Ok.. Just for the record, I STAND CORRECTED! The problem does appear to be NT.. The thing that irritated me was that nobody was interested in giving any backup data! Everyone just wanted to blindly admit that it must be NT. Ok.. Enuf bitching.. On to the better stuff... Anyway, David Mansfield and I are trying to narrow down the machine configurations where this happens.. Currently, we've

I have been regularly crashing my NT boxen trying to back them up via an smbtar (smbclient). The crash is not complete - the network layer on NT goes away. You can still operate the console, but no net traffic. This is NT workstation and server 4.0 with sp3. The UNIX samba server is Solaris 2.5 with the latest samba version (1.9.18p8?) also with other samba versions. I tried updating the NT

Hi all, I use Samba (nmbd) for WINS serving round here. Any one know how to set up two WINS servers (on different machines for resilience) using Samba? Also, whislt I'm on the subject. Suppose I have a machine with multiple (physical) interfaces, each with a unique IP address. When it ('s nmbd) registers with teh WINS server does it register all its addresses? Moreover, when the

I have a system with many processes writing to a common data file using pwrite. These processes are each writing to existing blocks in the file, not changing the file size, and the file has no holes. When the processes get going, they seem to bottleneck at log_wait_common (according to ps alnx). That is, one process is uninterruptible in log_wait_common, the rest are uninterruptible in down.

Hi All, Using the virt-manager/libvirtd/qemu-kvm stack (centos 6), is it possible to leave a NIC "installed" but cause it to simulate that the network cable is unplugged? Preferably this could be "hot" plugged/unplugged but otherwise doing it cold. Guest os is also centos 6, in case it matters (shouldn't). Any pointers? Thanks, David Mansfield Cobite, INC.

I'm working on some infrastructure which allows a remote password reset (with expiry) of a spice console running on a remote libvirtd/qemu-kvm. I currently have GSSAPI over tcp working and can set the password - but I can also do everything else - the default policy is still in place, and once authenticated, anything goes. I'm setting the password using a command like this: virsh

Hi all, I want to move a filesystem off of my NT server over to my Network Appliance NFS server to then be shared via Samba. I assume the easiest way to accomplish this would be to use smbtar. Do I then use smbtar to extract the tar file I create with smbtar, or, can I use gnutar? Does it matter? Am I safer sticking with smbtar? I'm guessing that since smbtar is a wrapper around

Hello, I'm using Samba version 1.9.18p10. I am trying to backup a Win95 disk with smbtar, but it skips lots of files without any apparant reason. For example, I have a directory C:\Acrobat3, with various subdirectories. With smbclient I can see and browse them just fine: smb: \> cd Acrobat3 smb: \Acrobat3\> dir . D 0 Wed Aug 19

Hi. My friend has a problem that smbtar cannot recognize space character in specified filenames. He tried to execute following command line to back file "long file name" up: $ smbtar -s SERVER -p PASSWORD -x SHARE -u username -t /tmp/backup.tar \ "long file name" but smbtar tried to include three files as 'long', 'file' and 'name'. :-( Here is the

I am attempting to pipe the output of smbtar into gzip in a script. The problem that I have is that smbtar echo's out "Params count: 11" before sending the information out to gzip. This causes the tar file to have a "tar: directory checksum error" error. Is there any way I can get smbtar not to report the Params count? The following is the command I am using.

I have a situation where I frequently need to "add" and "remove" a NIC, but each time I "add" it, I need the same MAC address. I'm using virt-manager mostly, but would be willing to use "virsh" if necessary, although it doesn't seem to hotplug the same way (something else to figure out another day ;-). It doesn't appear in the domain XML

Hello All: I've gotten a passthrough filesystem to work (as in, to mount) in my vm (guest F20, host F20), but due to the fact that the qemu-kvm process runs as "qemu" user, I cannot access "my" files from the share. Both the guest and the host are running SSSD so the user/group mapping is identical. Other than putting 'user = "root"' it

Hello. I'm trying to use smbtar/smbclient (2.0.3) to copy an NTFS share on an NT Server, onto a Solaris 2.5 system. The NTFS partition is 10Gb. At the 2Gb mark, the tar stops. No errors, the file just stops. The process (smbtar) returns. Is this a problem with Solaris 2.5 ? I believe it is, and if I upgrade to 2.6, I can create larger tar files. However, does anyone know if

I install Samba 2.0.7 on my HP 715-80 running HPUX 10.20. The HP server and two PC's are connected on a local LAN.

The C: drive on calvin is named drive_c and set for share r/w. I can use tar from the cmd line on the unix 'puter to

Hi all, Situation: We use smbtar for backups, incrementals done using -N <last date file>, and this has worked well with samba 2.2.x After upgrading to 3.0b3, using the -N (newer) option to smbtar causes a bad interaction with smbclient. Eg,: # smbtar -s PC -x Share -u User -p Pwd -d / -t - -N last-backup -v gives (if you print out the eval at the end of smbtar script): eval
