Hi there, I have two Samba servers running within an NT domain. One Samba (F-Samba) server runs samba-1.9.18.10 on top of FreeBSD-2.2.8 and the other (L-Samba) runs samba-1.9.18p2-C6 on a RedHat Linux variant. All of our NT machines run NT4,SP4. One is workstation and the rest run server. The PDC is an NT Server (NT1). F-Samba and L-Samba only show up in the browsers of about half of the

Hi, I have actual installation Debian Sarge (testing) with Samba 3.0.2a. There is Windows XP SP1 on workstations. I use Novell client 4.83 SP2 or 4.9 SP1 for Novell Netware connections. I try to run Samba as PDC. Everything is fine without Novell client. After Novell Client installation, I could not logon to samba domain. Client gives me message "Domain controller could not be found for

Hi all, I need to setup a VPN where home users can comunicate with a Novell network which functions with IPX/SPX. Is there someway i can route this traffic over Tinc? I know tinc has a "switch" and "hub" mode, but does it also route non IP traffic? This would be the setup: [NovellServer] <-_EtherNet_-> [Firewall] <-_Tinc_-> [Homeuser] Can i make tinc route this

Hi, I believe it's mentioned in one of the docs with the samba distro, that this problem can happen, when you have File and print services enabled on the PC's using a protocol _other_ than tcp/ip like NETBUI or IPX. Samba use's TCP/IP only. Marc Heckmann UNIX systems Space Technologies, SGS Canadian Space Agency

I would benefit from IPX support in both Samba and smbfs. I subscribe to Road Runner, a cablemodem service run by Time Warner Cable. The cablemodem hooks up to an ethernet hub. The ethernet hub is hooked to three computers. One of those computers runs Windows 98. The other two can dual boot between Windows 98 and Linux. TCP/IP works perfectly on all the computers, in both Win98 and Linux

I followed the entire Starcraft/WinE HOWTO located at http://koti.mbnet.fi/~hoppq/sc-howto.html Starcraft now works just fine, except the Local Area (IPX) part doesn't work. My interface (eth0) is configured as follows: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:04:82:F7:A7 inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 IPX/Ethernet 802.3

We have a network here with Samba running as a WINS server and is the domain master browser. The network also consists of a couple of Novell 3.11 servers. Our Windows 95 stations have IPX and TCP/IP configured, NETBIOS is NOT enabled for IPX. The Windows 95 stations have the WINS server IP address typed in manually as is the IP address for the machine. The DNS is properly configured to resolve

Hi everyone! I have a subnet in a dormitory using IP masquerading, and it is working fine. My only problem is that I can't browse the outer network in a Microsoft machine inside. Here is the physical topology: O WINS server of dormitory (152.66.148.10) | It is also the Primary Domain Controller (Win NT 4.0 Server) | ---------------------------- Network of the

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba

I've studied the books, searched the list archives, etc. I suspect there is someone who can just tell me one thing to tweek, so I humbly beg your advice. Situation: I am playing with/learning Linux, intending to replace our two company Netware servers sometime in the next 6 months. At home, I have an NT4.0/SPC PDC, an NT4.0/SP6 docked laptop, and an HP server with RH7.1 or 7.2 (2.4.??

Quite a strange error, and I am very interested to see if anyone can figure this one out: While trying to access my Samba 2.0.5/RedHat 6.0 server via PPP from Win98 on my laptop, I can't ping, http, or telnet there. No error messages, just timeouts. All this works from my LAN, but not when I dial-up somewhere (tried w/ mulitple ISPs). I know it's not a DNS issue, because it works when

Hi, I have a network with three different sites, each with their own workgroup, each on their own subnet, connected by a VPN. Each site has a master samba server, acting as a domain master and wins server. Each site has a mixture of Windows (mostly 2000 professional) and linux workstations on each workgroup. I am trying to get all workgroups and all machines viewable in 'network

We have one brand new HP EPC-43 which can see all the Windows boxes, but not the Samba shares on the Unix server. We have many other Windows machines of all vintages including 95, 98, 98se, NT, 2000, ME and XP which can see each other and the Samba server. The HP runs XP, but we have other XP boxes which have no difficulty with Samba. We have a simple network with no domain controller, just

I am currently trying to integrate a Samba v2.2.5 server into an NT domain. I have already succeeded to join the server into the domain and have authentication working (security = DOMAIN), but when I'm trying to access it from a Win98 client, it sometimes says "network name not found", although the server is visible in the "network neighbourhood". Then, after waiting a

Greetings All: I hope everyone had a fun Halloween weekend (I carved 4 big pumpkins and gave out a bucket full of rubber eyeballs and stuff). I'm hoping somebody can explain the password behavior I've been seeing (and a couple of other things). Here's my setup: An isolated LAN (most clients have modems for dialling out) with one linux/samba machine (RedHat 4.2, kernel 2.0.30,

Here's the problem we're encountering: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Having intermittent problems regarding users opening/accessing/saving/writing MS Excel files into samba shares. When a user accesses a file on a shared volume via samba, they can open an Excel file and end up with one of two conditions; either their system hangs after opening the file for a short pause

I have posted this question 3-4 weeks ago, but still get no response. In my environment, I have one Linux box running Samba 1.8.18p5, and there are about 20 Win95 clients which is in the same network. The porblem I usually encountered is when I click on the samba server icon in the NN icon, sometime I can get thru without any problem. However, there are also many times that I got error message

What is the minimum smb.conf configuration options required to make the host show up in the windows 2000 network neighbourhood browse list? Currently I've only set `workgroup', `netbios name', `server string'. What else needs to be there? My apologies if this has been asked before, I did scan the mailing lists before I posted but most of the postings referred to multiple subnet

Hi. I'm looking for an R equivalent to something like function pointers in C/C++. I have a search procedure that evaluates the fitness of each point it reaches as it moves along, and decides where to move next based on its fitness evaluation. I want to be able to pass different fitness functions to this procedure. I am trying to find a good way to do this. I was thinking of passing in

Hello all, I really hate to just blast out a message right after subscribing to the list, but we're having equipment troubles and getting this new Linux server running just became priority -20. :( Base install is Red Hat Linux 5.1, with all the latest errata patches applied.
