Hi, Two users on a network runing Samba 2.05a and Win95 OSR2 clients have a problem that occurs several times a month, always near the end of the day. If they open a samba share, it doesn't show any files. The logfile says: [2000/01/10 18:03:06, 0] smbd/dir.c:dptr_create(453) dptr_create: returned 0: Error - all new dirptrs in use ? Apparently bitmap_find() (dir.c, line 450) wraps around to

I have a test server setup with Samba 4.1.4. All file interactions test work except when copying files from a CD or DVD to the samba share on Windows 7. I have a CD with a folder that contains 324 files and 22 sub-folders. Consistently if I drag/drop or copy/paste the folder in Windows Explorer directly from the CD to the samba share only 53 files and 4 folders get copied. No error dialogs

Hi, I'm having strange performance problems with samba and an application written with VisualFox Pro. This application is entirely installed in a Windows share and it has a hystory of strange phenomenons. Initially it ran fast on an old NT server (but that server has been replaced). It has strange performance problems with Windows 2000 Server: it runs fast with some servers and slow with

Hi, I get this error message in the log for a Win98 client which is regularly scanning a directory on the share. When this happens the client no longer can access any data in the shares (security=share), only the toplevel directory structure of a share is still accessible. This seems to be a new problem in 2.0.5/6pre (not sure if it already happened for 2.0.4). Any hints? Franz. Platform:

Does anybody have any tuning tips for a samba 3.0.23 server that is acting as a PDC with ldap backend and file server. The problem I'm having is a certain program runs in XP workstations that accesses files on one of the shares, it apparently opens lots of files and is constantly making changes to them. When I run top, I see each smbd process for each workstations is consuming about

hallo all, i would like to know, as i would suspect, nativ bridiging should work also, if only one iax party is behind an nat router and the other has a public ip. when i connect to iax clients, which have both pubic ip's nativ bridging is working. if one of the clients is behind an nat, the iax2 channels always get routed through the asterisk server (latest stable version from cvs) ?? i

Over the weekend I upgraded my IRIX servers to 3.0.13 and have found many strange issues regarding the creation of new folders. When I attempt to add a new folder through the Windows side I get an immediate error dialog box stating "You may not be able to access file created in the folder X:\New Folder." When I select to continue the folder is created, looking on the IRIX side the

I got mcp mag a day or two ago, Great writeup!! I was a little surprised that they ran such a glowing review of samba, with some of the negative implications on NT. It is very nice to see Microsoft show an interest in interoperability. -Steve Roylance > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeremy Allison [SMTP:jallison@cthulhu.engr.sgi.com] > Sent: Thursday, April 15, 1999 6:41 PM >

Hi, I have a strange problem : some users cannot acces to diretcory, the message is "access denied". The ACL is correct # file: rsrv/vol2/data1/groupes/CORDAF # owner: root # group: Utilisateurs user::rwx user:mro:r-x user:sad:r-x group::--- group:administrateurs:rwx group:daf:rwx mask::rwx other::--- default:user::rwx default:user:mro:r-x default:user:sad:r-x default:group::---

Thanks for the suggestions! > The latter is easiest to deal with, replace it with a CNAME in the AD dns. I did the CNAME, but when I remove the netbios alias I can see the shares list when accessing \\aliasname, but then I'm not allowed into any of them. I tried rebooting the client but same result, and I also don't see anything in the logs :( > The first will require a bit more

these lines were an option before but have already been marked as comments in my config. same behaviour as before, color tag shows for round about a second and disappears suddenly.

For some reason I'm getting Access denied errors when I try to execute a .bat file that resides on a TRU64 samba share, from a Win95 command prompt. The drive is mapped as x:\ & for the sake of testing, the directory has been recursively set to 777 (chmod). Command prompt output: x:\> x:\r235\src\ntprpst\sharc\mta\src\build_sharc_fta.bat Access denied -

Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to Samba and struggling with the folowing: The system is a W2003 domain with W2K clients and Samba 3.0.14a-3sa on Debian (Debian package) I've made two shares: [homes] comment = Home directory read only = No valid users = %S create mask = 0755 directory mask = 0775 browseable = No [profiles] path = /mnt/sdb1/data/profiles/

Hi all. I know this has probably been asked before, but I need a quick answer, and didn't find anything on the net. Has anyone done any benchmark comparisons of server speed from Win95 clients, accessing files on a Samba 1.9.17p1 server share, as compared to an NT Server, running on the same server hardware? If so, how did Samba 1.9.17 measure up to the NT server? I need an answer to this,

Hi; I'm having a really odd problem with some Windows ME stations connected to a Samba server. From a command prompt on the ME stations, I do the following: dir *.* This works as expected, all the files in the directory are displayed. I then do: dir test.txt And I get: General failure reading drive G Abort, Retry, Fail. The directory contains the file, and the file shows up in a full
