Hi all, again. I am trying to set up samba with acl-support on a debian woody (final) box. The kernel has got XFS-support and getfacl and setfacl are working fine since I have built the acl-debian packages from SGI's acl-sources. Also attr-dev, acl-dev and the appropriate kernel-headers are installed. The acl.h can be found in /usr/include/sys/. But all my efforts trying to implement xfs

Hi all, I'm developing an R package and I'd like to load it easly while developing, debugging and testing. I would like to load it without having to install it. Installing it causes me some problems for debugging it, as the code file it is executing it not the one I'm editing. I've seen the function sourceDirectory from R.utils package which works quite fine for me, but would be

Hi guys, I'm been following samba for six or seven odd months now in preparation for moving our organisation over to a file server which is a little more cost effective than the Micro$oft alternative. We are currently running with about 30 users on a Windows 2000 Small Business Server. Do you see any problems in replacing this server with a linux box running Samba? Is the file

Hello Folks, I happened to have won atleast something because my backup off the site is working absolutely well at the scheduled interval. But I am having one question, which I know this community could help me getting it down and having everything working the way I really want. This is about having increamental backup. Here's the script I thought, If Include it in the crontab might work but

I have compiled both my kernel (2.4.17) and samba (2.2.3a) to support ACL/EAs. It looks like it has gone well, but I get one message that worries me, but I don't know if it should or not. checking whether to support ACLs... checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes checking for ACL support... yes Using posix ACLs checking for acl_get_perm_np... no As you can see, the last line is where my

I've been running rsync as a cygwin task on Windows Server 2008 for about two months now. I'm using the --link-dest option to do a daily 'snapshot' of the contents of a server containing about 10TB of data, about 13 million files, to a Linux based NAS server. Things started out great but I soon noticed that the time take to complete was slowly incrementing. It started at around

My Dell server was preloaded with Redhat 7.2 , Linux 2.4.7-10, gccv2.96 with Ext3 file system. I want to install the machine into my company W2k domain using winbind but my Linux kernel does not support the needed ACls. I Does the latest Linux kernel come with ACL support and if so should I just update the kernel to 2.4.19 which I think is the latest production quality kernel? The ACL

Hello ! I am using samba 3 with acl support and when I use the "hide unreadable" option, it only take the unix right. Even if they have read or write access given by acls, people have to be the owner of a directory to see it. I don't know if it's realy a bug or if i'm not using it the right way, i simply add it to a share definition. Thanks in advance ! Eric Guimont

Hi, I would like to know, what's the importance of sid and rid, for: 1) a win2k to samba migration, with roaming profiles 2) brand new domain on samba, with roaming profiles If rid and sid need to be migrated to a samba+ldap how do I do it? Another thing is, I've read in ldap-smb-HEAD-howto.html that the builtin accounts are implemented internally in the samba server. Does this mean I

Hello, I am wondering if someone is using Sambe between Unix and Unix. What is pro and con comparing to NFS? Thanks in advance!

Hi ! I installed a SNF 7.20 firewall and a Samba/Debian PDC. I wonder if it's possible to restrict web/ftp/mail access according to user's group ... (the only way I now would be to restrict access according to IP adresses but I'm not interrested in this solution). Is there a way to do it with Samba (I guess no but any idea would help ...) Thanks.

Heya, i got this problem with stubborn win98 machine refusing to show up on the browse list, my samba is the local/domain master browser and login server for the whole local network, using user security. the workstation has all the same protocols and settings like the other 6, only difference is the ip and the netbios name, the login used on that machine matches existing username on my linux

We have been able to successfully install / configure SAMBA on our LAN / WAN. Everything is working out just fine.. Just 1 little problem (And I'm sure it is something I screwed up or missed in the docs). When changing a computer name on the client PC (Win2k), I receive an "Access Denied" error. I've even tried using the root account to change the name with no avail.

Hi All, I have the following section in my smb.conf file: [Satish' Hindi Alltime Hits - Gems] path = /mnt/d-drive/Music/Satish' Hindi Alltime Hits Gems browseable = yes public = yes readonly = yes guest ok = yes I am able to browse this share through win2k but not from winNT.

Hi I've just built a Debian 3.0 Woody Samba server with version 2.23a. Using stable rather than unstable. After putting it into a network with another Samba server I find that the Win98 client machines can't connect to it but they can connect to the other server. The other server is set to OS level 65 and the new one is somewhere below that. I've run all the usual tests and they

Any ideas anyone? I still need at least a weekly backup of all data. The current workaround is just for the most active directories. Are there any diagnostics I can do which might shed some light on this?

Hi, I wonder what is a better way to organize a lot of R source files. I have a lot of utility functions written and store them in several source files (e.g util1.R, util2.R,..utilN.R). I also have a master file in which the source command is used to load all the util.R files. When I need to use the utility functions in a new project, I create a new R file (e.g main.R) in which I

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
