Hello, does anyone has some Information about M$ Exchanges Fax. If you configure Exchange there is an Option about Fax. If you go there, you can say you have the Modem on your PC or you can say it is in the Network and you have to put in the Networkpath. It would be great to use this with Samba but at this time I think Samba doesnt support it. Maybe someone has some Information for me how I

I've just installed version 1.9.18p8 on SPARC Solaris 2.5. I can connect with no problem from by NT box (map network drive), but when I try using smbclient '\\\\machine\\share' from the machine I installed on, I get: SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.) Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password? Some servers insist

I was running through the cvs.log and I noticed that there was a bunch of stuff on LDAP authentication. I haven't seen anything on the official releases about this yet, and I was wondering when/if it was coming, or if it was already there and just undocumented. Anybody? -- ================================ Jay Christner Information Technology Services Goshen College

I want to thank whoever mentioned KerbNet by Cygnus Solutions! Wowza! I recommend that people check it out. It lets you implement Kerberos under UNIX and NT, and have them work together (so you have one *unified* security system that is used by both your NT and UNIX boxes). It's at http://www.cygnus.com/product/kerbnet-index.html It also does authentication *without* sending passwords over

Hello everybody, We are using Samba 2.02 on Sun Solaris 2.51 and 2.6 platforms. Using these as a file server we occasionally have the following problem: - the file is changed on the file server using standard UNIX tools while somebody else is editing it - the other user re-loads the file using a Windows 95 client - the content of the file seems to be the same as before the change on the windows

( I thought I sent this message out before, but never saw it in the digests ) Configuration : Windows NT 4.0 clients printing to Samba 1.9.18p8 running on Solaris 2.6/2.51 machines. The Samba servers are setup like this : ... security = server password server = %m encrypt passwords = yes networkstation user login = no ... So the server uses the

Hi all. I'm experiencing long connect delays due to password file locking errors. For each connection samba logs the following errors: do_pw_lock: failed to lock SMB passwd file. mod_smbpwd_entry: unable to lock file /usr/local/samba-1.9.18p10/private/smbpasswd In the archives I found some other messages reporting the problem (on May this year), but no solution. Did I

Hi. I have a samba install, samba-1.9.18p4, with security=server. Users are validated against the NT domain controller correctly, and user accounts do exist on the unix box (AIX 4.2.1) Problem is that while the uid of the files that users create is correct, the group id is always sys, even though the users have as primary gid STAFF. The definition of the share I am trying to create is: [cslan]

OK. Maybe I was a little terse in the description. I have a CD we (Candle) created. It installs one of our products by executing the setup.exe program. I am able to execute the program off the CD with no problems. I then copied the contents of the CD to the Samba share. I try and execute the setup.exe file and get this error. If I then copy the files from the Samba share to /temp, I can

Looking for help ! We have a rather strange problem working with Samba installed on a DEC Alpha server, when reading an exported directory from Windows. We are using an application written in C that reads a file from drive E: where a directory exported from Alpha is mounted. Once the file is read, all the further readings ignore changes in the file (file is changed on Alpha). Even as we read it

Hi! I am trying to print from an NT machine to a simple samba printer. That NT machine is the PDC and the samba box is having logins authenticated by the NT box. When I try to access the printer with my own username, it works fine. As soon as I have the account that is destined to do the printing print, it can't log in. I have included my smb.conf file and two log excerpts - one successful,

We recently tried the upgrade to 2.0 Beta series (just finished testing Beta 4) on our network. Everything works fine with 1.9.18pl10, but once we start 2.0 in its place we start getting the following in the log files: [1998/12/17 05:00:12, 1] smbd/files.c:file_init(219) file_init: Information only: requested 10000 open files, 246 are available.

Pam_SMB allows Linux clients to validate their passwords against an NT PDC, so the only thing you have to do is set up the accounts on the Linux side with an '*' in the /etc/passwd entry. This can be done using a list of users: #!/bin/bash for i in `cat myuserlist`; do /usr/sbin/adduser -p '*' $i with various other command line options, such as "-s

Hi. I have a samba server with 3000 users. I want to install another little server with a printer and I want to give access only to a group of users from the main server. [ MAIN ] [SAMBA-SERVER] | | | [little]-printer a group of users from MAIN can print [server] to this server Someone can give me a hint of how can I achieve this easily ? What document should I read ?

Is there any way to have an account that let's multiple users from Windows 95 clients log in? i.e., let's say there are shared folders called foo and bar. bar is public. foo is accessible to user "foobar" with password "foobar." Win95 keeps sending over it's username as the person who logged in to that computer, or as the computer's machine name... and samba
