I'm trying to work out why I have the following problem, and I'd really appreciate any help you guys can offer: I have a samba share mapped as drive o: to an NT4 server, which happens to be the machine that takes our backups. What I want to do is back up the data on the Samba share too. Simple enough, you'd ahve thought, and I can back up stuff from a Windows share fine. But,

(Oups! I forgot to send it to the list so everyone could laugh about it. Sorry Vicky for disturbing directly) Good Morning, Vicky! Seems your smb.conf is messed up a little. As I can see you're using security = domain. With this configuration the smbpasswd-file/feature isn't need at all. Authentication is done encrypted with the domain user database, not with the smbpasswd file. The

I'm trying to get Samba 2.2.3a (as distributed with SuSE 8.0) working inside our NT domain . I'm prompted for a username and password when I try to map the share to a network drive from my Windows PC, but my Windows logon and the matching password are rejected. Stepping through DIAGNOSIS.txt and using smbclient on the Samba server itself, I've got as far as step 7 before things

I seem to be having a problem whereby every time a user fails to authenticate with Samba, smbd stops responding to that particular client and has to be restarted. Apart from 'what on earth's going wrong with my authentication', there are two things I'd like to know: firstly, is it the main smbd/all smbd's which lock, and secondly, if not is there any way (on SuSE Linux) to

Hi, I've tried to set up automated user addition and deletion on our Samba server, but something's going wrong. Users appear in /etc/passwd, but not in smbpasswd, so people are getting login errors and so on when they try to access the share. Have I missed a bit of config that's supposed to tell samba to set up smbpasswd's too? (smb.conf included below). Thanks! Vicky Clarke

We have a Linux box running Samba in a domain with a Windows NT Server PDC. The samba shares have disappeared from users' machines this morning, and in the event viewer on the PDC (which is authenticating users) I see an event ID 5723 with message "The session setup from the computer SAMBA failed because there is no trust account in the security database for this computer. The name

Hello all, I'm following along in chapter 6 of John Terpstra's "Samba 3 By Example" and I've got everything working great up until the point where I join the machine to the new domain (step 17 on page 155). The command *net rpc join -U Administrator* fails with the errors below. palpatine:/var/lib/samba/sbin # net -d 4 rpc join -U Administrator [2004/06/09 15:13:35, 3]

Hi all. I?m using the binary distribution of SAMBA 1.9.16 on SCO3.2v4.2. Last weekend we got a new server. Installed all applications and all worked fine (as expected) ... but: the win/nt clients could map the shares, but they could not browse the SAMBA-box! I checked the "browseable=" options, but everything looked ok. Increasing the debug level and stepping through the logfiles

I have been trying for 3 weeks to get 3.0.21b to work on AIX 5.2. I am currently running 3.0.4, which has no problems. I am getting very frustrated, and am about to give up entirely on Samba.

I have set an alias, and it shows up in Network Neighborhood, but when I try to open it a pop-up window says it is not accessible, "The network path was not found." The primary name works fine however. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi Matt, the problem you referred to is discussed in detail as bug #82 in Samba's bug tracking tool. It consists of 2 bugs. One prevents the registration of drivers and is due to a NULL-pointer passed from that part of code in rpc_server/srv_spoolss_nt.c which calls sys_adminlog function. It begins with the comment /* BEGIN_ADMIN_LOG */ and ends with the comment /* END_ADMIN_LOG */

I am trying to configure Samba 2.2x with Win2K. I need that samba shares a directory in the Linux server and the users Windows access that without authentication.

Folks, I am stumped! I have followed every tech tip I could find and I am still unable to complete my SMB installation. Specifically, I fail Test 4 and Tests 9 and 10. I believe the problem has something to do with the NMBD configuration. Below are the parameters of our system. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to use the LDAP backend for the idmap database but I just can't seem to get it to work. There really is rather pathetic documentation out there on how to implement this. I've basically got my ldap server setup with an OU called smb and another OU under it called idmap. Here is my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = HQ server string = Theo's Samba Server

Hi, I'm trying to get Samba to offer the Adobe driver automatically for the two printers I have set up with CUPS. I have all of the necessary files plucked out of the Adobe Postscript Windows driver package, but I'm hitting the problem when I come to run "cupsaddsmb -v ..." that the "rpcclient adddrivers" command always fails with NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL.
