I'm trying to run Samba on a gigabit network. On the server side I've got Samba 2.2.1 running on an sgi Origin200 with a gigabit ethernet card plugged into a gigabit switch, and the files are being served off a fibrechannel raid array. On the client side I have a windows 2k box with a gigabit card plugged into the same switch. Both machines and the switch claim that everything is

Is it possible to have the users password on the Unix end to be different to that of the Windows client user. Example: I have a Windows 2000 user who logs onto his PC as "fredblogs" with a password of "password1". On the Unix Samba end I have the user "fredblogs" setup with a password of "password2". I am then unable to access the Unix server, if I reset

I'm having a slight problem with Samba. For a few months now I've used Samba on my Linux box to access my songs on my Win98 machine over a 10MBit Ethernet without any problems. Now that I've upgraded to Win2K, my uploads are down to about 30k/s and my downloads to about 1k/s. Changing SO_SNDBUF to 1200 made the uploads quite a bit better, jolting back and forth but averaging about

Is it possible to trace Samba authenticated user? That is, after a user has been authenticated versus a Samba acting as PDC, is it possible to know if such user is still connected to the Microsoft network or they have been disconnected? What I would like to do is to use Samba as authentication server in order to grant the access to other services (for example Internet navigation through a proxy)

hello all does anyone know of a utility convert OGG to MP3 and prehapes MP3 to OGG? While i use ogg for everything on my computer, my discman only plays MP3 files, so a nice program where i can drag and drop folders to reencode to MP3 would be a very nice thing to have indeed. Kinda like oggdrop but mp3drop. if there isn't i might just attempt to write one (i'm just 1st year

Using Ubuntu 6.06.1, Samba 3.0.22, VMWare on Win2003 server. I can connect using with admin user and ip address, but using admin and netbios name prompts for password and results in access denied. WINS is enabled in Samba config. Does Vmware or Ubuntu introduce weird problems or is something else going on? Running the net stat command results in error 5 trying to resolve netbios name.

Oops I forgot to add: (with w2k client) does samba 2.2.3a work as a PDC with a w2k machine connecting to it???? Thanks again John -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Ok, here's a simple question, (I just rejoined this list so apologies if it has been asked a million times before). Our Company runs SAMBA 1.9-18p1 from a USS (Unix System Services) on an IBM Mainframe. I used to have WinNT 4.0, and I could access Files on Windows Explorer through SAMBA with no problems. Now I updated one of my workstations to WinXP Pro., and - no access to the Samba

If I want to make two servers use the same encrypted passwords can I share the smbpasswd file via NFS? Will updates/locking work correctly? Is there an alternative?

Hi, My name is Tom Faulhaber. I am the network administrator at a small company in Providence,RI. I am running Samba 2.2.2 on a Redhat 6.1 machine on a Novell 4.21 network. The workstations are Win98SE. The Linux box is being used for the company intranet (Apache 1.3.22). Everything runs fine, however I am completely stumped on one issue (so far). That issue is: network connectivity. If I

Greetings, I was reading over the documentation online for using SAMBA as a PDC, and in the section about creating machine trust accounts is talks about having to add machine accounts to the /etc/passwd file. The text also mentions that future versions of SAMBA will remove this requirement: "Because Samba requires machine accounts to possess a UNIX uid from which an Windows NT SID can

Hi, I was using samba 2.0.7 veersion for a while without any problem. This morning, suddenly, many windows (nt/98) cannot connect the samba server on our Linux (RedHat 6.2) server. Then, I downloaded the version 2.2.4, extracted, configure it, make, make install according to the document. Then I test it by running ./testparm it lists all of shared folders. Then, I run ./smbclient -L

Hi everybody, I posted the following on 'comp.protocols.smb' newsgroup but got no answer. I'm now trying this way. On one side, I have a Solaris 7 box running Samba 2.2.0 and on the other, a W2K machine sharing to everyone in full access mode the contents of its C:\Public directory. Is there a way to run a UNIX script or command on this Windows share? I tried using

When I enable Samba on my Linux box, the workgroup "Workgroup" eventually disappears from site in both the GUI "Network Neighbourhood" and at the W2000 cmd line "net view". It takes a little while for this to happen, and initially it works well. The Linux Box information can be found at the url below. But a short description of the setup is as follows: * Network is

OK, so I looked through all the archives and still can't find a solution. My server is running RedHat 7.2 with all the latest patches, Samba is also latest 2.2.3a with domain masters set as "yes" and passwords NOT set as encrypt, because when I do turn it on, none of the Win98 boxes can log on (even when I tried to create non-blank password account). All Win98 boxes login

Hi, I would like to ask, will the roaming profile directory in C:\Documents and Settings\username, will be deleted once the user logs out? Mine isn't. I'm worried that, for a thousand users, one workstation would have a thousand directories? I believe those are not local profiles, since it is saved into the server every time the user logs out.

I want my Windows account to interact with my Linux user account. My usernames on both machines used to be the same, but now corporate is changing our name format (oh boy!). Now that the usernames no longer sync, Samba is refusing me access to my Linux box. When I check the logs, it claims that it can't find my new Windows username in the UNIX passwddb. When I manually add my new Windows
