Hello, Can anyone give me arguments that could convince someone to choose for Samba for file and print sharing instead of setting up a NT-server? Performance ? Stability ? Benchmarks ? Tests that someone has done? Things like: "It's free" or "You don't need a powerful machine" are irrelevant to our administrators. I'm looking for answers on questions like:

Glück Auf! I use now kernel 3.2. The filesystem was originally created under 2.6.39 on 1 whole hdd, mounted with "noatime,nodiratime,inode_cache". I use it for backups: rsync the whole system to a subvolume, snapshot it and then delete some tempfiles in the snapshot, which are 90% of the full-backup, all once a day. In figures: on this 1 TB hdd is the full-backup with around 600 GiB and

Glück Auf! I know its been discussed more then ones, but as a user I really would like to see the patch for allowing this in the kernel. Some users tested this patch successfully for weeks or months in 2 or 3 kernel versions since then, true? I''d say by creating a snapshot, it''s nothing else in the end.

Hello all, I receive some errors which I cannot explain : Hopefully there's someone who can help me.

Hello, I think (in fact I'm quite sure) I have found the following bug in Swat. In my configuration I use the global option "invalid users=@class". When I set this option using SWAT, all works fine after "commit changes". Users who belong to the "class" group cannot access the server. But when I erase this value using SWAT and do "commit changes",

Hello, Concerning the upcoming 2.2.3 release of Samba with LDAP support. Question 1: Is it possible that you define multiple ldap servers in the option "ldap server ="? In the event that one LDAP server is down, the next LDAP server defined can take over. If not, no authentication is possible if the LDAP server is not available? Question 2: Is there any fallback possible to a

Hello, I need an answer to the following problem: I have a Samba server with domain logons enabled and with encrypt passwords=no. So I don't use the smbpasswd file, only the Unix password files. When I try to logon with a Win95 client (client for Microsoft Networks, logging on to a domain), people with mixed-case passwords cannot logon to the Samba logon server. Those with a password in

Hello, We're looking at implementing Samba in our PC-rooms (500 PC's). I have set up an Samba authentication server (with 20.000 students) and Samba server with several shares. These questions still rise: * A student can only have access to one computer. He should not be able to login on a second computer with the same account. Up till now I wasn't able to realise this, it's

Hello, Some weeks ago I reported my troubles with mixed-case passwords. I thought that using the option "password level" would solve my problems. Unfortunately I have ran into difficulties. Our students passwords are eight caracters long, with at least one number, one minor letter and one capital letter. I have set "password level = 6" (since there can be a maximum of 6

Hello, I have discovered what seems to me an unlogic issue in Samba. I have a Samba logon server with login scripts based on machine names (%m.bat). This is what happens when I make a connection as a regular user.

Hello, I have defined 20.000 users on a Samba-server. The samba-server takes care of domain logons. When several users try to authenticate at THE SAME time the server can't follow: only the first users can succesfully logon. When they don't logon simultaneously there's no problem. For example: 20 users log on at exactly the same time. This situation occurs in our pc-rooms when

hello I've been reading the thread (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=113286376900001&r=1&w=2) and I have the same limitation with WINS in a PDC/BDC. That's why I have the following (experimental) setup: PDC ==> wins support = yes, passdb backend: master ldap BDC ==> wins support = yes, passdb backend: slave ldap I configured some of my XP clients to use both WINS servers

Hello, I wanted to let you know that I'm able to succesfully work with 20000 users and several concurrent logon sessions. Instead of using /etc/smbpasswd or /etc/passwd, I chose to use /var/db/password.db. I created this file using the makefile which is located in the /var/db directory. I suppose this is an indexed version of /etc/passwd and works a lot faster than the regular flat file. Also

Hello, When I open a text file on a Samba fileserver using LDAP for authentication, Samba always makes these LDAP calls (see below).
