similar to: SAMBA requesting to be a master browser....

Mystery solved! Multiple responses pointed out that if the master browser didn't respond within the 12 minutes, that a new election would be forced, and chances are that our unix system beat out the NT. (awww). The question of why our system (SAMBA) even participated in the election I still don't know, unless the default really isn't 0 for os level (at least for our version). The

We have a network of apx 200 NT's,W95 & W98 using an NT machine for WINS resolution. Our dept has apx 15 W95/W98 machines hooked to a hub off a switch from the main network. I would like to setup SAMBA to act as a WIN server for just these machines. Is it possible to do without changing subnets? Now to complicate the question. Network login is done via an NT machine as well. If we

Running samba 1.9.16p11 on Digital Unix 3.2c. We currently access unix shares from W95 without problems but now since we had our network overhauled, 2 MSDOS harddriveless PC's need to be able to access the unix system for it's hard drive. They have Intel Express cards . How do I setup the MSDOS computer to map a drive to SAMBA. One question is these computers do not have IP addresses, how

I don't think there is anything that can be done but.... In our Unix shares, we have multiple (hundreds) of filenames that have "*" in their names, which really messes up W95 when I attempt to display the contents of those shares. Is SAMBA not passing the filenames correctly or W95 is just not reading them correctly? Any ideas? on either side. (except changing the filenames to not

Hey all, Does anyone know of an existing project that acts as a file broswer for files/directories on the server. I need to implement something for my students to be able to access their unix home drives on our server via the web. It doesn''t sound that hard to do the actual file listing and accessing in ruby. Authenticating the users could be tricky (PAM?). It could be done, but

I am having broswer problems. Currently running 1.9.16.p11 on Solaris 2.51. I see the workgroup, CADCAM, in Explorer on a pc. But, when browsing CADCAM, the '+' sign goes away and nothing shows up under the group. PC's can still map the shares ok. My smb.conf entry is: browseable = yes workgroup = CADCAM Do I need to put something in the lmhosts file? Thanks, Garrett Curtis

Hi, As I understand it, for cross-subnet browsing to work, we need a domain master for each workgroup/domain? This presents a problem since many of our workgroups/domains are just a collection of Windows 95 machines and so do not have a domain controller to be a domain master browser. Can we make Samba be a domain master browser for multiple domains/work- groups (the list of domains/workgroups

I was playing with this on my test machine, (redhat 5.2, samba 2.0.3) worked great, and I was really impressed. So I decided to install this on my office machine. (redhat 4.2, samba 2.0.3) and the only significant difference is that on the office machine, I use encrypted passwords. I cannot get swat to authenticate on the second machine. That is, no matter what account, password combination

Hi, I've just upgraded to Samba 1.9.17, but I can't get my samba server that resides in a differnet subnet to show up in the PDC's browse list.

Hello all, In order to learn Ruby on Rails (I''ve done the tutorials) I''ve decided to sit down and try to create a broswer based game. I''m a bit lost on where to start. Does anyone have an suggestions? Would anyone be willing to help? I.e. I get stuck with any small bit of code you can give me a heads up, or tell me where I''m going wrong? Thanks guys.

Is there a standard way of programmatically firing an event on an element? I think this code works in IE but not FF: myElement.fireEvent(''onclick''); I really only care about IE and FF, but anything else is a bonus. I didn''t see anything in prototype/scriptaculous for this, but I might have missed it. Thanks. Joe Athman

Folks   I've managed (due to me being fat-fingered that morning) to get a DNS zone in a Samba-4 DNS setup screwed up.   Basically I was trying to add a new A record to an internal domain "e2eservices.co.uk" using the MS administration tools (not the samba-tool CLI). However instead of adding the entry "styx" to the domain, I accidently added

Thanks for the suggestion, however it is not a seperate zone, i.e. it appears to be a part of the "e2eservices.co.uk" zone with child objects (analogous to "_tcp" and "_udp" in a domain zone).   Alan   -----Original message----- From:Rowland penny <rpenny at samba.org> Sent:Fri 11-12-2015 13:16 Subject:Re: [Samba] Samba-4 DNS issue To:samba at lists.samba.org;

FYI and to whom it may concern, I have made Debian packages of Asterisk et. al. You still need to build a new kernel and the zaptel modules from source, but Asterisk and libpri are manageable with dpkg. The debs as well as mirrors of the source distribution are here: http://www.ntgos.com/Projects/Asterisk/Download http://parc.styx.org/asterisk I would also like to mirror the CVS repository as

When trying to install Microsoft Foundation Classes I find that winetools gets stuck on the mfc40.dll download. I can download mfc40.dll via my broswer, however. Where to stick this file, so that winetools can find it, and not need to download from dlldump.com? I'm on Ubuntu with the KDE desktop installed, if that matters. Thanks.
