Hi ! I've just finished setting up a samba 2.2.6pre2 installation on a SGI running IRIX 6.5.16.

Hi! This is a really weird problem, I hope, someone can help me out there. First of all, I put my smb.conf on the web, you can find it here[0]. The Sambaserver (ESS-LINUX) is just an ordinary workstation (in the terms of SMB) and uses the PDC (ESS_SERVER) for authentication (see "password server"-directive). Nearly everything works fine. Each authenticated user gets his home-directory

Hi, this is a new user who is trying to reach the local network, managed by a windows NT server. I have edited my smb.conf file (which I include) so to be able to reach the network drives and the printers on the ntserver locally. When I try to see what is available using smbclient at the prompt, I cannot see which are the Services available (sharename fields empty), but I do see a lot of things

A PC running Windows 95 has a share mounted from a Samba 2.0.7 server running under Mac OS X Server. An attempt is being made to copy a file on the PC called suse.iso to a subdirectory of the share (faberlab) on the Samba server. The PC hangs a bit and eventually complains that it can't create the file. Here is the debug log starting from the moment the copy has begun... [2000/06/02

Hello, we have a Linux box running Samba 2.2.7a and several clients running Windows NT 4 WS (last service pack) and Windows 95 (last service pack too). All clients are running a program made in ACU-Cobol for Windows and sometimes the NT machines abort the execution reporting a cobol blocking error. This usually results in broken indexes... We have traced the execution and haven't found the

Hello, I have problems setting up a canon multifunction ir7200. When I print the windows test page, I have something like "smiley" "arrow" "arow" "smiley" "arrow" name_of_the_samba_spool "smileys" driver.dll etc,etc,etc, on a single line. Did somebody used such a multifunction with Samba ? Below is a (long) description of what I did. I

Could anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong here? I'm using samba-1.9.18p8 on a Linux 2.0.32 box, RedHat 5.0 install.

Hi Jerry et al, will the 2.2.6 release show the printers in the 'add-new-printer-wizzard' on the client like the WINDOWS server do ? I'm not sure if you know what I mean, so here is a little illustration: ----------------------------- | NTSERVER | | \\ntserver\printer1 | | \\ntserver\printer2 | | \\ntserver\printer3 | | SAMBASERVER |

Hello, I try samba 3.0.2a with Mandrake 10 Official release. It works pretty well but one exception, "dotless i", a Turkish character. The other Turkish characters works. If any filename contains dotless i, this file/directory is inaccessible from win98 clients. I setup with Turkish locale. And i run samba with "export LC_ALL=C". Otherwise it runs, but doesn't share

Hello, I have tried to find that info, but couldn't yet find it in TOSHARG or "Samba-3 By Example" : A client has one NT-PDC running without WINS-service and a Samba-Domain-Member-Server that is currently the WINS-Server.

We are having a problem printing from a Sun machine to NT using Samba. The NT admins would like us to use an account other than the Guest account for printing so that they can disable the Guest account. The printer scripts have been changed to add the -U UNIXPRT option, but no matter what syntax we try to use, the -U option is ignored and the connection is made via the Guest account. I have

I'm having a problem with files locking so that every time the are opened up they are opened as Read-Only. Windows doesn't see them as readonly but Samba thinks that they are write=no and so they can't be saved or deleted.

Hello, I have apache web server running on unix system. Then we have lots of users who only have accounts on our NT-domain. I'd like to do user&group authentications from our NT-domain using samba/SMBlib to do the actual authentication. Now does anyone know if there are already such systems available? What I'd like to do: 1) User connects to web page http://web/xyz. 2) He/she gets

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba
