Hi all, I have the following problem. A Linux (2.2.19) machine is running Samba 2.2.2 as a PDC. The clients are Win2K SP2. A user accesses several Excel 2000 files on a share. This sometimes results in long(ish) delays (the user reports around 10 seconds, although this could be longer) and the message from Excel that the file is in use and can only be read. After closing and re-opening the file,

Hi there, I'm trying to compile nut 2.0.4 on an AIX 5.3 machine, but it fails: $ make common/ /usr/vac/bin/cc -I../include -O -c common.c /usr/vac/bin/cc -I../include -O -c upsconf.c /usr/vac/bin/cc -I../include -O -c parseconf.c /usr/vac/bin/cc -I../include -O -c state.c Target "all" is up to date. drivers/ /usr/vac/bin/cc -I../include -O -c

Hi everyone, I'm trying to use idmap_rid with Samba 3.0.21c on AIX 5.3. So far, I've not been successful. I've followed the method from http://us5.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/AIX/README to compile Samba, but added "--with-static-modules=idmap_rid". Also, I used IBM's compiler and not gcc. The compilation fails as follows: [...] Compiling sam/idmap.c Compiling

Hi everyone, I'm trying to use idmap_rid on an AIX 5.3 ML4 machine. Samba compiled successfully using the IBM compiler (vac.C) version 6. The only programs I supplied where db and libiconv. I followed the instructions, and put nsswitch/WINBIND in /usr/lib/security, and edited /usr/lib/security/methods.cfg. When I start "winbindd -i", it coredumps with a Signal 11: (dbx) where

Hi there, This is most likely something very basic which I'm not seeing right now. I have a Samba-server, which is running in security = domain, and it's a member of that domain (DOMAINA). The domain is a Win2003 domain. That domain has established a trust with another domain (DOMAINB). There's a Windows terminal server TERMSRV which is a member of DOMAINA, but a user from DOMAINB

Hello, I am running FreeBSD on a 486-2DX box, in a heterogeneous networked LAN environment, Win 95, 98, 2K & Mac - Samba coordinated. Now, I would like to run the FreeBSD boxes headless (sans keyboard, mouse, monitor etc.) How can I do this. I can manage & use the system through one of the other networked systems however on booting the sys. I'll need the keyboard and even monitor -

Hello, I have problems setting up a canon multifunction ir7200. When I print the windows test page, I have something like "smiley" "arrow" "arow" "smiley" "arrow" name_of_the_samba_spool "smileys" driver.dll etc,etc,etc, on a single line. Did somebody used such a multifunction with Samba ? Below is a (long) description of what I did. I

Dear syslinux list members, I'm a newbie on this list. I hope I don't offend anyone by being slightly off-topic. I had the problem of wanting multiple Linux distros (i.c. Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSuSE, SuSE, RedHat, CentOS, Fedora) installable from a single PXELinux menu, so I wrote a couple of scripts that do what is described below. The question is whether anyone would be interested in

Hi Jerry et al, will the 2.2.6 release show the printers in the 'add-new-printer-wizzard' on the client like the WINDOWS server do ? I'm not sure if you know what I mean, so here is a little illustration: ----------------------------- | NTSERVER | | \\ntserver\printer1 | | \\ntserver\printer2 | | \\ntserver\printer3 | | SAMBASERVER |

Wohoo, finaly i could help Rowland :-p ;-) I follow this as guidance: 1 server ( all in one ) use RID, easy to setup etc, but .. If you go to ... Or have plans to.. 2 servers ( DC + a member ) use backend RID if you dont need access with a windows account to a shared home folder. ( cifs or nfs ) you use a dedicated local "linuxAdmin" for maintanace. ( often the first created

Hello, I have tried to find that info, but couldn't yet find it in TOSHARG or "Samba-3 By Example" : A client has one NT-PDC running without WINS-service and a Samba-Domain-Member-Server that is currently the WINS-Server. I have > [global] > workgroup = MYWG > netbios name = MAIL > interfaces = eth* lo > map to guest = Bad User > security = domain

We are having a problem printing from a Sun machine to NT using Samba. The NT admins would like us to use an account other than the Guest account for printing so that they can disable the Guest account. The printer scripts have been changed to add the -U UNIXPRT option, but no matter what syntax we try to use, the -U option is ignored and the connection is made via the Guest account. I have

Hello, I have apache web server running on unix system. Then we have lots of users who only have accounts on our NT-domain. I'd like to do user&group authentications from our NT-domain using samba/SMBlib to do the actual authentication. Now does anyone know if there are already such systems available? What I'd like to do: 1) User connects to web page http://web/xyz. 2) He/she gets

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba

I'm working on the first of a few Samba machines for our network. It's running RedHat 6.2 and Samba 2.0.7. On the NT 4.0 side of things I can see the machine (with the correct name) if I do NET VIEW or look in the Network Neighborhood. However, when I do "NET VIEW \\SambaServer" I get an Error 5 Access Denied. (Test 8) So I started on the diagnosis and got to Item 5. When I

Dean - > if you are having these troubles and everyone keeps advising you to use > asterisk@home why aren't you doing this? Not to be rude, but I believe you are the only one who suggested he use asterisk@home. asterisk@home is a great (actually stupendous) product for those that want to have a PBX with a GUI up and running within a few minutes. It does not, however, force users

Dear all, I have been looking for a while for ways to simulate from Langevin distributions and I thought I would ask here. I am ok with finding an algorithmic reference, though of course, a R package would be stupendous! Btw, just to clarify, the Langevin distribution with (mu, K), where mu is a vector and K>0 the concentration parameter is defined to be: f(x) = exp(K*mu'x) / const where

Hi, this is a new user who is trying to reach the local network, managed by a windows NT server. I have edited my smb.conf file (which I include) so to be able to reach the network drives and the printers on the ntserver locally. When I try to see what is available using smbclient at the prompt, I cannot see which are the Services available (sharename fields empty), but I do see a lot of things
