similar to: Newbie Question: Does smbwrapper/smbsh actually work?

Ill report this as a bug, since I havent had any response to my question about it on the mailing lists. I am trying to get at the /smb file system. My understanding is to do this I MUST go thru the smbsh. When I try executing smbsh, I see: [reg@orion bin]$ smbsh Username: rwclemens Password: ERROR: can't get smbw shared lock (Invalid argument) Looking at the code its not

Hi, I have samba 2.0.3 running on my SGI IRIX 6.4 box. So far everything seems to work fine with the following exception. When I run smbsh. I think somehow the program thinks that it is operating on the system root directory (/), not the /smb/host/... Here are a few symptoms: I start smbsh (in tcsh), it first gives an error rightaway: ERROR: can't get smbw shared lock (Bad file number)

Version 2.0.5a (same prob w/2.0.4b, though). smbsh segfaults after I enter my password. As root, it just seg faults. As my login user, it dumps core. Attached is a script of an strace of it. Running RH 6.0, kernel 2.2.10, AMD K6-2/350, 64M RAM. Configure options were: CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" ./configure --prefix=%{pref} --libdir=/etc \ --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba

Hi all I'm currently using Samba 2.2.5 with LDAP support on my PDC and normal (no-LDAP) on other Linux boxes I have, and smbsh keeps failing with this error: ERROR: can't get smbw shared lock (Invalid argument) Does anyone know what's up? Is smbsh broken in general (obviously it is in my case)? Best Diego

Has anyone seen the following problems with smbsh under Solaris 8: 1. smbsh with no options does not prompt correctly for the Username: and Password:. You can enter them if you know that is what you need and it will continue on. If you use -U username it works. 2. Once smbsh is running, any command results in a "[1]+ Stopped" with bash. If you

I am having a problem with smbsh. I get the following error after I enter my username and password: ERROR: can't get smbw shared lock (Invalid argument) I am running linux 7.2 with samba 2.2.2. The error message is produced from the function lockit(void) in smbwrapper/shared.c. The error originates in file lib/util.c in function: fcntl_lock(shared_fd,SMB_F_SETLKW,0,1,F_WRLCK) fcntl_lock

Someone asked today about smbfs on HPUX. The basic answer to that is that smbfs is _very_ operating system specific so it would take quite a lot of work to get it to run on another OS. There is hope though. Over the past few days I have been developing something called smbwrapper (and smbsh). This offers most of the capabilities of smbfs in a way that makes it somewhat portable. It also provides

Hi I can't get 2.0.7 to compile under linux 6.4. My configure looks like: ./configure --with-smbwrapper --with-automount --with-smbmount but when I make, all goes well until: Compiling smbwrapper/shared.c Linking bin/smbsh Compiling smbwrapper/smbw.c with -fpic smbwrapper/smbw.c:1429: warning: `struct stat64' declared inside parameter list smbwrapper/smbw.c:1429: warning: its scope

After discovering a bug in the SuSE Samba binary (2.2.7a and 2.2.8a) which prevents some older DOS programs from creating files on a Samba share, I downloaded and built Samba 2.2.8a from the sources. Everything seems to work now (the old DOS programs are able to write to Samba shares) with the exception of smbwrapper which causes the following errors when Samba is built:

Hi, I'm using samba in 2.0.6 in an IRIX 6.5.5 environnement. Everything is working fine. I definetly need to access NT server's files (the reverse approach). I'd love to have ability to use smbfs and/or smbmount, but since these are only released on Linux, and following the attached message advices , I'm trying to resolve my need with smbsh. I remain getting the error message

All, I have been working on a component that is included with samba called SMBSH. The binary allows you to automount your NT shares by accessing your profile . I have been working on this for the last few days and have been unsuccesful at getting it work. Now I am not much of a programmer, but I did my best to try and troubleshoot this. However it just does not want to work in Linux. I

Hello, I have trouble getting smbsh to work. Unfortunately I could not find sufficient documentation on the web. /smb seems to be empty: $./smbsh -W Ntdomain_1 -U myname -d 2 Password: smbsh$ ls /smb UX:ls: ERROR: Cannot access /smb: No such file or directory smbsh$ What is the problem? I have not edited any settings/password files. I have tried both Samba-2.2.2

This smbsh rips! However, it unfortunately only rips on one of the machines here ;) On the others, which have basically the same config but a 2.2.5 kernel (vs 2.2.9) smbsh runs fine, and a cd to /smb works, but nothing else. 'ls' produces a listing of the directory where smbsh started in - it seems to me that no 'preloading' is being done of smbwrapper.so. Is there a way to test

Hi Oka, It worked! All works fine in the tcsh. Thanks!

Hi, currently I am running Solaris 8 and I am trying to install Samba so that I can run smbsh to access a Windows server. I do the following: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/samba --with-smbwrapper make make install All the documentation I have seen says what I am doing is correct. Neither the configure nor any of the make commands fail. And once the installation is complete everything else

After you compile and install it (./configure --enable-smbwrapper ; make ; make install does it) you simply run it - it'll give you a login/pw and your usual shell prompt. You then can

I tried linking smbwrapper.so directly into bash, but that only works for bash and not any of the subprocesses it runs. That is bash can cd into the /smb directory and I can do an echo * to list files. But if I run a system command (ls, emacs) they can't see the /smb directory because they aren't linked with smbwrapper.so. -----Original Message----- From: Dirk De Wachter

First off, I don't know if this is password caching revisited with a vengeance or what. It's very inconsistent for the amount of time the share will stay mounted.

Hi , I use samba version 2.0.2 . It provides an utility called smbsh using which users can use the resources in Windows clients from Unix prompt like local resources . Unfortunately I dont have man pages or any other document as to how to make use of this utility . Any help regarding how to use this utility will be appreciated TIA Cheers -Dorai

Hello Everyone, I hope that there is someone who can help me. At work we are using Samba for over a year now. Sharing Unix filesystems as a NT network drive is very useful for us. Now my question. We also want to work the other way around. So mounting a Windows NT share as an Unix (AIX) filesystem. I found it very hard on finding information on that subject. So can you tell me what the best
