similar to: Can't access a linux server using a Win2K client

Hello all. A couple of days back I posted a question about how I could get a Win2K client to mount a share from my linux Samba server. I was getting the familiar "account is not authorized to log in from this station" error on the Win2K box, despite a set-up that supposedly allowed guest logins *and* implemented the registry hack for clear-text passwords on the Win2k box. While I

Howdy! Just downloaded the Binary RPM for Red Hat 7.2. Seemed to install fine (after I removed 2.2.3a) but when I try to use SWAT in Konquerer, it comes back and says that the link is broken to the machine name. I've tried: http://localhost:901, http://[ip]:901 and http://[machine name]:901. I do have SWAT checked in the Service configuration. Any particular reason it would do that?

Is there a Samba package for Redhat Linux 7.3? I only see packages for 7.2 and below. If package not yet available for 7.3, is there an estimated time that one will be created? Thanks, Huy -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hello everyone. I have two linux servers* that each have four directories mounted as SMBFS shares from a Windows 2000 Server. For the most part, this set-up is working great, however, there have been occasional hiccups. Every so often, one of the servers, LINUX-ONE, logs a couple of Samba-related errors. The following is an example: Jun 30 06:30:45 mx-two kernel: smb_trans2_request:

Hello all. I have two linux machines, Red Hat 7.1 with kernel 2.4.9-34 (Red Hat stock), with Samba 2.2.4 installed. Both of these machines usa Samba to mount several shares from a common Windows 2000 server. These machines also run Courier IMAP. For those not familiar with email systems, Courier uses the "Maildir" method of email storage and retrieval; each message is stored as a

Hello all. Our system consists of two linux machines, each running Red Hat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.9-34), using SMB to mount multiple shares hosted by a Windows 2000 Advance Server. smbclient from Samba 2.2.5 is used to do the actual mounting. Over the weekend, a number of files on these SMBFS shares were created with incorrect timestamps (modification times). In some cases, the timestamps were off by

I am a new Samba user - I just installed on Solaris 8 and (finally) got smbd and nmbd running. Now how do you create a user in Samba? The documentation provides tons of information about smbadduser and smbpasswd except *how to use it.* Any help is greatly appreciated. For example, how to I create a Samba "root" user if I am the Unix "root" user? Thanks -- JW

This seems like it should have an obvious answer, but I haven't seen a clear word one way or the other in the man pages or other documentation that I have read - is smbmount's behavior in any way governed by the smb.conf file? The reason I ask is one of the other sysadmins here has been trying to figure out ways to improve smbfs performance, and he came across the speed.txt file in

I have installed Samba 2.2.1.a. From windows it works allright. From Linux I can browse with smb://server. But I do not have write permissions. When I open a console and in this console enter the command smbclient //server/folder I do have write permissions. Someone told me to mount samba with mount -t smb -o username=***,pasword=*** \\192.168.0.1\folder /destination, but when I do this I get

Hello, all. A while back I posted a question about an issue, but did not get any replies. I understand this might not be something anybody has a definite answer for, and I understand I may not be offering the right information. If that is the case, please let me know what information I can provide, and please don't hesitate to offer any suggestions about what could be causing this problem.

Hello all, I'm in the middle of the migration of an old web-server to a new CentOS. Let me explain how things work now, I have a group of devs that use the same user to work on the sites, this have a problem because we never know who alter witch file. Most of the files on the old web-server are owned like devuser:apache and in the new one I setup LDAP-Auth to get the real users but the

Two days ago I got a whole slew of smbfs errors in my system logs, all stemming from an apparent inability to read two files.

Hi, This is probably a newbie question, but here goes. I am using samba to mount some windows box's hard drives to a linux box for the purpose of doing backups on the windows boxes. This is done late at night and I am SURE that no one is using the windows boxes.... While backing up I often see tar complain as follows: "tar: IssRating/C4dll.dll: file changed as we read it" or

Fellow SAMBA lovers: I've been using 'mount -t smbfs blah blah' for over a year to do backup/restore. I recently upgraded SAMBA from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3a and the NT Server I was attaching to from v4 to Win2k. Now 'mount -t smbfs' returns an error. However, smbmount with the same parameters works, so I just changed the scripts to use smbmount. I suspect it's the Windoze server

Where should the specs go for code in the "lib" directory of a Rails app? I made a folder, "spec/lib/", for storing such specs, and RSpec automatically picks them up when run using "rake spec". Before I go ahead and patch rspec_on_rails/lib/autotest/ rails_rspec.rb so that autotest can monitor these specs I''d like to ask whether this is the

Hi ! I''m no expect when it comes time to configure Apache. I just enabled page caching in my Rails app, and am now looking at making Apache serve the cached files instead of calling into Rails. I know Mongrel is able to serve cached files if it finds them, but I''d like Apache to do it. Looking at .htaccess, there is this section: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^$ index.html

The netfilter coreteam presents: iptables version 1.4.10 the iptables release for the 2.6.39 kernels. Due to some mistakes on my side we didn't have a release for longer than expected, so this contains a rather large number of changes. Changes include: - various bugfixes, cleanups and documentation updates - a new "guided option parser" from Jan, replacing a lot of the

Seems our current libarchive? That support FreeBSD's tar implementation has a bug where it can create archives it cant read back. This can be seen by simply creating an empty tar.gz file and then trying to expand or list it. In doing the above you get the following error: tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format N.B. gtar can list and expand the created file

I have Samba running on my web server (it's not a major file server or anything) so that I can access files on it from my local network. Mainly things like I can view my webalizer pages thru a local machine, or to copy files over for installation. Anyway - every 2-3 hours, I 'lose' the connection and have to reboot the WinXP machine (yeh, I know - 'Rule #1 of Microsoft - When in
