Thank you for the information that you have passed on to me. My own research has found that ftruncate is quite happy to set a file to the same size that it is already, so something else must be causing the problem. The comment before the ftruncate in set_share_mode says the file is being truncated just for safety, so normally it is probably not necessary to truncate the file. Regards, Tim >

Hi all I'm using Samba version 3.0623 on my rhel3 with kernel 2.4.21 I mounted a windows partition with the command "smbmount". Now I have the problem, that I cannot copying files which are larger than 2GB. The cp command starts and everything works fine until the 2GB are reached. Then the bash gives me the error: "The maximum file size is exceeded" the

Hello, I have a problem, I'm mounting a ntfs directory shared with w2k.

Although the bug in Samba 1.9.17p1 which caused "ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file" messages in log.smb has been fixed in 1.9.17p2, empty share* files are not being deleted from the lock file directory.

While using smbmounted shares I get the following errors in my syslog: ---<snip>-- Nov 27 18:27:45 cayman kernel: smb_request: result -104, setting invalid Nov 27 18:27:46 cayman kernel: smb_retry: successful, new pid=529, generation=2 --</snip>-- Is this something I should worry about?

I'm running smbfs on a Debian box with kernel 2.4.24. I would give you more information (such as my samba tools versions) if I could get into the box, but it's hung right now due to this bug. I'm mounting a filesystem from my desktop Windows box (which is right next to it; there's a D-Link in the way, though) and passing large amounts of data to it (backups). If the connection

Dudes and/or Dudettes: HEEELLLPPP! (such a newbie statement) I can't get my remote SMB mounts to work on my Linux box. duke was happily running Slackware Linux 2.0.36 and Samba 1.9.18p8 . I upgraded to Linux 2.2.0pre9 (2.2.0final), which seemed to require upgrading to Samba 2.0.0 . (I don't remember the exact errors) Now i can't get my NT and '95 disks to stay mounted on

Hello ! I have a Samba server (version 2.2.7-security rollup fix) on a Redhat 8.0 which work as a PDC and file server with some shares where the people work everyday on word and excel files opened by their client. The client are mostly Win98. Some of this client has Office97 and some other Office2000. Normally this people work on several documents on the server opened remotely, sometimes also 20

I use smbmount to mount a number of NT shares from around a global network in order to sync from a master distribution which resides in linux. Specifically... uklnxsrv$ smbmount //NTSRV/share -c 'mount /tmp/temporary_mount -u 502 -g 510' -U guest%guest_passwd Frequently it works well, but from time to time the mounted NT share, for lack of a better word gets corrupted. Here are the

Hello. I hope that this is the proper place to ask this. Here is my problem. I have several smbmounts under Red Hat Linux 5.1. They need to be accessed by my apache web server. One of the mounts keeps getting disconnected, but this is not noticed by Linux. So the Linux box thinks that the files under the smbmount are still accessable when they aren't actually mounted. What would be the best

Does anyone know of a way to specify what extension is dialed when 0 is pressed in the voicemail system. I have a situation where there is more than one secretary and they want the 0 to redirect to the appropriate secretary for the two groups of people. So an example would be: 555-1234 -> voicemail -> Secretary 1 555-1235 -> voicemail -> Secretary 2 Any help would be greatly

A friend of mine is running Samba (samba-2.0.3-8) on a couple RedHat Linux 6.0 machines. He is sharing files bilaterally at work with a WinNT machine and at home with a Win9x machine. In both places, he is getting a large number of SMB error messages. I'm not sure whether these are from the smbfs (smbmount) or from the Windoze machines accessing the Linux drives, though I suspect the

Dear all, How may I configure my extensions.conf so that only the boss's secretary can call the boss through his extension, all others when dial his extension only makes the boss's secretary phone ring, not his.

Hello, we are running a Asterisk (1.2) installation with about 80 snom phones (300,320,360). Now have the demand for a special manager - assistant setup for a few extensions. Since Shared Line Appearance is not available in 1.2 I?m wondering how to realize this... What we need is that the manager can decide whether he wants to get calls or not. If not he must have the possibility to redirect
