similar to: samba blamed for network problems (help!)

Greetings All: I hope everyone had a fun Halloween weekend (I carved 4 big pumpkins and gave out a bucket full of rubber eyeballs and stuff). I'm hoping somebody can explain the password behavior I've been seeing (and a couple of other things). Here's my setup: An isolated LAN (most clients have modems for dialling out) with one linux/samba machine (RedHat 4.2, kernel 2.0.30,

Howdy all: I thought I had this problem beaten into submission, but I guess not. We just got our first NT box, which is another new wrinkle... Anyway, the LAN just went belly-up again yesterday, and when the LAN guy disconnected my linux/samba box from the network, Network Neighborhood came right back. I still don't think it's a linux/samba problem, but I'm certainly no

Hi, A weird problem ... My PDC is running samba 3.0 cvs from a couple of weeks ago. the os level is set to 65 and that machine has been the master for my domain for ages, until last night. A win2k client machine stoll the domain and made itself the master for the domain, hence a few problems. I have cranked the os level to 80, however I'm pretty sure that is not supported/a bad idea/not to be

Hi, i'm reading: samba-3.0.20a/docs/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/NetworkBrowsing.html#id2564441 ... The election process is /fought out, so to speak/ over every NetBIOS network interface. In the case of a Windows 9x/Me machine that has both TCP/IP and IPX installed and has NetBIOS enabled over both protocols, the election will be decided over both protocols. As often happens, if the Windows 9x/Me

I have 2 subnets. Subnet 1 has an NT WINS server. Subnet 2 has a Samba server acting as domain master browser and local master browser for a workgroup. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 1 (call it PC_A), I can see all the hosts in the workgroup on both subnets. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 2 (call it PC_B), I cannot see PC_A. I

Hello, I'm new to Samba so sorry for this trivial question. I've configured my smb.conf with all the shares and enabled WINS support. I wanted to know what do I have to configure in my windows 95 machine. My LAN setup is - one Linux Red Hat 6.0 machine Pentium 166 and a windows 95 machine a 486. I've made my Linux m/c the proxy server using Squid. Also whenever I boot my Win m/c it

Okay... seems I still cannot get anything working right with this as far getting it to print. Here is the three different files which I would like all to look at and see what I have screwed up since it refuses to print.

I followed the entire Starcraft/WinE HOWTO located at http://koti.mbnet.fi/~hoppq/sc-howto.html Starcraft now works just fine, except the Local Area (IPX) part doesn't work. My interface (eth0) is configured as follows: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:04:82:F7:A7 inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 IPX/Ethernet 802.3

I am having installing Napster on a system with out windows. I get to almost the end on installing the Windows Audio Format files, and then hangs. I can get the install to complete if I cancel the WMA support, but then napster refuses to run. Anyonw know how to do this? I tried both wine-20010216 and todays CVS. -Dan de Haan

Greetings Earthlings: I finally convinced the LAN guy to remove NetBlooie from our windoze clients. I also made the samba box the local and master browser (we have no NT boxes at the moment). Local browsing seems to have gotten faster (at least Mr. Robinson's Network Neighborhood resolves faster). However, our LAN is isolated (windoze clients dial out to get to the internet, retrieve

Hi all, I am still battling to get browsing across subnets to work. I just need some clarification on some issues. I understand the following things to be the case, please correct me if I am wrong: - Machines on a subnet will periodically announce their existance by broadcasting to everyone their identity - Other machines will hear these broadcasts, and add the machines to their browse lists. -

Howdy: Can anybody explain why /var/log/messages is filled with the following? Aug 18 09:37:53 rama PAM_pwdb[28483]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) -> arnold for samba service Aug 18 09:38:25 rama PAM_pwdb[28494]: (login) session opened for user arnold by arnold(uid=0) The first one happens every time I browse to rama from win95 Explorer; the second one is from a telnet login

I've studied the books, searched the list archives, etc. I suspect there is someone who can just tell me one thing to tweek, so I humbly beg your advice. Situation: I am playing with/learning Linux, intending to replace our two company Netware servers sometime in the next 6 months. At home, I have an NT4.0/SPC PDC, an NT4.0/SP6 docked laptop, and an HP server with RH7.1 or 7.2 (2.4.??

Howdy all: I'm trying to use smbmount to mount a win9x share and copy some files for backup, eventually to run as a script invoked via cron. I have RH6.1/samba 2.0.5a, and the windoze box is win95b. If I do the standard mount (smbmount //winbox/backup /mnt/smb04) I have to be root. Also, after it's mounted, I can't create any files there as a normal user (even though the

Howdy all: For those who are curious (eg, Peter de Groot <pdgtech@wantree.com.au>) here are the (I think) relevant posts from recent samba digests concerning win98 and or NT performance problems copying files between local drives and samba shares. It looks like there should be some new options to play with in the next samba release. Could Jeremy or Andrew confirm? (BTW, nice

Hi, I have a network with 4 NIC, one external, DMZ, and two internal, B & C. It has been setup correctlly and working now. The problem I have now, is any client workstation running on network B, MSWindows 2K / XP / NT cannot connect to the primary domain controller which is in network C. The clients cannot even see the network domain in the explorere window. I believe the problem is
