I hate being stupid. Here is the answer: This won't work: [global] logon script = %U.bat # Win9x needs this This will work: [global] # Win9x needs this logon script = %U.bat The comment has to be on it's own line.

Hi, The login script has worked for our win98 computers since the dawn of time (or there abouts). Then something happened or I did something and the login script doesn't run anymore. I can run it manually. This was version 2.2.3a. I started smbd with -d10 and didn't see any call for a script. Is the login script mentioned in a working system? In an effort to fix this, I deleted and

Hello. I use Linux 2.0.30(Red Hat) and Samba 1.9.16p. Clients are Win95, NT Workstations and Servers. I use Linux like printserver and bridge. And I have problem with my printer HP LaserJet 4MV with JetDirect card. It print 1 test page( or another 1 page) and print after it second page: User: root Host: LINUX Class: LINUX

Hi, I have a client with 2 Win98 out of 15 computers that refuse to see the server when they first turn them on in the morning. When they logon as a new user, not a reboot, it connects and they work fine for the rest of the day. They can even reboot whenever they want throughout the day and it works, but when they turn it off over night, the computers refuse to see the domain the next morning.

Hi, Every once in awhile the subject of faxing through Samba comes up and there are some really interesting solutions offered. Here we go again. My question is more related to hardware. What modems are the successful Samba faxers using these days? Though to software works fine, the hardware leaves a something to be desired. Thanks. -- Bob Crandell Assured Computing When you need to be sure.

Hi, I just installed 2 Win2K sp4 workstations on an otherwise working Samba 2.2.8a network and 2 of the 3 printers are showing "Access denied". What's up with that? The other computers that are working just fine are Win98, XP and Win2K NOT sp4. Here is part of the global section: printing = bsd load printers = yes disable spoolss = yes printcap name

Hi there, Is there someone over there knows a method or script that can copy a large volume of data (in folders) from PCs to a samba server (suppose there is enough space there)? I know using smbclient or smbtar can backup data on PCs to samba server, but it is written in tar files.I wonder whether this method can handle a large folder, say, in 10GB size. Also, using smbclient with mget and

Hi, I have a situation that causing premature gray. All printers are connected to HP JetDirects. A test print from Linux prints. Sometimes a test print from Win98 works, usually it gets a spool32 error and I have to reboot the workstation. No NT machine can print. There are NT 4 and Win2K machines. When I setup a printer, it doesn't configure a port. In Win98, I can add a port in printer

Hi, One of my clients is trying to backup a Redhat client/server accounting database to a Windows computer and one 2K file refuses to copy. I've set up a cron job that unloads the server, copies the files to another location and restarts the server. An hour later, the Windows backup starts up and runs successfully until it reaches this file, then it just hangs. No errors, it just stops.

We have 20-30 computers here with win98 and a Linux/Samba Server. We have just implemented Samba PDC. The only problem I see is if we change passwords on a computer..that changes on that workstation and on Samba and Unix. Now, if the user goes to another computer they have their old password on the other computer and new one on Samba. So, would roaming profiles help me...what i want to do is

Is there such a thing as a Samba logoff script? I am currently using [NETLOGON] for logon scripts, but for the adding and removing of printers via WSH, I'd prefer to also remove these printers after I log off. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | | Ryan Novosielski - Jr. UNIX Systems Admin |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| | novosirj@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/

G'day all Is it possible to get fstab to mount a samba share? I see it can mount nfs shares, but I need to know about samba shares Thanks

Hi, I support Novell, Linux servers and Microsoft (because I have to). I just had the opportunity to install Netware 6.0. It has NFAP for Window (CIFS). This allows Windows users to use a Novell server without having to install Client 32. It's a nice idea but it's got a long way to go before it can be loosed on the public. My question: What would it take to port Samba to Netware?

I am having a SERIOUS problem with our new 2.2.5 server. In fact I will probably be forced to move to a Windows 2000 Server platform, as the samba server is practically useless. Work on any files on the share cannot be done without major risk of losing data. I get these two errors all day: [2002/09/19 21:04:21, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_data(436) read_data: read failure for 4.

the old one back in out of desperation and, BAM, all the problems went away. There were no other symtoms that pointed at that switch so we didn't suspect it all.

All, As some of have no doubt found out, scripting is subtly different on 95/98 machines and NT machines. I have a logon script called by: logon script = xxxx\main.bat %G %U that works great for NT boxen. However it does absolutely nothing, no execution of main.bat at all for a W98 client. If I remove the parameters so it is: logon script = xxxx\main.bat it executes on the W98 box,

Hi, I've been trying to get the logon script to with in XP. This same logon script works in Win98. I finally discovered that it will work if I change logon drive = to logon drive = z: Now I'm really confused. The Netlogon is path is /home/samba and shared as \\server\netlogon. Z: is mapped as \\server\home\. This means the path to the logon script is Z:\samba\logon.bat Not

I am trying to read in a list of users from a file and automatically create users from that. Here is what I thought would work: #!/bin/sh cat /mnt/PDC1-UsrSync/user.diff | while read Foo; do useradd $Foo; done Contents of the user.diff file: dccut dclam dcprep dcshp But here is what I get when I run the script: > sh test.sh useradd: invalid user name `dccut ' useradd: invalid user
