There has been some correspondence about getting the file names displayed with lpq instead of the smbXXXXX name. The -J option works, but, with some documents, notably Microsoft Word and Corel WP9, the application sends a long preamble, such that the file name is never seen in the queue when listed with lpq. eg: Microsoft Word - PRINT FILE NAME.doc So, to fix this up, at least for word documents,

If I have the POSIX acl support complied into my system, will installing the rpm detect this and install acl support with the samba 2.2.2 rpm for redhat? Any ideas would be great. If this is not possible, I will compile. But it would be nice to know if this is true. Thanks gang. Wade Winright "Open the pod bay doors HAL!!!" -Arthur C.

Hello all, I am looking for a way to move a massive amount of data from an NTFS filesystem to an ext3 filesystem in order to move a samba box in to replace a win2K server. If anyone has any ideas or pointers, or links to follow, I would appreciate it. This is the first step, after this I get to figure out how to incorporate this into an EMC SAN. Whoopeee!!!! Thanks, Wade Winright "Open the

Not to many days ago, somebody posted a "refresh" script that I believe allowed you to refresh samba without dropping currently connected users. If this is correct, could someone repost please? I seem to have misplaced my copy and now need it fairly bad. Thanks, Wade Winright "Build a better mantrap, and the rats will beat a path to your door..." -Neil Fallon

OK, First, thanks for all of the help recently. I appreciate it. But...I have just implemented the cvs code as to be able to use the 'use client driver' option because win nt/2k machines have been seeing an 'Access denied, unable to connect' error for the print queues and this will apparently fix this. I will describe my setup and what I have done thus far: RH 7.1 Samba 2_2 cvs

Hi, I recently tried to use ACLs with samba. XFS is running, I can set ACLs using setfacl and read them with getfacl, no problem so far. Samba compiled fine with '--with-acl-support'. Now I set up a share with 'nt acl support = yes', put there a file and added an acl with 'setfacl': root@edjo[ACLTEST]# getfacl datei.txt # file: datei.txt # owner: odenbach # group:

Hello, I would like to upgrade my samba version 2.2.1a to 2.2.5!! Well I am trying to find a rpm for SuSE 7.3, but was not successfull yet.

Hi, I am looking for a list of theses special magic numbers that a samba server (or a windows box) registers with at a wins server. I already know of <00> as a ordinary name, <1b> as a domain. But what's the rest? Is there a list anywhere? Perhaps somewhere in the docs? I have searched them but haven't found anything yet. Thanks, Christopher --

Hi, trying to investigate my xfs-acl problem I think I have found the missing part: In smbd/uid.c the function "sid_to_uid" resolves SIDs to unix user names. This is done as follows: - First the domain part of the SID is compared to the local domain (if the SID belongs to the samba server it can be resolved locally) - In any other cases winbindd is asked This works well if the

Hi, I'm using debian woody with samba (2.2.3a-12.3). After installing 2.2.8a everything that worked, still works. What didn't work, still doesn't work. Sharing files works properly.

Hi everybody, I have a dilemma here about the user accounts. We have all the accounts at a NIS server. My samba PDC is another machine (different from the NIS server). What are my options for managing the accounts? 1) Central management (LDAP) 2) Keep different password files (passwd/smbpasswd) Are there any different options?? If I use the second option (2 - keep different password files),
