similar to: Win98 and Samba

I have just setup a VPN connection three sites using IPCOP. Everything seems to be talking ok, apart from browsing the network neighborhood. There are no NT/Win2K/XP servers running on any of the sites, all sites are just running win98 pc's using tcp/ip. I have tried configuring all PC's to be on the same workgroup and setup sharing, but still each site can only see the pc's

I'm attempting to run the Bridge Base Online installer (ftp://www.bridgebase.com/bbo_setup.exe) under wine, but something isn't working. wine bbo_setup.exe produces no error output, and very briefly displays the splash screen before exiting with a successful status. winedbg bbo_setup.exe produces: fixme:console:SetConsoleCtrlHandler (0x405be730,1) - no error checking or testing yet

We installed Samba server on a Alphaserver 4000 and we are connecting with a Win NT client Our server name is "ALPHASERVER4000" our client name is "PC3" we arrived to test 10 and problem is still alive. We can see with the NT browser "ALPHASERVER4000" but if we double click on it a password is requested. We tried with Regedit with all this options. Run regedt32.exe

Server: Slakware Linux 2.0.30, GNU C 2.7.2.1 Samba 18p7 Server is not using PAM and is a ypclient. Client PC's are DOS 6.20 with MS Client 3.0 and Windows 95. I am having trouble changing passwords using the "net password \\<server>" command from either DOS or Win95 command prompt. Changing passwords worked fine using Samba 17p3. The compile switch -DALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD

We are a little stuck on this one; running /usr/sbin/smbd = version 2.05(a) from Red Hat 6.1, kernel 2.2.12-20, we can't log on to our Linux server from our W 98 boxes. We can telnet in just fine, but it won't show up in any network neighborhood on the PCs.... We're trying to get SAMBA to run on the Linux server so we can run seven W98 clients for a small law office. Nothing

You wrote: I have been disappointed that I can't use Linux+Samba as an alternative to a Win9x or NT server for our GP medical practice. The software we need runs in win9x. We crave stability. But Linux+Samba is just much slower as a file server. It's normally quite fast: are you running over a dial-up network, requiring you to adust MTU's for speed??? If not, try ``socket

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

Is it possible to declare the samba server as the WINS server for all machines (which can be done via DHCP), and then prime the running samba with an lmhosts generated via the DNS database? What would happen if a machine with a given IP tried to register itself with a different

Hello, I have a client that has a RedHat 8 box with samba 2.2.7 running as a basic file server. They have two win98 computers and 1 w2k pc. They have no problems accessing the files on the server from the win98 pc's but the win2k pc keeps dropping the connection... I would normally say... ok its some hardware problem with the win2k box... BUT if i copy files to and from shares on the win98

I recently reinstalled Linux on my fileserver (RedHat 7.2), which was running Samba (v 2.2.1a). Now, trying to reconfigure Samba back to its original state (silly me didn't keep a copy of the conf file) I've run into a problem. My win98 machines can't find the Samba server by name, but they can by number. By this I mean: On a Linux desktop, smbclient -L //marvin/ works as

I have a private IP network with one win98 PC and one Linux PC. The windows machine can only access shares if I map a network drive and type the path in explicitly. When I go to network neighborhood the Linux PC does not show up. Both machines are in the same workgroup, so it should be there. When I type the path directly into the address bar in network neighborhood the program stops

Hi everyone! I have a little problem here. First let explain my network topology I have a 192.168.0.0/24 network, with win98 workstations, a NT serving domain and another NT as a WINS server. 192.168.0.3 - NT / WINS 192.168.0.6 - NT / DOMAIN 192.168.0.1 - Internet gateway 192.168.0.2 - Wireless AP 200 that connects to a linux gw ==--==-=-=-==-= AIR :) -- --- == --==--=-- =-=- 192.168.0.4 -

Hi I'd like to know what does "flags ignored" mean. I'm confronted to this error (type err:fixme:ShellExeExecuteW32) when i try to launch Steinberg Wavleab via wine 20041019 (from scratch on debian 3.1 emulating installed win98) with kernel 2.6.9 I saw that software running under SuSE 9.1 (with latest wine's RPM package for this distrib). This is the only error i get.

Hi there, I have a somewhat wide experience with samba. I've succesfully installed it as a client as well as a PDC on Windows networks. The last time, however, there has been an issue with the win9x stations. I've setup the Samba server over Linux to act as a PDC for the domain. I use dhcp to assign the network configuration to the hosts, and the only protocol installed on them is

Hi, Within Dovecot is there a way of spotting a change to a folder and running a post-processing script on the email that was moved ? I'm specifically after a way of seeing either an email entering or leaving a folder - preferably running a different post-process script depending on the direction. Essentially if an email enters or is moved out of a 'spam' folder I'd like to mark

could someone please give me the lowdown on samba and passwords? i keep trying to connect to any share name on either of my unix boxes, either from each other or from a win95 machine... every time i can't get anything due to passwords... does samba have it's own password file? from trial-and-error it seems that it doesn't read out your /etc/passwd file for user's home dirs...

Hello, Here's a repost on my message of a few days ago, for reasons that I'm not sure if it went through. If it did, my apologies, all suggestions welcome. I'm having an identical problem on slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and windows 98-2, with sp1, and samba 2.05 and 2.06, depending on which system I've got up. Whenever I restart samba for whatever reason, making a

Hi all, I've recently setup samba 2.2.5 on a solaris 8 workstation and configured it to be a member of an NT domain. Everything is working correctly, with the exception that the samba server does not appear in the network neighborhood of the rest of the PC's in the domain. However, if you choose to "search for computers" and enter the netbios name of the server it is
