Hi, Having reset-up a print server from installation disks today, I did something stupid and blindly copied the contents of /etc/samba from the previous installation into the new installation. Now smbd refuses to start (nmbd starts OK).

Hello, I have just downloaded Samba 2.2.7.a and I have tried to set it up on AIX 4.3.3 and am not having luck. Last week I installed samba on my linux machine and it works pretty well. The boss asked on Friday if I could set it up on my AIX machine. I have samba installed in /usr/local/samba. After running /usr/local/samba/smbd -D and /usr/local/samba/nmbd -D I can do this ps -aef |

Hi, I know this isn't a supported platform or anything, but I'm trying to get Samba 2.2.5 going on my Playstation 2 (mipsel-linux). There's an RPM for 2.0.something on the PS2-Linux CD, but I'm always a fan of running the latest version.

I'm running SunOS 5.8 and I've installed Samba 2.2.4. Samba will not start and the following error is in the log.smbd. I have debug set at level 10. I have perused the archives for help but to no avail. I have also read thru DIAGNOSIS.txt. Of course test 3 fails because samba is not running. I checked the config file with testparm and it's ok. Your help would be greatly

Hello, I wanted to let you know that I'm able to succesfully work with 20000 users and several concurrent logon sessions. Instead of using /etc/smbpasswd or /etc/passwd, I chose to use /var/db/password.db. I created this file using the makefile which is located in the /var/db directory. I suppose this is an indexed version of /etc/passwd and works a lot faster than the regular flat file. Also

Another question ... When using the LDAP SAM, should smpasswd change the POSIX password? The reason I ask, is because when I do a change or add with smbpasswd, I see that the POSIX password does not change, but I throught that it should ... is there something wrong with my installation ... another reason I ask, is because I keep having little problems when changing passwords from

mksmbpasswd.sh does not create accounts with the X flag in the password flags field. Does this X matter, and if so, what does it mean?

Hello. I am almost at the end of my rope right now. Here is the deal. I initially installed Redhat 7.1 with the version of Samba server is came with (2.0.7 or something) I setup everything fine, but when it came to setting the machine up as a PDC, I recieved an error that could be fixed by a patch. Instead, I decide to re-install RH 7.1 without Samba, and get the latest distro. I download 3.0.1

Hi, I'm using samba-3.0.28-0.fc8. I'm trying to build a file server for 100 users. I created a perl script that automatically adds the 100 users plus their passwords with success. Now I'm having difficulty creating a script using the smbpasswd command because passwords must be entered in stdin. I also tried smbpasswd -s option but it asks passwd in stdin. Is there a way that I can use
