I've sent a couple of messages about this to both of these lists, but I've never gotten it working. :-( I've got details, so I'll post to both lists, and see if anybody can, or has, made this work. I've got a share for Office 2000, with 2 sub directories under it, one for disk one, one for disk 2. When I try to run setup from a UNC (\\blofeld\office2000\disk1\setup), I get

Anybody made OpenSSH work on a SPARC machine yet? I managed to get OpenSSL to compile correctly, via a patch to fix the location of perl (on RPM based systems, it will almost always be in /usr/bin/perl, not in /usr/local/bin/perl), and a small patch to the spec file to allow for SPARC builds. That RPM is built and installed without any errors that I can detect. OpenSSH is failing during a key

This was working a couple of weeks ago, but it's broken now. When I issue a command like 'mount -t smbfs //server/share /mount/point' I get an error that says " mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //mrbig/grego$, or too many mounted file systems " However, when I issue the command 'smbmount //server/share /mount/point/ it works just fine.

I've got a couple of SPARCstation 2s (about as fast as a fast 486, for most thing) that I'm going to be using for some testing. I realize that these machines are a bit slow, but when connecting via OpenSSH, it's MUCH slower than connecting to my 486-DX 50. The point where it waits is just after "debug: Sent encrypted session key.". The pause is for about 10 seconds, while

Using Office2K (Word & Excel) on NTWS 4.0 and samba 3.0.0 on Debian Linux, kernel 2.4.21. 1. Run Excel and create a sheet. Save it to the Samba server. No problem. 2. Close the sheet and open a new one (File->New). 3. Try to save the new sheet over the first one and Excel gives the error: "Cannot save the file. 'H:\test\Book1.xls' is not a valid file name." 4. Click

After upgrading my small test system from Debian Etch->Lenny via a complete reinstall, I find my g729 hostid has changed. Same machine, same CPU, same NIC! It doesn't seem reasonable that I have to burn my one "no-hassle" re-registration for a simple OS upgrade. The README only says that hostid is based on MAC addresses of all NICs, but that doesn't seem to be true. Does

Hello One and All, I am a Linux admin, new to asterisk. I have been assigned the task of setting up a dictation server for the company I work for. Our company is into transcription. Currently we are using dictation server, which is provided by another company. Now we have decided to have our own dictation server. I have installed asterisk and have gone through many documentation and

Hi, After upgrading from Mandrake Linux 9.2 to Mandrake Linux 10 I can no longer browse my workgroup domain in "My Network Places" from my XP Pro clients. However, I can still access the shares on my Samba server without problem using either "Add Network Place" or by entering the path directly in Explorer. Another symptom is found in my Samba log where a lot of the

I get the following error, this one is when I try to run Half-Life, and WinMM comes up again when I try to install Office2k. <snip> err:mmsys:MMDRV_InitHardcoded You didn't setup properly the config file for the Wine multimedia modules. Will use the hard-coded setup, but this will disappear soon. Please add a WinMM section to your Wine config file. <snip> I've checked my

when opening an excel file using wine with ms office2k version of excel, i don't get a message that the file is already opened by another user if i have the same file open on a windows workstation running excel 2k. I also tested opening a file first from my linux pc running wine, leaving the file open, and trying to access the same file from the windows pc... the default behavior of excel is

wineprefixcreate does not create a working registry. The system had a working set of .wine .reg files however installs of office2k failed. I then saved .wine and rebuilt it with wineprefixcreate. After this the original applications did not work. Is wineprefixcreate supposed to succeed at this? Thanks - Dan

The README.Win32-Viruses file distributed with Samba 2.2.2 gives procedures for trying to stop the Nimda virus on Samba shares. It contains mostly good info and it is a good idea to implement this extra level of protection but there is one thing to watch out for. The README says to veto the file "riched20.dll" (along with a few others). This is fine unless you are using your Samba box

Hi all, Have successfully installed Office2k. All programs start correctly, even if there is a message, that the Office Assistant didn't install correctly, but they run. Of course, i have some problems :-)) : 1. In Word, the text, i was typing, does not appear. In Excel and PowerPnt it does... 2. Neither Word, nor other Office applications can open or save any files, because they mean, the

I suspect this is an old one but can't find the answer in the archives Symptoms: Word2000 "hangs"/ takes ages(minutes) to open document apparently due to doing something with default printer??? relevent smbd process on server runs up to 50-60% and stops there for several minutes. Oplocks seem to be created on downloadable driver files when printer is accessed DENY WRITE

Hello, we are on the way to relaunch winetools for 0.9. One problem remains unsolved: Whenever we start Word 2k, it states "Preparing installation..." and "Please wait till office completes the installation..". It does so and we have a working Word. But is it annoying that is done on every single start of Word. All other Office2k apps perform very well. Regards Joachim von

Is this really caused by a buggy server, or is this an interoperability problem? It seems to work ok when I specify -o "protocol 1" on the command line.

Problem: Samba running as a PDC on a FreeBSD, the clients can connect without computer accounts and browse the shares in the domain. Should the PDC allow that? As far as i have understood the PDC should refuse since the computer does not have a account in the domain regardless that the user have a user account? Can it somehow be that i have named the computers as the users, user bob with

Hello. I'm trying to install MS Office 2000 Small Bussiness (Polish version) with latest CVS wine. First I get a small message box that tells me, that my Windows Installator is being upgraded, then I get an error message, that could be roughly translated as: "Windows system Installer in this system has been upgraded. You have to restart system to finish this upgrade

I've got a machine running RedHat Linux 6.2 on a P-II400 with 256MB of ram. I'm mounting shares in the manner 'mount -t smbfs -o uid=user,gid=group //server/share /mount/point'. The server is a genuine NT 4 server, with SP5 and a couple of hotfixes. I mounted a couple of shares yesterday, and overnight the stopped working. When accessing the share, I get an error message that
