similar to: Too many open files when using clearcase

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,

I am seeing some odd behavior on a Solaris 8 system. If I try to access a symlinked file, reduce_name is having a problem with the link >From a level 10 log: [2003/05/12 11:50:12, 3, pid=18558] lib/util.c:(387) unix_clean_name [/disk2/OC192/syee_test1.bat] [2003/05/12 11:50:12, 3, pid=18558] smbd/vfs.c:(800) reduce_name [disk2/OC192/syee_test1.bat] [/vobstore] [2003/05/12 11:50:12, 3,

Background: This situation is using Rational ClearCase in a situation with server on Solaris 10 and clients on a mixture of Windows XP and Windows 7, with access to the VOB (repository) enabled via Samba version: 3.4.9 Users are getting a consistent error with a specific ClearCase operation (Add to Source Control), which we have traced to a Samba interaction. The issue: For the interaction

Hi all -- I recently temporarily deployed an upgraded Clearcase server (7.1.2.3) on 64 bit RHEL 5.6. With it I was using Redhat's release of Samba for that version of the OS -- 3.0.33. The system has 32 GB of memory and within 12 hours, it would be down into swap. Maximum active licenses used is 36 but a more typical load is 18-25 users having a Clearcase license at once. Clearcase

Dear all, I have a SUN server running as ClearCase view-server and am using Samba for Interop. Today I updated Samba from 3.0.21c to 3.0.24 and now I cannot mount/start my views from windows!! MVFS error log on my windows client gives "{8 pid/tid 49800000c58/85fdf178} MvfsFsNotification: Unsupported filesystem type (6)" Samba logs don't show any error... Trying other

Hi all, Just a novice in this world of Samba. I got a question, probably too simple. No problem to access share file systems and mount ClearCase vobs. Log shows access granted to NT userid belonging to the right UNIX group. Then, editing a file ( using a view thru Explorer), log shows another non authenticate user called clearcase_albd trying to be validated. I guess due to

We're trying to use samba to let our PC's mount view extended pathnames used by clearcase but they show up as empty. If anyone's used samba and Clear Case (by Pure Atria) and gotten it to work I'd love to hear how. thanks, Bill -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- William H.

Hi. I am trying to configure Samba in Domain security mode. I am on a Sun box running Solaris 9 and Samba 3.0.23. A computer account for this Unix Box is configured in the AD Domain (FAFIDDOM) but I am having issues running net rpc join. I am not planning to use winbind as the samba shares that I want to create are going to be used by ClearCase (Rational Configuration Management Tool). ClearCase

For our Linux Machines (SLES 10) we are using kerberos and LDAP to authenticate against Active Directory (works perfectly) Please note that the same configuration works with Windows 2003 Server, the problem is with with Windows 2008 Server However we are experiencing problems with winbind for the file share, I see in the "log.winbind-idmap" logfile the following errors [2011/03/03

I have a SAMBA Server utilizing an LDAP backend for user authentication and it works great unless I use ClearCase. When ClearCase is used the compilation time for our code is slowed down to a crawl and the ClearCase application is rendered nearly useless. As a test fix my boss wants me to create a second SAMBA server to be used for only the ClearCase server. I don't know if this will work,

Hi there, I ran into a weird problem. 2 machines, one with an NE2000 clone (W95) card and the other with an Etherworks203 (linux with Samba). Samba: from W95 client file shares ok, home shares ok, can read and write files. Printing: I *can* configure a printer up to the printing of the testpage, that fails. At starting of W95 it succesfully connect to the printer share. Printing something fails,

Is there anyone out there successfully using Rational Clearcase with SAMBA? Was there any special changes you had to make to get it to work? We were told by Rational specifically not to use SAMBA and wanted to get the other side.

Andrew, Thank you for your suggestions. The real problem is Rational Technical support. When you pay someone 100k+ they tend to look for any excuse to deem you "unsupported". If you don't have your default group set to the clearcase user group, then technical support will decide that thats where your problem is! I am sure you know how that goes... I have solved problems

This falls under the 'getting clearcase to work with samba' category. Does anybody know if the clearcase albd server actually uses samba to access files (or anything else) on the unix side? I am having 'discussions' with rational (the clearcase people). The nt user running clearcase to access some unix-side views connects to the unix side using a set of credentials that have

Hello Samba, We tried to use samba-2.2.4-1 with Rational ClearCase and had a problem using WinBind. ClearCase requires the primary group id to be set to the clearcase users group. WinBind sets the primary group to something like DOMAIN_GROUP_RID_USERS. I am including the patch we made to samba-2.2.4 to get things working. I have added two new smb.conf options: winbind primary group //

We are having some problems in our company's test group that did not exist when our Clearcase 2003.06 server existed on a Solaris 8 machine. Now we are running on RHEL 5.2 with Clearcase 7.0.1.3 with Samba 3.0.28 (despite the fact that IBM has only blessed up to 3.0.24) and running into some file locking issues with some scripts our test group runs. I am hoping that someone might have some

Gerald, No worries. This patch is required if your using Rational ClearCase and you don't want everyone to have access to it. It's to fix a brokenness (IMO) within ClearCase, and maybe other programs. Our windows primary group has 10k+ users... I will shoot it off to Rational, so they can provide it to there customers. I was hoping it could be applied to the main tree so I could just

[Note to moderator, I couldn't remember which email account I subscribed to this list from. Sorry...] Hi All, Have any of you seen this little darling of an error on writing to a file? The sequence of events goes something like this: 1) File is opened for reading on a Samba server with oplocks disabled. Open request is requesting a batch oplock. 2) File open SUCCEEDS. (Should this have

Hi Can somebody help me concerning this problm with samba. I am using samba 2.0.7 to link clearcase DB files on server UNIX with NT clearcase clients. We have upgraded clients from winNT4.0 to win2000 . Now we have many trouble like : PC stuck performance very slow file not found ( it exists!) etc... I saw in the samba log file of users the message as follow: cbc0794634 (137.x.x.x) connect to

Should I be concerned about getting the [1998/12/18 07:15:07, 0] lib/doscalls.c:dos_GetWd(405) Very strange, couldn't stat "." error in the logs? I've noticed that it is occuring in some of the log files for users and not in others. I've looked in the source as to where this is occuring and added a path=%s\n",path to the DEBUG line to maybe see which UNIX directory
