I have installed samba for the first time and I try to start it in a windows 95 environement. I started nmbd and smbd with the config file listed at the end of this mail (I remove all comment for clarity) I expect to use samba with the SHARE protocol of Windows 95 (No WINS) The new server (sdmpcsv02) is recognised by the other pc's but the can list the exported files The smbclient -L

Hi. I followed the advises from yours but I still can't do tcp/ip from wfw when booting diskless. I was told to run the wsahdapp.exe file, but when I do it windows tells me : winsock api Instalation Error The DOS sockets TSR is not loaded and of course when I try to run netscape it tells me: Netscape was unable to create a network socket connection There may be insufficient system

I am trying to get two WFW PC's talking to via Linux/Samba server Interface. One PC continuously streams binary datafile onto its directory on the server while the other continuously reads it. Information on the size of this file (which can continuously increase up to 3MB) is continuously updated and is stored using a fixed width pointer in the file header. It appears that the second PC

Is there anyway to ascertain what shares a client actually has mounted at a given time? I've got a number of WFW boxes connecting shared drives on my SCO-OSE3 box using SAMBA 1.9.16p5 (upgrading to latest version RSN). I've got some shell scripts on the Unix box which use escape sequences sent to the client telnet to start programs on the client side. Some of these programs assume

Hello, I need to serve one fileshare to different users in different groups ( I do so ). I gave different users different groups and told samba to make new files owned by user:group, mod 775. But now some users have the need to write in the directory of another group. Is it possible to force user and group per directory and not per share, or is it possible to create links in the filestructure

Hi I use messages (net send...., smbclient -M ....) to let a server dial to my provider, or to let him fetch my mial. This worked until I switched to 1.9.18p3. My server is named FGP, my group FGP_GROUP. One of the nt-clients is named SAUSCHNELL - and one of the users on SAUSCHNELL is names fgp - like the server. Since I use 1.9.18p3 all the messages sent to FGP from a NT-computer are actually

My server is RH 5.2 and i use Samba 1.9.18p10 and the client use WFW 3.11 with tcp/ip protocols installed. The subnet and the IP Address is right but I still only telnet form WFW 3.11 to Linux...not the reverse. On Linux telnet is working. I've checked it through this cmdline "telnet localhost 23 or telnet 127.0.0.1" . And I also testparm smb.conf and nothing wrong happen. FYI I set

-------------- next part -------------- Hello everybody!!! First of all I must say that I'm not an English speaker, so this text may sound a little extrange. I apollogize..... Well, I'm having problems with the SMB printing system. I have spent a lot of time (nearly 15 hours and a houndred of configurations) in it but I could not use it as a printing server. System Configuration: One

I have two Windows 2003 Standard Edition Server with 2x 3,0 GHz P4 and 4 GB RAM. On each server rsync runs as cygwin daemon (rsync version 2.6.6; protocol version 29). The two servers are connected through a 2 MBit VPN link. When I sync a single large file or a whole directory, rsync only uses 50% of the available bandwidth. When I do the same between windows and linux server, rsync takes the

Every now and then one of my lusers sets up a machine which attempts to be a local master and/or a domain master for our workgroup. This sucks since we want our samba machine to *always* be the WINS master server. (we have os level set to 255 for this machine) but appearantly it still loses elections that come up from time to time. The only way I know when this happens is when people come to me

I have a class C address space divided into 3 subnets. I have a Samba server on each subnet and all 3 subnets are under the same Domain/Workgroup. My browsing works fine. But when the frame relay between the subnets goes down, the 2 subnets that don't have the WINS server local cant find their local Samba server. Do I need to have a WINS server on each subnet to keep this from happening? Is

Hi, When defining a queue for lpd using a SMB (Win95) printer, it uses a ".config" file that store a username and password for printing on the SMB server. Is there a way (as anybody tried and how to) to configure the lpd so the username and password used to print on the SMB server are the unix login and password of the user printing (password databases are synchronized), so the job on

Hi I've seen a couple of people post this problem, but I've never seen an answer, and now it's happenning to me. I run Solaris 2.5.1, and samba-1.9.17p1. Every so often a pc can look in the network neighborhood and the samba server just isn't there, though you can still map a network drive by using a UNC pathway: \\server\share so the share is still out there but the server

Hi We are using a Debian 1.3.1 server (two Ethernet-Cards) with 18 Clients. The Clients remote-boot from the server using mars_nwe(Novell-Server emulation). Under Windows (WfW 3.11) the Clients user the Microsoft 32-bit Tcp-Stack to access the samba-server( 1.9.18p7). The problem is that the clients can't see the samba-server in their browse-lists, nor can they access the server with net

:') I have a small block of addresses allocated by the ISP. In order to conserve those addresses, I have constructed a Linux box (2.0.33 SuSE 5.1) to do IP_masq. (Works wonderfully. SuSE is the best kept secret in the Linux community.) Problem is related to Samba. I MUST be able to relocate NT clients behind my Linux system. I have tried several different methods of configuration for

(Samba version 1.9.18p4) I want to set up my environment thusly: - 2 workgroups, each composed of multiple subnets. - Each workgroup has a DMB and a WINS server (Samba only - no NT) - The two workgroups should collate browse lists so that clients on either workgroup can browse and connect to hosts on the opposite workgroup. I've read the documentation in BROWSING.txt and it does not appear

Hello I am currenly trying to setup Citel Link with Asterisk. So far i don't have any luck in able to assign IP address to Citel Link channel but still thought not a bad idea and get some one's view about Citel channel bank. Please let me know your experience while setting up Citel and Asterisk. I will appreciate if you tell me the way to talk to Citel Link using Hyper Terminal. Thanks

After receiving no response to yesterday's message, I tried some more web scouring and more tinkering and dinking around with Samba...and I discovered what may be a major key to my problem... I have 3 PC's...2 are Windoze and 1 is Linux. Windoze machines are likely to understand how to share files across subnets using the same workgroup name...but is Samba as adept? I have a feeling
