It has been my experience that only the owner of the file and root change change ACLS on that file. Since you've stated that Administrator IS the owner, maybe there's something else. Are you getting any errors ? Who is the owner of the diretory that the folder resides in. Is the Administrator given write permissions at the share level? My work-around for modifying ACL's was to

Debian Woody with security updates Linux kernel 2.2.25 Samba 3.0.0 libc6 2.2.5 The problem I have is with a windows application that uses samba. This application is crucial for the organization, so if this is not fixed, and soon, we will have to ditch Samba and move to a windows server. I *really* don't want to do this, as Samba has been working so well for years now and billg is rich enough

Hi all, I've got kind of strange setup, wherein all of my data is on a big NFS server (RH linux 8.0 running the 2.4.18 kernel and nfs-utils 1.0.1-2.80) and my Samba 3.0.0 PDC server (RH linux 7.3 w/ 2.4.18 kernel, nfs-utils 0.3.3-6.73) mounts the NFS export with the following options: rw,vers=3,wsize=8192,rsize=8192,hard,intr This mounted partition is then re-exported to the windows users

Hello, I have a problem with samba 3.0.26a (from ports) on FreeBSD (amd64, SMP, 6.2 RELEASE). My log.smbd looks like below: --- samba starts normally: [2007/11/24 16:55:22, 0] smbd/server.c:main(944) smbd version 3.0.26a started.

There seems to be a few people having this problem, but not much response. I've dug into the logs, and while I don't know exactly what I am looking at, I think I may have found something that may make sense to someone. A short recap. Samba was working fine, until I did a Debian security update, which upgraded my Samba to 2.2.8a. Now, I can create files on a mounted Samba share in a

Hi, I've a really big problem with my SAMBA 4.1.11 production server.... it doesn't want to start smbd anymore.... nmbd starts fine but not smbd. I've tried to start smbd in interactive mode to see what's happened : # /srv/progs/samba4/sbin/smbd -i -d9 produce a lot of lines about configuration (all fine), some last lines are : added interface lo ip=::1

Hi! Just another question... I've an Samba-PDC (2.2.5 --with-ldapsam) - and of course a BDC (at least I hope that I get this running soon) with an LDAP-backend (users/machins/groups). If I want to create something like a "Subdomain" with some - but not all - of the LDAP-users, can this be done, and if how? for example if we have a domain EDU (for educational users - students

I'm looking at migrating a small Netware 3.12 server to a Linux box with samba for a small office. They use a DOS program called `ACCPAC' to do their accounting; both the program and it's data reside on different exported volumes on the netware system. I set up a linux box (for testing- deployment later, maybe) to make sure the program would run with samba before going ahead and just

Hello, I've been working with a xBase database (similar to dBase) in a multiuser application. There are like 40 users working on the database on the same time reading and like 10 writing information. Sometimes the CDX files (Index Files) get corrupted and is it's necessary to pack the tables (rebuild the indexes). I have notice using the smbstatus -B command the following Pid

I think that is fair to say about my old accounts where names and IDs do not match. But the crazy thing is it is those accounts which work fine and it is the new accounts where I did make the names and IDs match where things do not work! I am still confused about the supplemental groups thing. Are you saying Samba will not support a mode where 'security = ads' for authentication against

I'm attempting to install Abacus Law (v13) under Samba and Linux. Install completes, and I get as far as a single user successfully logged in, but the 2nd user is nothing but trouble. Samba logs show nothing unusual to my semi-trained eye, but locking code or timing is a likely suspect. Technical support is of no help as they haven't tested (and therefore don't support) the

Hi all, I use this command on my servers to test locally that Samba is alive and well: smbcontrol smbd ping However, it suddenly stop working on one of the several identical servers, and I cannot figure out why. ping command says "no replies received", while log.smbd says that it received a ping message, but cannot reply because permission is denied. Which permission? $ sudo

from the man page. I've never tried veto oplocks.

Dear all, I'm importing some data (with read.table, file ".txt") but I have some problem: R truncates my numeric data at 2 digits during the importation... It's the first time that I see that. Thanks for an answer. David

Hi All, Okay, SAMBA officially doesn't like me or something. Here's the poop: - Brand-new FreeBSD 4.7 box - SAMBA 2.2.6pre2 (built from the ports tree) - I have dual NICs, one on 192.168.1 (students) the other on 192.168.2 (staff) - I need two operational workgroups "STUDENTS" & "STAFF" each tied to their own interface. - This machine needs to do all the
