Hello all. Our system consists of two linux machines, each running Red Hat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.9-34), using SMB to mount multiple shares hosted by a Windows 2000 Advance Server. smbclient from Samba 2.2.5 is used to do the actual mounting. Over the weekend, a number of files on these SMBFS shares were created with incorrect timestamps (modification times). In some cases, the timestamps were off by

I've been working with smbfs/smbmount the last few weeks to allow my linux log processing server access to the logs on our NT servers. The problem is that after a period of time all the smbfs mounts become invalid with either one of two errors. When you do a 'df -k' to view the mounts you see the following: samba:~# df -k Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use%

Hi, I've noticed what seems to be a bug in the SMBfs page write code. It seems that the code in generic_file_write has changed fairly recently, and it is now a bug for the 'updatepage' code to clear the page lock and serve the wait queue. Unfortunately nobody seems to have removed the call to 'smb_unlock_page(page)' in 'smb_writepage_sync'. Would people who've

Hi- I'm working on a graphical interface to smbclient/smbmount/smbumount. As part of its operation, it will mount shares in directories under a user's home directory. I've run into a bit of a problem regarding the distributions of the mount utilities, specifically on Redhat 5.1/5.2. They are shipping an RPM with smbfs 2.0.1, which is known to have a security hole... so it should

How do i unsubscribe??

Hello to all, I connect from a Linux machine (als client) to an NT4 (service pack 3) server. On Linux side I use: kernel 2.0.34 samba 1.9.18p8 smbfs-2.0.2 I connect from the Linux PC via PPP ( with MS-CHAP) to the NT4 server. I tested first with smbclient: I can upload to the NT4 server text files of any dimension, ( with CR LFs ) but when I try to send binary files, (an ELF linux

'lo all Im wondering if anyone is getting the same problem with smbfs as i am with the 2.2.x kernels when i try to smbmount a share i get the following on the screen "SMBFS: need mount version 6" and also on the telnet shell or actual shell "mount error: Invalid argument Please look at smbmount's manual page...." the mans have nothing i revert back to 2.0.x and it

Hello All, I had a problem with 2.0.3 on RH6.0 (linux) where a mount of an NT server share on my linux machine would mysteriously die after a period of time (a long time? not being used? don't know why, but hours of unuse). I would get an "input/output error" when I tried to do a df later. To get around the problem, I found I needed to "umount" (not smbumount) the

First I will apologize for posting my patch here if this is not the correct place to post a patch. I know that smbfs is being removed, but we still use it and need it to work. We have a patch to contribute back to the smbfs in the 2.6 kernel. I have noticed multiply posts on this issue and we have basically patch the smbiod.c to fix the reconnect bug in 2.6 Something we did for our patch is

Hi; Unable to mount NetApp volume via smbfs on CentOS 6.6 I have been able to mount the NetApp via smbfs from a Mac but cannot from CentOS 6.6 What I have in /etc/auto_smb on the Mac is: /Volumes/build_dir -fstype=smbfs ://domain_name;account_name:password at machine_name/partition_name What is the equivalent on CentOS 6.6? I would be modifying /etc/fstab? I don't see any examples (yet)

Using RHL 6.0 (2.2.5 kernel) with Win95 systems, smbfs doesn't recognize (immediately) changes made on the remote the remote system by a user on the remote computer. After a share has been mounted, if some computer other than the computer using smbfs to mount the share adds/removes a file to a directory in the share, an 'ls' of the mounted directory doesn't show the new/removed

[Note: This has been posted to linux-kernel and was ignored. Since smbfs is maintained by the samba team, I am retrying here] Hi! To maintain and install packages from CD-ROM to my Debian/GNU Linux system, I use Debian's apt package. Since my Linux box is stowed away in a closet, I use an smbfs mount to mount the CD-ROM drive from my Windows desktop machine to the Linux box. This used to

I have a problem with smbmount. I have a linux server running E-Smith (or Mitel SME server as it is now) which is basically a cut down version of RedHat 7.0 (running Kernel 2.2.19-7.0.8smp). Samba version is 2.0.10. We are connecting to an NT server (service pack 3 - I must upgrade that sometime soon). We have quite a good tapedrive and backup software (3rd party) on the E-Smith server, whereas

Hi. I've been at it for a solid week now....trying to figure out how to mount a smbfs-resource at boot. See i need to do the following; mount -t smbfs //<machine_name>/<share> /home/<usr_name>/music ...only thing is, I have to run the cmd as a regular user. The easiest thing would offcourse be to have i run at when booting, but i don't know how to do that. Any help

I mount a WinNT share using a samba client version 2.2.5: smbmount -t smbfs -o username=user //ntserver/share /logs Then I want to watch a log generated by Internet Information Server (IIS) that grows continually: tail -f /logs/zzz.txt I can see the last lines in file zzz.txt the first time, but I don't get the new lines that are appended in such file. From any windows station I have

Hi, I've had extremely bad smbclient put performance when connecting from my Linux box to a Windows 95 box. I only get about 10KBytes/s! All other forms of data transfer work fine, and I get from 600-700KBytes/s. This is on a local 10BT LAN. I've seen a few other reports of this, but no solutions as of yet. smbclient does puts just fine to another Linux/Samba Server. I'm using

Hello, I have a RedHat 9 system mounting a windows share from a Windows XP Home machine that can't read new files put there sometimes, BUT, it can see them - it just gets permission denied. Here are some data points: 1. I mount the share with "smbmount" or "mount -t smbfs ..." and I pass a username and password, but windows always sees me as a guest. I suspect this

Hi all, I have set up an LTSP environment (www.ltsp.org) for a small group of users who have migrated from WinXP. As part of the setup, and during the transition, I have created a number of folders in each user's home directory which are mapped via SMBMOUNT to the NT domain controller's home directories, and various shared data folders. When each user logs into X, a script is run
