similar to: Samba2.0.6 tgz compile questions.

Is it better to start Samba using in initd, or to use the script, much like the one provided by SuSE. ?? so far I have used the script, but I don't like the fact of having to start samba manually. I would much prefer to see it run as a service. just to confirm all it really involves is starting smbd and nmbd Rowan [TSS] Gerber Scientific Products http://www.gspinc.com

RPMS's rebuilt or upstream one's used Hi I got a cleanly reinstalled 4.2 workstation. However i still needed to build the following SRPMS from Mandriva/Fedora :- - Chkrootkit - Logcheck - Tripwire - Xboard & Gnuchess - Rkhunter I needed to use the upstream versions of :- - OpenOffice.org 2.0.1 - RealPlayer Gold - Acrobat Reader I needed to tweak Bind chroot to log queries and

I am attempting to build from a src.rpm (knowing very little about rpm at all) and the spec file notes that the architecture should be set on the command line: > # platform defines - set one below or define the build_xxx on the command line Now. My question is this, how does one do this using rpmbuild? The syntax rpmbuild --target centos4 package.src.rpm seemingly has no effect.

Dear mailing-list! I have Samba 2.0.6 on a Redhat 6.1 linux box. How can I make samba use the /etc/shadow file for authenticating users? Reading the archives I assumed there should be a compile-time option I should set, but I found no such option.

I remember a while back seeing someone mention a device that would integrate an apple with a pcnetwork. basically it was a small box that had a samba server built in. you would connect your mac to it with the other side connecting to the hub of a pcnetwork. It would intern allow Apple shares to be viewed in network neighborhood, and macs to mount pc shares./ does this ring a bell with anyone.

Hi A search of google failed to show any prebuilt rpms for sshfs and fuse. I do see that fuse support is in 2.6.14 kernel which isn't a whole lot of help. Before I dive headlong into this has anyone successfully built fuse/sshfs against Centos 4.4. If so would you share your experience? Thanks Daveh

I just set up my samba box as a pdc on small (4) network that I have at home. whenever I specify user shares on my 98 client it is unable to get the user list from the Samba. I am able to log on without problem as multiple users. I also notice that when I logon on my 98 client it copies config files every time I logon. I imagine that I may not have the necessary shares setup. I am running

Hi Folks, I am running Samba 2.0.6 on Solaris 2.6 and I have a bunch of write errors showing up in my log.smb file.

I have been having some problems recompiling the src.rpm for samba 2.0.5a samba-2.0.5a-0.src.rpm I used the command rpm --recompile samba-2.0.5a-0.src.rpm. But nothing apparent happens. Any one have any ideas ? Rowan [TSS] Gerber Scientific Products http://www.gspinc.com

Hi, I have installed SAMBA 2.0.6 on Slackware 7.0.After minor troubles with differences of SAMBA 2.0.5a package the SAMBA itself seems to work O.K. But SWAT doesn't work at all. After authentication in web browser IE5.0 I only get an error message. As to /etc/inetd.conf I have changed the line for swat properly. Can someone help me ?

Hi, I'm seeing problems with an NT box accessing Samba 2.0.6 running on NetBSD 1.3F. The exact same setup accessing Samba 2.0.5a running on NetBSD 1.4 works just fine. Specifically, I have one of the shares mapped to a drive letter on the NT box and when I use NTEmacs to open a file on the share, it takes upwards of a 60 seconds to open the file. During this time, the smbd process

ok I finally got 2.0.6 up and running, much thanks to those who helped. currently I have it set up on a 166, with a 2gig drive running suse6.0 with kernel version 2.0.36. I am using an NT PDC, with samba authenticating via the server. a few things. For some reason periodically when I browse the server my home directory will not show up. now that i think I may be logging in as guest but why

Hello everyone, I have another question related to a legacy schema I am working with. Do dynamic finders work with legacy schemas in general? The schema I am working with uses hungarian prefixes for column names. For example fOpen is 0 if a bug is closed and 1 if it is open (type smallint). When I try @bugs = Bug.find_all_by_fOpen(1), I get the following exception: undefined method

I guess I've been lucky. My Red Hat server I built in 2003 finally gave up the ghost yesterday. Fifteen years with almost zero problems running 7x24. Now I'm trying to build a basic server to host my e-mail using CentOS 7, Sendmail and Dovecot. Server is running great as are Sendmail and Dovecot but Dovecot only allows connections from the CentOS 127.0.0.1. I can telnet localhost pop3

dear redhat, i examined a friend's system today, to help him configure it. assuming that he just "installed" from scratch the samba package, it appears that you have provided a default smb.conf file for redhat 6.1 that puts samba private configuration files in /etc. the suggested options, for example show "smbpasswd file = /etc/smbpasswd". this is REALLY bad. 1) you

Hi, I'd like to check the existance of a NOT NULL constraint for a given attribute using ActiveRecord. Is this possible or do I have to painstakingly query the information_schema myself?

Hi All, I saw spurious mentions on a few blogs of a DVD being made available of RailsConf presentations. However none seemed to have a who/what/when/where attached to them, thus might just be pure speculation. Anyone know of an official source/effort being made for a DVD? Would be well keen for copy if one is to be made available.... Cheers Rowan --- http://raili.st/ -------------- next part

Hi, I have recently installed R on my mac and am trying to install R commander. When I type: install.packages("Rcmdr",dependencies=TRUE) the following message appears I have also tried installing commander via the package installer window. When I do this a large number of error messages (over 50) appear. They are mainly saying that certain dependencies are not available, or that they

/var/mail is a symlink to /var/spool/mail I tried both, neither works. I just wiped out the server, reinstalled from scratch this time I selected e-mail server while selecting packages after specifying GUI-server on the CentOS install. I had previously installed Dovecot after the initial server build. This time Dovecot was installed and active at boot but still can't find my mail in
