similar to: Problems with the 2.0.6 release ....

A couple of days ago I posted a problem I was having with the smbapasswd command for users (not root). Here is the original post: I have Samba installed on a HP-UX 11.00 system using NIS for UID/password resolution. The smbpasswd file hasbeen initilized and as root I can add a user's password and the user can "attach" the "share". But when the user tries to do the

Hi ! I got a problem with connection of users at a connection to smbd. It seems that the authentication is ok and the user accepted and existing. And for test I just connect to the homes. I get the following log error. lib/sec_.c:assert_gid(70) Failed to set gid priviliges to (-1,100) now set to (0,0) uid (0,0) lib/util.c:smb_panic(2456) PANIC: failed to set gid Does anybody know what that

I previously had an older version of Samba installed with the following smb.conf: ; Make sure and restart the server after making changes to this file, ex: ; /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb stop ; /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start [global] ; Uncomment this if you want a guest account guest account = nobody log file = /var/log/samba-log.%m lock directory = /var/lock/samba share modes = yes

Thank you very much!! I have tried configure downloaded source with # ./configure --with-user=_ups --with-group=_ups --with-statepath=/var/db/nut/ and then build driver and copy again. but this doesn't help (driver pid still in the /var/state/ups). Maybe I must add more arguments to change driver's pid location, but I did next, I changed this argument in openbsd ports: # pkg_delete nut #

Is there any known problem with accountsservice-0.6.35-12 with NFS users? After logging in via lightdm they are not "remembered" and there is no entry created to /var/lib/AccountsService/users Downgrading to accountsservice-0.6.35-9 resolved that issue Gerhard Schneider -- Gerhard Schneider Institute of Lightweight Design and e-Mail: gs at ilsb.tuwien.ac.at Structural

Many people seem to wait for the announcement of CentOS 6.0, so I want to share some test results I did with SL 6.0.. The actual 6.0 kernel can NOT allocate tape buffers when the server is heavily loaded at least on some LSILogic hardware. There is a big problem of slab buffer increase that can cause reboot/freeze of the server under load. Reported by many and verified by me :-( So perhaps

Are there any known race conditions with 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 x86_64 and NFS4? Today a user managed to shut down two identical Intel servers by copying a simple text file via NFS4. Reverting back to 17.1 made the error disappear. On other non-identical hardware the error was not reproducible (so it must be a combination of hardware and this special kernel revision). Anybody interested in a

Do CentOS 5.4 users still have to use the RedHat preliminary kernels (http://people.redhat.com/jlayton/) for getting a NFSv4 safe kernel or have the patches been incorporated into CentosPlus kernels? Or is kernel-2.6.18-164.3.1.el5 somewhere in the queue? Thanks in advance! GS -- Gerhard Schneider Institute of Lightweight Design and e-Mail: gs at ilsb.tuwien.ac.at Structural

Are there any 64bit CentOS5 kernels available that are immune against the exploit mentioned in the subject? Turning off 32bit support is no option to me..

After a crash I tried wget http://debuginfo.centos.org/5/x86_64/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.x86_64.rpm as usual. But for 32.1 there is no kernel-debuginfo. Is there any reason for that?

An user is using 2 displays and configured Gnome to "Static Workspaces only on primary display on" using gnome-tweak-tool Till 7.2 it was working as expected. After upgrading to 7.3 the content on the primary screen gets mirrored to all workspaces. When switching to "Static Workspaces only on primary display off" everything is working as expected on 7.3, too. Any ideas?

After upgrading approx. 50 machines to 7.4 we discovered a reproducible SegFault of one of our commercial programs we use. This SegFault does not occur on CentOS 7.3 and it occurs only on Xeon E3-1230 V3, Xeon E5-2690 and Xeon E5-2697 v2. It does NOT occur on Xeon E5-2697 v3 and Xeon E3-1231 v3, AMD Ryzen and older Core I7-9xx. It is not dependent of the kernel, we switched back to an CentOS

Today we tried to update machines w/ Core2 Duo E6750 from 3.10.0-693.11.1.el7.centos.plus to 3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.centos.plus and the machines did not boot due to a kernel panic. Before we dig any further I wanted to know if the 11.6 kernel has been tested on old hardware, too, or if the problem is well known but not documented (yet). Thank you in advance!

Hello, I've compiled Samba 3.0.4 with Heimdal 0.6.2 and all of the other trimmings to join and ADS tree, which I have successfully done. Winbind correctly pulls all of the username and group information from the ADS tree and all is good. However... I seem to be running into a wall with the wonderful Solaris 8 character username / groupname limit. Usernames with spaces or names longer than

Hi, Iam trying to setup Samba version 3.2.3 on Redhat (RHEL5) server to use Active Directory for authentication. I followed the instructions from article in following website: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/magazine/dd228986.aspx Setup Winbind + Samba + Kerberos and it seems to work fine. I can see the users in Active Directory through winbind as well as authenticate users using NTLM
