Sorry about the previous message... Note that the maintainer listed in MAINTAINERS is no longer active, so perhaps it should be updated? I've found a problem with SMBFS and *really* long pathnames. It causes the kernel to OOPS, and sometimes corrupts the kernel stack. I've even had it corrupt the SLAB allocator so bad that no binary could be run :) REPORTING-BUGS format answers, let

Hello, I just upgraded to samba 2.0.4b from 1.9.18 on OSF/1 V 4.0 Everything used to work fine in 1.9, and everything works fine now, except that one of our users can't connect to anything from Windows NT. I've also tried to use smbclient from her Unix account, and get the error: >smbclient \\\\clang\\public >Added interface ip=128.104.25.251 bcast=128.104.25.255

Dear people at the samba organization, I wish to create multiple workgroups using SAMBA in a single domain on a LINUX Box. The linux box is also the primary domain controller. Please enlist me the procedure and mail to me as soon as possible. Thanking you in advance Sincerely Roopinder Randhawa.

Hey, so i finally got it working thanks to your list (found the right place for EnablePlainTextPassword here, the existing 3-4 matches in the default registry don't seem to do a thing). It was all brilliant. I got connected to all my 4 samba servers. I was happy... 'til the next boot (you know, during installation of system, boots happen). Now it connects to 3 sambas (1 on FreeBSD, 1 on

I am trying to use Samba 2.0.3 with encrypted passwords. I have everything set up according to the instructions in encryption.txt, and can authenticate into NT 4 Server shares with smbclient. I can also attach to my smb server using either smbclient or Win95. But NT4sp3 won't browse or connect. That I can connect to external NT shares would seem to indicate that samba is correctly sending

I have had a RH5.2 server running Samba up for a long time. I upgraded to Mandrake 6.0. It broke Samba, so I reinstalled using the RPM on the CD. Samba works just fine, but SWAT will not! If I try to start it manually (/usr/sbin/swat) it just hangs. In /etc/services I have a line like this: swat 901/tcp In /etc/inetd.conf I have: swat stream tcp nowait.400 root

my customer wants to export both users' home directories and a public one; as far as the home dirs are concerned, my customer wants the system asks for user's login & password before providing access to grant privacy but wants no password for the public one: is this possible? I tried setting security mode to user (security = user) in the global settings thinkig this would make the

Hello everbody, I have a small problems with Samba 2.0.3/SuSE 6.1 and my Windows NT Clients: As long as I'm working with Win311/95/98 clients everything is OK, but when I try to connect with a WinNT 4.0 client, I get the following errormessage (translated from german, so the US message may sound a little different): Unable to connect to \\linux_server_01 Unable to log on with this account

Hi all, I have a machine running Samba (2.0.5a/Solaris 7) which is supposed to be the master browser from my domain. It's been running fine for a couple of weeks. But today it seems that some of the NT workstations are overriding it in elections and are becoming the master browsers (and the Samba server is giving up). I've SIGKILL'ed the nmbd processes, but after they wake up they

Hello, I know I should get rid of the problem by my own, but unfortunally I failed. So I ask: I`ve a subnet of win9x and WinNT clients connecting to our Linux file server (no more servers in this subnet) via samba 2.02. All win95 can see and mount services of the Samba server. But win98 and WinNT can only see the server but can not connect to a service. I`ve no encryption and security= user in

Dear all, I recently upgraded to Samba 2.0.3 and read the doc files about NT machines because I cannot connect to the Samba server. In the WinNT.txt file there is the following proposal: [ --- Start of pasted text --- ] The following registry entry change will re-enable clear text password handling: Run regedt32.exe and locate the hive key entry:

WARNING Newbie question WARNING I am attempting to get Samba up and running. It is installed on a RH5.2 box, and everything went pretty well. I can see the samba box in Win95 network neighborhood, but I can's connect to it. I am suspecting that the Novell 4.1 box on our network is interfering. I can't seem to find a good document on samba/novell stuff, so any assistance would be

I've seen this question asked on the list, but never answered. I've tried searching the archives, etc., but don't find anything relevant. I have a network with several Win95 and 98 client machines and one NT4 machine (NT Workstation, not Server). It's currently using Novell, but I've been testing a Samba server as a replacement. The 95 and 98 clients work fine. When I

I'm trying to think of a way to store/represent the Asterisk .conf files. One method is to store them in MySQL in some format, and then write some scripts to query MySQL and generate the conf files before doing a reload. MySQL is pretty heavy handed though. I'm looking for something a bit more lightweight, maybe.... some sort of XML based database for Linux, where the config files could

Hi, I had trouble getting the pwdump program to work correctly on a german version of NT4SP3. I believe the problem is based on the fact that the german group 'Administrators' is called 'Administratoren', and Administrators is hard-coded into the utility. Would it be possible to make that an optional parameter? Unfortunately, I have no access to a C-Compiler on an NT-station, so

I am experiencing a problem with all time stamps having the same date and time stamp. I found this bug report http://us1.samba.org/listproc/samba/June1998/0239.html and see there is a fix. The question I have is has this issue been resolved in later versions of Samba code. It would be easier to upgrade than deal with a code change and re compilation.

Because, a bug in a sofware, I need to see (on a NT box) the name of files in upercase. The files are writen by a buggy UNIX process in lowercase. Any one have idea ? Didier JANNE Janne@securite.org

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong.

Hi, all! In the end I want to make Squid authorize users via NT4 domain.
