similar to: Samba disk share with NT4

hello, I know this topic has already been discused, and I remember that the final word was the this issue would be fixed in 2.0.6. I'm running a fresh install of Mandrake 7.0 with kernel 2.2.14-15mdksecure with samba 2.0.6 installed. I can smbmount a share on my NT4 server without problem. the connection is establised and everything works fine: Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address

Hello! I tried to get some help from the IRC before, but the problem seems to be too complicated to discuss it there. PLEASE, be so kind and help me solving this problem, I stuck and I must get this working as quick as possible. Here an overview and some details: In one well protected LAN (so I have no need to encrypt passwords at all, which simplifies user management on servers in turn because

Hi, I'm going to scream. I have a "dell-installed" red hat 7.2 build and I have been attempting to get it to join my NT4.0 domain with samba... after getting past the old version of samba that shipped with it and updating to the latest samba from the samba web site, i still can't join my domain.... Here's the kicker: I CAN JOIN a test domain I set up a few weeks ago, NT4.0

Hi, I'm in the process of setting up a backup server for a somewhat antiquated NT4 server. Backup server is CentOS-4 (~ RHEL-4), kernel-2.6.9-11.EL, samba-client-3.0.10-1.4E, rsync-2.6.3-1, LANG=en_US.UTF-8. NT4 shares are mounted on the server and rsynced to local disk. This setup is working pretty well, however on the NT box there are some files with names containing odd characters like

I brought this up some time ago at comp.protcols.smb, which showed that others have run into the same problem, but so far I haven't found a solution anywhere. The problem is that since Y2K, I haven't been able to browse the auto homes share [homes] with Win NT4 (details below). Does anybody have any idea what the cause of this problem is, and better yet, how to fix it? Thanks, -- Alex

Morning folks, Need some Help. I have a Solaris 2.5.1 system that runs Samba as simple shares but I want to attach it to an NT4 domain and use Winbind for NT authentication. But I get a broken pipe error when I run " smbpasswd -j thinktank -r testerpdc -U tester -D4". With the debug level set to 4 everything looks good until it connects to the pdc on port 445 then i get the broken

Having trouble connecting to a share on a windows machine from a linux machine. I have been using samba for years to map from linux to windows, but no luck the other way around. I've read lots of how-to's but none of them work and don't even mention the problem I'm having. I always get access denied errors. Tried the samba troubleshooting guide which does talk about access errors,

Hi all, I use a local dovecot server which is synchronized with my two imap accounts using OfflineIMAP. This works very nice and is highly usable. But one thing I'd like to improve is the slow IMAP search. When I search for a string in the subjects of all messages in a mailbox using some mail client, dovecot seems to grep all the messages in there. Is there a way to let dovecot index more

I have been told that Samba automatically updates smbpasswd file when a corresponding client changes their password on NT, and that this works, even though there is no domain or PDC. my problem is that this is not happening for me. Nothing seems to happen on Samba when NT password is changed. I have Samba 2.0.6 running on Solaris 7 serving files and printers to NT4 clients in a peer to peer

Hello, i have a great problem with copying files via smbmount and smbclient. In my source-directory on computer1 i have the files sei001 with size 100 bytes and SEI001 with size 200 bytes. After copy these files to computer2 in the destination directory there only SEI001 with the size of 100 bytes has arrived. Samba does the following: It copies the file SEI001 to the destination and then

Hi, I have just installed Samba 2.0.6 and noticed that the "pagefile.sys" smbmount bug still exists: When unsing smbmount to mount an NT4 volume, and doing an "ls" on the mounted directory, I get: # ls /mnt ls: pagefile.sys: Permission denied . IO.SYS SRVMGR.EXE ffastun.ffa summary.dat .. KBROWSER

Is it possible to get samba(2.0.6 running on Solaris 7) to automatically install printer drivers for NT clients? Most of the documentation I've read only mentions windows 9x, but the O'Reillys book makes it sound like it might also be possible for NT. I have tried following the procedure in the book, but it only seems to partially set up the printer, allowing me to view spooling

Been working with Samba back to 1.9 or so, but this is the first time I've tried to set it up as a domain member server. I followed (I think) the instructions on how to do this in TOSHARG (which are about as disjointed as the book, which I took back), but I continue to be unable to get the box, running winbind, to reliably authenticate users off the PDC, which is running NT4 (and I'm not

Hi, I tried to make my Linux box smbmount a remote share originating from a Macintosh running the commercial package DAVE 2.5. The Linux box is a RedHat 6.0 with a 2.2.14 kernel (with smbfs inserted as a module) and samba-2.0.3; the iMac ran MacOS9. The directory to be shared, \\akemi\archivio, contained two files, aaa and bbb. Here's what happened: [root@sonal ~]# smbmount

Hi Bernd, There have been a lot of improvements in Samba since 2.0.5; I know that the 2.0.7 version is supposed to support unix HFS and VxFS quotas. Also the "with-quotas" option must be turned on at compile time, so perhaps your 2.0.5 version was not compiled "with-quotas"... I tested quotas and the HP 2.0.7 version here and it works the way that Dirk mentions, you will get

Hello all We have experienced some problems with samba recently. People were unable to access their files. Here is the story: [2000/03/02 09:12:26, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection(535) pdc (192.168.21.210) connect to service Document as user root (uid=0, gid=0) ( pid 1987) [2000/03/02 09:12:51, 0] locking/shmem_sysv.c:sem_change(124) ERROR: sem_change(6,-1) failed (Identifier removed)

Apologies if this has already been asked, but I couldn't find reference to it anywhere. Various windows versions allow characters in share names like " " and ")" (space, close paren) that need to be escaped when passed to the shell. However, it seems like the 2.0.5 smbmount calls smbmnt via the shell, and so if you try to do something like: smbmount

Hi, I upgraded to 3.6.0, but since that time, I can't connect to a share on a NT4 Wks host any more: # /usr/bin/smbclient //molek-04/lightcycler -U administrator protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT I thought it could be something with 'client ntlmv2 auth", what is 'yes' since that version. But even if I switch it to 'no' it's the same. What
