similar to: Invalid network name in tree connect...

Dear list readers: I've installed the most recent Samba from source on my Redhat Linux server. The simple file share I've made shows up, the machine pings correctly, and does ftp and apache fine, but won't let anyone login to Samba. For example: $ smbclient '//WWW.PSYCH.UDEL.EDU/SIMPLE/' -U me added interface ip=128.175.41.164 bcast=128.175.41.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

Hi all, I have been receiving the error "tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.)" for a while and I finally fixed it, but I have some questions about why it was happening. Firstly, it is Samba 2.0.7 running on Mandrake 8.0. My smb.conf file is at the end of this message. The machine's name is pinhead and in checking log.pinhead, I

Hello! I've finally gotten Samba and WinME to connect and see each other. On my WinME box I've got the usual My Documents folder which I'd like my Linux box to be able to use. I think there's a problem with the space in the directory name. smbmount //WinME/My Documents ~/mountpoint 2854: tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.)

I've just installed version 1.9.18p8 on SPARC Solaris 2.5. I can connect with no problem from by NT box (map network drive), but when I try using smbclient '\\\\machine\\share' from the machine I installed on, I get: SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.) Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password? Some servers insist

I have been having some difficulty with the installation of samba V2.0.3 on an ultraSparc 3000 server. I was able to get it built, I have configured, defined an smb.conf file, created an smbpasswd file, and I still get errors when I work through the Diagnosing Samba checklist. BTW, I have checked the conf file using testparms and corrected the problem mentioned there! I am using the newest source

Hi Is it possible to give users a different policy? If it's not possible by default, can I do it with preexec? Wasn't there an option to let a file contain the output of a program, and each time it is read, the output is piped instead of contents of a file? Because I think that would be safer, than a preexec that replaces my policy file, because when other users log in at exactly the same

I'm brand new to Samba and I am trying to set in up on our network (linux OS). We have two windows clients: a notebook running win95 (soon to be win98) and a virtual machine running win98. Right now, the host is running RH 5.2 with the 2.0.36 kernel. Samba-2.04b was installed from the rpm. I'm using Carter and Sharpe's "Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" as my guide. On

I just installed Samba for the first time. Installed and setup like a dream. Unfortunately, I can't login to save my life. The server appears in the Net. Neighborhood, but when I double-click to login, the login window give the following message: Incorrect password or unknown username for \\SERVERNAME Entering a username and password (from /etc/passwd) returns: \\SERVERNAME is not

I posted a similar email recently regarding this. One thing has changed, however; I have upgraded my kernel to 2.2.6 (hence I'm now using the samba version of smbmount rather than the smbfs version). I get the error "no such device" when trying to mount a network drive. My command line is: smbmount "\\\\susangra\\c-hd" -c 'mount /mnt' the console text which

Hi! I've got the fillowing trouble. Im' trying to get the local shares list. I started the smbd using "/etc/init.d/smb restart" script. It seem to work fine. The smb.conf and log.smb are listed below. The smbd says that he "Can't change directory to /root/tmp" when I'm trying to "smbclient -L localhost -U%". The permissions for /tmp/SHARE are

Hi everyone! Does anybody know what each of the error messages "ERRinvnetname" and "ERRbadpw" mean? The first one I get when I type my password after each of the following commands: smbclient -L localhost -U fabio //it only asks me for a password (I think it's to be my password) smbclient -L localhost -N //it doesn't ask a password. what/who is the username?

Hi, We're running Samba version 1.9.16p2 under Solaris 2.5.1 (w HW update 11/97). Our PCs run Windows95 with Network Neighborhood and a few have been upgraded to Windows98. I am currently looking at upgrading to Samba 1.9.18p10. On Fri., 12/4 one of our users reported when she selecting Entire Network she received the error "Unable to browse the network.

Can't connect to my newly-set-up Samba server from any machine in my domain, or from the machine itself. Network numbers/names replaced to protect the nervous :) Anyway, the NT server I also tried from claims that "login not allowed from this workstation." I've got the allow statement set up to allow any machine in my subnet to try and log in. The machine is configured to

Hi. I'm setting up samba on our webserver here, and are experiencing problems connecting to the shares on the computer.

Hi there, I am experiencing some odd behaviour with my samba server (version 2.0.7 running on mandrake 8.0). The server comes up ok and appears on the browse list, but you cannot list the shares on it.

Sorry about the previous message... Note that the maintainer listed in MAINTAINERS is no longer active, so perhaps it should be updated? I've found a problem with SMBFS and *really* long pathnames. It causes the kernel to OOPS, and sometimes corrupts the kernel stack. I've even had it corrupt the SLAB allocator so bad that no binary could be run :) REPORTING-BUGS format answers, let

Dear listmembers, recently our sysadmin turned off the support for ipx-protocol. Since then I found no way to mount my home-directory on the net (novell) on my linux box. Using ipx, I had had the same servername etc) I found a lot of discussions about the way vice versa, but no FM I could R to manage around this issue (i.e. mounting a Netware volume on a linux box). Anybody out there having an
