I've to migrate a NT4 PDC to an samba PDC (running samba 3.0.0beta2 on a debian/GNU/linux box). Samba is already setup and working as a BDC. When I try to perform: net rpc vampire -S PDC all existing userSIDs are put into samba's 'passwd.tdb'. The problem is now, how to get a working userSID <-> UID mapping: The existing userSID have RID parts in the range of

Hi! I replaced a server running RH7.3 and samba 2.2.XX , with a server runnning centos4.2 and samba 3.0.20 . We use several iPAQ handheld that connects to a share on the file server, and then open a file from a network share.

Installed Samba 3.0.10 via 'pkgadd' on Solaris 2.6 - previously running Samba 2.2.8. It starts up and SWAT confirms that it is running and I am using the same smb.conf but I am unable to connect to a share via PC. Message "\\s080 is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access

Hi, I've used Samba several years without any problems. Last week I added a new disk to my system, and Samba started to behave very strange. It's slow in terms of establish a connection and time to list directories. I've tried to resolve the problem without success. No other daemon has problems, both ftp and http works fine as well as internal communication. Below I've attached

Ok folks, Here is the deal. I have posted to the news groups several times and gotten not a single thing. I have been trying since march to get 2.2.8a working on sol2.5.1 with winbind to do the authentication but it has failed miserably. Winbindd starts but fails to create the /tmp/.winbindd/pipe file and bombs like a daisycutter. But if I run winbindd like this " truss -aefo /tmp/file

Hello, I'm having a problem installing a printer on a Window XP box (the problem also occurs in Win2000 SP2). The symptoms are: Add a printer -> network -> type in \\pcprint\picasso You get a message that there is no driver for this printer on the server and to either click OK to continue or Cancel.

Hi, based on Bart Lagerweij's ( www.nu2.nu ) bootdisk, I've created a small DOS system that users can start by booting from network ( PXE ). The system is configured to map a network drive from a Suse 9.0 Pro / Samba server with various tools on it. The connection is anonymous. Until recently everything worked fine but suddenly there are strange errors: When I try to launch an EXE from

Hello, I have recently installed Samba 3.0.2 on Solaris 8. All is OK except for Windows NT. I can't open the user's shares on the Samba box. I get : D:\ n'est pas accessible Erreur reseau inattendue (Unexpected network error) I have already set encrypt passwords = No unicode = No in smb.conf and the corresponding register key on NT I have a level 3

Hi, I am in dire need of some help. I have no problems connecting to shares with my W95/98 clients, but big problems with W2K. The same username / password is used on both the PC and SAMBA (and NIS - I am using Soalris 2.7 for my SAMBA server). When I try to connect to a share from the W2K client, I get the message "Access Denied". I have looked set nmbd / smbd to run at debug level 9

Prior to upgrading from RH7.0 to RH7.3 our Samba filserver worked perfectly. Now we are having locking problems. Initially Iused the same samba binaries built on RH70, I tried rebuilding Samba and reinstalling but it had no effect. If user bon opens an M$-Office file they frequently get a 'file is already in use by bob'. Sure enough smbstatus -L shows the file locked by bob, but bob

I'm trying to log into a problem server. The server is running an old kernel - 2.6.10 - and samba 3.0.25C. When I try to mount a share from another server running samba 3.0.26b, I get: root@Lethe:/tmp/log/samba# mount.cifs //kahn/yan /tmp/x --verbose -o user=xxx,pass=yyy,ip=10.8.0.1 parsing options: user=xxx,pass=yyy,ip=10.8.0.1 ip address 10.8.0.1 override specified ip address specified

Hey Guys and Gals, I'm wondering if the quotas.c file is supposed to fix the problem where a Linux x86 system running with the quota software causes corrupt files to be written by Windows clients. I compiled it in and it didn't seem to make a difference for the following problem. In other words, if I enable quotas on my RH6.2 / 2.2.16-22 kernel box and then write a file via Samba/Windows

Hi All, When I copied one file from NT4.0 to Linux through samba with 'copy' command in NT4.0, the file was always corrupted. Size of the file copied into Linux was always about 4G. If I copied it through Windows Explorer, it was OK. It seems samba cannot process the "Write Raw" request sent by 'copy' command correctly when file size is larger than 4G bytes. Thanks

Hello, I've got a problem with printing on a Windows 2K box. Printing from that box to a samba server via the normal print mechanism works fine. The problem is when the person needs to print to a lpt port. The capture succeeds, but when the file is copied to lpt2 it never gets printed. There are other machines that can do the capture and copy to the lpt port but they are Win 9x. The

I'm running Windows Server 2008 and trying to connect to Samba 3.0.37 on Opensolaris. The Samba system is a member of a Windows Server 2008-based Active Directory domain - it was able to join the domain just fine - and Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 can connect, but Windows Server 2008 SP2 cannot connect. The log file is posted below - I'm guessing the key is the

Hello Guys, Having a bit of trouble transferring an 18GB file for backup purposes to a Samba Server. I think the 2GB limit issue was resolved a long time ago?

Hi! I'm currently hunting a strange problem and looking for help! I have a samba3 fileserver (currently samba-3.0.20b, but problem can be reproduced with samba-3.0.7, but _not_ with samba2 like 2.2.8a), and I see performance problems when writing files with MS word 2002 SP3 from a NT4.0 (SP6a) workstation. Saving even the smallest file takes more than 10 seconds! Copying files with Windows
