Is there any option that will covert a text file from one system to the other? I have a few files on linux with extension TXT. There are plain text files. On NT, TXT is associated with the "notepad" and opens with the file as one long string. This is the typical CR/LF conversions between Unix and DOS. Can Samba convert the text files based on the client? Subba Rao subb3@attglobal.net

Hi, Is it possible that samba logs the windows username of the person that is connecting to a share. On many shares I use 'force user = testuser'.

I also tried logging to a file which contains '%U' but this give me very often the

Hi, I am deploying samba for an embedded system. The requirement is that the system should be able to mount windows share points. I believe "smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt" components are needed to do the same. I am not very clear about smbmnt though! I find that smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt are all quite huge. Around 300 to 400Kb each. I understand that Samba is capable of doing

I recently got to set up a Linux workstation in a mostly-Windows environment. I'm trying to use pam_mount from: http://bazar.conectiva.com.br/~epx/pam_mount/ to automatically mount smb shares from a Windows 2000 server at login.
