Hi, I've seeing the following error messages recorded in logwatch against samba in two FC6 XA-64 systems with samba 3.0.24-7. lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(603) ERROR: string overflow by 1 (24 - 23) in safe_strcpy The main share in use on the first machine is via the guest account with Vista and XP clients, the other has more conventional shares with the Vista PC's as domain members

Hi Jerry et al, I'm using SAMBA 3.0.0 on Solaris 9, it looks very cute, unfortunately I can not set the permissions on the printers (I can as an admin add a user etc. but all changes are lost after applying):-( Is this somehow related to the error entries in the log file: [2003/11/17 14:45:31, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(577) ERROR: NULL dest in safe_strcpy If so will it be fixed in

Hello All, Our samba server rarely shows up follwing message in syslog. When this message appears, CPU average will be pretty high. winbindd[9585]: [2007/11/28 15:55:02, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(659) winbindd[9585]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (256 - 255) in safe_strcpy [01092-6821 winbindd[9585]: S-1-5] Hardware: Dell PowerEdge 2950 OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES4 Update 4

Hi! We have a lot of logfiles showing "zfl04.log.3: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (24 - 23) in safe_strcpy [organisation#rektorat#vrlehre#qe-eval]" I found a reported bug producing this output within older Samba versions than 3.0.4 . But we use version 3.0.10 and no mangling method set within smb.conf . Therefore it should be the defaultvalue hash2 which doesn't have this flaw.

I'm new to SAMBA and to Linux. Am trying to replace windows file and print servers with RedHat9. I set up the server and installed Samba 3.0.0. I had everything running fine for two weeks(file and print sharing). Yesterday I must have tweaked something, because now I cannot print! I can connect to the printer via Network Neighborhood, but print jobs do not make it to the printer. I still

Hello, I'm using samba 3.0.4 (on RHL9) as a W2k3 domain member in an ADS realm. For printing I'm using CUPS of RHL9. The XP clients get the CUPS printers (CUPS redirects the printjob to the JetDirect card of the printer) and the appropriate PCL drivers installed via the "Point 'n Print" mechanism. The clients get their printers installed via de AD login script and the there

I recently upgraded both of my samba servers (mirrors of each other) to 3.0.4, my log files now fill with the following messages (hundred lines per day): Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24 13:55:33, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(602) Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (9 - 8) in safe_strcpy [LIBRA~V$.DOC] Jun 24 14:20:34 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24

Hi, I've got a problem with a 2.2.2 samba server. It has, a number of times, recorded the following lines for a short period of time of 10 seconds, and then not again for days. Has anyone seen these before? It all appears to be random characters. It has only happened from 2 machines out of 30 or so.

Hello, I run samba 3.0.4 on a RHL9 server. Samba is a domain member of a W2k3 ADS and I use CUPS as printing mechanism; therefore Samba is compiled with Kerberos 1.3.1-7 and cups-devel. 3.0.4 runs pretty good, printing via CUPS runs well too, only the following messages I see constantly (this flooding my logs) while using 3.0.4: winbindd.log ========= [2004/07/27 16:07:04, 1]

Windows 98 client cannot print via samba to PrintPro printer "exported" via Cups/PrintPro on PrintPro/Samba server. "Exporting" with Cups on server node allows print drivers to be downloaded to Windows clients from the server. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi, we've upgraded recently from samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b. Since then, we've getting these error messages from winbindd: Jul 17 12:00:23 cvk027 winbindd[20772]: [2007/07/17 12:00:23, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(659) The volume of these messages is very high, many times together with unreadable character garbage. Is there any way to correct or suppress these messages? Our

I recently upgraded to 18p8 from 16p11 and found that smbclient now needed a -W in order to connect properly to our domain (which was not the name supplied with the -DWORKGROUP= from the make). Turns out that clientutil.c always uses the value specified by the WORKGROUP macro and never calls lp_workgroup() to get the value specified in the smb.conf file, unless WORKGROUP is "".
