Last friday we upgraded from 1.9.17p4 to version 1.9.18p3 on a HP-UX 9.04 machine. Now we get lots of entries in the log.smb file like: ERROR: del_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file /programs/samba/var/locks/share.1073807365.8199 to size 42 (Permission denied) ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file /programs/samba/var/locks/share.1073807365.8195 to size 42

I just downloaded samba-1.9.18p3.tar.gz and compiled it on a DEC 3000/300 running OSF/1 v3.0 (uname -mrsv gives: "OSF1 V3.0 347 alpha") using the built-in cc compiler. The compiler gives the following warning: Compiling nmbd_incomingdgrams.c /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/cfe: Warning: nmbd_incomingdgrams.c, line 452: Unknown character \ ignored ((DEBUGLEVEL>=(5))?(Debug1

Hello, I am running a samba 3.0.32 under fedora core 9. I only try to authenticate users against a ldap server. Of course this server knows the encrypted password as microsoft does. I entered the ldap password using smbpasswd to query into the ldap. After this, I just obtain a message like "you don't have rights to ...". What errors do I make ??? Any ideas will be appreciated

Hi everyone, We use samba 2.0.4 and are very glad of it. However, recently I had to add a backup facility on our network, so we plan to purchase Arcserve IT for NT, in order to backup our servers.

We are having a problem with Microsoft visual C++ compiling source code maintained on a samba server. Occasionaly the compiler reports that it cant open the file vc50.pch.

Using Samba 1.9.18p10 I have found a difference between Win95 and WinNT: opening 'Lotus Freelance' files from Win95 is really slow (about 17 kB/s only) vs fast (~hundreds of kB/s) from WinNT.

You get this kind of stuff by default with roaming profiles.( ie user.dat or ntuser.dat ) If you are referring to netscape 4 then just point the profile to the home directory (mapped to a consistent drive

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 >

Hello, I am having a little problem with executing logon scripts on Win95 clients, logging into Samba Netlogon service. When a user logges in, a MS-DOS prompt shows up and quicky disappears. Then I get "Please Wait While your logon script executes". It hangs at that point. A user has to hit cancel to start his win95 session. I have done the logon script in MS-DOS editor. I have the
