TWIMC, I have a situation in which I can access my samba servers with win95 machines but not win98 PCs. When I double click on the server using the browse list under win98, it prompts me for a password to access //SERVER_NAME/IPC$ but denies me access after entering the password. I get accepted with no problem at this prompt with win95. I compiled with the defaults and shared the

Hi all, I'm running Samba 1.9.18p7 and I'm having a problem where I can't execute a file on the samba drive, but if I copy it to a local drive, it works. The client is Windows NT Workstation 4.0 w/ service pack 3. The executable is named Netscape405.exe. The error I get in explorer is: Can not find F:\Netscape405.exe. Windows needs this to run F:\Netscape405.exe I find that if

Hi Amiga Samba users, I have an interesting problem using Samba (1.9.16) on the Amiga. Everthing works fine for PC reads from the Amiga to the PC or dag-and-dropped onto Unix shares (which also using Samba). However, in the other direction (i.e. at PC GUI drag a Unix file from Unix share and drop it onto an Amiga share) this copy results in a file that my httpd on the Amiga can't read (in the

Good afternoon, I've downloaded the newly released Samba package 2.0.0, and when trying to run "compile" (located in directory source of the package), after a moment, script fail with the following errors: >ERROR: No locking available.

The browsing capability in Network Neighborhood disppears periodically. Usually, double-clicking on Network Neighborhood gives us a list of all the NT and Unix/samba boxes on the network segment (i.e. in the Workgroup). When browsing disppears, all we see is *Entire Network*, which has nothing in it. We run a unix/NT network with 6 unix servers and about 80 NT clients. We are running NT

Hi there: > ps: my little suggestion: if we add some parameters at smb.conf like > protected dir = /home/share, /home/user1 ; > trashcan dir = /smbtrash ; It seems that implementation of such parameter has some difficulties and eventuates reduction on performance (e.g. handling "protected dir"s and "trash dir" on the different devices like /dev/hda1

Here are some thoughts about a possible enhancement to samba. Let me know what yuou think. Whenever I want to re-start samba, for example to upgrade it, there always seem to be people logged in with files open. It occured to me therefore that an auto-restart feature may be useful. To implement this though we need to know when it is safe to re-start samba: 1. When there are no locked

The default setting for Win95 are to do DNS before WINS. You can try to change this order to see if this fixes the problem. I clipped the following from the Technet article - Q139270. It would be easier to disable DNS on a Win95 client to see if the name resolution order is causing your problem; then do all this happy stuff... ------------------------------------ cut

Hello, In my network I have a Samba Server (Domain=DN) and 3 Windows 98 WorkGroups (Net0, Net1, Net2). And my problem is: I want to avoid same users to access the workgroup Net0 (Data and Applications), and others users to the Net1. The Net2 is public for all users. It's possible to do it with a Linux Samba Server? How can I do it? Tia, Sociedade Torreense de Inform?tica, Lda. Av.

samba does the SMB(!) authentication against machine "a" but you MUST have equal users on ALL machines. How else should samba create files on the unix file system if there is no UNIX user to deal with? It is not a problem of samba, it's a "problem" of unix. The only trick to do this would be to create a dummy unix user and do a "force user" to this dummy on every
