I have been unable to make smbpasswd work on my new Samba version 2.0.3 (HPUX 10.20). The smb.conf was modified from a working version on Linux (version 1.9.18p8). The relevant (I hope) output from smbpasswd, smb.log and testparms follow below. Are the log messages about "Couldn't set effective gid to -24 currently set to (real=0,eff=0)" and "Can't become connected

Okay... seems I still cannot get anything working right with this as far getting it to print. Here is the three different files which I would like all to look at and see what I have screwed up since it refuses to print. Here is the setup of the network: HP 5L connected to Win95 - 192.168.0.1 Linux - Zeus - 192.168.0.3 -----------SMB.CONF FILE------------ ; /etc/smb.conf [global] printing =

I am experiencing a problem with all time stamps having the same date and time stamp. I found this bug report http://us1.samba.org/listproc/samba/June1998/0239.html and see there is a fix. The question I have is has this issue been resolved in later versions of Samba code. It would be easier to upgrade than deal with a code change and re compilation.

Because, a bug in a sofware, I need to see (on a NT box) the name of files in upercase. The files are writen by a buggy UNIX process in lowercase. Any one have idea ? Didier JANNE Janne@securite.org

My server is RH 5.2 and i use Samba 1.9.18p10 and the client use WFW 3.11 with tcp/ip protocols installed. The subnet and the IP Address is right but I still only telnet form WFW 3.11 to Linux...not the reverse. On Linux telnet is working. I've checked it through this cmdline "telnet localhost 23 or telnet 127.0.0.1" . And I also testparm smb.conf and nothing wrong happen. FYI I set

Howdy all - I have Samba 2.0.3 running like a champ on a dual PPro 200, 128 MB RAM, running Slackware 3.6, kernel 2.2.5. Running like a champ as far as file sharing is concerned, that is. I have an HP Deskjet 1000c hanging off the parallel port. I set up a raw printer in /etc/printcap, the line looks like this: dj1000|DeskJet 1000c:sh:lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/dj1000 the printing section

I have had a RH5.2 server running Samba up for a long time. I upgraded to Mandrake 6.0. It broke Samba, so I reinstalled using the RPM on the CD. Samba works just fine, but SWAT will not! If I try to start it manually (/usr/sbin/swat) it just hangs. In /etc/services I have a line like this: swat 901/tcp In /etc/inetd.conf I have: swat stream tcp nowait.400 root

I'm trying to figure out an intelligent way to install apps on the network server, and be able to install once and have all the clients use this. However, it seems like most installations modify the registry and seem to demand a client-by-client installation. Am I missing something on this? Can someone provide me some hints or references to help this? (And is anyone thinking about a SMS/ZEN

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong. There is no

Hia, I have a problem using the %G parameter. At the end if my smb.conf file I have something like: include = \etc\smb.conf.%G At this way I hoped that according the the group, I can load a configuration file accoring the the users group. Instead that a 'smb.conf.it' group is loaded, a samba tries to load 'smb.conf.nogroup' (guest account is uid=nobody gid=nogroup) WHat I

I'd like to take a moment to thank the samba team for a painless upgrade from 2.0.2/3 to 2.0.4. configure, make, stop, install, start. It was a joy. Woo woo! I've updated for 2.0.4 the patches for my auditing system, the close command parameter and smbwebstatus. Everything should be accessible at http://www.reac.com/samba/ auditing: http://www.reac.com/samba/samba-audit.html This

I have not found any Samba documentation explaining using DNS for name resolution. We are running a name server on the network which was set up for several reasons. I find our DNS server is faster, more reliable and doesn't generate mangled machine names like our NT WINS server, which can't be edited. This doesn't happen with DNS since the names are all entered statically. We have

I'm running FreeBSD 3.0-current and have just upgraded samba to 2.0.0. Previously, I used unencrypted passwords. After upgrading, they didn't work so I changed to use encrypted ones. I can now map my drives from the PC. However, I still have a number of problems that I think are all related. - I can't use swat. The authentication always fails. I get a message on the console

Hopefully this is a samba question, and not a Microsoft Access question... I have a multiuser access database on a samba share... it worked fine with multiple users being able to connect to it at the same time no probs. I just upgraded the linux box to red hat 6, copied across the same smb.conf from before and now users are getting a error "Too many active users" when more than one

When the world was young, "M. Tyson Bigler" <bigler@shellus.com> carved some runes like this: > I am having difficult getting the hosts allow/deny to work with IP ranges > or netmasks. Ideally I would prefer to use the IP/Netmask method, e.g. > 111.22.33.0/255.255.255.0, because we have a flat ATM network with > multiple class C's (netmask is really

I tried upgrading from samba 1.9 to 2.0 on two seperate RedHat servers, and after both upgrades nobody could get authenticated. The windows boxes had the registry hacks to turn off encrypted passwords, and I'm authenticating out of passwd+shadow. I found many similiar posts on DejaNews and in the samba mailing list archives. I broke out strace and found the problem. Samba 2.0 tries to

Hello everbody, I have a small problems with Samba 2.0.3/SuSE 6.1 and my Windows NT Clients: As long as I'm working with Win311/95/98 clients everything is OK, but when I try to connect with a WinNT 4.0 client, I get the following errormessage (translated from german, so the US message may sound a little different): Unable to connect to \\linux_server_01 Unable to log on with this account

Hello All, I am new to samba and need some help from the samba experts. I have installed, configured and running samba 2.03 on IRIX 6.5 It is working pretty well with encrypted password on. I have converted the /etc/passwd file to smbpasswd with mksmbpasswd script which generated 32X's format as stated in the documentation. Now the problems is, this smbpasswd file generated is not the
