I am running redhat 7.3 with Samba 2.2.4. I was wondering if there was a way to use Samba to resolve my IPs instead of having to add all the entries to my /etc/hosts file? For instance, I would like to be able to do `ping acormany` instead of `ping <IP Address>`. We are currently using WINS on a Windows box to resolve the IPs. As of right now, I can `ping acormany` on a Windows system, but

I have just compiled Samba 2.2.4 with the following configure. ./configure --with-pam --with-winbind I used the same instructions as I did go get Samba 2.2.2 working. I noticed the winbind daemon dies after about a minute. I set the debug to 10 for it and I found some confusing things. Why is it trying to connect to GIGDC1 with a null username? Is this why the connection is refused?

Hello, Many of our NT domain groups have names that contain embedded spaces, like "Domain Admins". When I attempt to use winbind and assign rights via those groups the granting fails. Group names without embedded spaces, like "Domain_Admins" work fine. In smb.conf I've tested specifying the name as: "DOMAIN+Domain Admin" DOMAIN+Domain\ Admin and

Hi, I've a problem in running configure for samba 2.2.5. I'm using redhat 7.3, with ACL support from http://acl.bestbits.at/. I've tested that the ACL is working on the filesystem, and samba can find it too. Here's the error: checking if large file support can be enabled... yes checking whether to support ACLs... checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes checking for ACL

Hola folks, How do I configure a share under Samba 2.2 using DOMAIN security to allow all members of a specified NT domain group access to a particular share? For example, something like: [test] comment = Test Share path = /mnt/share/test nt group = Nice-users, Wonderful Users Where Nice-users and Wonderful Users are NT domain groups? So if User X is a member of Nice-users, she would be

I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps

One work-around would be to create a hidden share that only Domain Admins can access. The use "force user=root" on that share. Then you'll be able to change ACL's and not be root.

Hello, I am using unencrypted passwords with and have updated my Win2k registry for plain text passwords. Before I rebooted I was able to logon to our windows domain and then access Samba shares with the same username and password. Now, after I have rebooted I am presented with a logon screen but my username and password are not accepted. Any ideas? Seth -------------- next part

Hello all, i'm testing 2.2.4. it seems winbindd is not working on our system (linux Suse 7.3 s/390) the config is exactly the same as with 2.2.3a, which worked fine. from a windows client i can connect to the samba server, and see the shares. but, once i want to connect to a share, it asks me for a password and won't accept the correct one. It looks as if winbindd stops working then. On

Hello! I am a Linux newbie. I have put a DHCP network together (to share windows drives on home computers) and I cannot get SWAT to work. On Redhat 7.0, SWAT is a choice in the settings bar on the Gnome desktop. When I run swat, the error message is something like "error, connection timed out" from Netscape. As far as I can tell, the port is inactive "http://localhost:901" I

I had that happen to me on w2k. Your spooler service is stopped. I had an invalid print driver entry in Samba and when I printed to any of the printers on my Samba server it would cause the service to stop. To fix it I replaced the printer tdb's and re-installed the drivers. Josh -----Original Message----- From: Klopf, Tom [mailto:Tom.Klopf@mms.gov] Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002

It has been my experience that only the owner of the file and root change change ACLS on that file. Since you've stated that Administrator IS the owner, maybe there's something else. Are you getting any errors ? Who is the owner of the diretory that the folder resides in. Is the Administrator given write permissions at the share level? My work-around for modifying ACL's was to

Hiya! I have a developer that would like to be able to have access to a share on a UNIX server running Samba where he can use UNCs embedded in VB code on a win2k client to access files on the share. No problem, easily done. He also wants users to _NOT_ be able to use the Windows Explorer to map the drive and gain access that way. He wants only for his embedded UNCs to access the share. If you
