I am sure someone must have come across this. Is it possible to force files to binary when copying to Unix directories. NT -> Unix. Text Files have got ^M in them. How do we prevent this happening. Would forcing to binary fix the problem & if so how would this be done? Thanks Ajmal Ajmal Rafique eCommerce +44(0)1384 445564 (Telephone) +44(0)1384 446838 (Fax)

I have posted this question 3-4 weeks ago, but still get no response. In my environment, I have one Linux box running Samba 1.8.18p5, and there are about 20 Win95 clients which is in the same network. The porblem I usually encountered is when I click on the samba server icon in the NN icon, sometime I can get thru without any problem. However, there are also many times that I got error message

Dear all, When I try to browse the NT client using smbclient -L <NT-Client>, I saw the following output : --------------------------------------------------------------------------- added interface ip=203.154.148.70 bcast=203.154.148.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Domain=[MECH] OS=[Windows NT 4.0] Server=[NT LAN Manager 4.0] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- -------

First, thanks for all the replies to my plaintive cries for help; some of this gets a little frustrating when you're trying to do it from the seat of one's pants (as it were). Also, a big thanks to the samba team members (one of these days, I'll have to look into that pizza voucher thing...). I looked through all the docs, mail archives, etc, and the only references to the

Can anyone help with the following problem I am having on AIX 4.1.5. First I compile the code and all compiles with out error or warning then I begin to execute smbstatus, of course I have my smb.conf file. I get an error regarding "Can't read /var/locks/STATUS..LCK". After which I touch that file and then I run smbstatus again and I get the following error: # smbstatus doing

Hello Tony, Samba isn't the 'culprit', just the media used. Samba does NOT insert anything into the files that you copy over or have an application create on a samba share. The issue is that you are using a PC program to check out/modify the files, and pc os'es (Win/dos, i mean) use crlf as a ascii line terminator. Unix uses a lf only. So when you view the files with a pc

Has anyone had any luck with lmhosts. I'm trying to avoid using the -I 192.168.1.10 to identify a Win95 machine when using smbmount Is there an option I need to set in Samba to tell it to use /etc/lmhosts?

Hi, I believe it's mentioned in one of the docs with the samba distro, that this problem can happen, when you have File and print services enabled on the PC's using a protocol _other_ than tcp/ip like NETBUI or IPX. Samba use's TCP/IP only. Marc Heckmann UNIX systems Space Technologies, SGS Canadian Space Agency

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul

Hello, Normally, in addition to such qdisc scheduler mechanisms as FIFO, PQ, WRR, WFQ, are there any more? Then, there is a confusion on scheduler in Linux enviroment: Assume there is a qdisc, such as RED as a leaf qdisc in a router, we know, if there is packet which want to enqueue the packet, the Function red_enqueue is called, but when the packet leave the queue(when the Function red_dequeue

I am trying to setup my Sun running samba 1.9.18p10 so that it can backup my dept's PCs. I can get it to work manually using the smbclient command with no problem. What I would like to do is have a script that is able to take a list of PCs, determine if a PC is online, backup that PC, then move on to the next one. If a PC is down, it can report an error to the admin to state that the

It's much easier than that. The linux box keeps time in GMT, and displays it in the configured time zone. Try this, on the linux box: "touch testfile ls -l testfile TZ=EST5 export TZ ls -l testfile" You will see the displayed time change, because it's being translated from epoch time (that's what I call it, anyway) - seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970.

I require urgent assistance on a problem I am having with Samba 1.9.18 on AIX 4.1.5.

Okay, been working with tripack, seems the most mature package for this. Got it to work well with their test data set - data(tritest).

Hello Samba gurus: I apologize if I'm not following some established protocol, I'm pretty new to samba and to this list. I just tried compiling samba 1.9.18 on UnixWare 2.1.2 and ran into a problem with UnixWare's /usr/ccs/bin/cc: it doesn't deal with the "-o" option in combination with the "-c" option well at all. It either ignores the "-o" or
