I've already offered the solution twice, and I believe Andrew has mentioned it too, but we obviously keep getting new people on the list ;) So here's how to fix it, once again: Add the following line to the [global] section of your smb.conf: ssl CA certDir = /usr/share/ssl/certs That's it! The default

We are using Samba on a Sun Solaris system having shareable folders between users of Sun and NT workstations. Having recently upgraded a number of users from Office 97 to Office 2000, we are now experiencing a situation with Excel where two users can now modify the same file at the same time. This was not allowed with Excel 97. We have not made any changes to the Samba configuration and are

I've been having some odd problems with samba and it's libsmb/nmblib parts. It seems to be trying to transmit data to the .63 of my netblock, i.e. the IP of the machine would be 24.240.60.20, it'd be trying to transmit to 24.240.60.63. I've changed IPs about 15 times since, and it does it to each different block I change to. If the IP of the local machine got changed to

Hi, I'm trying to mount samba shares onto the file system, but at the moment i only seem to be able to mount them as root. I've tried changing the permissions on the mount point and even mounting it on a subdir of my home directory but mount just keeps telling me that only root can do this.

Dear Samba List, I have been reading the archives for mention of multi-homed Samba, and Samba over multiple subnets. I have two questions: 1) It is true that the nmbd daemon will only allow one IP address per subnet to be added to the local interface list? So if I had a Linux machine with two NIC cards connecting to the same HUB, using the same subnet, only one of these interfaces will be

I have files many SAMBA file shares on a unix bot and clients are connecting to those file shares. 1. Problem: I can use explorer to view,browse and access files in those file shares without any problems except files on the top level which I can not double click to open them. Any lower level files are no problem. 2. When I use excel or word (Notepad, wordpad and others have no problem) and

The latest chan_sip.c works for my budgetones with the following lines removed. YMMV. I haven't bothered to dig in and see what those lines actually do.
