Ok here is my problem : I have several computers and hundred users who use them. I configured a Linux Samba server so each user has his own profile (USER.DAT and such things) on server... for Windows 95 to take profile on server I had to use Policies, to have a registry key in : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProfileList for EACH USER , telling where to get profile.

Samba 1.9.17p1. The log file contains Ks of messages like this: ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file /usr/adm/locks/share.119542272.430101 to size 64 (Permission denied) ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file /usr/adm/locks/share.119542272.430101 to size 64 (Permission denied) ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file

OK. Maybe I was a little terse in the description. I have a CD we (Candle) created. It installs one of our products by executing the setup.exe program. I am able to execute the program off the CD with no problems. I then copied the contents of the CD to the Samba share. I try and execute the setup.exe file and get this error. If I then copy the files from the Samba share to /temp, I can

Hi all. I'm experiencing long connect delays due to password file locking errors. For each connection samba logs the following errors: do_pw_lock: failed to lock SMB passwd file. mod_smbpwd_entry: unable to lock file /usr/local/samba-1.9.18p10/private/smbpasswd In the archives I found some other messages reporting the problem (on May this year), but no solution. Did I

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

Hi. I have a samba install, samba-1.9.18p4, with security=server. Users are validated against the NT domain controller correctly, and user accounts do exist on the unix box (AIX 4.2.1) Problem is that while the uid of the files that users create is correct, the group id is always sys, even though the users have as primary gid STAFF. The definition of the share I am trying to create is: [cslan]

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

Hello, Documentation states that one should set up only one Samba server as WINS server. While NT's TCP/IP setup has two entrys, one for a primary and one for a secondary WINS server I wonder why there should be only one Samba WINS server. Has anyone tried this with two Samba WINS servers? Did you suffer from any interferences. I did and the machines are running perfectly smooth. Did I

this isn't strictly a samba question, but it is related in that i'm trying to a samba server as my domain master browser and multiple samba servers as local master browsers for a workgroup across multiple subnets. everything seems to be working wonderfully except for one WfWG host which does not show up in the browse list as expected. i notice that this host is announcing itself as a

Hi. I wanted to set diskless win95 but I read the list archives and I decided not to do it diskless. So I tried diskless windows but I got a problem. I do this. 1.- I did booting images with bootware proms. 2.- I managed to install DOS clients from microsoft. That was painfull because the one I downloaded from MS didn't connected to my samba server. I used a dos clients that creates a NT

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

Do the socket options still work with versions of samba above 1.9.16p10? I get error messages both on the command line and in the smb.log file that say: Unknown socket option IPTOS_LOWDELAY Unknown socket option TCP_NODELAY Here is my smb.conf Global parameter entry: socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY Do these have to be compiled into the Samba program? If these are outdated

Hi, I have set up samba to enable Domain-Logons for windows95/98. I am using Samba-1.9.18p7. I have a share netlogon with a batchfile for connection network drives. Everything is working. But when I create a policies file and put it onto the netlogon share windows doesn't use it. I have named it config.pol. Is there another special thing to configure? I have found archives of this

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

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 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
