similar to: Linux EXT3 support? problems flushing?

Paul, I don't know if this helps but I'm running RH7.2 on ext3 with Samba 2.2.1a & Quotas, I haven't heard any users complain yet, (300 total users). I don't believe any of them are using Outlook though, but they are using the Samba for their Groupwise MailArchive. Hope this helps... -Dusty > -----Original Message----- > From: Gerald Carter

When 2.2.4 was released, I updated my cvs and did ./configure and make (no special options). Since I came in somewhat early today and nobody was around I did the make install. Everything ran fine until I tried to load a particular file and I'm receiving the following error and unable to open the file on a network share. If I place the file on a local drive it loads fine. Permissions and

Hi guys, I'm getting the following errors during 'make' (configure went just fine) Compiling passdb/pdb_ldap.c passdb/pdb_ldap.c: In function `ldap_open_connection': passdb/pdb_ldap.c:75: `LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_HARD' undeclared (first use in this function) passdb/pdb_ldap.c:75: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once passdb/pdb_ldap.c:75: for each function it appears in.)

Hello all, I've got a strange problem with Samba 2.2.4. I'm able to associate print drivers to printers (raw queue in cups). My clients are able to see that the drivers belong to the printers, and they download them, but as soon as the server reboots, I lose my driver associations and I need to once again specify a driver on the windows end. The Print server was an upgrade from Samba

My samba server works in a NT 4.0 domain. The users can print fine (mostly Win9x). Now i'm trying to use Win2K workstation to upload drivers. I can see the printers, the properties are available but we i try to add a driver it fails with the following error : "Can't install driver Intel Windows 2000. Can't compleet statement" (translated from dutch). I've include my

I have been using samba 2.2.2 for quit awhile running with security= share in my company. I looked into the /var/lock/samba and found a growing file unexpected.tdb. Is there a way to trim it down while samba is running or do I have to start and stop samba? Is this an expected behavior? TIA Joseph Loo

In the documentation the "oplocks = yes" option is give in an example, as the default for this parameter. However, I needed to turn oplocks off, and so assumed that the command "oplocks = no" would work. It doesn't, instead I found that "oplocks = false" does. There needs to be some boolean fixing done, or at least documentation should reflect this strangeness.

I have compiled both my kernel (2.4.17) and samba (2.2.3a) to support ACL/EAs. It looks like it has gone well, but I get one message that worries me, but I don't know if it should or not. checking whether to support ACLs... checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes checking for ACL support... yes Using posix ACLs checking for acl_get_perm_np... no As you can see, the last line is where my

Has any version of Samba been tested for compatibility with the new Windows Active Directory? We will be upgrading our NT domain to 2000 and creating Active Directory. Currently our solaris samba 2.0.7 server is configured to authenicate users from our NT domain controllers. Will we encounter problems with the 2000 upgrade?

FYI... I've uploaded some RPMS for RedHat 6.2 & 7.3 to aid in testing the 2.2.6pre2 snapshot. They are available for download from http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/redhat/ Enjoy. cheers, jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team

At my work, I've been pushing linux as a server solution for quite some time. They've decided to give it a go, and the main company file server is now a piii 933 with 512Mb RAM, a promise 6 channel RAID5 controller (IDE), and 6 x 80Gb drives. It's running RedHat 7.1 (with the usual kernel updates to 2.4.10), with samba 2.2.1a and the latest Reiser FS... Now at the moment, we

FYI... We've put up a snapshot of the current SAMBA_2_2 code as 2.2.6pre1 for testing. The distribution is available from http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/pre/samba-2.2.6pre1.tar.bz2 ( a gzipped version is also available ). This is a non-production release made available for testing purposes only. The relavant section of the release notes follow. The full test is available from

Hi All, To clerify the problem, firstly I have to give you some details of our environment.. Linux Redhat 7.3, Samba 2.2.4, Win2000 workstations... We are trying to use Linux servers as file and print servers. Our client are Windows2000 workstations which will use Linux boxes as file and print servers... Problem with : winbindd Signal 11 error Suspect : When winbind starts, it can get all

A stupid question. With new printing system (spoolss) how people restrict access to the printers ? It was clear with the old system when each printer was in a separate share. I could assign a list of valid users for each printer share. TIA. -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC. (416) 535-0123 ext. 1352

I have a SUN/Solaris system that functions like a web proxy server. In our corporate environment, PC client/brower can access a web server using URL with WINS name as well DNS. Can Samba be configured to on the system to support/resolve WINS names by pointing to corporate WINS servers - in addition to DNS (configured in /etc/resolv.conf)? Thanks.

Howdy! Got a wierd one here.... on 2.2.1a with "nt acl support = yes" I do not seem to have any problems... however, when I do 2.2.2, I get issues with deleting roaming cache in Windows 2000/SP2 on logoff...but, when I set "nt acl support = no" everything is way cool. now on 2.2.3a it does the same thing and on 2.2.4-pre also does the same thing. The issue with this is it

Thank you Andrew, you pointed me in the right direction. Part of what I m doing to try to get Netatalk to authenticate through Winbind was the following: 4) to install Winbind files: cp nsswitch/libnss_winbind.so /lib # this is the major one - solaris nss is different to linux. ln -s libnss_winbind.so nss_winbind.so.1 cp nsswitch/pam_winbind.so /lib/security Once I deleted /lib/libnss_winbind.so

Hi, I'm working on a printing project consolidating a bunch of NT machines with a Solaris printing machine. I'm concerned about the scalability if I increase the number of printers from say 20 too 300. How does it effect the response time for looking up and changing device setting etc. Thanks Gunnar Gunnarsson
