I've got problems getting files from a win2000 server using smbclient (see subject "SMBClient & Windows 2000"). I've tried using the -b parameter (documented in the online man pages) to change the buffersize in case that might be the problem but the smbclient I'm running doesn't recognise it. I've installed 2.0.7 on Compaq Tru64, smbclient declares itself as

we're testing a new NFS product for our mainframe system (Conectivitiy Systems TCP/IP for VSE) and have successfully mapped a virtual drive to our unix system (AIX 4.2). We use Samba (v.1.9.18p2) to share files with the Windows 95 and Windows NT systems in the building. We have attempted to map the "mapped" drive from the mainframe via Samba. We're able to see files in the

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. I've put an entry for the mount in /etc/fstab with the user option, what have i missed? I'm

Today, our network has been excruciatingly slow. I checked the log.nmb file, and I noticed that today, the Samba PDC has been losing its "local master browser" status every 2 minutes or so, for about 15 seconds, to a Win9x client. Before today, this also happened, but only a few times each day. Network configuration: 1. All clients are Win9x. 2. Server is SuSE 6.1, with Samba 2.0.5.

Hello I would like to install samba in AIX 4.2 machine and I down load the samba 2.0.7 version, after I read UNIX_INSTALL.txt file. But unfortunately I have the message when I execute the ./configure command that my C Compiler cannot create the .exe file.

Alright lads, I'm Rick Masters and I know very little about networks, but for some mad reason I have been given the job of setting up a Linux File Server on an NT network. How the dickens does that work? Anyway I need as much help as you can be bothered to give me. And there is a free pizza in it for the guy who helps me get it working :-) You are all super and great fun (I'm sure).

And are now having problems opening some files with some applications from samba shares. We have traced it to being a file open function used by apps. such as notepad and perl. Any ideas what has changed in SP6 and how to fix it? samba server Samba 2.0.7 on Solaris 2.8 --

Dear Sir I been reading through your (?) samba-doc folder on Debian 2.2. The document DOMAIN-CONTROL.txt is dated 1996 and updated 1998. It mentions that SAMBA cannot be a PDC.

Greetings, This is my first posting. I read that Samba can run on USS OS/390 but are there tips or tricks that can be shared? I am a AIX systems engineer (13mos) with 13 years experience as a MVS systems guy. Our current release of OS/390 is 2.8 . I already found a lot of information about Samba on OS/390 in the download page and I'm trying to make sense of it. But if there is any

Our development team has been having the following issue for quite some time and I cannot isolate the problem. I saw a similar posting in the archives but there are no replies. We are running Samba 2.0.7 on a RedHat 6.2 server and we connect to the server from Windows 2000 desktops. We are editing files through a drive mapped to a share on the server. The problem is when we save the file in the

Hello all, I am new to this list and to samba. I used samba in a previous life, but someone else installed and maintained it. I am have a small issue that I do not know if it is resolvable. Here it is: I have installed samba on the server named "kirk", our master domain controller for nt is named "picard". They are on the same subnet. My clients are on a different
