that you can prevent the adding of the ^M's when copying a file to a samba share. (Such as doing an ascii ftp) Now I cannot find where I read this. I have a constant need to transfer excel files containing data to be uploaded and want to use samba to get these to the server. Can this be configured into Samba. I am using 2.0.6 on Solaris 2.6. When using
