I don't know who this problem belongs to, samba or Linux, but it's a common one, judging by the responses in my INBOX to a previous post. Plus, it's a fairly serious one; many applications require smb shares to be mounted continuously and without interruption. It's been a recurring problem which seems to have been pushed off to the side as not important, even though it's a

Hi, I´ running samba 2.0.5a and Linux 2.2.5. After smbmount sucessfully mounted my four nt-shares it lost the connection after 15 or more minutes. I´ve no idea why. The log reads smb_retry: signal failed: error=-3 I can remount all shares every 5 minutes but this doesn´t seem to be a good solution. Anyone who has a fix for this?

Hello, I have a Zip drive on my Windows machine, shared to the network. I can get to the drive through smbclient, but would like to mount it to my main Linux box to do backups. The Zip drive is known as \\mark\d to the network, and I would like to mount it to /mnt/zip However, smbmount is not able to mount it, nor am I able to mount it via smbclient. Anyone have this already working?

Hi, I don't know how many people on this list use samba with freebsd , but I have a question. I have samba set up and can connect to my other win conputers using smbclient but I am told that freebsd does not have smbmount. i need to mount my win hard drives in order to back them up. Is this possible some way with samba under freebsd. Thanks Rick -- Rick Knebel rknebel@uplink.net

We have downloaded the samba 2.0.5a source from net and tried to compile with the smbmount option, which is what we need for mounting. The following wor " ----------- client/smbmount.c: In function `send_fs_socket` : client/smbmount.c:295: storage size of `conn_options` isn't known client/smbmount.c:314: `SMB_CASE_DEFAULT` Undeclared (first use this function) client/smbmount.c:325:

Hi! I have a problem with smbclient and the option -M. I'd like to send Winpop Messages to my Windows Clients. I have noticed that command only works with short hostnames. I have for example a win95test1.no.domain host. Name resolution is done by bind 8 on the samba box. if I do echo "Test PopupMessage" |smbclient -M win95test1 it works. (The winpopup.exe program is of course

I've just tried to install MS Visual C++ 6.0 on our Samba 2.0.5a Linux Server. When I was asked for the installation directory I tried to use a samba-share that was mounted on a network drive letter. Just after this the setup programm refused the path as incorrect. Now the question: Is it impossible to install the VC6 package server based? I don't wan't to install this big package on

Does anyone have a cookbook for getting IIS (specifically with ASP's) working with SAMBA? Any help would be appreciated. I will summarize all responses. John -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hi All, I am experiencing issues with the use of DBase files on a Samba 2.0.5a share, that appear to be due to locking problems. Basically, I have test programs for both DOS and Win32 that does nothing but append records to a DBase database (DBF/MDX files). If more than one client PC is appending to this file, data loss occurs. I get random data loss, with records lost, and index file

Running NT 4.0 WS SP 5 and samba 2.0.5a on Linux, 2.2.12 kernel. Whenever I mount an NT share from Linux, it times out after an indeterminate period of time. This has been a continuing problem, the only workaround being to perform something requiring disk activity on the NT box, bypassing the cache (i.e., ls > /dev/null doesn't work, but df does). This must be done on a regular

Printing seems like a popular subject here lately. ;) I have an Epson Stylus Color IIs which I had connected to my Linux box. It was mapped on my NT box, and everything worked fairly well (except for the print quality--NT drivers for that printer suck). So, I bought a new printer--an Epson Stylus Color 740. I hooked it up to Linux, made the necessary changes to /etc/printcap, and printed some

I set up a new printer on my Linux box, an Epson Stylus Color 740. I had previously been using an EPson Stylus Color IIs. I got the printer working nicely in Linux, but I can not print to the printers I set up in /etc/printcap via samba from NT anymore. I.e., it worked with the IIs, but not with the 740. I didn't change anything in smb.conf. NT lets me install the printers via samba, but

First off, I don't know if this is password caching revisited with a vengeance or what. It's very inconsistent for the amount of time the share will stay mounted. I *think* the following are the relevant messagess in the log: Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-32, setting invalid Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_retry: caught signal And of course, I get the

Well, not like it should. I can capture a printer with the "net use lpt1:" command, but I would really like to be able to print to any one of the three printers in my printcap. NT gives me the error: "The parameter is incorrect". I attached the error message screen below, in .png format. This worked for the last printer I had. All I changed was the printer and the

I can't seem to find an answer or a workaround, and I've received stoney silence on this one. There aren't any answers in the archives (well, I didn't find any in the hours on several days I spent, anyhow). I'm convinced that I can't be the *only* one with this problem, nor am I convinced that there is absolutely no one who can help. Please feel free to jump in with
