Running Samba 2.0.6, on Sun SC1000 (4 CPUs) with Solaris 2.6 smbd processes don't seem to terminate although the connections don't show-up with netstat. The client session seems to terminate, and the connection is terminated, but the smbd process seems to hang around waiting. smb.conf specifies "deadtime=5", and in most cases there is no open file associated with the smbd

I'm not a perl guru, and this is off the top of my head, but did you try something like this: #!/bin/perl open(PIPE, "|smbpasswd") print PIPE "$oldpassword\n" print PIPE "$newpassword\n" print PIPE "$newpassword\n" close PIPE regards, Rob Coward >------------------------------ > >Date: Fri, 29 May 1998 15:54:42 -0500 >From:

Hi all. I am trying to let users change their passwords from the swap webpage. But in the password interface when a user wants to change his password I get the following error : "machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the session setup. Error was : Not listening for calling name." OS: Debian 3.0 Samba v: 2.2.3 I have no problems changing the smb passwords as root, but when I login as a regular

I'm in the process of trying to setup 3.0.25b on my server and am experiencing problems. First, anyone know what this error means and how to fix?

Hi all, I experienced the same problem with 3.0.4 that Jeremy and Bruno were discussing - NTBackup unable being to connect to shares and erroring out with 'Access Denied'. I have today upgraded to 3.0.5 (using the Debian Woody packages) and that didn't fix the problem. Was the fix in 3.0.5r1 only applicable to 2000/2003 server? I am stuck in the dark ages of NT 4 here, maybe that is a

Hi. First, i would like to thank samba developers for producing such a good product. Second, i have a few questions/remarks : I have recently replaced a w2k file server running in w2k domain (native mode) with samba 2.2.7a on RH 7.3 with the latest kernel, no acl, configured winbind, and ran into the problem described here :

I have a couple of problems with Samba that I would appreciate help with: 1. Since installing version 1.9.17p1, error messages such as "ERROR: set_share_mode: failed to ftruncate share mode file /var/smb/locks/share.9175085.1500224 to size 42 (Permission denied)" are appearing in log.smb. 2. When a directory on a UNIX machine contains a file named *, this file appears with the name ~16

This is not SAMBA directly related at present. Having trouble getting NT4.0 server to create domain from fresh install. Plan on using Linux/Samba box as backup controller -- any hints (will also do e-mail). TIA Dave

Hi, On a windows client if I attempt to modify the permissions on a file which resides on a linux server, when I hit "apply or ok" my changes are lost. Doing it from the unix cli (using setfacl) works as expected and the changes are not lost. Yet on windows if I right click - properties - Security. select add, add a user or group, hit Apply and the user/group I just added is

Hiya, as I was not capable of getting only close to join the RC1 of Samba 3.0 to my ADS realm, I downgraded to the Redhat 9.0 rpm version of Samba 3.0 Beta 3 from download.samba.org. With this package I get a lot closer to a "working solution". Anyway, Kerberos is not working as supposed during the "net ads join" process which should leave a bunch of Kerberos credentials in

I have Wine v1.0 and Linux Mint Elyssa with Adobe PS v7.01. PS loads up fine for a few seconds and then the docks all disapear. There are no layers,tools etc. How can I resolve this please? Everything else is fine just the docks are not there Many thanks Tony

Jerry, Everybody: 3.0.25c compiled from source on a mandriva 2005le server in my no (AD, LDAP, Kerbose) environment. A full day of production and nothing more that a whimper out of the system. So, at least in my case 3.0.25c looks good.

hello when I try to connect to a share from my windows xp client, it does not work. In linux via smbclient, there's no problem. see below for the error log version = 3.0.21a security = server (the problem only seems to occur on servers that rely on another samba server for authentication). any ideas? werner [2006/01/27 09:30:32, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(307)
