Hi, I have replaced an older AIX system with a new one running AIX 5.3, all the latest patches. It is acting as a PDC (I think irrelevant). The old server was running AIX 4.3.2 with Samba 3.0.14a (upgraded from 2.0.7) , and was working 100% fine. I had the old server running 3.0.14a for 6 weeks prior to the upgrade as part of my migration plan. There are Windows 98 boxes that connect to

Sorry that I will ask a kind of a vague question, but I don't really know how to proceed at the moment: Some of our Samba (1.9.18p10) users experience the following problem: they map a drive to a Samba share (pointing into AFS, if that matters) and see all files/dirs correctly after the password dialog. 'Some time' later (for one user usually about one hour) they try to use the drive

Hi, I moved a disk with ext2fs from a Linux box (SuSE) into my FreeBSD6.2 box. Some directories on that disk are shared to my Windows boxes via v3.0.26a (according to smbd -V). A couple of directories contain a large number of files (hundreds to thousands). The list of files is incomplete using Windows clients or smbclient on FreeBSD. If I copy the directories to a disk using ufs, the file

Hi - A client reported this morning that the "Save As" function in some tax planning software they use "didn't work with the new server" (Samba 1.9.17p2 on intel/linux v 2.0.30). All client machines are Win95 OSR2. Essentially, when you type a name in the save as dialog and press enter, a backslash is added to the end of the new filename (in the dialog, that is),

Hi -- I originally posted the following message about 2 weeks ago -- I don't mean to annoy but really need to solve this problem - if anyone can shed any light on the issue I'd greatly appreciate it. Since the original post, we've run the application with its data on network drives shared from 95, NT, and Novell, and all work fine, as does saving locally. It only fails on a

Hi, I have a strange problem listing a share with, e.g. # ls -al /path/to/share I have a samba-client-3.5.4-68.el6_0.2.x86_64 on a Scientific Linux 6 (as a virtual machine - if it matters) and an samba-3.0.33-0.30.el4 server on a RHEL4. When I try the listed command I get the following in the servers logfile (on log lever = 3): [2011/04/29 16:29:39, 3, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)]

Hi everyone, We use samba 2.0.4 and are very glad of it. However, recently I had to add a backup facility on our network, so we plan to purchase Arcserve IT for NT, in order to backup our servers. We are using mainly 3 Linux servers and 1 NT server, which runs the backup service. However, as Itried to add a simple share on the file server to enable backup, later I encounter problems with

Here's my setup: Caldera Open Linux Lite (kernel 2.0.29) Samba 2.0.4a Windows Domain (Two Windows NT 4.0 Servers -- one PDC, one BDC -- and numerous Windows NT 4.0 Workstations) I can see my Linux box in Network Neighborhood on my Windows NT boxes. I can open the Linux box and see the top level shares available. When I try to open a share I see one or two anonymous folders. Anyone

Hi, I get this error message in the log for a Win98 client which is regularly scanning a directory on the share. When this happens the client no longer can access any data in the shares (security=share), only the toplevel directory structure of a share is still accessible. This seems to be a new problem in 2.0.5/6pre (not sure if it already happened for 2.0.4). Any hints? Franz. Platform:

Could anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong here? I'm using samba-1.9.18p8 on a Linux 2.0.32 box, RedHat 5.0 install. I can descend into this share from a WinNT box just fine, but get the following error messages from a Win95 box.

So I'm trying to copy a file called "Stuffit Standard 8.0.2 X Installer.dmg" from my Panther workstation to a Debian i386 server, running Samba 3.0.2a as packaged under Debian. There's plenty of disk space left, I'm looking at a folder full of files with long names, some containing spaces. When I drag the file from my workstation's local folder to the folder on the

Hi again, I was previously writing for a problem with Arcserve IT and Samba (with linux). The connection drops after 15 minutes. Continuing to understand what's happening, I discovered the following message in the logs: [1999/06/01 14:42:08, 0] smbd/files.c:file_new(85) ERROR! Out of file structures Immediatly I ran into the samba code to try to understand the cause of the problem.

I'm trying to copy a 400 MB file from a Windows 98 host to a FreeBSD 4.5 Samba server providing access to a FAT32 filesystem. I've got "strict allocate = no", but from what I can see with debug set to 10, it is doing a ftruncate which takes about 50 seconds to complete. It appears that Windows gets impatient and generates an error (while Samba is still waiting for the

Hello All, I recently downloaded, compiled, and installed vs 2.0.6 of samba on a Digital Unix 4.0E system. I set up security to point to our single NT domain controller, and set up a user map for those users who don't have identical Unix and NT Domain usernames. I can access all of the shares correctly from an NT client. On Win9x, I can map the shares and see the first level directory,

I'm having problems with one share. It's mounting a directory on an isilon over NFS. I've re-created the setup on the same machine where the data is and that works fine, it's just the existing share gives trouble. I can create a file, but not rename and sometimes not delete. Also saving file from say photoshop result in two empty files being created one with the proper filename

A PC running Windows 95 has a share mounted from a Samba 2.0.7 server running under Mac OS X Server. An attempt is being made to copy a file on the PC called suse.iso to a subdirectory of the share (faberlab) on the Samba server. The PC hangs a bit and eventually complains that it can't create the file. Here is the debug log starting from the moment the copy has begun... [2000/06/02
