I hope that someone can help me with this because I'm at a loss. I have a Samba server running RH 5.2 w/all errata plus Samba 2.03 that is used, among other things, to serve a share for a Windows program called "Business Works" which is a network accounting package. This program uses the standard Windows range-locking to implement it's network capability. I have been using this

Hello everyone, One of my clients is experiencing *very* slow printing and in certain circumstances interrupted printing from a Windows 95 OSR2 workstation to a Samba 1.9.18p10 server. The workstation is setup with server-stored profiles, desktop, etc. The user is trying to print large, graphics & color intensive Powerpoint presentation. It takes 10-20 minutes to spool about half the file

To any one who is using Red Hat Linux 6.0 (or, presumably, any glibc2.1 system) I recently installed a new RH 6.0 system on Intel. After installing my samba and my network application I noticed that I was experiencing oplock problems that were not present with the same version of Samba on my RH 5.2 systems and caused my application to not function. Since the problem seems to be with oplocks I

Howdy all: Thanks to Jerry Carter for correcting some of my earlier babbling. And thanks to Stephen Langasek <vorlon@netexpress.net> and "Sean E.

hallo! I'm trying to place a file coming from a samba share into my local briefcase on my win98/ME machines. it works with the same share on my winNT box. when I move the file from the mounted volume to the briefcase I don't get any error messages, but the file doesn't show up in the briefcase?! my setup: local PC with winME, briefcase on desktop, samba (userlevel-)share mounted as

Hi, I have a Samba 2.2.3a-6 server running on top of Debian Woody. There are two things I still have problems with. Number one is case mangling. I have set "mangle case = Yes" in [global] and left all other options related to case at their default and it works to some extent. But for example I cannot rename "whatever.txt" to "WhatEver.txt". The way it works is

Is there a way to successfully create a working Briefcase on Samba shares? When I create one in a Samba share, it has a regular folder icon with a desktop.ini file in it. Openning it reveals a plain folder rather than the usual Briefcase applet. When I create one on a Windows NT network share it works fine, but all our big filesystems are unix-based Samba shares rather than NT shares. -Ernie

Hi all, I've just realised Samba doesn't appear to support M$ Briefcases, which is a bit of a shame as I've just designed an Access Database system that needs to replicate between Servers on five sites, and we've just converted the client's NT Servers to Linux Samba Servers.... (now, finally, things work properly!!) So, presuming there is a God up there somewhere.... can

Hi, i have a minor Problen with Samba 1.9.16p11 under RedHat 4.2 and samba 1.9.18 under RedHat 5.0. Getting the shares from NT or w95 are ok but in the messages log file i got tons of these messages: Feb 2 06:49:54 bell PAM_pwdb[3520]: get passwd; pwdb: structure is no longer valid Feb 2 06:49:59 bell last message repeated 93 times Feb 2 06:49:59 bell PAM_pwdb[3520]: 1 authentication

I want to thank whoever mentioned KerbNet by Cygnus Solutions! Wowza! I recommend that people check it out. It lets you implement Kerberos under UNIX and NT, and have them work together (so you have one *unified* security system that is used by both your NT and UNIX boxes). It's at http://www.cygnus.com/product/kerbnet-index.html It also does authentication *without* sending passwords over

Hello, does anyone has some Information about M$ Exchanges Fax. If you configure Exchange there is an Option about Fax. If you go there, you can say you have the Modem on your PC or you can say it is in the Network and you have to put in the Networkpath. It would be great to use this with Samba but at this time I think Samba doesnt support it. Maybe someone has some Information for me how I

I've just installed version 1.9.18p8 on SPARC Solaris 2.5. I can connect with no problem from by NT box (map network drive), but when I try using smbclient '\\\\machine\\share' from the machine I installed on, I get: SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.) Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password? Some servers insist

I was running through the cvs.log and I noticed that there was a bunch of stuff on LDAP authentication. I haven't seen anything on the official releases about this yet, and I was wondering when/if it was coming, or if it was already there and just undocumented. Anybody? -- ================================ Jay Christner Information Technology Services Goshen College

We have a 8GB scsi disk on a samba server. If we look in the explorer on our NT clients, we see only 4GB disk space with 0 bytes used (seems to be a 32 Bit limit ?!). Is this a problem of samba or of the NT client ? Any solution available ? Thanks K.Konzept

Hello everybody, We are using Samba 2.02 on Sun Solaris 2.51 and 2.6 platforms. Using these as a file server we occasionally have the following problem: - the file is changed on the file server using standard UNIX tools while somebody else is editing it - the other user re-loads the file using a Windows 95 client - the content of the file seems to be the same as before the change on the windows

( I thought I sent this message out before, but never saw it in the digests ) Configuration : Windows NT 4.0 clients printing to Samba 1.9.18p8 running on Solaris 2.6/2.51 machines. The Samba servers are setup like this : ... security = server password server = %m encrypt passwords = yes networkstation user login = no ... So the server uses the
