Can the "tar" function in SMBCLIENT be used to successfully backup and restore a remote WNT 4 sp3 system disk? I'm guessing no, because: 1. active registry files, so restored disk may not be bootable 2. loss of ACLs and other "extra" file properties in tar format Anybody tried it? This is for machines with SCSI adapters, so even if we have to replace the system disk

Ok, I'm stumped. I've got what appear to be 5 identical WNT workstation 4 sp3 machines. All have been configured to run off the primary domain controller (Samba 1.9.19). On one of these ONLY the domain logins generates a single popup window which says: Incorrect password or unknown username for \\machinename\C$ and presents them with a username/password dialog box. The users can

Arne, With regard to your log on script not working, that ususally means permissions issues. Does everybody have permissions for the full path for the log on script? Hope this helps.

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 are planning to replace a quite big domain running W2K with Samba ( at the very least, the DC ). Though i'd love to have the extra security capabilities of W2K ( Kerberos ) as a DC, Samba/NT4 as PDC/BDC with ldapsam will more than suffice for now. The show-stopper right now is this: we need to be able to assign "real" Full Control permissions: a user who has "Full

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

Here's a second set of diffs for sanity-checking smb.conf files. This one implements a basic set of checks on netbios names. No, it won't recognize someone using an ip address, but it will realize the dots don't belong: $ testparm Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf WARNING: netbios name "127.0.0.1" contained a dot, which is only legal in DNS domain
