Hi, i'm reading: samba-3.0.20a/docs/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/NetworkBrowsing.html#id2564441 ... The election process is /fought out, so to speak/ over every NetBIOS network interface. In the case of a Windows 9x/Me machine that has both TCP/IP and IPX installed and has NetBIOS enabled over both protocols, the election will be decided over both protocols. As often happens, if the Windows 9x/Me

When trying to browser users or groups on the server I see these messages in the log file.

Hello, At one time I installed an alpha of samba-3.0 and it had a smbgroupedit command that mapped unix and windows groups via webmin. This seems to be missing in beta3, has it been depreciated? Also I can't seem to get the group map to take effect unless the unix group is the users primary group. Either that or I don't understand something. I do not have winbindd running or any idmap

Hi, I have actual installation Debian Sarge (testing) with Samba 3.0.2a. There is Windows XP SP1 on workstations. I use Novell client 4.83 SP2 or 4.9 SP1 for Novell Netware connections. I try to run Samba as PDC. Everything is fine without Novell client. After Novell Client installation, I could not logon to samba domain. Client gives me message "Domain controller could not be found for

When you say, there is not network neighbourhood in samba 4 you mean that: 1: all the workstations show in the network neighbourhood except the domain controller. 2: There is absolutly nothing in the network neighbourhod, no workstations nor DC.

Hi all, I can see the RH7.3 linux box I've configured with the latest Redhat RPM samba package in the Windows 2000 network neighbourhood, but when I double click the W2000 computer icon I get the message "\\Linuxbox is not accessible, The network path was not found." The network is a small switched lan, sadly with only one unix box (RH7.3) and a mixture of Windows2000 and 98

Hi , I've some torubles with smb server provided with Debian 3.0 Woody - I can't see any machine in network neighbourhood, altought all machines are loging and mapping resources shared by server correctly. What exactly is needed to be installed with smb - any DNS or something like this? Maybe the question is not too clever, but when I've had my server on RH7.2 there was no such

Hi, I'm trying to set up browsing across subnets to provide an 'enterprise'-wide (sorry for the MS term ;-) browse list / Network Neighbourhood. I've read BROWSING.TXT, but I can't see how machines on different subnets in different domains/workgroups sync up (using Samba, anyway). On my local subnet, I've set up a clunky old Linux 386 (Samba 1.9.18p8) as the browse

I have samba 2.0.5 run on my RH6.1 In windoz,when I use "find computer",I can find it without any difficulty! Also I can access it using this method! But I can't see it in network neighbourhood! I've tried "net view /workgroup=MY_LINUXBOX_DOMAIN",still can't see. Why?(In my linuxbox,the dns resolve doesn't work.does that matter?) The following is my global

Hi, I setup samba according to the Howto and I'm not sure but I can't find my samba box in netowrk neighbourhood. If I run \\(samba IP address) I get it fine. It just doesn't show up in the nethood. Any ideas? BTW, I'm using win95 and linux RH6.1 ====================================== Dave Comeau -- Network Administrator Save the Rainforests, Eat vegetarians

Is it possible to have 2000 windows machines reconize Domain Users under the local Power Users group? Right now I'm using samba 3beta3. Do I need kerberos support compiled in? Thanks for your help Jason

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is the string that appears in browser lists restricted to being a single string without spaces, or can you include spaces ? I have samba v1.9.15p8 running on a SGI O2 system, and I'm accessing its filesystems from a W95 PC. I started off with the following line in my /etc/init.d/samba script NMBD_OPTS="-C11th Floor SGI O2" which results in

I have a Samba Server 3.0.23a running on a Fedora 4. Since Vista entered my lan I've been having problems with master browser elections. When a Vista client connects to my workgroup it kills the network neighbourhood and the only machines seen is the vista client and my fileserver. By changing the regedit entries on the client side following this advice: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM

Hi, I am a system administrator but new to Samba. We bought new PCs with NT service pack 4 and I am trying to configure Samba(2.0.x) so that users can access their UNIX(Solaris/IRIX) files from NT. I have two kinds of problems. Things seems to be perfect when I try this with Win98 but with NT, I can't see the UNIX server from Network Neighbourhood. But "net view" shows all the

Hi.. I am finally making some progress with Samba. Its been a while but finally I see the light. I have a question. First of all, here is where I am at. I can use smbclient and access all the shares on my Windows machine. And I can map all the drives that are shared on my linux machine. In other words everything is working between my two machines. Now, here is the problem. In 'network

Hi everyone, I am new to the list and new to Linux as well as to Samba. I've read quite a few howtos, man-pages and other docs on samba now. I configured my own SMB-server with smbd and nmbd. Of course I generated a smb.conf file and my server is accessible and running on the Linux mashine. I can connect with smbclient to the Linux-mashine and to the win2k-mashine (hostname and service

Hi all, we are running 2 Novell PNW servers (1 printserver and 1 fileserver) and 6 Win 3.11 Clients since about 4 years with very little problems. But now our production software cries for a 32bit OS. (Guess which one) I tried to setup up something similiar with WIN98 and Samba 2.0.3. It works! I can connect to my shares on both linux machines, ping them, print and copy files, do my admin

Hi! I got a Printer in network Neigbourhood [Printer Symbol]|| and I don't know how to fix. My Printer "Drucker" is shown also. How to solve this?

Hello I attached my smb.conf as a reference but the problem is quite simple: 1) my server didn't show in the network neighbourhood 2) often the whole domain didn't show at all in the n.b. and if I try to access it directly (i.e. typing the domain name) I got a strange error ("cannot find the network path") P.S. Every single machine (server included) is viewable if

Hi list! I've got a debian "etch" box running samba 3.0.24. The server is a firewall (running Shorewall 3.2.6) with five NICs: eth0 -> DSL (it has a public IP address and it allows all the people browse by masquerading other interfaces) eth1 and eth3 -> bond0 (IP address is 192.168.1.1/24) eth2 and eth4 -> bond1 (IP address is 192.168.2.1/24) BTW, bond+ refers to an
