Listmates, I have had a few boxes where the 'matchname' message is filling my syslog with one new message ever ~40 seconds or so. No performance problems, just the log annoyance. An example of the messages are: Jan 11 13:43:03 nemesis smbd[2246]: [2010/01/11 13:43:03, 0] lib/util_sock.c:1685(get_peer_name) Jan 11 13:43:03 nemesis smbd[2246]: Matchname failed on Adrienne-PC.rbpllc.com

Help Andrew! and whoever else.. I have a Linux Mandrake 7.2 box with Samba 2.07 acting as a timeserver for our local lan. We are in the CST timezone. All windows boxes sync thier time from the Linux box via: net time \\Nemesis /set /yes. I would like to have xntp keep the clock on the server updated. Problem: ntpdate and xntp work great at setting the Linux box hardware clock to GMT. The

My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users can access there home shares from Windows clients. I have read the instructions at http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/pppd/final-report.pdf, but I can't make it work. Don't know if is due to my lack of skills or has something to do with the Popop functionality in FreeBSD. Following the instructions, i made a

Hello All, Well my Samba server is up and running good, but I am now needing to be able to let some of my users connect to our server who is not located on our local network. Actually they are located some distance away and I would like to be able to allow then to connect. Has anyone had any success with this and how it might be done? Best Regards, Lonnie -- Lonnie Cumberland OutStep

Hi, I have somewhat successfully got Samba working where as users can map the drives to their win2k/xp workstations and wrote to the folders they are given permissions to. They can write to the folder, delete folders, write files, delete files, view the file listing, however, they can't open files. For instance, if there is a word document, they can't just double click on the share and

Mates, The saga continues, but THANK GOD 'make revert' WORKS. Here is my problem. I am trying to compile 3.0.7 from source and install it on my Mandrake 7.2 box. The gcc compiler is 2.95.3. Here is what I have done: [stop samba] # ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-smbmount # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start Here is what I get: [root@Nemesis david]# tail

Hello all, I have a few strange errors in my messages log I can't fix. My system works great, it just bugs me that I have error (or apparent errors) that I don't know about. I get automount errors regurlarly (daily) that are reflected in the last four lines of the log file excerpt below. My misc and net directories are there, but I can't write to them either. The properties say that

Mates, I dunno if nobody else is using the samba binaries to put 3.0.20-1 on SuSE 9.3 -- or -- if I'm just doing something stupid, but there seem to be library problems.

Cross-posting scares me, but... Have you looked at the latest RPMs for SuSE, from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/samba/ ? They've worked like a charm for me, thus far (revision after revision, a simple rpm -U * seems to work...) -----Original Message----- From: david rankin [mailto:drankin@cox-internet.com] Sent: Mon 9/12/2005 5:30 PM To: samba; Suse Linux Subject: [SLE] SuSE 9.3 and

Listmates, After wrangling with the voltage value on the CyberPower 1000AVRLCD and now having 2 of them working, I though it would be a simple matter to move my APC BP650 from apcupsd to nut so that all 3 servers would be monitored on the same web interface. The APC is attached to an older box running openSuSE 11.0 with nut-2.2.2-66.1. (nut-classic). The APC BP650 uses a serial connection

Mates, Still can't get the latest samba binaries to inatall on SuSE 9.3. I've downloaded them from the samba site and from ftp://ftp.primastasys.com/pub/Samba-Packages/ still no joy.

Listmates, I have a fresh openSuSE 10.3 install with all updates installed, the video card is a MSI nVidia 8600GT (pci-e 16).

<earlier, David Rankin wrote to no avail:> Mates, I have been watching a developing problem over the past few weeks. Most likely a M$ patch to XP that has caused problems. What happens is that XP clients try to open the standard "File" -> "Open" dialog (like in word, or whatever) and the file open dialog hangs and stops responding for 15 seconds or so. I have

Mates, I have set up a backup scheme that uses rsync to backup shares from my mdk 7.2 box to an old ibm box that is running win95. Basically I use "smbmount //backup/d /mnt/backup -o password=" to mount the ibm's d:/ as /mnt/backup. How can I test to see if the drive is still mounted without using another smbmount call prior to starting the rsync backup. smbmount works for this,
