Hi, When I "smbmount" a shareable drive on my linux box, the result of the "ls" command is often false. (Kernel is compiled with "SMB Win95 bug work around" and "SMB filesystems support", Linux 2.0.34, RedHat 5.1, Samba 1.9.18p5) What can I do to solve my problem ??? Thanks a lot for your help. Michel

Local software is: samba-client-2.0.7-4 samba-common-2.0.7-4 samba-2.0.7-4 on RH 6.2 plus fixes, kernel is 2.2.16-3 NT server is 4.0 SP4 As root I can mount an NT share onto the Linux system: /usr/bin/smbmount '//ntserver/myshare' /mnt/test -o username=mylinuxuser,password=something,uid=myntuser,workgroup=CMP But the mount point gets forced to mode 555 instead of 755. It's not an NT

I have a problem. When I mount my CD (witch is on WIN97 machine) using smbmount I do not see all files in all dirs. If dir have more then, let say, 100 files (it is not the same every time), I do not see all files. This is a problem because on my Linux box I do not have CD-ROM, so if I have to install some packages I first have to copy rpm files on disk, and then install them witch is annoying.

I can't figure out what is causing the error message of [1999/10/13 11:39:42, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(671) bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0.0.0.0 (Address already in use) in my logs and thus preventing smbd from serving up connections. How can I track down what is causing this? Samba has been working great and now I must have done something but I don't know what. The

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen a weird problem in one of my clients. The reported that when issuing a smbmount command (both client and server are CentOS 4.4), it would take up to 30 second for the mount to complete. To make a long history short, by using strace and the source, I noticed smbmnt is first calling mount() using ascii options for *data. Then that would

Anyone knows of an open mailing list / newsgroup about VMware? If such a thing doesn't exist, I'll happily create one and, if not much of an annoyance, advertise it here -- just once I promise! ;) I'd like to discuss heavy-metal technical issues about the relationship between VMware, the Linux kernel, X, Samba and the like. Thank you for your kind attention. -------------- next part

Hi all, I am running SuSE 6.2 on a machine with 2 processors, so I just recompiled the kernel to pick up the second cpu. I now have problems using smbmount (2.0.5a that came with distrubution) or using the newer mount syntax (I just installed 2.0.6) to mount a share from an NT 4.0 server. After issuing the smbmount/mount command, and then going to the mount point, I get i/o errors on the

I posted a previous thread about using smbmount, but I am still having some problems, using samba version 2.0.5a on SuSE 6.2. I issue the statement: smbmount //NTServer/share /mnt/test -Iaddress -Uid%pswd Afterwards, if I go to the mount directory, i.e. 'cd /mnt' and issue the command 'ls -l' I get an error message 'ls: test: Input/output error'. After that, the mount

Hello. I hope that this is the proper place to ask this. Here is my problem. I have several smbmounts under Red Hat Linux 5.1. They need to be accessed by my apache web server. One of the mounts keeps getting disconnected, but this is not noticed by Linux. So the Linux box thinks that the files under the smbmount are still accessable when they aren't actually mounted. What would be the best

I have Fedora Core 1 workstations configured with winbind logging onto our NT domain. Everything is going well except that I cannot seem to figure out how to connect to a windows home directory on a Win2000 server. Here is the scenario: W2K server with home directories for each user: Each user has modify permissions to their share Administrator has full control First off, I need to somehow

I need to mount a samba share as mode 777, so all users can read/write/delete/create. I have this as fstab entry //host/public /mnt/home smbfs auto,uid=user,umask=000,defaults,username=Perkins,password= see, i've had to put uid=user just to get it owned by user user, so i could edit files i put mode=777, but it does nothing. i want to let all users read/write/create/delete

Hi, I'm running Linux 2.2.2 w/ Samba 2.0.2, using the smbmount that comes with Samba 2.0.2. I noticed that when I mount shares, smbmount sticks around, almost like a daemon: [root@jason /root]# smbmount //XXXX.gatech.edu/XXXX$ "XXXXXX" -U jkau -c "mount /mnt/cnd" < /dev/null > /tmp/smbmount.out [root@jason /root]# ps ax | grep smbmount 10678 ?

ok, on my windows machine, i see: myname on 'computer01\home' (H:) so i went to my linux box and did: smbclient -L //computer01 -U myname and i see Home listed as a sharename (why does windows show it as "home" but its really "Home" as reported by smbclient?). well everything works fine if i mount it like this: smbmount //computer01/Home /mnt/computer01/Home -o

Hi I get this mailing-list as a digest (as everyone does, i guess). This is quite inconvinient for answering single questions.. I every digest there is a message with Subject: Re: Samba dingest <NR>... This makes it hard to keep track about whath message the replay is ment for. Another problem is, that mime-attachments don?t seem to work. This is especially bad, because some Microsoft

Hi, I might have overlooked something very obvious, but: I am running Samba 2.0.3 on a SuSE 6.0 system. When I connect to SWAT, I can see all the settings in the Globals sections, I can change them, but I can't find any button anywhere to *save* these changes... Can anyone help? :)avid <>< David A.

Hi ! The O'Reilly "Using Samba" book, recommend not to include smbmount support as it is for Linux only: "This feature wasn't being maintained at the time the book was written, so the Samba team made it an optional feature and provided smbwrapper instead. The smbwrapper feature works on more Unix platforms than smbmount, so you'll usually want to use --with-smbwrapper

Greetings in Christ our Saviour. I am having an enormous amount of difficulties trying to do something that should be quite easy. Obviously, I am missing something.

However, when I log into my user account and try
