similar to: Samba on RedHat 6.1

We're getting very close now to having our RH6.1 server as we want it. Just a few anoying things left to iron out so we can trial it properly prior to going live. One of them is the "veto files" option in smb.conf. We want to stop users on Win95 clients from seeing (or deleting) the dot-files in their home shares. I've tried the above option, I've tried "hide dot

Is there any way to change the default netlogon share from using z: in logon scripts? We use a Win95 time recording software package that uses the same drive mapping and need to put it on our RH6.1 fileserver but have the obvious conflict. Bit of a problem really. Thanks. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We're almost at the stage of rolling out our new RH6.1/Samba server - one last item. We have some 60 users and 7 departments. Can I use/how do I use a logon script to log groups onto the server. I currently have 1 logon script per user, but a small change in 1 share means updating every script. Can I log them on by group ID but still map their personal shares with the %U flag so I then

My thanks to those who've helped me in the last few days. I've had some big breakthroughs and may now be able to help one or two others. My next task is to set up Samba to log users into their shares on a mapped drive that will be commonto all machines - eg. h:\. So I have 4 user shares, and a common IT share that we can all use. It works fine on my NT4 machine and logs me in on

I've set up a samba 2.0.5a / RedHat 6.1 file server. It's all going fine, but for a minor issue that is irritating rather than critical. I have directories for each dept, and then sub-dirs for users, with a dept share dir in each dept dir. I can set the valid users to individual users for the shared directories but some of the depts have 25 - 30 people and so I'd like to use groups

Hi out there... We just had a hub go down in spectacular fashion - lots of smoke, VERY bad smell, no network connection, melted plastic - very exciting stuff on a dull afternoon! But - it took out the smbd daemon and all those processes running from the affected PC's with it. Why would it do that? I couldn't get the smbd to start either by "killall -HUP inetd" or by

Can anyone help us... We're Samba ist Timers... We're trying out a Linux machine as a feasability study. We're running a copy of SuSE 6.1 Linux on a DX4/100 and trying to get Samba up asd running. As far as I can tell it's all ok, but I can't ping anything from the Linux box and Win95 / NT workstation can't see Linux. The DX4 has a 3Com509B NIC, and as for as I can tell

We have a small problem - again - only with NT4 workstation now. We are moving into the first phase of rollout of our samba server, but need to go over to a domain setup from a workgroup. If I change from a workgroup to domain name, I get a message box that says: " Unable to connect to the domain controller for this domain. Have your administrator check your computer account on the

I'm configuring Samba 2.0.3 for win95/98 clients (~20 workstations) and everything was going great for the first 10 or 12. Now when I access certain subdirectories of my share from the Win machine, everything nearly hangs. I say nearly because the mouse will still move sort of. It creeps along at about a pixel a second. It continues to get worse until I just have to cold boot the workstation.

Good Afternoon, We recently added encrypted smb passwords to our site. I just tried to add a printer to samba and it will not work. I tried to connect to \\sambahost\printer and it will not connect. All the older printers still work. I just wonder if there is an extra step I need to perform now when I add printers? Thanks for your time, Bill -- William M. Fennell Network Administrator

Hi I would like some tips on how to connect a Linux Box running samba to a Shared printer (Lexmark OprtaR+) on a Win NT machine. I dont know much about /etc/printcap configurations and the like. I have tried to print with the command: smbclient \\\\WindozeNT\\printer -N -P smb: \> put <filename> Its prints but not in any kind of proper format(ie Lanscape and diagonal printing, text

Hi there! I have a small - but essential :) - problem with the above configuration. I compiled the 1.2.2 version straight forward, with almost default settings (sysconfdir=/etc/ssh) After that I copied the sshd.pam to /etc/pam.d, generated the host-key and started sshd Feb 10 15:29:36 FW-W1A sshd[18351]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.

Hi all Thanks to David Collier-Brown for the mail on Friday - we are looking into it right now. Our setup is: RedHat 6.1, Samba 2.0.5a, on a HP LH3 NetServer - 256 MB, 5x9GB RAID 5, also running Apache and the Intranet. Cisco Catalyst 2900 (24 port) switch, and a mix of HP and NetGear hubs. PCs are connected to the hubs and then upload to the switch, the servers are straight onto the switch.

Just curious, has anyone gotten Samba to work with Windows 2000? I've mucked with it a bit. But can't seem to make it go. I haven't tried applying the NT 4.0 Registry patches yet I will probably take a look at them and see if I can get them working with Win2000. Thanks! -- Steve "We confuse you, or your money back!"

It appears I have things set up. Linux (RH6.1) box is running samba and I'm trying to access shares from my 98 box. >From Network Neighborhood I can see the linux bo listed with the other LAN boxes. If I d-click to open the smb box, I DO get a folder withthe share name in explorer. Then, if I try to open that folder (share) it asks for a password for resource \\MACHINE\SHARE I enter my

Appologise if this did make it to the list but I just subscribed and didn't see it come back... I am attmepting to install ssh/sshd on my RH6.1 Intel Box. Everything seems to be working (not quite smooth sailing - I had to resort to precompiled RPM for OpenSSL). I did however get it "working." I generated a host key as root and then changed back to joe-user. I created a key for

I am running RH6.1 on an x86 with 2.0.6 installed with an RPM. I am confused as to getting smb to start at bootup. It works fine if I start it manually (/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start). I swear, the 5.2 installation had smb start at bootup, but I can't find the difference between the two. Is the answer 1 - edit the /etc/inetd.conf file (swat needed a line uncommented) 2 - edit the
