Hello all. I've a <BIG> problem with smbmount. I use samba 2.0.5a on a linux slackware 4.0 (kernel 2.2.6) machine and a WinNT Server 4.0 (sp3, sp4, sp5...). When I mount a WinNT share (i.e. test) with command "smbmount //winntserver/test /mnt" I see a complete confusion on the file(s) date in /mnt directory. I read dates from 1900 since 2100. If I "touch" to create

Hi, I'm trying to mount with smbmount a WinNT4.0 share resource from a Linux running Samba 2.2.2.=20 WinNT box is installed with code page=3D850. The resource name includes grave accented characters, in particular: =E0. I'm trying to smbmount with: $ smbmount '//NThostname/of=E0rs' /mnt/ofors -o ip=3Dxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,username=3Dofors,password=3D******,workgroup=3Dwwwwww where:

Hello, I?m having trouble with smbmount & WinNT 4.0 SP 4 Workstation. Mounting shares on NT from Linux as root is no problem, but if I try to mount shares as a normal user, the directory I want to mount the share, becomes gid root and cannot be accessed by a normal user. Is there any configuration to do for this like setting permissions in smb.conf ? Thanks in advance Andreas Klein ---

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Here's the problem we are having, We are mounting a share from a WinNT 4.0 SP3 box to our redhat 5.0 2.0.32 box using the following command: smbmount //zues/raid1 /ISO/raid1 -I pooh.shellserv.com -u 507 -g 250 - c winterhawk -U sambausr The mount works fine but here is the permissions that I end up with d--------- 1 mspieth root

I am using samba to connect to a WinNT 4.0 server (NT LAN Manager 4.0) and I am not getting the correct file date/time displayed when I use smbmount (actually "ls" displays the wrong date/time after performing smbmount). If I connect using smbclient all file date/time values are displayed correctly. Here are some examples: (smbclient) Wed Dec 1 15:50:00 1999 = (smbmount) Fri Jan 02

Hello, I'm running samba 2.2.7a-8.90 on a RH 9.0 I have installed this samba from an "src.rpm" to include some options (--with-winbind , etc, ...) and joined my system to the WINNT domain. So I'm able to acess any linux "share" from my NT worksation ... but when I try to run a script that "smbmount" some windows share ... the screen seems to be blocked and

Hi all, when i try to smbmount an WinNT shared drive, i get the following message: mount error: Invalid argument And in my logfile i get at this time: Nov 9 18:02:33 linux3 kernel: smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL On my other linux-system i can mount with the same command without any problems. have anyone an idea?? thx bye Sven

I am mounting a WinNT server share from redhad 9, and it takes nearly 2 minutes to connect for the first time. Once it connects everything is great. This server has hundreds of thousands of directories and files, and I believe it is taking a long time because it caches the directory information or checks all the permissions or something along these lines. I setup another share without any sub

Hi, I'm running Linux 2.2.2 w/ Samba 2.0.2, using the smbmount that comes with Samba 2.0.2. I noticed that when I mount shares, smbmount sticks around, almost like a daemon: [root@jason /root]# smbmount //XXXX.gatech.edu/XXXX$ "XXXXXX" -U jkau -c "mount /mnt/cnd" < /dev/null > /tmp/smbmount.out [root@jason /root]# ps ax | grep smbmount 10678 ?

I currently have a network of 3 SG Unix boxes to which I want to add an SG running WinNT, I know that I can serve unix file systems to WinNT. Is it possible to serve WInNT drives to Unix using Samba ?, If not can you suggest any possibilities.

First off, I don't know if this is password caching revisited with a vengeance or what. It's very inconsistent for the amount of time the share will stay mounted. I *think* the following are the relevant messagess in the log: Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-32, setting invalid Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_retry: caught signal And of course, I get the

I wish to mount a Win95 share on my linux machine. I can use smbclient to get to the shared disk, using this format: smbclient //win95.machine/share <password> The win95.machine is listed in my /etc/hosts file. I've tried every permutation of the smbmount syntax that I've been able to find in the documentation, dejanews, or this mailing list. Perhaps I've missed some. I

Hello all. Our system consists of two linux machines, each running Red Hat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.9-34), using SMB to mount multiple shares hosted by a Windows 2000 Advance Server. smbclient from Samba 2.2.5 is used to do the actual mounting. Over the weekend, a number of files on these SMBFS shares were created with incorrect timestamps (modification times). In some cases, the timestamps were off by

Running NT 4.0 WS SP 5 and samba 2.0.5a on Linux, 2.2.12 kernel. Whenever I mount an NT share from Linux, it times out after an indeterminate period of time. This has been a continuing problem, the only workaround being to perform something requiring disk activity on the NT box, bypassing the cache (i.e., ls > /dev/null doesn't work, but df does). This must be done on a regular

Hi, i''ve a script on domU that''s : cat < liste_logs_win.txt | while true do - mount a win folder via smbmount (//SERVER_NAME/C$) - copy a file (cp /mntpoint/WINNT/SYSTEM32/LOGFILES/W3SVC9/file.txt /tmp) - umount the mount point (smbmount /mountpoint) done in liste_logs_win.txt, i''ve near 10 lines like this :

Are there some known problems related to ctime changing by itself? I didn't find anything with google at least. tar seems to be complaining about it all the time: [cras@hurina] ~% tar cf test.tar /mnt/cygwin/home tar: Removing leading `/' from member names tar: /mnt/cygwin/home/Timo Sirainen/xxx/xxxxx.xxx: file changed as we read it This happens with my Debian/unstable (samba

I mount a WinNT share using a samba client version 2.2.5: smbmount -t smbfs -o username=user //ntserver/share /logs Then I want to watch a log generated by Internet Information Server (IIS) that grows continually: tail -f /logs/zzz.txt I can see the last lines in file zzz.txt the first time, but I don't get the new lines that are appended in such file. From any windows station I have

Okay, newbie alert. We're having a problem with a linux (2.2.20 smp) webserver (apache) that is a samba 2.0.7-4) client. Oddly, both client and server are Linux. (I didn't set them up) There are 2 webservers that in theory are set up exactly the same. When a certain one of them goes live, it generates an error: smb_newconn failed to allocate new packet buffer max xmit 65535 The server

Hi, I use samba on Linux 2.6 and 2G over size file sharing. It seems smbmount '-o lfs' need to use with large file. but default man page doesn't say this option. I want to edit smbmount.8.xml for lfs and unicode option. I believe using mount.cifs is right way on latest Linux. But one of the implementation smb_clients tools take this lazy option. Is it right way to change of man page
