Hi, A user works on a Windows 2000 workstation with MS Visual C++. When he tries to open a file on a Samba share (Samba 2.2.2 on Sun/Solaris), Visual C++ hangs for about 10 seconds, then displays the file. At the same time, the following messages appear in log.smbd: [2002/09/26 12:21:27, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(337) Unable to open new log file /usr/local/samba/var/log.smbd: No such file or

We upgraded to 2.2.6rc2 yesterday to continue our resolving of the printer driver problems. (Thanks Jerry & Rohin) For unrelated reasons I wanted to log into the machine late last night and found Putty couldn't connect. When I get in this morning the server was completely hooped with Out of Memory errors on the screen with SMBD as the offending process. Trying to log into any console

Just thought you'd like to know that SP1 for Windows XP breaks romaing profiles up to and including 2.2.5. This has been confirmed by MIT at the following link: http://web.mit.edu/swrt/winxp/ See the section "Software Compatiblity Test Matix/Testing SP1" We have found this to be the case as well.... I'm cross-posting this to samba-technical as well....we will work on some

Hello. We are using a Samba 2.2.5 as a PDC on a Debian GNU/Linux server. This server also handles a few printers, through LPRng. On the Unix side, no problem (duplex, simplex, short-duplex), everything works fine. I followed the instructions from the howto collection "Printing Support in Samba 2.2.x" to make these printers available on Samba. Most of the described procedure worked

My samba server works in a NT 4.0 domain. The users can print fine (mostly Win9x). Now i'm trying to use Win2K workstation to upload drivers. I can see the printers, the properties are available but we i try to add a driver it fails with the following error : "Can't install driver Intel Windows 2000. Can't compleet statement" (translated from dutch). I've include my

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 FYI.... I just uploaded an [S]RPM for RedHat 8.0. See http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/redhat/ The 2.2.6-2 is only because I had to change the spec file a little for build on RedHat 8. Many thanks to Axel Thimm for clueing me in on the problem with the 'x' bit for files in examples/ & docs/ The mirrors will update

A stupid question. With new printing system (spoolss) how people restrict access to the printers ? It was clear with the old system when each printer was in a separate share. I could assign a list of valid users for each printer share. TIA. -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC. (416) 535-0123 ext. 1352

I installed the printer patch on 2.2.4 on my Linux 7.3 box, reconfigured it (I think I did things in the correct order:configure,make realclean,run patch,configure,make,sh.makerpms.sh), created a new rpm, uninstalled the old samba, reinstalled the new rpm, fixed the conf files, reloaded samba and now my printers appear as "HPLASERJET on _smbserver". HPLASERJET is queue name which is

Hi, I never thought I would need to change the default log file path, but I had and found a bug. When changing my default "log file" from /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m to /usr/local/samba/var/log/log.%m there are always files created in the "default compiled" log directory /usr/local/samba/var when nmbd and smbd start. The following ls are right after doing a

I'm trying to get the 2.2.6-1 src rpm for RH 7.x from samba.org compiled on RH 8.0. I built it as root with this command rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686 samba-2.2.6-1.src.rpm. Trying to install the built RPM (no errors in the build process) results in these unmet dependencies: # rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.6-1.i686.rpm error: Failed dependencies: perl(fix_print_html.lib) is needed by

Maybe there's a trivial solution to this, but it's confused the hell out of me. I'm trying to upload the latest Windows XP PCL6 driver for our Laserjet 4250TN to my Samba 3.0.11 server. It works, and uploads the driver files, but then at the end it produces an error on the XP client "the operation could not be completed". The logs on the samba server state:

In the documentation the "oplocks = yes" option is give in an example, as the default for this parameter. However, I needed to turn oplocks off, and so assumed that the command "oplocks = no" would work. It doesn't, instead I found that "oplocks = false" does. There needs to be some boolean fixing done, or at least documentation should reflect this strangeness.

Correct me if I'm wrong. With Samba 2.2.5, there is no way to get a group of users to manage printers so they be able to select/deselect duplex mode, tray, etc. Although I'm able to add a group with the Security tab and give them appropriate permissions, it doe not work from the user side - all the settings are still grayed out. P.S. I use LDAP backend if that matters. -- Yuri

Hello all, I've got a strange problem with Samba 2.2.4. I'm able to associate print drivers to printers (raw queue in cups). My clients are able to see that the drivers belong to the printers, and they download them, but as soon as the server reboots, I lose my driver associations and I need to once again specify a driver on the windows end. The Print server was an upgrade from Samba
