Hello, I am having a very speific problem with my samba interface. We just migrated to a new IBM pSeries server with AIX 5.3. The older server was a RS6000, with AIX 5.2 and everything I'm about to describe below worked without fail. We have a Windows 2000 Server that runs IIS. There is a web-based program (programmed in VB Script) that calls test.sh AIX script (through samba) on our AIX

Hi folks, I'am using Samba 2.0.0 on a Linux and a Sun box and i have the following problem: I can log in from a smbclient but not from an NT Client using Security=Domain. 1.) Doubleclick on the machine opens the password dialouge (which should'n appear, beacuse i'am already logged in the domain) Enter my domainusername and password. Window dissapears and appears again and forces me

Hi! When I enter smbpaswd as a normal user iget the following error: Connecting to 127.0.0.1 at port 139 machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : The specified password is invalid.

Samba is causing a couple huge problems for the NT admins here since we switched a bunch of machines to security=server and started running nmbd. We're running Samba 2.0.2 and 2.0.3 on a mix of Solaris, HP-UX, and OSF1 machines. One, selecting a Samba server in Server Manager, then selecting Computer/ Services causes Server Manager to crash ("An application error has occurred, blah blah,

Hi again, I was previously writing for a problem with Arcserve IT and Samba (with linux). The connection drops after 15 minutes. Continuing to understand what's happening, I discovered the following message in the logs: [1999/06/01 14:42:08, 0] smbd/files.c:file_new(85) ERROR! Out of file structures Immediatly I ran into the samba code to try to understand the cause of the problem.

Hi everyone, We use samba 2.0.4 and are very glad of it. However, recently I had to add a backup facility on our network, so we plan to purchase Arcserve IT for NT, in order to backup our servers. We are using mainly 3 Linux servers and 1 NT server, which runs the backup service. However, as Itried to add a simple share on the file server to enable backup, later I encounter problems with

Hi everybody, I'm having issues with samba. When I try to see my shares from a Windows 2000 station, I get the following error message: I've checked the log file, I could see that these errors always have to do with the /root/tmp folder, whose permissions I think it is allright: [root@printerserver2 /root]#ls -la ... drwxrw-rw- 2 root root 4096 Feb 9 16:54 tmp/ .. So,

Hi! I've got the fillowing trouble. Im' trying to get the local shares list. I started the smbd using "/etc/init.d/smb restart" script. It seem to work fine. The smb.conf and log.smb are listed below. The smbd says that he "Can't change directory to /root/tmp" when I'm trying to "smbclient -L localhost -U%". The permissions for /tmp/SHARE are

My Samba-shared printers (v2.0.3) printers worked great until I updated several software packages last weekend. These printers are networked and can still be used by running lpr from the command line of my Linux (RedHat v5.2, kernel 2.2.5) server. Print jobs sent from the client machines (OS/2 and Win98) are not printed. A job sent from a client machine is apparently just lost. Nothing

We are experiencing problems with Adobe Photoshop and Samba, all versions up to 2.0.6. We run Samba off Compaq Alphaservers (ie 64 bit). Symptoms: 1) On doing a "Save As" in Photoshop, we intermittently get: "Could not save as F:\<filename> because the file is already in use or was left open". A zero length file is left on the Samba share. 2) Problem only

Any and all attempts to connect to our samba server, packaged in the redhat RPM found on samba.org, have failed. The allow statement is set to localhost, x.y.z. where x.y.z is our class C(ended with a period, as per the online help in SWAT.) Local connections via smbclient work beautifully, but connections from any other machine fails. I've followed the troubleshooting procedure to the

Helpp! :) We didn't catch this in testing and now it's killing me in production! I'm getting stuck with my fresh build of Samba 3.6.10. It isn't honoring groups specified in the valid users clause of the share configuration. I'm running in security = SHARE mode, and user authentication is working just fine. Even if I specify individual users on the valid users = line, it

I've battled this one for a few days now and its costing my sanity so I am hoping that someone here has an answer I am running the samba server 3.0.4 on a linux 2.4.25 server. I can connect to my share point and authenticate fine I can create files or directories in the root of the sharepoint fine I can go into subdirectories and look at all the files... But I cannot create in any

I have samba correctly setup to share resources between my linux box and my win98 clients (The encrypted passwording disabled accoringly). I tried to configure it for domain logons with my win98 clients, by enabling WINS server, domain logons, and master browser in the smb.conf. When I login on my win98 machine, I get an error saying that the password is incorrect (which it isn't) or the

Hi All, I noticed slow performance when make file copy from server to client. From client to server it is OK. Also I tried mount locally on localhost - same results.

Problem: When I try to open a samba share from a Windows 2003 R2 computer, I get a login challenge. When winbind and smb start up, the logs look clean except for the following: smbd.log -------- [2008/11/11 04:42:16, 3] lib/privileges.c:get_privileges(261) get_privileges: No privileges assigned to SID [S-1-22-1-0] [2008/11/11 04:42:16, 3] lib/privileges.c:get_privileges(261)

I have been having a problem that has had me scratching my head for the last week and a half. I have searched with google, read the 13th hour troubleshooting guide (stopped when it got to the sniffer diagnostics), and have even upgraded samba to 3.0.0. I will post a description followed by a level 4 debug log file. When a user opens the "Public" share they can browse the share without

Hi I've talked about this in other messages but have a feeling it might have got lost amongst the other symptoms we were discussing. I had a Redhat 9 server on which I'd installed Samba 3.5.6 (built from source). I had it authenticating successfully against a windows 2008 active directory server. I then upgraded the Redhat server to RHEL5.3, on which I installed Samba 3.5.7 (and

Hello, i've some problems with the plp printer spooler on linux: I changed from bsd printing to plp printing. Previously (with bsd style printing) i was able to browse and delete active printjobs, stop and activate printers from within the win9x/winnt boxes. After changing to plp this is no longer possible. The printjobs themself are still printed. Some output in the log.smb (with debug
