similar to: Looking for a SAMBA share with W2K

I just want to set up a folder on my Linux 7.2 running samba 2.2.1a-4. I have looked at the smb.conf over and over. Cannot find out why my share is not showing up. I just want users on my domain to browse the network and read the folder. I am on an NT domain and the furthest i got was seeing the workgroup testgrp on my network neighborhood. But when i click on the workgroup i get an access

This is a question before i go into production with my setup. Thanks everyone for the assistance i received while setting up Samba. I am going to have an AS/400 mount an NFS directory on my linux server and it is going to be constantly writing to this share. Also about 400 users are going to be connected to this same share through samba, accessing via windows NT. Has anyone heard of any issues

Hi all, I try to explain my strange Samba problem: I've done a linuxbox with Mandrake 8.2 distro; installed Samba 2.2 packages and two printers attached via parallel port: one works with the motherboard built-in parallel port, the other is connected via a pci parallel port card. Both works fine on win2000 clients (and on the linuxbox, too :); on windows 98 clients, both printers are

Dear Andrew, I really need you help on the Samba server I have installed on a Sun workstation with Solaris 2.8. The program have been compiled and installed successfully and all the tests ( including testparm and smbclient -U% -L localhost ) seemed to work fine. But when I tried to browse from my PC which has W2K professional, it failed every time. I can see the workstation listed in my Network

Hi all, I'm using Samba 3.0.2a and after fussing around a bit, I got a W2k client machine to join the domain. My original need to have this setup was to create printer accounting so I put in a print command (see below) in the printers section. Unfortunately, the accounting file wasn't written to. Then I ran testparm -v and noticed there was a 'print command' field in the global

Having trouble connecting to a share on a windows machine from a linux machine. I have been using samba for years to map from linux to windows, but no luck the other way around. I've read lots of how-to's but none of them work and don't even mention the problem I'm having. I always get access denied errors. Tried the samba troubleshooting guide which does talk about access errors,

Let's see I've got a network about 10 PCs running XP and 1 running Linux. I had setup Samba and it was running like a charm. XP pcs could access linux box through network neighborhood and access 2 shared dir and edit/change files. Really not sure what has gone wrong. I am using Samba 2.2.8a I run both smbd and nmbd as daemons. When I run ps -aux they show up. root 1553 0.0

Hello Samba Guru's, I have been fighting with Samba on my RedHat 7.2 machine on my home LAN for about two weeks now. Had no problems getting it working on a machine at work running Debian powerpc 'woody' and Samba 2.2.1a but for the life of me I can't get it working at home. It appears to be a netbios problem. The box shows up in network neighborhood and when I do a net

Hello, I recently upgraded our file server from RedHat6.2 to RedHat7.2. This upgraded our (working) Samba 2.0.x to 2.2.1a-4. Now, the windows98 machines on the network can print without problems. The 2K/NT4 machines cannot print, but they experience no problems with file sharing operations (writeable /home/$USER). The 2K/NT4 machines had been printing fine prior to the upgrade. I won't

RH 7.2, samba 2.2.5-1 installed via RPM. Using winbind. I'm trying to see how much remote printer administration is possible from a w2k box, and I'm having a few problems, several are probably related. HELP! Few quick questions first, before the 2 big questions: Not sure if it was necessary, but I put root = myNTlogin in smbusers file. Is that completely wrong/pointless? For the

Hi all. I hope someone here can help me with a bit of trouble I seem to be having with Samba and Windows 2000. Here's the deal: We are attempting to setup a Red Hat 7.3 machine (SYMPHONY2) running Samba 2.2.3a to act as a File Server and PDC for a number of Windows 2000 workstations. I have followed the instructions from http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html but

All, I have a Linux box with which I am trying to access a share on my W2K workstation. I mount the share successfully and can read files but I am unable to write. Info out of smb.conf security = domain encrypt passwords = yes wins server = x.x.x.x #correct numbers in file dns proxy = yes command to mount the share smbmount //w2kname/share /mountpoint -o username=user/domain,rw

Have you tried smbmount //w2kname/share /mountpoint -o username=user,password=pass,workgroup=domain ?

We are running an HP/UX 11.0 server that is sharing out a filesystem. We used to share it out via NFS and have NFS NT clients map this drive and then perform a network share of it. This allows our application (which runs as an NT/W2K Service) to see this drive and use it. With Samba, I was able to create a batch file that I could run as a service to perform the drive mapping, but because I am

I can give you a suggestion that worked for me for the after reboot no printer access. Make sure your printing daemon starts before your smb starts. It seems that samba won't see an lpq/lpstat if there isn't one. Funny how that works!! Hope this helps, and if I'm way off base, someone let me know...
