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

After fighting with trying to rebuiled my src.rpm file. I decided to use a plain old fashion compile from the tar files. which worked ok, no settings changed. at about 11pm last night I finished and noticed a few things that made me a bit uneasy. 1) all the Samba bin files were installed in /usr/local/samba/.. 2) no smb.conf file was created. I used ./configure, make , make install when I

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.

I've been going thru conniptions trying to set a Windows 98 client for user level access. I think part of the problem is I have insufficient info, in spite of reading everything I can get my hands on. My server is RH 6.0 with Samba 2.0.5a compiled from samba.org source in the default configuration. I have it set up as a working W9x login server, with workgroup= being the same workgroup as the

Hi Guys, I'm having some problems with my domain, I'm running Samba at a Debian Box as PDC for a Win NT Workstation Lab, a Win95 Lab and some W98 boxes. I also run Samba in Solaris 2.6 , the both work just fine, but I can't share printers, disks, or files, since I can't see the users list. (this happens with the both: Solaris'Samba and the Debian's Samba). If I try to

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 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

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

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

Hello, I have an NFS server with all our user's home directories on a server that does not support SMB. I wish to mount this directory on a second system and re-export it via samba so that users can access their unix home directories from their windows boxes. My samba server is running CentOS 5.0, and I have the the home directories mounted at /home/na, and there is no rootsquash, so the

Greetings, I don't know how common an issue this is as I haven't found much in the list archives that was helpful to me, so I'm hoping for some pointers. FYI, we have samba 2.3.3a-6 running on the 2.4.18-10 kernel. There seems to be an issue with smbfs mounts at times where connectivity may be lost (e.g. Win share becomes unavailable) causing local processes such as lsof or ps,

I have the default installation of samba (2.0.5) that came with Caldera OL 2.3, but it doesn't seem to be starting up properly, nor is SWAT working. When I run the script 'samba start', I get the message "Starting samba: smbd nmbd", but when I check the running processes, only nmbd shows up. Running smbstatus gives me the message "Couldn't open status file

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong. There is no

what is the format of this file? what is the best way to access it w/o the smbstatus program? IE: with perl -sv

Hi all, I would like to be able to pause a printer shared via Samba from Windows 95/NT workstation. Can it be done? Thanks, Walter Dorciak.

Using Samba 2.2.5 on FreeBSD 4.5. We have a file share used by several people working on common projects. The share is set up with force group = cad create mask = 0774 force create mode = 0774 directory mask = 0775 force directory mode = 0775 so that everyone can create/modify any file in the share. The new VFS recycle bin, however, sets the file

I downloaded nilo and oskit from www.nilo.org. Added pcnet32.c linux-2.0.39 driver to oskit. Compiled nilo with pcnet32 and produced boot floppy image. Use it inside vmware vm. My aim is to be able to test pxelinux using vmware+nilo and not a real machine. Floppy starts, detects nic, receives ip from dhcp server, requests boot image to tftpd-hpa, then crashes when talking to tftp. Is

Hello, I am testing Samba 3.0.0 on a Tru64Unix v 5.1b. I compile it with gcc et gnumake. I am able to start it and I can see a share.
