I thought I had read a response to this. Went something like this: Word (and lots of others such apps) do not actually deal with the original file. They create a temporary file which overwrites the original when you save the new document. The 'new' file of course inherits the new editor's ownership. Hope this helps you.

How do I interpret what this mean? @"prfmstrt2+Domain Users" What is prfmstrt2? Is that a group created in /etc/group? I take it the + is a winbind seperator. What is the manner of assigning domain users to have access to a share? Do I still need to create the domain user name in /etc/passwd, assign it to a group in /etc/group? Do I need to use smbgroupedit to make the domain

I have just compiled Samba 2.2.4 with the following configure. ./configure --with-pam --with-winbind I used the same instructions as I did go get Samba 2.2.2 working. I noticed the winbind daemon dies after about a minute. I set the debug to 10 for it and I found some confusing things. Why is it trying to connect to GIGDC1 with a null username? Is this why the connection is refused?

Hi all, I'm having problems uploading printer drivers to my Samba print server. I'm running Suse 7.0 w/Samba 2.2.2. 75% of the time there are no errors uploading drivers using my NT box. On the rest of them, I click on New Driver and select Have Disk. I browse to my driver and click OK. It looks like it's instaling the driver just fine, then after the progress bar gets to

Eric, I started as you instructed and when I get to this command, ./bin/update-packageinfo 2.2.6pre 20020730 I receive the error: no such file or directory next I changed to the RedHat dir. and executed sh makerpms.sh...this appeared to work fine. i could not execute rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.6pre-20020730.i386.rpm what I did execute is: rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.5-1i386.rpm and received the

I have got the printing working with CUPS finally on all of my printer. Took a while but they are printing with no errors. What they are not doing is feeding back the print status, and not all of them are consistent. I have a HP2000C that gives me a failed to open retrying error in the W2k printers window. I have a minolta d350 that always comes back blank, even though there are maybe 50 jobs

I'm converting my NT 4.0 Print Servers to Samba Print Servers. Which printing system should I be using? LPR, LPRng or CUPS. I would love to have some feedback on the advantages and disadvantages or what the Samba Team recommends as a standard for working wih Samba. In case you need it, my system is SuSE 7 kernel 2.2.16 running under VM on s/390. Thanks, Josh Konkol, CNE MCSE Senior

I'm running Samba 3.0.11. Compiled with: ./configure '--with-ads' '--with-pam' '--with-winbind' '--with-smbmount' '--with-shared-modules=idmap_rid' It configured, make and make installed fine. I configured the idmap_rid using the following directives in the smb.conf. ; IDMap Stuff idmap backend = idmap_rid:<DOMAINNAME>=500-100000000

I am running redhat 7.3 with Samba 2.2.4. I was wondering if there was a way to use Samba to resolve my IPs instead of having to add all the entries to my /etc/hosts file? For instance, I would like to be able to do `ping acormany` instead of `ping <IP Address>`. We are currently using WINS on a Windows box to resolve the IPs. As of right now, I can `ping acormany` on a Windows system, but

Is there anyway I can convert a vectors objectname to a string to be used in fx: Monkey<-c(0,0,0,1,1,1) Wax<-c(1,0,1,0,1,0) f<-function(x,y){ table(x,y) } f(Monkey,Wax) so that the printout is not y x 0 1 0 1 2 1 2 1 but Wax Monkey 0 1 0 1 2 1 2 1 -- View this message in context:

I'm trying to get Samba to compile on SLES8 SP3 (Linux under z/VM) and I'm getting the following error. Configure ran fine with "./configure --with-ads --with-winbind --with-krb5", but when I run make I get the following output and error. Using FLAGS = -O -I/usr/local/include -I./popt -Iinclude -I/usr/local/downloads/samba-3.0.2a/source/include

I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps

Is it possible to set default create permissions on certain directories within a share? ie. Create files in the share [something] /folder1/ as 744 but in /folder1/subfolder/ as 777. I thought of creating two shares and having the users manually go into the other share to save thier files, but confusion ensued. Thanks for any help! Ryan

Hello, Many of our NT domain groups have names that contain embedded spaces, like "Domain Admins". When I attempt to use winbind and assign rights via those groups the granting fails. Group names without embedded spaces, like "Domain_Admins" work fine. In smb.conf I've tested specifying the name as: "DOMAIN+Domain Admin" DOMAIN+Domain\ Admin and

I recently (a few weeks ago) installed 1.9.18p8 in order to get better performance with an Access Database, which along with adding a TCP_NODELAY in the [global] section has that working like a charm. Thing that's bugging me now is smbstatus. When I run it I see open files listed when I know that they aren't. The following output shows quite a few files open that aren't really. The

I recently downloaded the samba 2.2.5 update. I ran GZIP and tar. next i did the configuration according to Using Samba by Robert Eckstein, David Collier-Brown, Peter Kelly 1st edition Nov. 1999. Steps were as follows: ./configure make make install added swat to /etc/services swat 901/tcp after all of this it does not appear that samba was actually updated. I looked in samba.org for
