similar to: Security related bug/issue ... or mis-configuration? (fwd)

Morning... Attached are two files. The first (smb.session) shows one user connecting to two different shares on a remote server using *no* password... The second is the smb.conf file found on that remote server, running Solaris 2.6, and Samba 2.0.3 ... I'm *really* hoping that its something that we're overlooking as far as configuration is concerned...or else there is one helluva

But, following the instructions, I get: eris:/usr/slocal/samba/bin> ./smbpasswd -j ACADIA -r pdc.acadiau.ca attempt_netbios_session_request: PDC.ACADIAU.CA rejected the session for name *SMBSERVER.

Under Solaris 7/sparc, I get: Compiling smbd/connection.c smbd/connection.c:381: conflicting types for `utmp_yield' smbd/connection.c:30: previous declaration of `utmp_yield' 381 has 'int pid', while 30 has 'pid_t pid' ...

Does anyone have any experience with a high number of *simultaneous* connections? We're investigating the possibility of moving one of our servers from novell to solaris, and the only "concern" we have at this time is what happens if 800 clients all decide to connect at the same time? the server will be running solaris/7 on a dual-ppro system ... I konw with the 'idle'

Here's an odd question/request ... Right now, if you setup smb.conf with a [homes] section, anyone can connect and login to the server, as themselves, and mount their home directory. No probs there. Has anyone thought of, and possibly implemented, a means where that end user could change things for themselves to extend permissions on their directory? Basically, make a Win based utility

Don't know how many ppl saw/read the following: http://www.zdnet.com/pcweek/stories/news/0,4153,1015266,00.html One of the comments on Slashdot was the question as to how well 4.4lite would have done in the same tests, as they "theorize" that alot of the problems revolve around Linux's IP stack... Now if only we had a working MMAP, we'd be all set... Marc G. Fournier

morning all ... I want to share a drive between two of my computers ... dont' want to deal with smbpasswd, so am just doing it as an open share with a host allow set to the computer that i want to share with ... smb.conf is setup nice and simple: [global] workgroup = MYGROUP server string = Samba Server hosts allow = 10.27.227.73 log file = /var/log/log.%m debug level = 3

G'day ... Altho it is rare, we are getting union_lookup panics on our server(s) ... as most on this list already know, we make heavy use of unionfs to share between jails, and I already know that this is the "kernel side" cause of the problem ... but ... From what I can tell, though, the "trigger" for the panic is pkg_delete ... if I build a jail'd environment,

Okay guys, This is separate from my last few messages. Along with those attempts, I decided to migrate from pxelinux.0 to gpxelinux.0 in my existing setup. Admittedly I haven't tried previous gpxelinux.0's but I am willing to if someone thinks it would be useful. Everything works as expected with pxelinux.0 of the same version. With gpxelinux.0: TFTP Prefix: Trying to load:

Just went to look at that page, and all the dates are pre-'98 as far as "last updates" are concerned... Does anyone have a URL or anything that has testimonials of some sort? Trying to provide my boss with ammunication against another 'manager' who just sent around comments from a Novell mailing list about Samba... I'm curious about stuff like server/platform being run

Due to an issue I'm having with 7.x, and trying to track it down, I spent tonight getting my server setup to allow my to break into the debugger when it hangs, and hopefully dump core ... But, although I *think* I've got it all, I'm obviously missing something, as it isn't breaking ... First ... I'm running a proliant server, and when I connect via SSH to ILO on that

I'm attempting to set up a 2-way NT4-style trust between samba 3.0.1-2 (from source rpm on redhat 7.2) and Windows 2003 running active directory. The AD server (SANDMAN) trust of my Samba domain works fine, but when I try to use the Samba trust of the AD server I get the following error: [2004/02/04 15:52:34, 3] rpc_client/cli_pipe.c:rpc_api_pipe(462) Bind NACK received on pipe c009!

I can't answer any of this, but the following was taken from a thread on the "Novell Technology Transfer Partners List <NOVTTP@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU>" and passed over to me by my boss... Any comments/refutations/etc most definitely accepted... Please note that *I'm* the Senior Unix Systems Administrator at the University I work at, and have been moving us towards Samba since I

Hello, We're experiencing a problem with samba after an upgrade, which only occurs when using a strange combination of software. The problem only occurs with samba 2.2 and higher. This problem does not occur with samba 2.0. We tested this with samba 3.0alpha17, 2.2.2, 2.2.4, and 2.0.10 First off, sticking to procedure, TESTs 1-11 as described in DIAGNOSIS.txt succeed. I've gone as

Morning... Just spent this evening getting printing setup off my FreeBSD machine (oh, how I love Solaris at these times *groan*)...got it now so that I can print directly from Netscape, color and graphics and all. The printer is an HP 560c. Now, I want to be able to print from my Windoze95 machine, and have samba setup for that, as well as file sharing. If I setup my Windoze machine such

I just made one of my 4.x remote servers inaccessible and just tested it on my 5.x laptop, and it does the same thing ... not sure if this is considered a 'desirable' effect, or a but ... but ... 'ifconfig <device> -alias' will wipe out all IPs on the device: mobile# ifconfig -a lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask

A friend of mine is running Samba (samba-2.0.3-8) on a couple RedHat Linux 6.0 machines. He is sharing files bilaterally at work with a WinNT machine and at home with a Win9x machine. In both places, he is getting a large number of SMB error messages. I'm not sure whether these are from the smbfs (smbmount) or from the Windoze machines accessing the Linux drives, though I suspect the

anyone know if this will work okay with 2.0? I'm looking for a Windows interface for those used to such, and this looks like a pretty good "stand-alone" product... Marc G. Fournier Systems Administrator @ hub.org primary: scrappy@hub.org secondary: scrappy@{freebsd|postgresql}.org

Hi... I'm trying to "sell" the idea of Samba (instead of NT servers) at work, to replace Novell servers...but am having problems figuring out how to do something... If I go into NT, Windows Explorer and do a properties on a file, there is a section that allows you to set, essentially, ACLs on a file...allow various individual users or groups of users to access the file without
