I installed samba on an Intel based Server running Red Hat 5.2. I can access files on the shares I created but I run into a problem accessing a database program written in MS Access.

Hello, I am having a little problem with executing logon scripts on Win95 clients, logging into Samba Netlogon service. When a user logges in, a MS-DOS prompt shows up and quicky disappears.

Do the socket options still work with versions of samba above 1.9.16p10? I get error messages both on the command line and in the smb.log file that say: Unknown socket option IPTOS_LOWDELAY Unknown socket option TCP_NODELAY Here is my smb.conf Global parameter entry: socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY Do these have to be compiled into the Samba program?

Hi, I have set up samba to enable Domain-Logons for windows95/98. I am using Samba-1.9.18p7. I have a share netlogon with a batchfile for connection network drives. Everything is working. But when I create a policies file and put it onto the netlogon share windows doesn't use it. I have named it config.pol. Is there another special thing to configure? I have found archives of this

Hi everybody, Recently, I change my server to anoter, but I copied all accounts linux/samba users to new one.

I've had this problem as long as I've been using samba: every time anyone prints from a PC they get a banner page labeling them 'nobody.' Now, I realize this has to do with the guest account being 'nobody,' and the server is passing that name to the printer. It can get very frustrating, though, when lots of folks use the same printer and all of the jobs have the same name

Hi, When defining a queue for lpd using a SMB (Win95) printer, it uses a ".config" file that store a username and password for printing on the SMB server. Is there a way (as anybody tried and how to) to configure the lpd so the username and password used to print on the SMB server are the unix login and password of the user printing (password databases are synchronized), so the job on

Hi, I have a system running FC2 with SAMBA-3.0.10-1.fc2 installed on it.

Hi all! I have a little doubt, and hope that someone can answer me... Let's take the example. I have one master samba, where all my users logs in.

Hi, Now that I've been able to look at streamtranscoder 3.0, I see there's absolutely no documentation whatsoever. I've not compiled it, but I note that previously when you ran it first time, it would create a sample config file for you to edit. Maybe it still does this. Oddsock's flash demo may shed more light on this, but I can't use it so don't know. Geoff. --
