Hello Staff at Samba, I installed samba 2.0.7 on RedHat Linux 6.2 I tried the installation with the RedHat distribution, and the custom installation from source. The samba is successfully installed, but I can't seems to get smbd started. Everytime I try to do that, it quites right away. Following is the log for smbd. When I check the stauts of smbd and nmbd in SWAT, smbd is stopped and

Furthermore, running smbd with -d 100 didn't seem to show

I'm continuously getting this message - it fills all of my logs... How can I fix this, or stop winbind from logging to syslog? Thanks!

Hello! I posted before, figured I'd try again and provide more information in the original post. I'm running samba-3.0.22-1.fc5, joined to a W2K3 domain. All features appear to work - I've been running it this way for a month. This message appears not to actually affect anything, and it occurs every 30 seconds or so. I'll be happy to post my configs, if necessary. This set

Okay, first the admisssions: I'll admit that I haven't been following the development as closely as I probably should have. And I'll admit in this case I might not be using Samba in the most efficient way possible. Also, I'm not 100% sure if I'm encountering a bug or just a seriously stupid misconfiguration issue. And I'm still collecting data on exactly what happened.

Hi, I want to switch from 'security = server' to 'security = ADS'. Kerberos is working and I can login to the server. With Samba 3.0.22 I was able to restrict access to shares with the 'valid users' directive. ve is local unix group. valid users = +ve And force the group ownership with the 'force group' directive. force group = +ve [foo] comment = foo

Hello to all, I have recently upgraded to SAMBA 3.4.2 on Solaris 10, and reconfigured it to use domain authentication (security = domain). We slapped guest authentication on most shares, with an explicit "valid users = ...." on a small number of sensitive shares. Due to the number of users we were looking at, we set up two UNIX groups "payroll" and "payoff" and

Hi all, I'm trying to get winbind going on a different PC to the one I've already got working, but I can't figure out why winbind won't work on this other PC. It mostly works (wbinfo works, net ads testjoin reports OK) but "getent passwd" doesn't return anything. The winbind log reports this: [2006/01/17 15:27:15, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(976) winbindd

Hello all, I'm in very big big trouble here. In an attempt to enable domain logon for NT workstations as well, I fetched the CVS code on Oct 5, 98. I successful built it with no error.

Hi! I tried accessing a Samba server 3.0.2a from a PDA (Dell Axim X5) with Windows Mobile 2003.
