Dear sirs! I kindly ask you to help me with the following problem. I need to mount MS DFS tree Linux filesystem. I have: Linux Slackware 9.0. Kernel 2.4.21 compiling with support SMB file system. Samba 2.2.8a compiling with --with-msdfs In order to mount I type: mount -t smbfs -o username=name,password=***,workgroup=work //server/DfsRoot/mnt/DfsTree after cd /mnt/DfsTree In the DfsTree directory

I've set up a dfs share according to instructions. There is one part of the instructions that I don't understand. I've checked the forum archives but can't find any examples which might help. In the Instructions section (4.1 of the HTML Samba Project Documentation), is shows how to set up the symbolic links in a DFS share, as shown below. I have 2 Samba servers (SMB1 and SMB2).

Hi: I've got a samba/DFS server configured that works fine under it's original name, but I'm getting booted out of that DNS domain, into a subdomain. All my (WinXP) clients have drives mapped to names like \\server.domain.com\dfsroot. If I browse to the path, \\server.domain.com\dfsroot, everything works. I can access the shares pointed to via the dfs links But, now the network is

Hi I have installed Solari 9 on SunFire e450 box and installed latest Solaris patches. Then I have downloaded samba-latest.tar.gz and along with it the following packages gcc-3.4.6-sol9-sparc-local.gz samba-latest.tar.gz libiconv-1.11.tar.gz Then # gunzip gcc-3.4.6-sol9-sparc-local.gz # gunzip samba-latest.tar.gz # gunzip libiconv-1.11.tar.gz pkgadd -d gcc-3.4.6-sol9-sparc-local pkgadd -d

Hello, Did anybody outside SUN tried to build xen-src (osox-src-2006-08-16)? I had tried it on x86_64 machine. I am running SXCR46 (I know that it says that SXCR 44 is needed, but I hope that this is a minimum requierment, even that it doesn''t say it explicitly, and that SXCR 46 is also good. BTW, Am I right in this ? ) ; I ran "nightly opensolaris.sh &". My

G''Day Folks, While I have a few minutes online (which is rare at the moment - travel), let me post about a couple of new scripts. I''ve just uploaded them to http://www.brendangregg.com/dtrace.html. They are to profile user-level functions and libaries; and kernel-level functions and modules. They sample, rather than trace (which can be both good and bad). Here is hotuser

Hi, Does anyone know if there has been any more progress on the problem of browsing 'complex dfs roots' see http://lists.samba.org/archive/smb-clients/2006-February/000622.html Basically it occurs whenever you have a Microsoft Distributed File System Tree where the links are to subfolders of the destination share. Microsoft clients have no trouble browsing such trees. The Samba HOWTO

We restored to 3.0.23d after update to 3.0.25a because of strange dfs behavior. the detailed situation: on msdfs root server 'samba' ls -lR dfsroot/: drwxr-xr-x appl1 dfsroot/appl1 lrwxrwxrwx share1 -> msdfs:server1\share1 [dfs] comment = "SaMBa DFS root" path = /path.../dfsroot # next line does not work prior 3.0.25 !!! # hide unreadable = Yes

Hi, I created a package for OpenSSH 3.7.1p2 in UNIX (OS: Sun Solaris), the newly created package includes binaries,man pages, libraries and Configuration files. I am planning to install this package in all of my Sun server's (Approximately 200 Server's). We have SSH/OpenSSH older version are already installed and running in all of the sun boxes. I want to install the

Please help me understand why I am unable to connect to and browse the newly configured DFS tree that I installed on my Samba server according to the instructions found in Chapter 18. "Hosting a Microsoft Distributed File System Tree" of the official how-to. Irrespective of whether I try to access the dfs file tree from either the local file browser (and choosing the SMB tree) or from

Is there a trick to being able to access shares via \\domain\dfsroot\.. rather than \\computer\dfsroot\... ? Only the latter works for me - samba 3.0.22

Hi, I downloaded 3.0.20 from samba.org, ran makepkg.sh to create samba pkg for Solaris. The install base for the new version locates in /opt/samba and the smbd locates in /etc/samba. I tried to modify the makepkg.sh to put everything under /usr/local/samba as follow: Delete: ==== --localstatedir=/var/lib/samba \ --with-piddir=/var/run \

I've been testing DFS roots and I'm finding that while Vista and 2008 Server clients can connect with no problems, Windows XP Pro and 2003 Server clients fail. This seems like it's the wrong way round - Samba usually has more difficulties with recent Windows versions than older ones - but I can only assume that there's some registry/policy change between the versions. If anybody

I am very new to Samba, so please excuse this naive question. Samba seems to be working properly from my Red Hat 7.2 system. I am using a GUI called xSMBrowser, and am able to transfer files back and forth to the Windows machines on my network. I now want to access my Linux system from a Windows 98 machine. I can see it ('Mail') in 'My Network Places' within the workgroup

Hi, I am trying to configure domain DFS (I think that's the correct term) as below, using the guide on the wiki: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS)#Configure_domain-based_DFS_in_Samba I am aware that the wiki says that this doesn't quite work... however it feels to me that it's very close, nearly working, and I might be able to get it going (hopefully?!)

Is there anything for xwindows that will let you browse the network like with microsofts neighborhood network? Rob Kobiske

Hi, I'm trying to create a map of DFS links to actual server/share's.? I know that you can get this information by logging on to the DFS root server, but I'm trying to use the libsmbclient API to get this information. I have created a fairly simple DFS structure on 2003 servers with everything on the same domain. //MyDomain/DFSRoot /Link1 -> //Fileserv-1/FileShare1
