similar to: Problem Remote Printing with smbclient and NT

I'm having lots of hassles and troubles since I moved to 1.18p10: 1\ Why do I need a smbpasswd and have to have a user equivalent on the unix machine when an NT user wants to print via an smb printer? My NT/Win users shouldn't need to know anything about unix and I don't want to tell them "you have to log into my unix machine and invoke

Hello I just moved a win nt file server to linux/samba I've performance problem with the new server thought it's a more powerful machine (and os ;-) ): programs loaded from shares take (much) longer to start A network trace shows up that the throughput needed to achieve the program run (double clic to start then exit) from the linux server is more than 3 times the one needed to run from

Sorry that I will ask a kind of a vague question, but I don't really know how to proceed at the moment: Some of our Samba (1.9.18p10) users experience the following problem: they map a drive to a Samba share (pointing into AFS, if that matters) and see all files/dirs correctly after the password dialog. 'Some time' later (for one user usually about one hour) they try to use the drive

We are having a problem with Microsoft visual C++ compiling source code maintained on a samba server. Occasionaly the compiler reports that it cant open the file vc50.pch. The samba server is running on a freebsd box. Taking a look at the log files it looks like when the operation fails the server is processing the command open (vc50.pch for exclusive use write setattrE write open (vc50.pch

Hi all: I am experiencing a problem where WinNT and Samba are dropping connections during file transfers. I have the following smb.conf settings: keep alive = 30 dead time = 1440 socket options = IPTOS_THROUGHPUT SO_KEEPALIVE (although I tried IPTOS_NODELAY with no apparent benefit). The client is copying a large number of files up to the server, then there is a pause at a random file,

Using Samba 1.9.18p10 I have found a difference between Win95 and WinNT: opening 'Lotus Freelance' files from Win95 is really slow (about 17 kB/s only) vs fast (~hundreds of kB/s) from WinNT. Looking into the log (with debug level=4) I see using Win95: switch message SMBopenX (pid 33994) Skipping become_user - already user unix_clean_name [./PRIVATE/Goyal_Sep98.PRZ] Got dir cache hit on

My smb.conf file contains in the general section. max print jobs = 50 And i disabled the print queue using this command : disable PrintQueueName Therefore i would expect SAMBA to reject print jobs after the 50th. But in real life it does not, it continues to spool indefinitely. If i run a batch file from a client workstation to print continuously. It means the request to print is made

Hi Samba-Team, I'm using Fedora Linux and running samba 4.1.9. When I submit 2 print jobs from 2 windows command prompts from one Client PC simultaneously below error is logged and the data is lost for one of the job.

Hi Samba-Team, This issue can be reproducible in samba-4.2.5 also. Please find the attached log file for the same. Hope I may get some help to resolve it.

I recently compiled and installed Samba 2.0.7 on SCO OpenServer 5.0.4 using gcc v 2.7.2.1 (Skunkware 98). I was running Samba 1.9.18p7 with no problems. We use a modified smbprint.sysv script to print to Windows shared printers and also Netgear PS104 print servers. Printing to the Windows shared printers is working fine, but printing to the Netgear print servers does not work. I get the

Hi there ! I just upgraded (last friday night) our main Samba host to Samba 2.0.0 from version 1.9.18p10. This host provides access to our own file based database system. The number of Samba clients is around 60 (nearly all NT4.0's and few NT3.51's). The Samba 2.0.0 host runs 'uname -a': HP-UX vertex A.09.05 A 9000/720 65914162 two-user license After the upgrade change I've

Hi all, I'm extremely puzzled by the behaviour of one of my Samba servers. It's been working fine for yonks, and this morning (abuout 11:32) it just stopped. (mostly) Connecting to shares still works. Navigating the tree till works. Changing (DOS) attributes still works. But actually opening files and reading the contents doesn't work. The client just times out (Win 3.11, and

I just thought that I would put this out there and see if anyone else sees this problem with Samba 1.9.18p4 (under Solaris 2.6). It appears that after some reboots of Solaris, Samba printing is partly dead. What I see in the logs are below, and what happens is that the file to be printed is spooled to /var/spool/samba, like always, but when the lpr command is issued it croaks. I've been

I'm trying to copy a 400 MB file from a Windows 98 host to a FreeBSD 4.5 Samba server providing access to a FAT32 filesystem. I've got "strict allocate = no", but from what I can see with debug set to 10, it is doing a ftruncate which takes about 50 seconds to complete. It appears that Windows gets impatient and generates an error (while Samba is still waiting for the

Hello I've got some strange problems with Samba-3.0.4. When using roaming profiles, keyboard layout is set to english (instead of norwegian) and a lot of programs wont load correctly. Setting log level = 3 revealed a lot of errors after the netlogon-script had executed (and all shares correctly set up). I switched to log level = 10 to get a more detailed view of these errors (show below).

I'm still having some problems with 1.9.18p10 on a DEC Unix 4.0e machine (this machine was upgraded from 4.0d last week). The smbds can take up to 20% of the cpu at various times. Anyways, I've been through all this before with the mailing list and a number of people who have attempted to help me out. Thanks to all of you. But, I have some more info which may or may not be useful.
