I've got a stupid startup problem with samba under RedHat 5.0. Whenever I restart the system (I moved the server yesterday, so it got a reboot) samba doesn't startup. Looking at the /etc/rc.d/rc3.d directory shows there there is no link from there to /etc/init.d/smb. I put such a link in at some point in the past (after the LAST reboot, as I remember), and it has now vanished. This is

That smbpasswd doesn't obey the smb passwd file option in the smb.conf file? I've got the pre-compiled binaries for RedHat, version 1.19.8p10 and I'm just shifting from security = share to security = user. I tried to move the password file from /etc to /etc/samba, so that it would be in a root-only directory (as recommended by encryption.txt) and I've just found out that smbpasswd,

I'm getting some odd behaviour from rsync - a lockup when doing local copies. I tried to search the list archives, but I only came up with a couple of hits from 2001 indicating folks thought this (or a similar issue) was fixed. Situation: (OS is RedHat 7.2, Rsync rpm 2.4.6-5 and 2.5.5-1 exhibit the same behaviour) rsync is copying on the same machine (local copy). The destination is NOT a

Hi, my homepage with the Windows-Samba-mgetty fax solution Respond has a new address: http://www.boerde.de/~horstf/ Bye HF

Hey Guys We've been using the respond program with SMB fax services and it's worked pretty good. But I have one need which is not addressed by this software, which I'm hoping maybe I can pay someone to hack into the windows code. I need Respond to send a cover letter prior to being sent out, independent of the program queueing the print job in windows. I was thinking I might be

Hello, I have Hylafax set up on a RedHat 7.3 server (which uses Samba 2.3b, IIRC). I am trying to get Respond[http://www.boerde.de/~horstf/], a Windows client program, to work with it. The way it works is that samba shares a postscript printer, which calls a perl script on the print command. The network is a Win 2k network, and I want samba to verify with the lan server (or have open access

The "printer drivers download" feature of SAMBA-2.2 is great. Thanks to the SAMBA team. I'm using SAMBA-2.2.0 and everything works fine except one command: $ ./rpcclient sdprint -U root -c 'enumprinters' Enter Password: rpc_api_pipe: cmd 26 on pipe 703e failed to return data. result was NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL $ I can't say that rpcclient log file is useful for me but

Hi Maybe this is a common stupid problem, but when I try to login to Samba server from Win311 (right after its start) Windows exits very quickly to DOS prompt without error messages. If I enter Windows without loginning to Samba server, and try to login then it hangs (mouse is still active) showing me its watch. I have a couple of Win311 hosts and this happends with all of them. What could it

Dear All, Has anyone come up with a decent faxfilter script that actually works when use Samba + Mgetty/Sendfax. I can print to Samba printers from Windows with no problems, and I can use the faxspool command to send postscript files as faxes from a Linux box. The only part I can't get to work is the vital link between the Samba printer and

Hello, i'm using the respond-program to send faxes from the win-clients. Now i'm looking for the web-page, were this program is shown, because i've some trouble to reinstall this after an bigger crash. Perhaps someone can give me the URL of this or alternative programs to do an recipicient query on the win-clients befor sending the fax. Thanks 4 help, Yours, Oliver Grube

Newbie question: I have successfully set up a samba server for file & print sharing. What I'm not sure about is how to set up a fax server. Has anyone tried to do this? What all do you have to do, or maybe you could just point me in the right direction. =========================================== Charles Lewis, Director of Administrative Computing Southwestern Adventist University,

Doesn't Samba log login failures? I'd like them logged, preferrably (at least to start with) with the tried id/password-pair. Do I have to get my hands dirty with the source or has someone done this before me? Thanks // Jonas

I was having a discussion with a MS person about the performance of NT. I got this reply: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- By the way, I looked into that claim that Linux could outperform NT server, and my source claimed that the test was done on different hardware (i.e. it was rigged) and that Linux still loses to NT on equivalent HW, although "it has gotten closer." Do you

In my high school computer lab I have Red HAt 5.0 with SAMBA being used as a file server. The kids are getting used to it. But recently I'm seeing something strange. A student with id "james" will log on Windows 95, go to network neighborhood and to the Linux computer and find there among other normal items two folders. The first will be his own folder with his id, but the second

is turned on. Can anybody kind to confirm with me? Our network is using a mix of Win2k server, Win2k Pro, Win98, Win95 and WinMe machines, where the Win2k server is the domain controller and terminal service applications server and the Samba is a member fileserver of the domain. All workstations logon and mount the samba file services. We'd like to check if the problem could be solved by

I'm having a problem getting W95 and WNT to correctly read file names on a samba server I set up. The server passed all of the diagnostics, and file names show up correctly in a dos window. However, under windows explorer, anything after a . doesn't show up in the name. This is only true for a . in the middle of the name, "hidden" files such as .fvwmrc show up. WE does

Is there a way to prevent browselists from machines other than those of my choosing to show up in the browselists/network neighbourhood? I don't want win95 clients that offer shares themselves to show up in the network neighbourhood. Michel. -- Michel van der Laan - michel@nijenrode.nl http://www.nijenrode.nl/~michel

Hello again, folks! There is one thing I neglected to mention on the Solaris->NT connection issue I posted earlier today, and which I believe is the source of the problem. Two days ago, I "inherited" a NT server which I now use as my workstation. I physically moved that NT server from one place to the other (i.e., unplugging all the cabling -- power, Ethernet, etc.) so that I can

Hi, Does anyone know if they changed the way that desktop files for apps work? It seams that inside your start script you can no longer change your scripts directory. Does it now call some form of restricted shell? Anyone know where you can track these changes?
