Hi all, I've installed samba on a sun sparc-station with solaris 2.5. But when i'm doing something that's using the network really intense (like mp3-files playing over the network) the feed is not constant. With mp3 files you can that because you have pauses during the playing of the song. Is this a configuration mistake or something ? cu, Patrick

We're using Samba 1.9.18p10 on a Linux 2.0.35 box as a fileserver chiefly for software development under VC++. Builds are done from the command line, not the IDE. I'm seeing rather slow build performance under NT4SP3. Build performance is fine under Win95. Build performance is also good when building from Samba 1.9.18p8 running on a Sun UltraSparc. To give some concrete figures, building

We have been looking for a way to notify our users when they are running low on disk quota, without sending them mail. WinPopup actually seemed like the best way, so my partner began looking at feeding quota output into smbclient -M when quota was getting tight. The only problem is that smbclient -M frequently fails to find the client's host name. The -I parameter will often fix it, but I am

Running -STABLE from May 15th, if I do an 'ls /usr', it works ... if I do an 'ls /vm', it hangs .. the machine doesn't hang, as far as I can tell, all the web sites are accessible, and there are no errors in /var/log/messages .. I have soft-updates disabled on that file system, and iostat is showing the drive array to be quite idle: tty da0 pass0

Is there anyway to specify a range of IP addresses such as 128.1.10.11 to 128.1.10.29 in this parameter ? I cannot find the man page for hosts_access(5) as mentioned in the smb.conf documentation. Thanks Robert

I have a class C address space divided into 3 subnets. I have a Samba server on each subnet and all 3 subnets are under the same Domain/Workgroup. My browsing works fine. But when the frame relay between the subnets goes down, the 2 subnets that don't have the WINS server local cant find their local Samba server. Do I need to have a WINS server on each subnet to keep this from happening? Is

Hi, I have a question on tftpd on Slackware - I know this is an embedded Linux forum, but I think it still must be the appropriate place to ask. I have hpa-tftpd V0.40 on Slackware 9.1. No matter what I do, I can't get files transferred to the tftp server. I just get timeouts - no messages in /var/log/messages or in /var/log/syslog - just dealthly silence. This is the configuration line

You wrote: I have been disappointed that I can't use Linux+Samba as an alternative to a Win9x or NT server for our GP medical practice. The software we need runs in win9x. We crave stability. But Linux+Samba is just much slower as a file server. It's normally quite fast: are you running over a dial-up network, requiring you to adust MTU's for speed??? If not, try ``socket

Hi. I'm setting up samba on our webserver here, and are experiencing problems connecting to the shares on the computer. When I run this command: smbclient //194.234.215.20/gjestebok top_secret_password trond -W OSLONETT-KONTOR I get this error: added interface ip=194.234.215.20 bcast=194.234.215.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Domain=[OSLONETT-KONTOR] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.6] tree connect

Hi, I installed FreeBSD/amd64 9.1-RELEASE yesterday. I chose to do a manual installation due to the use of ZFS. I checked out stable/9 and recompiled both world and GENERIC kernel. Said kernel and world was installed without any problems. System is still up & running, with uname -a revealing r243825. I then decided to upgrade the root pool to feature flags, SPA version 5000, and was not so

Is there any support for file locking in a case where multiple Samba servers are set up with shares for the same NFS mounted filesystem? I don't know how the STATUS..LCK file is used, but for instance, could that file be shared between the multiple Samba servers via and NFS mount? Thanks! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay D. Anderson

Ok, starting to make sense now. In order to fix it.... I note that the lower level calls are wrapped in dir.c - eg dptr_SeekDir(...) wraps SeekDir(...) this might allow for some code to use array indexes instead of NFS cookies as noted by Chris Chilvers here for the 3.10 kernel: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAAmbk-e-YQAPo6QyNB0aJyc9qzUShmEC+x5eTR7wqp1ABWADsg at mail.gmail.com/T/ > On the

Hi all, I am using a samba WINS server for my Microsoft network that is split across 5 physical networks. For a long time, everything has worked fine, however recently we have had wierd problems with domain controllers "disappearing". Even with a primary or backup DC on the physical wire, workstations and other NT servers suddenly start complaining "a domain controller for DOMAIN

It would appear that Samba <-> Samba across subnets works fine, but Samba <-> NT is a problem. Does anybody else concur with this statement? Specifically, running Samba 1.9.18p10 (Solaris) and directing all password authenication to an NT server on a subnet causes the following output in the log file: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is there a posibilty to change all Unix file permissions from the NT-Explorer (not only arciv,hidden,sysem mappig). A solution could bee to extend the context menu with to entries show security and set secutriy (inf - files could do that for example winzip-installation does the sama). This extensions can call for example a rsh programm which will do that job. Does anybody has a solution or ideas

Alternately, we could possibly modify the dptr_TellDir function to set a flag somewhere if it ever returns a negative offset. Then any calls to dptr_SeekDir checks if the flag is set and does a slower approach of a RewindDir and then multiple ReadDir & TellDir calls until we get the matching offset. If flag is not set then go with the normal SeekDir call??? On Fri, 17 Feb 2023 at 00:40,
