Hi, first of all Thanks for any help. I would like to share with SAMBA a Unix path to Windows clients. The problem i have is this: I want that this share would be READONLY for someone (or somewhat TCP/IP address) and READABLE/WRITABLE for someone else (even if throught a user/passwd authentication). I'm using Samba 2.2.6 and Wnt/W2k clients. I'm trying to setup my environment fixing

Can someone tell me how to configure my unix printers so that no banner page is printed at the beginning of a print job? I have gotten the printing to work, but I want to stop the banner page. What file do I change to configure that? AIX, 4.2.1, with NT Clients. Thanks in Advance, Pattee Bender Uniform Color Company

Since loading 2.0.x of Samba, the SMBD process is always ran as "root" when users connect. I just compiled Samba 2.0.3 on a AIX 4.2 to fix it according to the enhancement document. SMBD is still running as "root" on 2.0.3. Does anybody have a work around for this. Tom Harris Denton CAD tomh@iglobal.net

I've set up Samba and LPRng for HP printers with JetDirect cards. It works for one user at a time. But if the printer is off-line or busy, the samba client does not get an error message, but the job gets lost. :( I would like the print jobs to be spooled on Linux even when there is an active print job or when the printer is off-line. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with lpd. The

Anyone successfully using a HP 8000 DN or HP 5 Lsi (with JetDirect module and assigned IP) with samba? Subject says it all. If you're successfully doing this, what configs made it work? FAQs tell how to set up with a print server, but what if the printer itself is the server? Trust me, the HP doesn't know jack about port 139. Using samba 2.0.4 on Solaris 7 and NT 4.0 SP5 with

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,

Hello! After upgrade to version 2.0, now using 2.0.1, I'm experiencing problems with glusterfs stability. I'm running 2 node setup with cliet side afr, and glusterfsd also is running on same servers. Time to time glusterfs just hangs, i can reproduce this running iozone benchmarking tool. I'm using patched Fuse, but same result is with unpatched.

How do i unsubscribe??

Hi! I have samba 3 beta2 as PDC. Now I need to make all mebers of the unix grop "users" local admins on their Windows systems, because Wordperferct 8 doesn't run otherwise. As the "domain admin group" setting from smb.conf doen't exist anymore, I don't know, how to do the group mapping correctly. Could someone explain the steps to do it? Thanks in advance for

We're having a problem that is the reverse of prblems that others have had: if we have a file open in Visual C++, and change it from another editor (either on the PC or on Unix), Visual C++ does not notice that it has been changed and ignores the file when it does a make. If the file is on a local drive, everything works fine. We're running Samba version 2.0.4b on Solaris 2.6 and Visual

I have tried to compile 2.0.4b and 2.0.5a on AIX3.2.5 and it gives a problem when I test it with "smbclient -L bigserver", that was discussed in the archives. I thought it was fixed. It gives:- [1999/07/22 20:57:05, 0] smbd/uid.c:(68) Couldn't set effective uid to 207. Currently set to (real=0,eff=0). Error was Not owner [1999/07/22 20:57:05, 0] smbd/service.c:(463) Can't

I am an newby to samba, and I have a user who is getting permission denied when he attempts to copy files from his PC to his UNIX account. Everything appears to be working correctly on the samba server. I believe he is the only one having a problem. I found this message in the log.smb file after his copy attempt: libsmb/namequery.c:resolve_name(644) resolve_name: unknown name switch type

Yes, there is a line in the smb.conf called 'domain admin group =' Just put the UNIX group name that you wish to have admin rights on Windows to there. Then open up your group file and add whomever needs those rights on the system. I have found that needs to be done the first time that a user account is setup on a Windows workstation when Office needs to install a few files

Hi, This patch fixes a warning that gets issued if NBT name resolving methods are attempted on a name that cannot be an NBT name (e.g. longer than 15 characters). To reproduce this, start with a working setup, then: 1. delete cache files (gencache.tdb and gencache_notrans.tdb) 2. shut down your DNS or point your machine to a bogus DNS 3. do a "net ads testjoin" The reason we get there

Hello, everyone! I set the samba running on my sun ultra2 with solaris2.6. Seem every thing works. I can share the directories and PC can share unix printer too.

I'm a new linux user trying to run samba on Linuxppc R5 but smbd doesn't appear to be responding properly. Both nmbd and smbd are configured as daemons and netstat lists netbios-ssn as listening. I can't find anything else that would conflict starting from inetd. Nmbd appears to work as I can list the available servers and the server is seen by the clients but I don't need

HI, I have a problem when installing samba 2.0.3 on IRIX 6.4. If I use the standard IRIX C compiler with -n32 option, all goes OK. But if I use gcc with version egcs-2.91.60, then samba(d) does not run correctly: if I try to connect the smbd (with smbclient), I receive the output below. Does somebody have the same problem? /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -L origin -d 5
