Hi H. Peter Anvin, I wanted to thank you for sharing information about PXE, I have used this a lot and I wanted to share something that may be important for you and your readers. I have many different Dell model, they all worked well with PXE booting however not for E5510. I noticed that using "LocalBoot -1 or 0" doesn't work well. What I did use for Latitude E5510 (Bios A06)

Hi All: I'm running Mandrake 8.1 (downloaded) and the install went fine. Configuring Samba however is another story. I get the message "could not connect to host - localhost" on the Linux box. I cannot see the network from the Linux system. The Linux system is visable from Win'98SE as are the shares but I cannot access them "password is incorrect". This does not

Hi I've just built a Debian 3.0 Woody Samba server with version 2.23a. Using stable rather than unstable. After putting it into a network with another Samba server I find that the Win98 client machines can't connect to it but they can connect to the other server. The other server is set to OS level 65 and the new one is somewhere below that. I've run all the usual tests and they

Hi All, I had a look in archives but no joy. I just want to know before i deploy - if there is any problem with having multiple rsync sessions from many source locations all to same destination server ( all copying to different file systems obviously ) ?? Its jusat that i see on the destination machine a process rsync -server being called whenever a client connects. Thanks ! Laurence

Hi Wonder if anyone can help ? My own internal domestic server was running fine with most things until I re-installed today. Rsync config was done by someone else who knows what to do. I don't. Seems like a good time to learn :) I'm trying to backup the contents of my home directory to another internal machine which is at 192.168.1.4 from my home directory which is at

Hi all, the company I work for has an aging Digital PBX attached to an E1. This PBX has a few analogue lines, one of which we use a 'traditional' fax machine on. I want to upgrade our PBX and Asterisk is almost a perfect fit. The only problem I can't seem to find a working solution for is Faxing. I don't want to use Hylafax or other similar methodologies. I believe there

Hi, This is my first time mailing to this site. I am running two different versions of Samba on two different servers. 2.0.6 on server A & 2.0.7 on server B In the smb.conf file for 2.0.6 I have a parameter, allow hosts=, that contains multipul IP addresses on each entry & in the global entry. On server B, 2.0.7, I do not have this parameter defined on any entry. My question is :

We have some speed/performance issues: We have a 100M fullduplex private network setup to handle rsync transfers to our "mirror" server with a command like: time rsync -e ssh -avzl --delete --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync \ --exclude ".netscape/cache/" --delete-excluded \ bigserver:/staff1 /mirror/bigserver It takes about 20 minutes to check/transfer files from

Hi samba list members, Firstly, I've been using Samba for some while now and would to thank the Samba team for such a brilliant effort. I've got a Samba server running on a Linux box for a client (around 25-30 users) which has been running nearly 90 days now without any serious hitches at all. The client is incredibly impressed, over the moon, etc ... so it's probably time to pay up

I'm trying to troubleshoot a new samba setup on a tiny network, and I'm clearly missing something. I'm running Samba 3.0.22 on Ubuntu Linux. When I first set it up, it seemed to go so smoothly. I changed all the workstations to the same workgroup (RABNETWORK) and they could see each other and the server, but they couldn't open anything on the server. I don't really understand

Hi, While testing the upgrade from 2.0.6 to 2.0.7 I found some kind of misbehaviour of inherit permissions. It was already known that the SGID bit on directories is only useable with "inherit permissions = yes". Most of my shares depend heavily on this (unix) feature. Today I found out I cannot change a file attribute to read-only from NT while "inherit permissions" is set

I installed Samba2.0.7 on my FreeBSD 4.1 box and joined an NT domain. It worked perfect until I changed the hostname today. I found that I couldn't chage the machine password if hostname length is 15. The precedure I do is 1. stop samba 2. change hostname to "abcde1234567890" 3. run smbpasswd -j DOM -r DomControl, then I get the following error message. cli_net_auth2: Error

Hello, When I run the 'smbclient -L apollo' command at the UNIX prompt a I get an error. I have gone as far as I can in this DIAGNOSIS.txt file. Does anyone have any thoughts on what may be causing my problem ? I have made my comments to the DIAGNOSIS.txt file via '---- davidw {comment}' so you can see what I've done to date. Also, I thought I'd pass on the output

I am trying to install Samba 2.0.7 on my RedHat 6.2 system. I recently had Samba 2.0.6 on it, but after reading about the upgrade issues, uninstalled it. So unless there is something the RPM missed, it should be uninstalled. I am building Samba 2.0.7 myself with a GCC compiler (2.95.2), which has no problems. However, after I do make install, the system still will not find smbd or nmbd. Are there
