Funny thing happening with an NT Client: it sees all the files in a public Samba share, but when I make any change (like renaming a file or dropping files into it) the change doesn't show up in the window until I press F5 (Refresh). Is it some config in Samba whichs defaults to "lazy" behavior which I'm failing to see? Thanx 4All, Juan --

Please excuse me if this has been covered, but I just noticed something odd with samba 2 beta 1. If I use smbclient to connect to a passworded resource on a win machine (I've tried it with 98/95) and I just hit enter for the password, it lets me in. No questions asked. So, I pretty much have unlimited read access to stuff I should not be able to get to. Best Regards. If this is the wrong

I'm sure this is a FAQ, though I couldn't find it in any FAQ or the docs... How do I have Samba authenticate users via the local UNIX passwd file? -- Gregor Mosheh An NT server can be run by an idiot, and usually is. "If you can't make it good, make it LOOK good." - Bill Gates

I have samba installed on a web server (behind a firewall). It's working fine with all the WINS networking here (eg, password authentication from the NT servers, etc). I (we) want this web server - a linux redhat 5.x box currently running samba-1.9.18p8 - to have as few actual unix login accounts as possible. What I want/need to do is to allow LOTS of people in the faculty here

I always get the messages of this list in a digest format. This is bad to handle, esp. if you want to answer a question found in the digest. Does everyone else also get the list as a digest? Is there a way to switch to single messages? If not how do I easily answer messages which the subject correctly set? Or how do I automatically split the digest into the separate messages? For your

I would like connect two offices where one office have 4 PSTN Analog lines and another office without any PSTN. Both the offices will have two separate Asterisk server with TDM400P cards (4 ports FXS & FXO). My questions is that how to configure Asterisk to forward the PSTN calls directly to another Asterisk which has the TDM400P card without pressing the extension number. Diagram like

I'm toying with the idea of writing a Samba-oriented Win95/98/NT logon window. I know it's possible to replace Windows' logon mechanism with another. Novell's Client32 does this. I know there's also standards to make a network service available to Windows' change-password mechanism (so I can fire smbpasswd on the other side). That could be an alternative to establishing

I have an old dos app that doesn't run in the win95 shell very well. There are problems with the graphics. Is it possible to connect to a samba server from real dos? I assume the answer is no but I thought I would check. Verne Ball vball@socrates.berkeley.edu

Because, a bug in a sofware, I need to see (on a NT box) the name of files in upercase. The files are writen by a buggy UNIX process in lowercase. Any one have idea ? Didier JANNE Janne@securite.org

Hi! I recently installed the Samba 2.2.0apha2 package. Almost everything works fine except that the Win95 clients can't make user-level shares of their directory. On the windows box, in the Network Control Panel - Access Control tab I set the user-level access control, and confirmed the NT domain (Samba is the PDC). Everything looks fine till now. I open the MyComputer window, and try to add

Hi all, I have been troubled by this problem for a long time and really hope that someone may help by giving suggestions. I have setup Samba 2.0.3 on a Sun Solaris as a file server and I map drive to Samba by using DOS prompt command "net use". It work very well in the intranet of my office. However, when I dial up from a mobile PC with win98, I try again with the command "net

Hello All, I've downloaded and compiled Samba vs 2.0.6 on Digital Unix 4.0E. I'm using server authentication and pointing it to our NT PDC. I can browse the shares fine from NTs. On Win95 and Win98, I can attach to shares and see the first level directory, but nothing below that. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to look for? I've succesfully run all ten steps in the

We have a system that uses SAMBA on HPUX 10.20 systems as servers and primarily NT4 Clients. We do however, have a few 9x boxes. We are running with Encryption on the servers, so no modifications are made to the registries of either types of windows boxes. This is my problem: We were running fine on 2.0.3, but when I upgraded the binaries to 2.0.5a, the 9x boxes could no longer see any files

Hello, I am trying to get the mod_ntlm Apache module running. I have been playing with the code and find that I cannot distinguish between a IE browser running on win98 and one running on Windows 2000. My Apache server is running on red hat 7.1 x86. The code does the following to distinguish: if ((strcmp(ntlmssp->host,"")==0) &&

Hi, I would want Samba shares to be automatically mounted as logicals drives on win9x machines. For this i try to use KIXTART (http://www.kixtart.org), a logon script processor for Windows. The advantage is that a unique login script may be used for all the users. The shares need to be mounted accordingly to the unix groups the user belongs to. Fo example, if a user belongs to the IT and TOTO
