Hello all, I have a very annoying situation (at least at my end). I set up Samba 2.0.5 on a Digital UNIX 4.0F system sitting on a Compaq DS20 server with great success.... until recently.

Hi guys/girls, How are you ? I've been struggling to get my users' passwords to expire. My configuration is samba-3.0 running with the standard smbpasswd back-end. Everything that I can find on the web says I should set the following to expire my users passwords after 28 days.: pdbedit -v -P 'minimum password age' -C 300 pdbedit -v -P 'maximum password age' -C 2419200

Hi I have a newly installed FreeBSD 6.0 release machine on which I am getting the following error on the console: "ad4: req=0xc23bc258 SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE semaphore timeout !! DANGER Will Robinson !!" This is generally associated with heightened disk activity, but it happens inevitably after a while (minutes or hours) if the machine is running. The atacontrol list shows:

UPDATE: We found out that there was still an entry in /etc/rc.local to start up the old SAMBA after upgrading and setting up to run from inetd.conf.

I am running Samba 2.0 and occasionally get a "semaphore timeout period has expired" message when accessing Samba shares on a Digital UNIX 4.0e server.

I modified /etc/nsswitch.conf, added winbind after passwd & group. Also modified /etc/samba/smb.conf same as samba HOWTO collection's example. The command "net rpc join -S DOMAIN -U Administrator" runned successfully, and I could see my Linuxbox listed in ADS user&computer management console. But when I started winbindd, some error messages appeared in /var/log/message:

Hello Hamish. I found your message just googling for Suse and sk98lin. Did you solve your problem? I had the same case and only way to restore was to change NIS driver speed settings from AUTO to 10Mb. And it was not related to OS as the same problem is in WXP ( I have dual boot, ASUS P4P800, integrated GB NIS ). Oleg.

Hi. We are running Solaris 2.6, Samba 2.0.0. NT workstations can connect to all samba shares, but W2K workstations can't. Some users get "Semaphore Timeout Period has expired", some get "Network name not found". The NT and W2K users login to the same NT domain. There is a WINS entry matching the Unix server hostname. Any ideas? Thank you. -Anoosh Here is smb.conf

Some users will suddenly lose their connections to the samba shares and when trying to log in to the system again will get an error that windows cannot locate their roaming profile - "Semaphore time period has expired".

I have had samba running on my freebsd box for about 2 years now, and my / partition is 50MB (it is just a fileserver with ssh and nothing more). However, recently (about a month or two ago) it disconnects itself from my LAN with warnings like: semaphore timeout has expired.
