Hi, I'm trying to have a program automate getting a browse list via smbclient -L. I am having a problem with the way it handles passwords. For example, if I run: smbclient -L SERVER Then it prompts for a password. I can just press enter and it will show the shares and browse list. However, if I then try, smbclient -N -L SERVER it gives me access denied. Is there a difference between

Hi I am trying to create a boot diskette(s) that is able to mount a remote drive (on an NT server) using smbfs. I have tried doing this, but I can't fit smbd, nmbd, smbmount and smbumount all onto my root disk. What is the minimum set of files required for smbfs to work? What docs should I read to help me? I am running RedHat 6.2 (with a custom kernel v 2.2.14, ntfs and network card

Hi all, I installed the samba 3.0.3 on a Fedora Core 2 and then samba 3.0.6-1 and still have the following problem. When I mount a smbfs, it sucesses but processes hang when they access the mount point and smbumount returns "Device busy". Since even system halt fails unmounting the filesystem, I have to switch off the machine. I tested either with smbmount command, or /etc/fstab

Hi, I am deploying samba for an embedded system. The requirement is that the system should be able to mount windows share points. I believe "smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt" components are needed to do the same. I am not very clear about smbmnt though! I find that smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt are all quite huge. Around 300 to 400Kb each. I understand that Samba is capable of doing

I'm using rehat9, kernel2.4.20-18.9, samba2.2.7a-7.9.0. I have smbumount hangs most of the time. Any idea?

Hi All: When I use samfs, sometimes I got the following messages, Mr. Google says this is because the windows client use the share, and the connection is "reconnected"! Does it right? How to ward off the error? Is there any potential problem if I ignore it? My actions are smbmount and smbumount some shares. Sometimes some shares are smbumount before they mounted (thus cause a

Hi- Ok, this is puzzling me. I have two machines on different networks running Samba 1.9.18p10. On one machine, which is running Redhat 5.1, I can do "nmblookup -A <IP ADDRESS>" and get the IP address of a host on the LAN. This network also has an NT server domain controller, but I doubt that matters in this case, since I'm querying the machine directly. The second machine

Mounted a smbfs filesystem from windows 2000 server. I am not able to list about 1500 files in the mounted directory, the other directories are OK.

I'm wondering if it's possible to do the following. I've got a source directory of /data with several subdirectories such as subdir1/ subdir2/ subdir3/ , etc. I'd like to rsync these to a different host under directory /backup, so that I have paths /backup/subdir1, /backup/subdir2, etc. I also need to be able to use the option --files-from. So, a source dir of /data on host1,

Hi, when I try to mount a share on my windows pc using smbmount it says that it needs mount version 6, but my mount came fron util- linux and it's version is 2.9....

Hello All, I had a problem with 2.0.3 on RH6.0 (linux) where a mount of an NT server share on my linux machine would mysteriously die after a period of time (a long time? not being used? don't know why, but hours of unuse). I would get an "input/output error" when I tried to do a df later. To get around the problem, I found I needed to "umount" (not smbumount) the

here's how i mounted a shared folder: #mount -t smbfs -o username=me,password=psw,workgoupt=kppo //har-file2/new-gp /samba/k-drive and when trying to un-mount using umount /samba/k-drive or, smbumount /samba/k-drive I get this message: 'device is resource busy' Any idea why i can' unmount this? please reply to all, thanks!

I want to backup a directory using tar, but want separate tarballs for each subdirectory. For example: # ls dir1 subdir1 subdir2 subdir3 Will it possible to do it using only tar command? Or will I need another separate piece of logic/control? I thought of writing a shell script with three tar commands for each subdirectory, but that's not elegant way of doing it. Also, it may not scale as

I'm running Suse 8.0, Samba 2.2.3a, and KDE 3.0 I'm trying to mount shares when a user logs in and unmount them when a user logs out. I'm able to get them mounted ok. It's the unmount that is causing problems. Whenever another user logs on he's got the same mounts as the prior user. Everytime the original user logs in the mounts are regenerated. In my runlevel file

I do this manually: smbmount //Beverley/C /home/data pwd: "insert pwd" cp -ruv /home/samba/public /home/data smbumount /home/data This lets me do the following: make a copy of all my samba shares on the server to a client named Beverley C drive. ruv does the following recursive (all subdirectories and subfolders) unchanged (only write over when newer) verbose pwd: "insert

I've got a win98 laptop and a linux box. On my linux box, I smbmount a directory from the laptop. Alas, win98 boxes crash a lot, and I move the laptop a lot... to and from work. If the laptop crashes or if I move it with a shared directory mounted on my linux box, that mount gets "Stuck".... it's present in /etc/mtab but when I cd to it and do an ls it says: 243 emily ~>ls

Hello, I have a RedHat 7.3 workstation and have created a samba mount to my samba server. Everything seems to be working ok, but when I reboot my RH workstation the mount is not reestablished. I believe the problem is that when I reboot the machine the samba share is not unmounted. After rebooting the machine when I run smbstatus on the samba server it indicates the mount is still active.
