similar to: server allows users as non-guest with bad password

Hi all, sorry if this has been asked before, but as far as I could see there's no similar entry in the archive. I'm using version 2.2.7a on a HP machine running HP-UX 11.11. The binaries have been created for PA-RISC 2.0 supporting 64Bit mode. The SAMBA has been configured to use securty = server. Password servers has been 'defined'. For a certain user (Service account used to

I've seen error messages about this since we installed 1.9.18p10 of samba, so I went looking in the code for the context. Here (from password.c) is the context: /* * Attempt a session setup with a totally incorrect password. * If this succeeds with the guest bit *NOT* set then the password * server is broken and is not correctly setting the guest bit. We

We are seeing erratic behaviour from Samba for connecting Unix drives to an NT terminal Server. Samba version 2.0.6 Solaris 2.6 NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition with service pack 4 running WinCenter NIS Logon Utility. The NT server is not part of a domain and uses the WinCenter Logon Utility to authenticate username and passwords from my Unix NIS server. Samba is set up for server level

I have a dataframe from an On-Board Survey with weights ("expwgt") and variables for up to 8 used lines: VEH1 through VEH8. The lines are labeled "MT-..1" through "MT-902". I want to know how many transfers there are between MT-802 and MT-901. That is, when one of them is VEHx and the other is VEHx+1 or VEHx-1 E.g. {VEH1 = MT-802 AND VEH2 = MT-901 } plus {VEH2 =

I'm attempting to get a Linux box to authenticate users from NT. I think it's possible by writing a PAM module (not hard) and using part of Samba's source to verify the password on the NT server. I'm getting pretty bogged down trying to work out how to do this - it seems like it should be simple - just take the password and username and ask the NT server if it's correct. If

I needed to compute a complicated cross tabulation to show weighted means and standard deviations and the only method I could get that worked uses a series of nested for next loops. I know that there must be a better way to do so, but could use some assistance pointing the way. Here is my working, but inefficient script: library(Hmisc) rm(list=ls()) load('NHTS.Rdata') day.wt <-

Well after I tried it the ./configure on all machines ( 4 total) I ran a few other compiles of other programs and figured out what was missing. Evidently the RH62 kernel "forgets" to put a symlink from /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386 --> asm. I put that in and presto ./configure creates the Makefile and I am compiling 2.0.7Pre2 as we speak. What keyed this was trying a kernel compile,

Hi guys.. I have a very strange problem with Samba version 2.0.5a and Q&A Ver 5.0 for DOS (eeek.. I know.. Symantec stopped supporting it 2 yrs ago) The error i get is: ! Problem ! System error, please try again (see Appendix C). Press Esc to cancel. Ref#:04EC It seems to be related to drive size/samba/fstype or something.. The share that I am mapping the clients to (win95 and win 311)

Hi guys, I hope I've reached the correct mailinglist. I'm experiencing a problem with smbfs. You can mount shares, but after a while, the connection is broken and all sorts of strange stuff happens. I've got a share called /mnt/ntshare which remotely mounts an NT host: [arnow@foo /mnt]$ ls ls: ntshare: Input/output error cdrom/ floppy/ [arnow@foo /mnt]$ [arnow@foo /mnt]$ dmesg |

Hi I made some work using samba 2.0.6. I use large directory, more than 10000 file. The time to have a list from window NT is very big 2Minuts. I spy a little the dialog and I see that the negociation for exange files name is limited to 170 filenames and a buffer to 16387 octets. Do you know a way to change this ? I tryed without result, max xmit = 60000 packet size= 60000

I am using a samba server for a large number of files. It is a MS VSS database which splits it's data into a-z directories and generally in each directory I have about 30,000 files. When trying to delete files from the VSS client, the file deletion process is very slow, taking around 15 seconds per file. What is strange is that the processor loading is only at %60 during this, the rest is in

I have a Windows 2K SP2 terminal server and a Samba 2.2.7a server. The Samba server uses security=server with the 2K terminal server as the password server. Users log in to the terminal server and attempt to access (always the same) share on the Samba box. When there are no sessions open to the Samba server the connection from the terminal server always works; subsequent connections (with

Hi Toni, This error is the result of a test that samba does in the module "server_validate", (in password.c) to check the password server for a bug where NT 4 (some versions) would not correctly set the guest bit. There is currently no smb.conf parameter to allow you to control this behavior, so to change it , you would need to actually hack the password.c module to disable it. Not

Hello, I have 8 Samba servers with 300 clients here running on Sun and Linux machines with GREAT performance. Now in one departement i installed samba 2.0.6 on one 40K$ IBM F50 with AIX 4.3.2, 2xCPU, 256MB RAM, 100FDX, extern RAID 5 Tower . Performance is really very, very BAD. I tried already everything, but this IBM box with samba is just very SLOW. Browsing through directories, logging, copying

hi, I tried to make a win95 machine to perform a domain-logon to an NT server, which is in a diferent subnet, behind a linux-router. on this linux-router, I also installed samba. I noticed in log.nmbd, that the client always queries for a "0x1c" type, but never gets a response from nmbd. Thus , I "hacked" the "wins.dat" file, and restartet nmbd: HBLADOMAIN#1e

Please for give me if this gets a bit long. I am presently in the process of moving my company's file server from Windows NT 4.0 over to Linux with SAMBA and the lack of ACL support in the ext2 filesystem is making things very difficult to design. To clarify I am NOT writing about Samba's support for NT ACL's on NTFS. I am writing to possibly get some tips for getting around the lack

Hello, I have 20 Solaris 2.6-servers with NIS+ in different cities and countries and a lot of NT4 servers in different domains and I use samba with nis+ support on the Solaris-enviroment to let the NT-users access their unix-home-directories. The NT-clients has to send their passwords in "clear-text" to access their directories. Their NT-username is the same as their Unix-username (the

Hi all, using samba 2.2.5; security=server connecting as user1 (user logged in on PC) works (12:28:55), disconnecting and connecting as another user2 (not the user logged in on PC) works too (12:30:22), but disconnecting and connecting again as user1 (user logged in on PC) fails (12:34:29) as well as user2 (12:38:19). It seems it works only once and never again after one time logged in as user2 ?

Hi, I have a question about the usage of eval(). Wonder if any experienced user can help me out of it. I use eval() in the following function: semireg.pwl <- function(coef.s=rnorm(1),coef.a=rnorm(1),knots.pos=knots.x,knots.ini.val=knots.val){ knotn <- length(knots.pos) def.par.env <- sys.frame(1) print(def.par.env) print(environment(coef.s)) tg <- eval( (parse(text=
