When somebody is hammering on the system, I want to be able to detect who''s doing it, and hopefully even what they''re doing. I can''t seem to find any way to do that. Any suggestions? Everything I can find ... iostat, nfsstat, etc ... AFAIK, just show me performance statistics and so forth. I''m looking for something more granular. Either *who* the

Could it be possible nowadays (understand: with the newest kernels and tools) to mount the root filesystem of a Linux client over CiFS? Just like what is already possible for a long time with NFS. The server would be Samba, not Windows. Just wondering... -- J?r?me Warnier FLOSS Consultant http://beeznest.net

hi list, we recently saw the following weird behaviour on samba v3.0.13 with MacOSX panther and tiger as clients --setup-- [share1] path = /data valid users = @admins force user = administrator inherit permissions = yes force create mode = 770 force directory mode = 2770 [share2] path = /data/folder valid users = @noadmins force user = administrator inherit permissions = yes force create mode

I just tried to mount Windows 2003 share. I used the following command to mount it: mount.cifs //10.1.1.1/G$ /mnt/2003/ -o user=admin,domain=MYDOMAIN The mount is fine, I can read the files. However, each and every file is owned by root, which is not true. Moreover, each and every file and folder has the same permissions, which is also not true. I can change the owners and permissions, but

hi, i just do some tests with a fresh compiled samba 3.0.23a. trying to authenticate against PAM with pam_winbind gives: Aug 1 09:59:21 humevo36 pam_winbind[27853]: pam_winbind: pam_sm_authenticate (flags: 0x0000) Aug 1 09:59:23 humevo36 pam_winbind[27853]: Verify user `gasch' Aug 1 09:59:23 humevo36 pam_winbind[27853]: enabling cached login flag Aug 1 09:59:23 humevo36

Hello list, i did a quite sucessfull net rpc vampire but one promblem remains. Everything is fine, but the user group memberships aren't restored. Only alle primary group member ships are restored. every user is in the primgrp (4126 Users). All Groups (2659) are restored including sids. but no membership is restored! I don't know why. here's my command: net rpc vampire -l -S nt4pdc

We have been researching stuck zombie processes in our libvirt lxc containers. What we found was: 1) Each zombie’s parent was pid 1. init which symlinks to systemd. 2) In some cases, the zombies were launched by systemd, in others the zombie was inherited. 3) While the child is in the zombie state, the parent process (systemd) /proc/1/status shows no pending signals. 4) Attaching gdb to

hi, i read about samba4wins, which is really a great work from the team! do you know, if this will work with samba v3.0.14a? i ask because a german news service writes that it?s only possible with 3.0.21 (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/69132), but i can?t find this information in the notes on http://ftp.sernet.de/pub/samba4WINS/samba4wins-1.0.0-16/ thx for helping me! -- Michael

hi list, i'm using samba v3.0.14a when working with "admin users =" "inherit owner" does not work for me anymore the owner is set to "root" any ideas? will "inherit owner" solve this problem? thx in advance -- Michael Gasch Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology Department of Human Evolution Deutscher Platz 6 D-04103 Leipzig Germany

hi, weird thing: i thought when commenting out "delete user script" and "ldap delete dn" nobody is able to delete users from the domain. what happens: users are deleted, to be more specific their samba attributes are deleted but not their posix values. i won't let our admins delete users from our domain becaus we have another management to add/delete users to/from a

after booting a CentOS 4.2 system I have a bunch of zombies... root 2828 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 14:41 0:00 [chvt] <defunct> My read from googling this is chvt stems from something that involves a shell. They ***may*** have been created from my attempts to start mysqld which isn't working (I will start another thread) but no efforts to kill them off are working...

hi list, just for my knowledge -> we have a working PDC / BDC infrastructure for our domain DOMA, where PDC trusts another PDC from DOMB (all samba v3). when PDC from DOMA goes down, is the trust still valid or do we have to setup the trust on *both* DCs from DOMA (net rpc trustdom establish DOMB ... )? is that possible at all? thx&greez -- Michael Gasch Max Planck Institute for

hi folks, i hope you can help me!!! i'm using samba v3.0.14a (sernet) on debian sarge. openldap v2 is my backend, smbldap-tools 0.8.4 (patched for our organization). when adding a user via usrmgr.exe to an existing domain group i get the following error: [in usrgmr] The following error occured changing the properies of the user xxx User does not belong to this group [in smbd.logs]

hello I've been reading the thread (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=113286376900001&r=1&w=2) and I have the same limitation with WINS in a PDC/BDC. That's why I have the following (experimental) setup: PDC ==> wins support = yes, passdb backend: master ldap BDC ==> wins support = yes, passdb backend: slave ldap I configured some of my XP clients to use both WINS servers

hi, i was able to successfully run vfs_shadow on a samba share with win xp shadow copy client. but i think it?s currently not implemented that one could export [homes] with this vfs object, because AFAIK each @GMT-snap has to resist directly under the samba share. but [homes] is a virtual share representing different shares (depending on users). has anybody hints about using vfs_shadow with

hi, i have a question about winbind, idmap_rid and trusted domains. at sambaxp jerry said it's possible to have idmap_rid working with trusted domains. this is what we would like to have here. smbd -b doesn't show this compile option on 3.0.14a rpm (SuSE). may be this is normal, but how do i ensure that this option is in my binary w/ testing too much :) or how can i compile it

hi, i'm using machine 1 (SuSE 9.0 32Bit): rsync 2.6.2 (from SuSE RPM) machine 2 (SuSE 9.1 64Bit): rsync 2.6.2 (from SuSE RPM) my command looks like the following: /usr/bin/rsync -W --progress --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -e ssh --delete --force -av /data/ machine2:/data/machine1/ after rsyncing both machines, some files differ ! i verified these differences with "diff",

I confirm that Malte M?ller says. If you want to set multiple group acces, you must use ACL. the valid user parameter in smb.conf force the right of directory but the unix right is only for group user. ----------------------------------- St?phane PURNELLE stephane.purnelle@corman.be Service Informatique Corman S.A.

Hello fellows, Does anyone of you has found the hack to permit win xp home edition to join a domain controller. I found somewhere on the net a software that does this. But it cost 145 $ US, so like the upgrade... ( the only difference in that i will not give the money to Bill Gates) My problem is with the password modification. Every times someone does change his password, he has to go onto the
