similar to: briefcase problem with win98/ME

Hi, I have a Samba 2.2.3a-6 server running on top of Debian Woody. There are two things I still have problems with. Number one is case mangling. I have set "mangle case = Yes" in [global] and left all other options related to case at their default and it works to some extent. But for example I cannot rename "whatever.txt" to "WhatEver.txt". The way it works is

Hello everyone... I have been using Samba v1.9.16p11 for a little while now and I just noticed that when I create a Windows 95 Briefcase on a Samba drive it appears as a folder (directory). This also happens when I move a briefcase created on a local drive to the network. I admit a small degree of ignorance here because I do not have an NT box to test the setup with so I do not know if this is

Is there a way to successfully create a working Briefcase on Samba shares? When I create one in a Samba share, it has a regular folder icon with a desktop.ini file in it. Openning it reveals a plain folder rather than the usual Briefcase applet. When I create one on a Windows NT network share it works fine, but all our big filesystems are unix-based Samba shares rather than NT shares. -Ernie

Hi all, I've just realised Samba doesn't appear to support M$ Briefcases, which is a bit of a shame as I've just designed an Access Database system that needs to replicate between Servers on five sites, and we've just converted the client's NT Servers to Linux Samba Servers.... (now, finally, things work properly!!) So, presuming there is a God up there somewhere.... can

Hi, i've tried adding server max protocol = NT1 into /etc/samba/smb.conf and restarting smbd and nmbd services but it didn't do the trick. I feel like Windows clients are not able to resolve SRV1 into the PDC and so they can't event try to join the domain.

Right now i'm out of the office and i have no way to remotely work with the Windows machines so i've been upgrading the server to Ubuntu 16.04. Everything seems to be working as before but i'm wondering why right now the Master value is blank for Workgroup exedra.cat Any idea? # smbclient -L localhost WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Enter root's password:

I'm completely lost as i can ping SRV1 without issues but i'm starting to think that maybe Windows tries to join the domain through IPV6. ping -c6 SRV1 from this Windows 10 machine leads to host not found so i'm working on this direction right now. Any help will be really appreciated On Fri, May 20, 2016 at 5:04 PM, Gaiseric Vandal <gaiseric.vandal at gmail.com> wrote: > I

Hi there, I'm currently trying to set up SAMBA on SuSE 6.3 but I just can't get it to let my Windows 98 PC in. I created a share and I can access it using smbclient but when I try to click on the System in the Network Neighbourhood or by typing \\Arris\share in Start -> Run all I get is "\\Arris is not available the computer or sharename cannot be found ..." or "The

Hi, thanks a lot for the tips. I already did the first one, importing the following into the registry: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManWorkstation\Parameters] "DomainCompatibilityMode"=dword:00000001 "DNSNameResolutionRequired"=dword:00000000 I didn't do the second tip but it looks like it's not

Hi, thanks a lot for your reply. Yes, i enabled wins through "wins support = yes", i also enabled lmhosts lookup and wins on all clients but will check it as you proposed. Tomorrow will try to disable ipv6 on Windows clients following this link https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929852 Which process did you follow to disable IPV6? I'm also wondering if it's really necessary

Hi all, some years ago i configured a `Primary Domain Controller` through Samba and LDAP (slapd) on an Ubuntu machine (13.10) at 192.168.69.203 which should be accessible by the string/name `SRV1`. I must note i did not installed winbind. I've never had any issue and it looks like it's working fine as about 10 Windows machines joined the PDC and Windows users can login against PDC on

I was trying to fix a problem on Windows 10 with Outlook 2013. Also running an NT4-style domain. The machine had already been joined to the domain and outlook had been working but recently not (probably after patch tuesday.) I also had had problems with Win 10 mail and RDP. I came across the following link.

Excuse me for the little flood please, i've just checked it again and now i see SRV1 as master for exedra.cat workgroup, i event can see in the logs Samba name server SRV1 is now a local master browser for workgroup EXEDRA.CAT on subnet 192.168.69.203 So i'll keep digging on how to fix the issue exposed on my first email, tomorrow i'll try to see wether it's an IPV6 issue or

You should be able to unbind ipv6 for the win 10 machine's network interface. does "nslookup SRV1" work? Also, you may want to try running tcpdump or ethereal or wireshark on our PDC and see what traffic is captres.

In my User auth scheme I have a userlevel. I''ve overloaded the User class operators like this: def >(item) if item.class == "User" self.userlevel > item.userlevel else self.userlevel > item end end (other operators are overloaded in essentially the same way). As I understand it, using the operator ">" inside the overloaded
