Hi, I've got samba running on multiple machines, blah blah works great... On my new fax server (RH7.2) I want any windows user to be able to connect using any username/password. I got it to work with the nobody/pc guest accounts, but that defeats the purpose (I need to see their windows/default username). Basically you connect to the fake samba shared printer, and the script mails a URL

Hello I'm using an OOTB RH80 with recent updates, and samba 227, french language when I access a samba share from a w98 box eveything works fine but with accented chars I just can't get the right filename under linux. whatever filename I use on w98, with accented chars, it works from the w98 side (I get write and read files with their right filenames) but when I try to access those

Hi I have a linux mdk 8.0 w/ custom 2.4.19-16 kernel, acls, quotas etc I have a samba 2.2.7 serving several shares on LVs everything's fine but with one share : whenever a windows client accesses this share his file manager is locked out for exactly one minute. this happens when the client requests the directory listing (or when an automatic refresh takes place) i can't see any reason

Hi I posted this last week but go no answers. So I try again in case someone has any idea... I have a file server (linux with acl and quotas custom 2.4.18 kernel, samba 2.2.7a with acl, quotas and winbind) among others there's a share on which any user of the domain is allowed to put files, any user able to read and write other users' files (a public and free space) the problem is that

Hello, Would really appreciate any advise on how the security setting should be setup. I have running Samba ver 2.0.7 on HPUX10.20. Clients run Windows 200 PCs, WinNT4 PDC. "docusers" is the UNIX home directory for document users. their individual home dir is created under their user id. so, Paul 's home directory structure is : /docusers/paul Below is an extract from the

PLEASE HELP ME!!! For some reason, I can not change any of my shares! I just started trying to configure samba yesterday. Here is what I have: (2) Windows 98 SE Systems (1) Debian 2.2 r 3 Linux System running Samba The username on the Windows machines is "Name" and I want to be able to access a few shares on the Samba machine. So I started configuring

I can ping the virtual Linux servers NetBIOS name and access a share. Perhaps someone can examine the attached named.conf file for errors and/or omissions. My virtual Linux server (172.17.60.6) has been configured as a WINS server, and a PDC. I am not, however, certain how to configure it as a DNS server beyond what is in the attached named.conf file. Here are the results of pinging the

Running Samba 2.2.2, having troubles with preexec when it involves the path parameter: Log on to the samba server as kris, user "users". %U expands to kris, %G expands to users. [profile] path = /data/profile/%U preexec = /bin/mkdir -m 700 /data/profile/%U writable = yes create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 This fails to work, Samba reports that it could not

Hello, I have two machines (Samba under Linux, and Win98) that try to connect to another samba machine. They are all two seen as UNKNOWN machines. With the Linux one, I am correctly authenticated, but with the Win98, Connections are rejected. Here is a level 3 log file (It's a bit long, sorry). As you can see, there is an ERRNO = Connection reset by peer Thanks.

Hi, I make use of shadow_copy2 and root preexec. The vfs root preexec is responsible to auto create home directories which initially don't exist. The script behind it is well tested and works perfectly. Unfortunaltely shadow_copy2 seems to be called before root preexec and fails due to the missing ZFS home share which causes the session to fail completely before root preexec even has a

Hi Steve, And thanks for your answer. Unfortunately it does not solve my problem. What I?m trying to do is to create two dirs using preexec in the same service. It works well as long as I?m only creating one directory, what I can?t figure out is how to create the second directory withing the same service. Eg. How would I continue after the last "fi" in the script to check for the second

Hi, I am trying to create two directories using the preexec command but I must be missing something very simple. I just can?t figure out the syntax. How would I continue this so that I could create dir2? preexec = if [ ! -e /home/%U/dir1] then /bin/mkdir /home/%U/dir1; fi Regards Robert ----------------------------------------------------------

Hi! I'm trying to setup samba 2.2.4 on MandrakeLinux 8.2. The server should act as a file storage for about 25 Windows 2000 clients. Setting up a "basic" server which just serves the files is easy. However, I'd also like to support NT ACLs on the Samba server. Well, what do I have to do, to get it to work? I'm using the Mandrake RPM for 2.2.4, which has ACL support

hi all i'm running into a little problem when using preexec scripts for the creation of dir's on my samba server.... script --- #! /bin/sh name=`getent passwd | grep %U | awk -F: '{print $5}'` mkdir /samba/test/"$name" --- snip of smb.conf --- [test] path = /samba/test preexec = /root/script browseable = Yes writeable = Yes

Hi. I'm tesing Samba 3.0.7-a on Debian Sarge with Debian kernel 2.6.8. I am working on auto-creation of logon scripts, & am using a root preexec on the netlogon share for this. In testing I have passed the user ID to the script, and have used echo to test output. The netlogon service parameters and other info are below. The output from the script occurs twice in the output file,

The next interesting question for me is: If I put '\\server\%username%' into ADUC Windows part (or \\server\username explicitly, for that matter), Samba on 'Ok/Apply' registers the attempt to access a non-existing share and applies the [homes] section (executes 'root preexec'). I tested that. However, the user doing this is the domain admin. So Samba would look that

Hi all, I had the following line in my smb.conf with which to log access to the home share when users logged in: preexec = /bin/echo \"%u logged in to %m at %T\" >> /var/log/samba/logons.log Since updating to LDAP however, it's stopped working and I suspect that smbldap cant handle the % substitutions for user, machine and time. Has anyone else run into this problem? If
