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

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

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,

Hello- We've been working on upgrading our servers from Samba 2.0.6 to Samba 2.2.1a and have run into a problem with a change in Samba's behavior when NT ACL support is turned off. I was hoping someone on the list could provide some insight about what is going on. First, some background. On our main file servers, we've been running Samba 2.0.6 with NT ACL support turned off

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.1a (cvs-06.08.2001) running as PDC for my domain, and it is doing fine. But in the broadcast domain there are severeal other workgroups (no domains) with their own Domain Master Browsers. Additionaly there are always a lot of unconfigured computers not under my control, which build their own workgroups (e.g. mdkhome, workgroup...). My problem is now, how do I prevent all

hello everybody, I'm planning a quick upgrade from 2.2.1a to 2.2.2, and I want to know which files from $PRIVATEDIR (and others) I need to keep...

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

I just loaded Samba 2.2.1a (previously running 2.0.7) and am having major problems. The load on my server keeps climbing (got as high as *95* this morning.

Hi... I got this new server at work that I have to get 100% up and running by tomorrow. It's running Samba 2.2.1a on SuSE 7.3 Pro It's supposed to be VPN - File and Printer Server The printers are: One OCE 700C / CS90 color copier and One OCE 3165 And there is only one problem left. I can install the printer drivers for Win9x & NT on the samba server. But I can't figure out how to

Okay, I've had some fun there. Let me tell I am no samba pro, so the patch below _should be tested and tested again_ in _your_ environment before doing anything close to putting your patched samba into production. It can possibly break everything. You have been warned. The mail is somehow longish, because sending a quick (and dirty) patch without any explanation seems wrong to me. And

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

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

Hello, Sorry for the crosspost on both lists. I've just finished to install a Linux RedHat 2.4.2 / Samba 2.2.1a server, which acts as a PDC server for about 30 windows 9X/NT/2000 clients. It works ok, but 2 problems remain, which I suspect to be bounded : 1) I can't start the user manager for domains on a Win NT4 workstation SP5 box, i have the following error message (translated form

Hello, After I added a user with smbpasswd -a user, I get a rather strange entrie in smbpasswd: user:1012:lmhast:nthash:[UX ]:LCT-00000000: What does the X mean in "UX"? Why is the time (last change time) not correct? I'm running samba 2.2.2 on a RH 7.1 machine. UPDATE: This problem does not seem to occur with samba 2.2.1a. Any ideas? Werner

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
