I'm trying to mount a share from an NT machine which has an space inside, i.e doing something like that: mount -t smbfs -o username=nardmann,password=xxx "//machine/for internal use" internal_use I always get the message Could not resolve mount point internal How do I mount such shares with whitespace inside the share name? -- Heiko Nardmann (Dipl.-Ing.), h.nardmann@secunet.de,

I have problems mounting a share from our NT server. Connecting to the share via smbclient '//snsrv051/public' -W ... -U ... and typing my password works nicely but smbmount '//snsrv051/public' /mnt/snsrv051/public -W secunet-si -U nardmann just gives me the following error message: Added interface ip=10.151.4.59 bcast=10.151.7.255 nmask=255.255.252.0 Server time is Fri Jan 29

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I just set up a PDF printer via Samba 2.2.5 according to the article given in the German magazine iX of March. Now I have the problem that at the first time I done this a file appeared in the resulting pdfshare (the file created by Word which I test with) but afterwards I cannot get it running again (although I restarted smbd and nmbd). No

I am running Samba 2.0.6 successfully on a Linux machine. Currently I try to add the two printers in our net to Samba. Now I wonder which printer names in the printcap are shown when I do a 'smbclient -L <linux machine>'. The printcap contains something like remote22|HPL4kSC|HP Laserjet floor 4 ... remote21|HPLaser4|HP Laserjet floor 3 Now the first printer shows up as

I always get the messages of this list in a digest format. This is bad to handle, esp. if you want to answer a question found in the digest. Does everyone else also get the list as a digest? Is there a way to switch to single messages? If not how do I easily answer messages which the subject correctly set? Or how do I automatically split the digest into the separate messages? For your

Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).

Good afternoon, I've downloaded the newly released Samba package 2.0.0, and when trying to run "compile" (located in directory source of the package), after a moment, script fail with the following errors: >ERROR: No locking available. Running Samba would be unsafe >configure: error: summary failure. Aborting config. The following lines are extracted from last lines of

if one uses the "logon drive = " the home directory get mounted on Z: however, when i set "logon drive = H:" the home directory get mounted on H: i red in the PDC Faq, net tested for samba 2.2.X that leaving "logon drive = " would not allow roaming profile, and that it will save the profile in the user computer speeding up the login/logout process. However, i

I have setup Samba default from RedHat 7.2. ver 2.2.1a as a PDC for my windows =network. I all works great except when i try to use MS Word, i get this error "word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error" does anyone know how to remedy this problem. permissio for the my profile is okay, i am able to write when i log out, only when i try to use MS word, this error pops

Hey, Would anyone be able to point me to info on ACL_REVISION3 specifications? My lowly MSDN and SDK seem to only know about ACL_REVISION2. A file on Win 2000 share has revision 2, same file copied to samba share has revision 3. Context: I am looking at the security descriptor for files under Windows 2000.

Is there a way to get information on a print job from the command line? For example: > smb_print_query smbprn.00002.a12345 jobid = pr1000-555 filename = Notepad - sample.txt owner = dan_thibadeau machine = mylaptop size = 1234 bytes or something like that? Thanks, Dan Thibadeau

Dear all, as you already know, it is possible to send short winpopup messages to Win boxes using the command smbclient -M host. If a Win user wants to reply, it should be possible to use the Windows' WinPopUp GUI to reply, but the message gets lost somewhere. For example: smbclient -M winbox Added interface ip=192.1.1.125 bcast=192.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Connected. Type your message,

I set up winbind on one box successfully. Now a friend told me that it might be better to use ActiveDirectoriy (the PDC and all other servers are win2000). What is the difference in both approaches? which is 'better'? I feel that ldap is the more general and cleaner solution. Is that true? My windows-admins will get rid of wins soon. does winbind rely on wins? can libnss-ldap also create

Recently, a problem developed in storing IE5's Temporary Internet Files on our samba exported network scratch space. In tracking it down, I found that the Win2k client attempts to set the ACL of the file "Content.IE5/index.dat". However, the this call ends up setting the mode of index.dat to 0407 (-r-----rwx), thus making the file unmodifiable to the user who created it. (This in

I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps

I know in some ways the answer is RTFM, but I'm not even sure which docs to read or where they are. I've posted about my printing problem before (Win2k SP2 won't print to my Linux server printer), and even though I've had some suggestions, nothing has worked (after a solid week of trying combinations in smb.conf, I'm close to having to drop Linux and go to a complete
