Hi, I want to use PXELINUX to load a DOS disk image which I currently use for Win2K/XP unattended installs. I want to move away from reliance on specific NDIS2 drivers and use the 3Com UNDIS3C driver instead. I have used this successfully to start the MSClient, but the problem is that the UNDI and PXE layer take about 90K of base memory, which means that WINNT.EXE has insufficent memory to run

Hello Everyone, I recently installed a MSCLIENT machine each time it writes to my samba 2.04b share it produces all uppercase filenames. Is the best way to handle this with "preserve case = yes/no" controls if new files are created with the case that the client passes, or if they are forced to be the "default" case. Default Yes. "short preserve case = yes/no"

I'm running Samba 2.2.3 with winbind for authentication. Much to my surprise, I found I had a need to connect an MS-DOS system to the network. I'm using MSCLIENT to do so. I can successfully log into the domain and map drives on Windows NT servers, but I'm having trouble mapping Samba shares. Examining the log shows that the DOS machine is apparently trying to connect with a username

Hi all Please CC me any replies. I am currently running samba 2.2.8a under Slackware 8.1 (kernel 2.4.18) to provide fileserver services to a number of windows 2000 boxes via a single "resources" share. One of the things stored in this share is a collection of Protel libraries used in electronic circuit design. The problem is that protel implements its own access control mechanism for

Hello Peter I know very little (currently) about the BIOS interfaces/APIs available at boot time except that most of them are buggy to some extent. However, I have had an idea regarding another way to boot Linux and wanted to run it past you. As you'd be aware, many of the distributions now require multiple floppies to hold their initial root fs to be used during installation. I was

Subject: Wildcard '*.' matches inproper files (for SAMBA DOS clients) The problem does not appear when using W9x/NT clients.

Hi.. Can anybody help me.. here is my problem: I have a little LAN with a Samba Box (It's my PDC), and some DOS PCs, running my core bussiness application (Foxpro 2.6) All the Boxes are Intel 440BX2 whit Celeron 600MHZ, HD 10GB Maxtor 5400RMP, 64MB RAM and 3Com 905B Nic.

Hi everyone, Here is the problem: I have a server running Red Hat 5.2 and Samba-2.0.4 as file server for about 20 diskless machines with MSClient boot disks (created with NT server SP3). The server shares a dir with a Clipper/DBF database for those clients and the EXE file is in a NT machine. For weeks I've been trying to put the things together but the clients always break

Hi All, Here's an interesting one... I need to be able to connect smbclient on a linux machine to a dos based machine, which is running MSCLIENT and the WG1049 patch. I can browse to the machine and see all the files from Network Neighbourhood in Windows, but if I try and go in with: smbclient \\GAUGE1\C, or even just smbclient -L GAUGE1 all I get is: Added interface ip=10.0.1.1

Has anybody got some experience with connecting machines running Windows3.1 or WfWG (3.11) to Samba? We would like to run a small lab network with user accounts and a shared printer off the samba box. Samba is running fine and there's no problem to connect to it from the Win95/WinNT machines... Any help appreciated. Frank Wornle, Glasgow Caledonian University Dept. of Engineering

I am using memdisk to remotely flash the BIOS and other firmware. It works well for most flash programs. After the flash I need to initialize the NIC to send a signal to my management server that the flash is complete. I am curious as to how others have solved this problem. Thanks.

Thanks to several very helpful souls on this list we have been able to replace ndis2 NIC drivers and boot successfully in DOS, map a Samba drive ... permitting us to use a DOS Ghost to build lab systems. The guy who figured this stuff out last year has left the college and I don't understand what protocols, or clients he used to support a DOS-Samba connection. (I'ld be lost if I had to

Hi all, I'm trying to work out how to boot DOS on a diskless PC, and I've come to a bit of a stumbling block with loading IPX support (which is extremely important, since most DOS games use IPX for network play ;-)) So far thanks to PXELinux and Memdisk I've gotten a DOS floppy image booting successfully, but I'm stuck trying to get IPX support. Admittedly I don't have much

For those of you running SuSE 9.1, I do not recommend upgrading to 9.2 at this time. Refer to http://shorewall.net/myfiles.htm for information on my configuration: a) On Ursa: 1) After the upgrade, both of the NICs were recognized as "configured" in YAST yet neither of them would start; ifup claimed that no configuration could be found for either interface. Only got them running

Hello List! I got a small (50mbits or so) application layer ddos attack against a few name servers (thousands of IPs sending lots of bogus A record requests - weird) - one of the name servers was behind a shorewall firewall. That firewall was running a 2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 kernel and shorewall-4.4.11.1-1. I noticed that the shorewall host had ksoftirqd using 100% of the CPU during the

I've been looking over icecast2 and notice that it's all ogg. Are there plans for mp3 support in it, or will that be left to icecast1? I love ogg, but still have a sizeable set of mp3's from before I found it. Is it possible to have a stream of varying formats where songs could be either mp3 or ogg and the listening program uses the appropriate plugin/player to handle decoding, or

Hello, I read some of your latest articles depending on DOS and Samba. You always mentioned TCP/IP 32, LANMANAGER-Client from IBM and this mysterios MS Client 3.0. What I would like to know is, if there is a MS-DOS IP stack available, which could use a WINS-server and connect to Samba using NETBEUI over IP ??? I use TCP/IP 32 at the moment for my old windows-clients. Problem is, I have some

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul
