Since i use samba and read this mailing-list i will put tips sent here. In fact there are already some. If someone feels it inapropriate to put the contents of their email sent to this mailing-list just let me know. (the origin of each

Hi, Has anyone had this problem with Samba? I have been having trouble getting my Samba server to show up in my Network Neighborhood list. It is in the right workgroup, and when I do a search for computer, it is found. Yet, it never shows up in my NN list. Can someone give me some advice on how to make this work? Thanks, Ken

I have a long running problem with my configuration of Samba as a domain master browser. After nmbd comes up, all the machines on the network are viewable in the Network Neighborhood as they should be. But about half an hour later, Samba seems to lose track of several machines; they no longer appear in NN or /var/cache/samba/browse.dat. I recently upgraded to a packaged version 3.0.20b (for

Hi all, I'm using Samba 1.9.18p8 under Solaris 2.5.1. Within my smb.conf file I am using the 'netbios aliases' option to make my server appear as 4 different servers with an smb.conf.%L to load the specifics of each: netbios aliases = hardware software diagnostics homedirs include = /usr/local/samba/var/smb.conf.%L The problem I'm encountering is that the only comment I see

>From time to time someone will comment in this list that their Samba server has disappeared from the list of hosts in Network Neighborhood. Browsing the list archive has yet to turn up any good explanation of this phenomenon. I think I have a clue. This morning my server disappeared again. When I checked the process list on the server I noticed that nmbd had been swapped out to disk. The

Hi there, I set up my samba that it acts as a domain controller, when i start network neigborhood and click on the linux system and select netlogon ([NETLOGON] entry in smb.conf) i first had the problem with windows 98 that my password always was wrong. i fixed this with a registry setting (something with plaintext), now this part works. Now i configured my windows 98 for using a domain-server,

Hi, from time to time, in times like today where the whole world is grabbing SUSE-9.2 and/or debian-30r4, I really like to condemn those other anon rsync server admins (you know, the successors of the traditional unix ftp server admins). They usually have within their /etc/rsyncd.conf a line like timeout = <very low> because they are thinking "less" there is "better for

Hi, I have troubles understanding wins and network browsing functionnality. I have a samba server(pdc) on a different subnet than my clients. The server smb.conf has wins support = Yes, the client are configured to use the wins server. In the wins.dat, i can see all the computers. In the browse.dat i have only computers/servers that are in the same subnet. When i try to browse the network

As I know runnig of Nmbd at Acitve Directory mode is quite unofficial now (but possible) . I will not ask why it is not reccomded to run Nmbd within Samba4 started at AD mode. But if somebody can tell, you are wellcome. But when nmb code implementation is planned to AD part ? That is when nmb functionnality adding to Samba4 acting as AD is planned ? To bring possibiity to use full-forced

Hello SAMBA gurus, I have SAMBA installed on a Linux box behind a Linux firewall. Also running behind the same firewall on the same class C sub-net is a NT 4.0 box. After starting up SMBD/NMBD I could see the remote SAMBA system and the file and printer shares displayed as icons in the NT 4.0 Network Neighborhood Explorer file system. Right clicking and displaying the menu over the highlighted

I am trying to setup a simple Samba server using the instructions in the O'Reilly book "Using Samba" first edition on a Slackware 9.1 system which uses Samba 2.2.8a. The windows machine uses windows 98SE. The instructions under Server Configuration starting page 93 and Disk Share Configuration starting page 96 had me setup a very simple smb.conf which should then appear in Network

Hi, This is my first SAMBA 2.0.0.0 install under AIX 4.3.1. I can find the server in Win95 via menus START:Find:Computer. If I double click the Network Neighborhood icon the SAMBA AIX server is not showing. Should it work this way? Thanks, Allen

Hi all, I am pleased to announce that NSS port of NUT is finished. Port is fully functionnal (same functionnalities as openssl, and a not-activated-by-default client certificate validation function) and successfully tested by myself (external tests are pending, Frederic Bohe is planned for) with a test matrix which will be uploaded to the web site soon (by Arnaud), tested functionnality by

I've got a moderate network with several subnets, a number of domains and workgroups. I have a central WINS server, each domain has its own PDC. My problem is transient users. We have occasional users who plug a laptop into the network. Once they leave, they hang around in Network Neighborhood forever. Then I have users who curiously click on their icon in NN and their machine just

We're running Samba 2.2.2 over an NT network. Our clients use Win95 (for the time being) and I wondered how we config Samba so they can map the shares using network neighborhood. We can map fine through MS-DOS, but when I try, for example, to map E drive to \\nfssrv\ads share via network neighborhood (where we ARE able to see the shares), it says E: is already connected to . Do you want

Hello, sorry for this posting, I know you must have answered this hundreds of times, but I cannot get my samba servers to appear on the network neighborhood on the W95 client machines. Can anyone tell what?s missing from my smb.conf files? The problem should be the same on all of the samba servers, how do I have to configure samba to show up in the network neighborhood? Thanx in advance. --

I am using Samba-PDC-LDAP with samba-3.0.20b-1. On my file servers I am using samba-3.0.10-1.4. I'm not sure exactly what is happening but every couple of weeks the file servers disappear form network neighborhood. I checked browstat on my Windows system and it points to my PDC as the master browser and I checked the wins.dat file on my PDC and the systems were there. I did not check
