Has anyone on this list been able to configure samba in such a way so that it will authenticate to windows 2K acitve directory. What I want to do is this: install samba 2.2.7 onto a Redhat linux 7.3 system, then configure samba (I think using something called smb_pam) so that it will join the windows active directory domain. Is such a thing possible? Has anyone here done it? I can't find

Hi, I have a doubt if I use the mke2fs option the right way. I formatted two different disks, one with $ mke2fs -b 4096 -E stride=16 -m 1 -T news /dev/sdd and the other with $ mke2fs -b 4096 -E stride=16 -m 1 -T largefile4 /dev/sde sdd is supposed to get files between 8k and 16k. sde will handle files with a fixed size of 32Mb. Then I tried this : $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mount-sdx/file bs=4k

Wow, it takes a really long time to make a 2TB ext2fs. Are there better-than-default options that could be used for a large filesystem? mke2fs 1.34 (25-Jul-2003) Filesystem label= OS type: Linux Block size=4096 (log=2) Fragment size=4096 (log=2) 244203520 inodes, 488382016 blocks 24419100 blocks (5.00%) reserved for the super user First data block=0 14905 block groups 32768 blocks per group,

Hi, I have an ext3 file system created with -T largefile4 option. Now it is running out of inode but it's only about 10% full. - Is there a way now to increase the number of inode without making a new file system? - If not, I am thinking about shrinking the file system, and then use the free up space to create a new file system with more inodes, and move the data over. Since I am

We have a network with Windows NT/2000, SGI's, Linux, Macintosh, AIX. Our user account/passwords for all our machines is handled by NIS on an AIX machine. Our unix machines autheticate through NIS. Our windows machines authenticate by loging on to an NT server acting as the PDC, and that PDC has a service installed on it called "WinDD NIS" (made by Tektronix I think) which contacts

here's our setup: 1) Windows NT4.0 server/PDC 2) Multiple Windows NT4.0 (SP 6) and Windows 2000 (SP 2) 3) AIX 4.3 file server running samba (1.9) currently we are trying to make a change in all users windows profiles. we are trying to switch from roaming to local. thats easy engouh, but we also want to redirect the windows desktop and my docs folder to our network file server (samba) so that

Hi, I want to use an ext3 Partition (~1TB) for Mail Storage, this means tons of small files. Has anyone recommendations about blocksize, inodes, etc. for mkfs.ext3 ?

Yes, I get more than 30MB/s performance. The benchmark I use (NetBench) is essentially CPU bound, such that a faster processor = faster performance. With a very fast hardware config (dual 3.2GHz processors), I've been able to hit around 100MB/s. Changing the RAM or other attributes does not buy me much, it seems that processor power is the bottleneck (at least in my case). When doing your

Hello, I looked through the archives a bit and could not find anything relevant, if you know otherwise please point me in the right direction. I have a ~3T ext3 filesystem on linux software raid that had been behaving corectly for sometime. Not to long ago it gave the following error after trying to mount it: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, or too many

Hi! I'm new to the list. I have a problem with mounting my home directory since my PC crashed. I hope that I can get some help on this list as I don't know much of ext3 myself. The mount command for my /home gives me the following output: # mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/tmp/ mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda6, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info

Hi, We are considering samba 3.0.1 as a replacement for our old-hag Windows NT4.0 Server PDC. However, we do want some policy control, and from the samba 3.0.0 documentation (23.3), it says the only current functional policy is the password expirey. Is this still true in samba 3.0.1? Can an NT4.0 server be a backup domain controller to samba 3.0.1 PDC? That way we can keep the NT4 machine

ive got several hundred user accounts in NIS that i need to get into the smbpasswd file. since samba doesn't actually use NIS, but can only be in sync with it, what is the best way to get all these passwords into smbpaswd? I'd hate to have to have all users re-enter their passwords... anyone done this before? thanks in advance, alex ---

Subject isn't exactly samba, but samba people usually know a lot about windows bat scripting. Here's my problem: Currently our domain login script is doing this (among other things): ifmember.exe "WINDOWS-DOMAIN\Projects" if errorlevel 1 ( net use p: \\server1\projects ) This works fine. The problem is I'm moving the projects storage to a different server called server 2

Hi, I have Centos server 4.5 with 3.3TB raid disk on a 3 ware controller. Now the problem is that I am not able to see the partition in full since it shows only 1.2TB. I have created a partition with Parted and (GNU PARTED) and I have seen it is 3.3 T there. However I have to make this partition on ext3 with make2efs j /dev/sda1 and after the formatting it went to 1.2T. Could someone

All, I'm requesting comments from the expert readers of ext3-users on these notes for tuning ext3 for performance. Most helpful would be feedback pertinent to RHEL 5; as XFS isn't supported under Red Hat Enterprise Linux these items are an attempt to match XFS performance with ext3. These items were culled from a number of sources. Will they be effective for achieving the performance

I'm currently working with a testing system that involves running mkfs.ext3 on some pretty large devices on a regular basis. This is getting fairly painful, and I was wondering if there was some way to speed this up. Understood that the end result might be a filesystem that has less of a safety factor (say, fewer superblock backups) but the tradeoff might be worth it in this case. David

I am trying to write a C function to create a vector of integers that can be used by the R calling function. I do not know the size of the vector in the R calling function. (Well, actually, I have an upper limit on the size, but that is so large that R cannot allocate it. What I'm doing in the function is to do a sieving procedure, and the result will be small enough to fit into my

Hi, samba-3.0.9-1.3E.2 on RHEL3-AS. Let's say we have a samba 3 PDC (workgroup = testdomain) on linux.host.1, and the passwd backend is NIS ypbind that binds to ypserv on liunx.host.2. Further, linux.host.2 also runs samba 3, not as a PDC, but rather points it's authentication to an NT4 PDC (workgroup = realdomain). Even further, linux.host.2 also holds the user /home directories.

Dear R developers, I have found the following bug with readline() in R 0.63.3: if you execute the menu-function and then the readline() function, then readline() prompts "Selection:" > a <- readline() hello > a [1] "hallo" > a <- menu(c("a", "b"), title="bitte:") bitte: 1:a 2:b Selection: 2 > a <- readline() Selection:
