Hi Folks, Where is the best place to feed back patches and problem reports for Samba these days? Should I be using "samba-patches@samba.org"? This list? The samba-technical list? The samba-bugs address bounces back an auto-response telling one to use samba-patches for well-formed patches, but if the Jitterbug web interface is to be believed then submissions to samba-patches seem to be

Hi folks, I have a couple of observations about NetBIOS keepalive handling in Samba, in case anyone is interested. I came across a few oddities when investigating why some of our Samba servers were logging: lib/util_sock.c:write_socket_data(540) write_socket_data: write failure. Error = Broken pipe type errors on a very frequent and regular basis. We have a number of Solaris 2.6 machines,

I've got Redhat 6.2 kernel 2.2.18 and have been running samba 2.07. When I try to configure samba 2.2.0, the configure bombs out with an error ERROR: No locking available. Running Samba would be unsafe with what I think relevant lines from the configure output are: checking for Linux kernel oplocks... no checking for fcntl locking... no Is there something I have to enable in the Kernel for

Well you won't find them shouting about it, but if you dig down in their web pages on Solaris 9 you'll find this : "Common Linux applications, such as Samba, Apache, Linux (GNU) commands, etc., are included in the Solaris 9 Operating Environment. The Solaris Software Companion CD has an even more comprehensive set of free software." So I guess that means we made it onto the OS

Newbie question! We currently are running a product call TAS from Syntax Corporation and would like to move to Samba. I have review the documentation and cannot find how to set up muliple services on one server. I tried using the Netbios name = and the include statement to bring in another smb.conf file but I don't think I'm on the right track.

Andrew: One additional issue that came up with trying to configure the SMB.CONF file: The "Using Samba" book from O'Reilly says to start up my browser and go to "http://localhost:901, to use the SWAT package. This did not work. My IE 5.0 came back with an unable to locate or connect to the specified host. I know the /etc/services file was modified correctly, I checked it

Hi all, I would like to do something like this at Samba level: hosts allow = subnet1/mask1 subnet2/mask2 etc hosts deny = * But this doesn't seem to work (machine that are not in subnet1 and not in subnet2 still have access) I think the * is not understood by Samba, I tried ALL, this didn't work either. I'm gonna check the samba source code but if I could get an expert answer

Hello all, Help!! Am running Unix 2.4 and Samba allowing windows clients to map the Unix server. Some users have been unable to connect to mapped drives and having looked at the logs I see the message: Unable to initgroup! this is probably a problem with the account nobody This message appears in all the user logs, however, only some users have the problem of connecting. I have looked at the

samba2.07,nt4sp6a I run a samba-server with 15nt-clients on a 100MBit-Switch. Now I faced extremely poor performance and really have no idea why. I even dont know if it can be a samba-problem. When copying myriads of small file from a client to the server or vice versa I get bad performance: 1000 files a 16kb: ~80seconds = 200kb/second But this is highspeed compared to copying from nt to nt:

Hello, I need an answer to the following problem: I have a Samba server with domain logons enabled and with encrypt passwords=no. So I don't use the smbpasswd file, only the Unix password files. When I try to logon with a Win95 client (client for Microsoft Networks, logging on to a domain), people with mixed-case passwords cannot logon to the Samba logon server. Those with a password in

We have 4 class C networks, 199.129.206.* 199.129.207.* 199.129.208.* 199.129.209.* I see IP addresses from all 4 classes thru tcpdump. Some of these computers broadcast as C-class computers; eg, to 199.129.206.255 Some broadcast to 255.255.255.255 Of course, several C class networks would induce me to use a B-class broadcast, 199.129.255.255 This works for the computers I

Kevin, Firstly, you need to obtain the DES libraries. Then you need to tell the Samba Makefile that you wish to compile in DES encryption services and link with the DES library. Then in the smb.conf file you need to add to the [Globals] section: encrypted passwords = yes Then you need to create a separate smbpasswd file. Please read the documentation in the docs directory of the Samba source

Everyone, I upgraded Solaris 2.6 box running Samba 2.0.4 to a Solaris 7 with a new version of Samba 2.0.6 I used all my old smb.conf files on this new server and now I can see the server but when you try to connec to it is give the message " Not accessable " Unexpected network error occured" Thanks for any help getting this figured out it must be some thing small I am missing

Hi folks, I have a print server, running SPARC Solaris 9. I've just upgraded from Samba 3.0.10 to 3.0.22 and immediately hit system load issues which appear to be related to the use of "lpstat -v" to determine the available print queues. There are about 70 Unix print queues on this system. Running "lpstat -v" can take something like 20s of wall-clock time. lpstat
