similar to: using samba over AT@T broadband

AT&T Broadband blocks ports 137,138, and 139. They want to protect those Windows users that install File and Print Sharing from viruses and attacks.

Before wasting a lot of time going at this in the wrong list, I would like to confirm whether my thinking is on or off base with respect to source and destination ports. Samba is being blocked by fw2loc even though I have accept rules set up. I believe I can explain why, but I could be wrong. I think that for some reason, samba is sourcing stuff on the commonly used port 137, but trying to send

I'm trying to get Samba up and running and having a terrible time. It says that I should be able to run nmap and see that 137 and 139 are open - which they are not. I have not added any restrictions in smb.conf, do not have a firewall running and I have increased the log level to 5 to see all of the messages. It says that it is talking on 137 but it kind of looks like it's not talking

Hi, I am having some troubles setting samba up nicely on my Slackware 7.1 machine. It is currently just a web/ftp server mainly for my personal use at home. I downloaded the tarball samba-2.0.7 and did everything to install it "properly." I edited services to include: netbios-ns 137/tcp # NETBIOS Name Service netbios-ns 137/udp netbios-dgm

Hello, I would like to ask you if its possible to run Samba on an other port than 137-139? I tried once to edit the "/etc/services" File. The lines: ... netbios-ns 137/tcp netbios-ns 137/udp netbios-dgm 138/tcp netbios-dgm 138/udp netbios-ssn 139/tcp netbios-ssn 139/udp ... I changed it to: ... netbios-ns 6998/tcp netbios-ns 6998/udp netbios-dgm 6999/tcp netbios-dgm 6999/udp

Hi team, one small query, Is netbios-ns,netbios-dgm and netbios-ssn ports 137,138,139 need to be open to communicate with windows from linux. what was the use of these services??

Our Client software used samba protocol,If there is no firewall case , this protocol work properly from remote site.All of firwall configuration open ( this mean is all of port open ). Samba work very well, but if some constrain put in, it doesn't work. 1)I would like to know about port usage of samba protocol. I think snmpd, nmpd daemon used some port number. i can see /etc/service file.

Hi Folks, I have a RH9 machine running Samba 3.0.0 (Had the same situation when running 2.2.8) and I am not being able to make my W2K SP4 clients or XP join the PDC. I keep receiving the following message: "The following error occurred validating the name "ADIDOMAIN" The condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. For information about troubleshooting

Hello, I am new to samba and i would to well secure it. In smb.conf, I entered the following lines : hosts allow = 192.168.0.2 127.0.0.1 hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0 bind interfaces only = yes interfaces = eth0 lo I thought that it would only listens on the local machine and my internal Lan (which is on eth0 192.168.0.1) but nmbd seems to always listen on UDP/137 and UDP/138 (netbios-ns and

Hi all, I've recently setup samba 2.2.5 on a solaris 8 workstation and configured it to be a member of an NT domain. Everything is working correctly, with the exception that the samba server does not appear in the network neighborhood of the rest of the PC's in the domain. However, if you choose to "search for computers" and enter the netbios name of the server it is

Sirs, Thank you for any time that you take to read about my problem. I have a Linux (redhat) 8.0 mail server set up with; qmail dhcp / dns transparent proxy to internet - adsl HTML & our web pages (nothing special) SAMBA This problem has been with me since RedHat 7.3 and thir packaged samba. If I transfer a file from the mail (linux box) box to a win98se box it takes a

Sorry if this has been covered before. I setup a new Samba server using RedHat EL 3, and samba 3.0.2-6.3E (the version that comes with Redhat). We were seeing an intermittant 20 seconcd delay when grabbing a directory listing, but only from XP, win 2k was fine. I couldn't completely nail down when the delay occured but it seemed to be when the directory or share hadn't been accessed

I am getting errors when I try to start smbd which say that port 445 is already in use, but nothing else is using it. In the log, the full error is: -----start log.smbd---- [2004/02/02 11:03:53, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(662) bind failed on port 445 socket_addr = 0.0.0.0.

I moved an entire RH 6.2 server from one CPU to a new one using a tape backup/restore. Everything from the old server is working on the new server, but when SysV starts up smb, the nmbd daemon (2.0.6) exits with an error: create_subnets: No local interfaces! eth0 has already started according to the logs and console. Any ideas? Thanks. ______________________ Greg Kelley, IT Director SSA, EAA,

Hey, I have slow access when I first open shares. If I reboot my XP box and then go to access a share, it takes a good 10 seconds for files to come up, even after I've typed in my username and password. Once accessed it runs fine and is fast. But, if I don't access it for 30 minutes, when I access it again it sits for like 10 good seconds before it does anything. This is very annoying.

I have a Solaris box and Windows 2K box connecte through a hub, along with a DSL modem. I cannot get the two boxes to work via Samba, here is the relevant details.

I need help. For over a year I have been running SAMBA 2.05a under RedHat 6.1 (kernel 2.2.x) without problem. Then a couple days ago a power glitch crashed my system (UPS not powerful enough any more). Now SAMBA is not running. Here are the symptoms: As RedHat is starting up, both smbd and nmbd are listed as successful. /var/log/messages indicates: Dec 30 13:19:45 we-24-126-201-41 smb: smbd

Let's see I've got a network about 10 PCs running XP and 1 running Linux. I had setup Samba and it was running like a charm.
