Hello All, I am relatively new to UNIX and very new to Samba. I have a bunch of questions about what everything is and I haven't been able to glean the information from the faqs. I was also hoping someone would give me a 'cheat sheet' on what I need to do an in what order. So here goes: 1. What are do these terms mean and why are they beneficial to me: ( I kind of know WHAT

I've already posted about this to the samba list (19990201) then to samba-bugs (19990301); no response, so I retry here. I have character set = iso8859-1 client codepage = 850 With samba 1.9.18p8: smbstatus showed the filenames with localized characters ok (ie: libert?.txt); smbclient was ok. With samba 2.0.0 through 2.0.2: if I connect with smbclient to a Samba share I see those characters

caldera/2.0.x and rh60/2.2.9. I've already posted about this twice to the samba list (since february) then to samba-bugs (19990301); no response, so I retry.

I have a two-node home network: a Linux machine (RH 5.0, samba-1.9.17p4-3.rpm, also running bind as authoritative for my home domain) and Win 95 with Client for MS Net & File & Print sharing. Linux = calvin.home = 10.5.1.1. Win95 = hodge.home = 10.5.1.10. Calvin is the default gateway for the Win95 box, since I often connect via PPP to the Internet, and I've set up IP

Hi! I'm trying to use a printer connected to a Win95 box from Linux but when I try 'smbclient -L win95_machine' I get the following message: SMBnegprot failed. myname=TARKUS destname=WIN95 - ERRSRV - 1311 I'm using samba-1.9.18p5. The access in the other way (W95 to Linux shares) works without any problems. When I set the printer as shared in the W95 box it is possible to

We have recently upgraded to Samba 2.05a on HPUX 10.20 and 11.0 from version 1.9 & 2.0. Since this upgrade, we have experienced the following issues and problems: 1) Lost connections to samba drives from Win95 pcs. 2) Failure to authenticate mounted drives from NT machines. 3) Using smbstatus, getting "semaphores not started by root" errors 4) Several inexplicable error messages.

I often find with Samba v2.0.3 that files accessed via Win95 (OSR2) stay locked forever after exiting the application that used them. I've got an application called Visual SlickEdit (VSE), which is installed on a shared drive. The drive is an exported Samba share from my RedHat v5.2 (kernel v2.2.5) server. Both the Win32 and OS/2 versions of VSE are installed beneath the same subdirectory

This is a REAL problem on the way to world domination ;-) PROBLEM: since we moved a MS-Access MDB (16 Meg) to samba, it ist killing queries more than twice a day, loosing records, ... It seems the application has no chance to recognice locked records and inform the user. with smbstatus I get one locking entry for the first user accessing the database (like: DENY_NONE RDWR), the second is not

Hello, now I've set up a linux samba password server using Samba 1.9.18p4 on a linux 2.0.33. File and password serving works ok now, but I can't change my passwords with any Win95 utility. Samba always tells me "Wrong password" an d in the logs it says: "Disallowing access to user due to null password check_lanman:password: old password doesn't match" But I know

If anyone can shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it. I've got a user who connects a drive on her Win95 laptop to her home directory on a Red Hat 6.0 Linux box, and she now cannot see anything. The unix file permissions all appear fine, and explicitly sharing her home directory in smb.conf is the only way I've found to fix the problem. Oddly enough when I run smbstatus, I see

I've got a system setup where a Win95 client (written in Visual C++ 5.0) presents a user with a GUI that collects information about hardware that he/she would like to produce. This information is used to build a path to the directory that contains the files to load into one of the production machines. For example, through the use of menus and such the user indicates that they would like to run

Hi guys. I have a problem. Here is the smb.conf. # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too # many!) most of which are not shown in this example # # Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) # is a comment and is

I've jsut installed Samba-2.2.4, from source on a Solaris 2.6 box. I'm looking to upgrade from some 2.0.x versions I'm running. I've createed a password entry using smbpasswd -a and added my password. My password has 9 characters in it. Using smbclient on the Solaris box, I can access the share, but I can't from Win95 or Win2000 clients (encryption is on). If I try to access

To the Samba Developers :- Maybe you can allow for old+new methods of authentication in your newer releases :- <<psuedo-CODE>> // consider FIRST that the passwd passed is cleartext // then use old method... of NOT using smbpasswd for authentication. // I guess you would use that in the UNIX crypt system call & match with /etc/passwd // if that failed to authorize, DO
