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

Hi, in my Office, I'm trying to replace a Novell-server by a Linux-server. On the Novell-server, there is the SYS: volume. On this volume is a directory named DriveT. I did a map on it, so this SYS:DriveT was used as T: . If you link Excel sheets, which are stored on T:, to Word documents, Word unfortunately saves the UNC path, which is \\SERVER1\SYS\DRIVET instead of T: On my new Samba

We're trying to get samba running on a RH 6.1 server installation, runnijng as a trial. So far we can only see the server on 2 NT 4/SP4 workstations and not on the Windows 95 clients, and then only if we do a Start/Find/Computers. I can map a drive to a share, and can reconnect to it after rebooting the NT workstation, but can't see the server in Network Neighborhood. TCP/IP is

Hi, I've been following some of the posts (never received a reply to mine but found one similiar). I have a question that I hope you can clarify. Original question: I can see the server from my Windows XP machine using network neighbors, but when I double click on it I get: Path not found One reply: If you're using NT domains (not simple "workgroups")... What is the

Hi to all, I've this problem: When I start browsing in Explorer from my NT 4.0 SP3 Server, the SAMBA Server don't respond to the broadcasting.

I have 2 subnets. Subnet 1 has an NT WINS server. Subnet 2 has a Samba server acting as domain master browser and local master browser for a workgroup. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 1 (call it PC_A), I can see all the hosts in the workgroup on both subnets. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 2 (call it PC_B), I cannot see PC_A. I

Howdy all: I thought I had this problem beaten into submission, but I guess not. We just got our first NT box, which is another new wrinkle... Anyway, the LAN just went belly-up again yesterday, and when the LAN guy disconnected my linux/samba box from the network, Network Neighborhood came right back. I still don't think it's a linux/samba problem, but I'm certainly no

Howdy: Can anybody explain why /var/log/messages is filled with the following? Aug 18 09:37:53 rama PAM_pwdb[28483]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) -> arnold for samba service Aug 18 09:38:25 rama PAM_pwdb[28494]: (login) session opened for user arnold by arnold(uid=0) The first one happens every time I browse to rama from win95 Explorer; the second one is from a telnet login

Hi! I am using RHL 5.2 and Samba 2.0.2. I have the SAMBA acting as the PDC in the network where most of the clients are Win95. Earlier we had a Novell Netware Network and I decided to shift over to Linux/Samba. I am having trouble implementing certain shares. The exact problem is described below: I want ONLY 'nhs' and 'vhs' to have read only access to '/usr/iso9001/edp'

Has any tried to connect to a samba server while using Win98 beta 2 as a client? I keep getting incorrect username/password errors in the samba log file and am unable to either map a drive or connect to a shared resource. With debug level set to 4 on the samba serve the main error seems to be error in packet at line 129 for cmd=117 (or something like that). If anyone else finds a fix for this,

I am configuring Linux (2.0.33) as a local router. I am wanting to use Samba (1.9.18p3) to "manage" the browse lists on my network so that computers on each subnet can browse resources on the other subnets. My local network consists of Win95 and NT40 workstations with NT40 servers. My test configuration consists one token ring segment on one side of the Samba box (network .192) and

Is there a way to prevent other users from being able to map a drive from windoww95/NT to anyother user directory on the system. For example I can map to anyone's account on the system and have read only access, is there a way to stop this in either the global or share level? Thanks

>From time to time someone will comment in this list that their Samba server has disappeared from the list of hosts in Network Neighborhood. Browsing the list archive has yet to turn up any good explanation of this phenomenon. I think I have a clue. This morning my server disappeared again. When I checked the process list on the server I noticed that nmbd had been swapped out to disk. The

We're running Samba 2.2.2 over an NT network. Our clients use Win95 (for the time being) and I wondered how we config Samba so they can map the shares using network neighborhood. We can map fine through MS-DOS, but when I try, for example, to map E drive to \\nfssrv\ads share via network neighborhood (where we ARE able to see the shares), it says E: is already connected to . Do you want

Hello, I'm new to Samba so sorry for this trivial question. I've configured my smb.conf with all the shares and enabled WINS support. I wanted to know what do I have to configure in my windows 95 machine. My LAN setup is - one Linux Red Hat 6.0 machine Pentium 166 and a windows 95 machine a 486. I've made my Linux m/c the proxy server using Squid. Also whenever I boot my Win m/c it

I have done a great deal of reading regarding the network is busy error, but haven't come up with an answer for one particular problem. Here is the situation. Two identical DGUX machines are sitting on a network. Both machines are running Samba 1.9.10 with no problems other than performance. Upon several recommendations about improving performance, they decided to upgrade to 2.0.3.

Hello.. I wonder, in which way Samba supports PAM? I downloaded samba-2.0.6-19991110 and there I found in changelog it's compiled with --with-pam.. My desire is to authenticate Samba users against Novell NDS. I managed to do this (under Linux) with many programs but Samba somehow resists :) I put something like this into /etc/pam.d/samba : auth required
