Hi everyone, I am using Samba 2.2.3a on a Redhat Linux 7.2 Intel server as a printserver on a W2K PDC network. I have a Xerox 440 printer, an HP 4500 PS and an HP 4550 PS printer using my Samba printserver. I am often receiving the following error message: ERROR: syntaxerror OFFENDING COMMAND: STACK: at which point printing stops and the printers start saying TIMEOUT. Sometimes I can reprint

Hello everyone, I upgraded my Samba server on my RHL 7.2 box from 2.2.3a to 2.2.7. Almost immediately afterwards, all of my admin users suddenly were unable to access the printers that were being shared by Samba. Any idea of what is wrong and how to fix it? The messages I'm getting are that I do not have enough rights. I am using a Windows 2000 Server PDC and a lot of Windows XP Pro, and

Hello everyone, I am having a problem getting Windows XP clients to print to a Xerox DataCenter 440 using Samba as the print server running on Red Hat Linux 7.2. I have installed the driver once and it worked fine. I then tried to add a second XP client, and while it appears to install and work, nothing comes out of the printer. It even seems to disappear at the print server. Any ideas how I

Is there an improved BackupExec Unix agent available that works with Samba? If not, can someone tell me how to work around the lack of the archive bit that Linux has? In particular, RedHat Linux 7.2 is the system I'm looking for help on. I found the following hints in an older version of this newsletter, Samba Digest, Vol. 3, Issue 34, sent March 21, 2003, that had this in it: Yes, we have

I am running RHL 7.2 with Samba 2.2.3a using a W2K DC for authentication via winbind. From the linux box, how can I find out which users are currently connected to my box via Samba? This would help a lot when I need to reboot the server or restart the samba service because of changes that need to immediately go into effect. Thanks Kevin Bramblett

Hello everyone, I need to setup some directories (in RHL 7.2 running Samba 2.2.3a w/ W2K PDC) to allow multiple groups, each of which has different permissions. If this can be done on the Linux side, this would be preferred, but if it has to be done in Samba, any help in understanding how to make this happen is appreciated. I know Windows NT/W2K allows multiple groups and I would think Linux

Hello everyone, I am having a problem printing to a Xerox Document Centre 440 ST from XP pro Clients thru my RedHat Linux 7.2 server running Samba 2.2.3a. The XP Clients connect successfully to the printer queue, sends the file, but nothing comes out of the printer. At least for most XP Clients. I have one PC that does print, but that person is also an admin on the Linux box. I know the PCs

Hi, I have large size Roaming profiles in Win2k and Samba. Samba 2.2.2 is acting as a PDC. Does Win2k load all the files from scratch from the samba server everytime a user log in? Or does Win2k or Samba provides some sort of diff mecanism, so that only modified files are loaded from the Samba server(to speed think up)? Thanks Oliver -- Oliver Schulze L. oliver@samera.com.py Asuncion-Paraguay

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 All, I would like to set up a samba server but using the same user / pass for unix logins and smb logins. This works fine if I use non-encrypted passwords but I have to apply the registry patch to set my win98 clients to use non-encrypted passwords. Could I use pam_smb to authenticate the Linux box against its own smb server then use encrypted smb passwords? I understand that if the smb

I have a question with regards to using Unix groups with samba. This might be easier to explain with an example. Lets say I have two users UserID: GID UserA:Group1 UserB:Group2 etc..... I now have an entry in /etc/group that looks like groupdev::UserA, UserB If I have a directory with group ownership set to "groupdev" and group mode "rws" UserA & UserB cannot create a

but I don't understand what to change and where to change it and how to change it, yet. Any documentation available specifically for rhl 7.2 and samba 2.2.3a would be especially welcome.

I am having difficulties figuring out which group has permissions on directories that I have within a directory.

Hi, Can someone tell me if Samba can limit users to certain amounts of space on specified shares? If so, where would I go to find out how to implement it? I have the following setup: RHL 7.2, Samba 2.2.3a using a Windows 2000 PDC with Winbind. I want to be able to set a limit for each user on certain folders/shares on the Linux box that they are accessing from Windows systems. Thanks, Kevin
