Hi! I am experiencing strange smbmount problems with my 3 computers. I have: janeway, an NT 4.0 SP5 box, torres, a Linux box running kernel 2.0.36 and samba 2.0.5a, q, a Linux box running kernel 2.0.36. Both Linux machines have smbfs compiled as a module and loaded. I can smbmount janeway shares on both torres and q, and I can see torres shares on janeway. Naturally, q can't be seen by

Hi! I have a new machine on a network: kemmer: New Linux box (kernel 2.0.36. Samba 1.9.18p10) torres: old Linux box (kernel 2.0.36. Samba 1.9.18p10) janeway: Windows NT 4.0 SP4. torres and janeway are performing flawlessly, I can access both machine's shares from the other one. kemmer is new and can't access DNS yet. Thus, I have to use the -I switch to smbclient and smbmount to access

Hi, I am new to Linux, I am using RedHat version 6.0 and Samba 2.0.5a. I try to set up a Samba Server for a LAN. So far everything (i.e. installation) worked fine, I installed samba from .rpm and nmbd, smbd is started at boot successfully. I can see the Samba server in the Windows95 network environment, but when I doubleclick on it or when I try to smbmount a service from another Linux machine I

My Linux box just bit the dust in a dramatic fashion (complete lockup, needed a cold reboot). Although I am not at all sure what the cause was, the last message in the system log mentioned samba, and there are some other funny looking samba-related messages in there. I'm not asking for a diagnostic, but if anyone has seen these before, maybe they can tell me what they mean: Last message

A friend of mine is running Samba (samba-2.0.3-8) on a couple RedHat Linux 6.0 machines. He is sharing files bilaterally at work with a WinNT machine and at home with a Win9x machine. In both places, he is getting a large number of SMB error messages. I'm not sure whether these are from the smbfs (smbmount) or from the Windoze machines accessing the Linux drives, though I suspect the

Hi! I am using smbfs to mount a NT 4.0 SP3 disk to a Linux 2.0.33 box (SuSE 5.1). This works most of the time. Sometimes, I get a syslog entry |Jun 26 23:03:10 palandt kernel: smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL on the smbmount command, which subsequently fails "illegal parameter". What am I doing wrong? I currently can't browse the digest archives because my

Hello. I hope that this is the proper place to ask this. Here is my problem. I have several smbmounts under Red Hat Linux 5.1. They need to be accessed by my apache web server. One of the mounts keeps getting disconnected, but this is not noticed by Linux. So the Linux box thinks that the files under the smbmount are still accessable when they aren't actually mounted. What would be the best

Can someone tell me where to find what error messages mean or enlighten me as to what smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL means ? Many thanks Ian

Hi, I have a small problem with Samba in Debian 2.1 (Slink), kernel 2.0.36 and samba 2.0.5. I have a NT Server and a Linux client. I want to get some files from NT Server to the Linux client. They are in the same network and the IP's are: NT Server - 222.222.222.2 Linux Client - 222.222.222.40 Reading samba docs I discover two small utilities:

Hi, Up until a couple weeks ago, I had a working connection between my Linux and Win2000 machines with Samba. But nowadays, whenever I type: smbmount //amiadmin/Scan32 /mnt/scan -o credentials=/root/creds where amiadmin is the Win2000 machine, I get the following error message: INFO: Debug class all level = 1 (pid 28704 from pid 28704) 28704: session setup failed: ERRSRV - 2242 SMB

Hi, I use samba on Linux 2.6 and 2G over size file sharing. It seems smbmount '-o lfs' need to use with large file. but default man page doesn't say this option. I want to edit smbmount.8.xml for lfs and unicode option. I believe using mount.cifs is right way on latest Linux. But one of the implementation smb_clients tools take this lazy option. Is it right way to change of man page

Hello, I tried to compile Samba-2.0.5b with smbmount after setting the configure-option "--with-smbmount". On systems (SuSE 5.0 and SuSE 5.3) running Linux kernel 2.0.35 and 2.0.37 I didn't have success: Compiling client/smbmount.c In file included from /usr/include/linux/smb_fs.h:11, from client/smbmount.c:28: /usr/include/linux/smb.h:47: warning: `PVAL'

I have cross-compiled smbmount(smbmnt, smbclient) using samba-3.0.24.tar.gz, then ported them to an ARM Arch machine whose /etc directory is read only. The smbmount command always results in errors """Can't get /etc/mtab~ lock filesmbmnt failed: 1""" Someone says that If we rebuild samba with the smbmount-nomtab.patch and smbmount-mtab-flags.patch, it would work

Hello, I have found a solution on an other news group : uk.comp.os.linux There is a set of messages with the subject "Ordinary user to mount SAMBA share" You can read the content of that uk.comp.os.linux group through the web, the URL is http://x35.deja.com In one of the message the author wrote "After, further test. I find smbmount, unlike mount, requires the user owns the

I use samba in a very limited application to mount smb shares using smbmount. I have a simple script I use that mounts several shares to a variety of mount points as a specific user on my system. The script passes username, password, share, mount point, domain information to each call to smbmount. This script worked perfectly under redhat 8.0 but since upgrading to redhat 9 I have had some
