dear all, does anyone know, how to setting swat if i want setting samba from client (access swat from client)? thanks all SS

I am inquiring about setup of the SWAT utility I have installed Red Hat 7.0 with samba installed during the initial setup of Redhat. I have two network cards installed in my Server and I am connected to the internet via a Cable Modem. When I try to start SWAT netscape displays the message that it cannot find the local host on port 90. I have downloaded the book over samba and I have also tried to

If I have a client that wants to enumerate and access shares on a subnet, and that client knows the IP of the WINS server, is there any need for the client to use the "browsing" services of a DMB or LMB? What is the order of operations of the client? Here is what I imagine to be the case: 1. client asks LMB for a list of all available shares 2. LMB sends client the list of all known

Wow, ok, whatever the problem is, I'm now pretty convinced that it's over my head. I am trying to setup samba as the PDC for our network. I cannot for the life of me get it to work. I went home, tried it on my laptop and it worked in 15 seconds. I came to work, setup the server exactly the same and...nothing. "The domain either does not exist or could not be contacted" blah blah.

Hello ! I have a problem of syncing browse lists between DMB and LMB. The topology of ours network is as follows: Linux Network comma(Linux, DMB, WINS) vol(Linux) door(Linux, LMB) | | | | | | | | | --------------(195.226.226.16/28)------ | | | | | | | --(local net

I am still trying to make samba work over a WAN with multiple workgroups although I am just about to throw in the towel. I had hoped to find a solution that would permit a Windows PC to browse a (MS) workgroup (ie retrieve the browse list from the workgroup master browser for a remote (MS) workgroup when that MB is NOT a samba server). Since WINS only provides the broadcast address of the remote

I have two subnets S1 and S2 and only one machine running samba, but this machine is connected to both subnets, ahs one interface in each subnet and is acting as a router. I want to have a workgroup that spans the two subnets, so any machine in subnet S1 should see all the machines regardless of their subnet when doing browsing. I know that to do this I need: -One LMB in each subnet using Samba.

As I know runnig of Nmbd at Acitve Directory mode is quite unofficial now (but possible) . I will not ask why it is not reccomded to run Nmbd within Samba4 started at AD mode. But if somebody can tell, you are wellcome. But when nmb code implementation is planned to AD part ? That is when nmb functionnality adding to Samba4 acting as AD is planned ? To bring possibiity to use full-forced

Folks, When a node crashes OCFS2 tends to hang for a while fencing the node off the cluster, is there a way to test whether OCFS2 is ready to resume operations, I am trying to restart a service on a different box and I keep getting errors and I would like to isolate the fact that the filesystem is not ready from the inability to restart the service on a different box. thank you, Enrique Sanchez.

Hi, I'm using samba 3.4.7 as a domain controller. Browsing network works fine, but sometimes ( about one week ), my PC can't browse more my Domain (no workstation saw). If I restart samba, all works again. I have read the samba doc on browsing http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/NetworkBrowsing.html My configuration seems ok, local master yes, preferred master

we have samba [mostly] working in a VPN application connecting two Mandrake subnets using SSH. if all machines define the same workgroup name, and we define a single domain master browser, (with the other subnet defined as a preferred, local, master browser,) and a single WINS server, after a little while, all shares are visible to all WIN9x machines. this samba stuff is fantastic! 2 questions:

Hello, As subject says I am working on browsing and access servers, which are dispatched on two subnet, in one workgroup named "WORKGROUP". First here the network : ( I don' t use ASCI art 'cause I am not an expert on that and it may not be printed as it was emailed. ) So, there is five machine : - one, under debian 6, which is the gateway - two, under

hi, I need a hand setting up cross subnet browsing. Does anyone have some good news group postings, or a HOWTO? I have 2 samba servers, and 2 subnets. Each servers sits on it's own domain/workgroup. I think this should be much simpler than it is, and perhaps I am just missing one or two settings. Of the 2 servers: A, B I would like 'A' to do any serving or hold any

I have been having a heck of a time getting cross subnet browsing to work properly. After MANY hours hunting through source and debug logs, I have FINALLY found the source of my browsing issues. My Samba nmdb properly becomes the LMB for my segment on a WAN. I VPN to my servers at the home office and Samba attempts to sync with the DMB. nmbd properly locates the DMB via WINS over the

Hello folks, I have a Filesystem that went R/O in one node but not in the second here is the output of the following command on the node with the R/O issue: fsck.ocfs2 -fn /dev/dm-23 Checking OCFS2 filesystem in /dev/dm-23: label: oraCRSMeta uuid: 71 df 25 70 8b 34 43 f8 a4 e7 cd 2c c5 66 84 27 number of blocks: 2209680 bytes per block: 4096

I'm trying to set up cross-subnet browsing using Samba on a Linux box and a Sparc UltraEnterprise with Win95 and NT Workstation clients. I'm using the Sparc as the domain master and also as the WINS server on the 108 subnet. The Linux box is the local master on the 46 subnet. Both are running Samba 1.9.17alpha4. I can see the conversation between the two samba servers and the browse
