Hello, When I compile Samba version 2.0.6 in Solaris Sparc 2.6 with gcc 2.8.1, I obtain the next error: make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 303: Unexpected command seen why?

You get this kind of stuff by default with roaming profiles.( ie user.dat or ntuser.dat ) If you are referring to netscape 4 then just point the profile to the home directory (mapped to a consistent drive

Has anyone noticed that there appears to be a few problems with regards to Samba and in particular the usage of smbclient, which can do one of the following : 1) Complete & udder death of the NT networking subsystem (which requires a reboot to cure) 2) smbclient appears to lose its connection with the host being contacted and eventually needs to be killed. I'm not too sure how

Hi, in DOMAIN.txt of 1.9.18p7 there is the following comment: > [lkcl 20aug97 - after samba digest correspondance, one user found, and > another confirmed, that profiles cannot be loaded from a samba server > unless "security = user" and "encrypt passwords = yes" (see the file > ENCRYPTION.txt) or "security = server" and "password server =

It's been a while, but as I remember "Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" by Gerald Carter and Richard Sharpe has an entire chapter which walks you through this process.

Hi, Im running samba-2.0.4b. Is there a way or granting access to shares using the NT SAM (global groups)? Currently I have to add users to the unix server, then add them to a GID. I hope there is an easier way! Thanks Mark Beck

Hi. I'm sharing printers over samba, and I would like to know if there is a way for a samba server to behave like a Windows Server, that is, when I install a remote printer, it installs the respective drivers. When I connect to a samba printer, it tells me that the server has no suitable NULL printer drivers. Is there a way to configure samba to do that? Thanks --

Hi Folks: I just upgraded a samba server from 2.0.5a to 2.0.6 and all of a sudden I am getting invalid parameter errors on the windows-9x boes when they try to logon to the server. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? Samba is running on a linux 2.2.12 box and connecting to 95 and 98 boxes. It just stopped working when I upgraded. I have tried commenting out domainlogon and the

I have tried to set up Samba on my Solaris 2.5.1 with 2 interfaces (le0, le0:1 - one network card with two IP addresses). But all I could see is throught the default ports 137 and 139. In my /etc/inetd.conf, I have: netbios-ns dgram udp wait root /opt/samba/bin/nmbd nmbd -s/opt/samba/lib/kes.smb.conf netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /opt/samba/bin/smbd smbd -s/opt/samba/lib/kes.smb.conf

Hi all, We are using Samba 2.0.0beta5 on HP-UX 10.20 systems. We also use encryption and password checking on the NT 4 boxes. Everything works fine except for a few persons. When connecting to a samba share from an NT 4 client they get "unexpected network error". The contents of the last part of the samba log file are: [1999/06/01 16:04:45, 0] rpc_parse/parse_net.c:(1023) PANIC:

Hello, Does anyone have problem with spawning smbd daemon (own by root)?

Is there a way to successfully create a working Briefcase on Samba shares? When I create one in a Samba share, it has a regular folder icon with a desktop.ini file in it. Openning it reveals a plain folder rather than the usual Briefcase applet. When I create one on a Windows NT network share it works fine, but all our big filesystems are unix-based Samba shares rather than NT shares. -Ernie

Hi again folks... Just when I thought I had everything working great with samba mounts on an AIX 4.3 machine (after a lot of testing with a Win95 box), I went to do something quickly on a NT 4.0 workstation. I had some intallation programs in the shared directory that I had used to install programs on the Win95. No problem. I ran over to my boss' NT 4.0 workstation, opened the shared

Hello, I'm currently running a CVS version of SAMBA w/ PDC support from before the 2.0.x series release. It has worked well for my needs. Now I'm wanting to update my NT machines to SP5 which I assume doesn't work with my version of SAMBA (SP4 doesn't). I couldn't find the answer in the mail list archives. So....... I know 2.0.4 doesn't have "official"

I have searched the samba archive site and found a reference to the parameter "domain user map". It is also documented in the on-line documentation. Since I only had samba version 2.0.0 I decided to download the latest, which turns out to be 2.0.3. However, this version does not appear to have the parameter "domain user map" either!! I did see in an article from the

This is surely in a FAQ somewhere, but I can't find it. Latest ver. of samba on RH Linux 5.0, encrypt. passwds. My Win95 clients were happy. Then I used poledit to turn off password caching and now they are not happy. The problem is that they can't connect to their home directories. Guest shares are fine, and other shares that require passwords are fine, but when you connect to your home

Hi, How does one configure NT 4 workstation so that it will take the username/password pair typed in by the user on the console, and pass it to a PDC (in this case, Samba) for workstation/Domain login verification? Further details: The server (1.9.19, yes, I know that's alpha) is configured to be a PDC. We have several hundred Unix accounts, for which both the username and password are
