Hello, I work in a development shop where we write code for both Linux and Windows, and develop on both OS's on a codebase stored on a Linux drive with Samba shares. Ever since I 'upgraded' my Windows 2000 system to service pack 3, I have been having trouble compiling my code with Visual Studio over this Samba connection. Basically what happens is that Visual Studio reports

I've got a home network with using win2k pro. Do I need to set Samba up as a pdc for the w2k machines to connect? Currently I've got my w2k machines set up as a workgroup and simply set up Samba as a member of that workgroup. My problem is that I cannot connect to it. I see my samba box in my network neighborhood, however, I cannot browse it. I'm running Samba 2.2.2 that came with

The show up with a channel identifier of '(None)' as in the output below, and do not show up in the soft hangup list, and so can't be cleared by that method. Here is the output from iax2 show channels:

Hi Folks, I'm trying out some ideas for loadbalancing Samba servers with some replication underneath. Right now, we're trying to use DNS round robin, just to see if it works, but it isn't. Our basic config is that we have the same share and NMB server name on every node. Each node has a different IP hostname, which are all round-robin'ed to a single hostname. When we try to

Hi Am noticing smbd processes are running as root and occassionally I see a child process as userid Just curios under what circumstances the smbd runs as user id process ( unix id ) and running as root is a security risk? Thanks in advance -Abdul

Hola folks, How do I configure a share under Samba 2.2 using DOMAIN security to allow all members of a specified NT domain group access to a particular share? For example, something like: [test] comment = Test Share path = /mnt/share/test nt group = Nice-users, Wonderful Users Where Nice-users and Wonderful Users are NT domain groups? So if User X is a member of Nice-users, she would be

Hi, I'd like to reduce the size of the samba binaries. smbd for instance is about 1.5 meg, which is way to much if you ask me. Is there a way to create smaller binaries, maybe by compiling differently? thanx, Dennis ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Here is my scenario when a client wants to resolve a name on my local network: CLIENT --> VPN --> SAMBA --> DNS The client is set up like so: DNS1 = ISP DNS1 (204.26.64.1) DNS2 = ISP DNS2 (204.26.80.3) WINS1 = my samba1 (10.10.1.5) WINS2 = my samba2 (10.10.1.8) This all _seemed_ to have worked 3 days ago for roughly 6 months but stopped suddenly without me doing anything. When the

Hello all, I have seen some chatter again about DTMF. I see most of the talk about DTMF around not being able to get an external IVR to recognize digits, not a big issue for me at this time but sill interesting. My issue though, is with talk off on a zap channel. It seems to be getting worse or maybe my patience is thinning. All my calls go out and come in pstn through an FXO as I do not

Thanks in advance, Cynthia --------------------------------- Do You

Hello Guys, I am having some problems with configuring SAMBA with regards to performance. We are running SAMBA 2.2.3a on Dual PIII 1Ghz machines with 512MB of RAM. The server is running on a default server installation of Red Hat 7.2. We have a 500Gb RAID 5 drive using the Promise SX6000 Raid controller. Currently we are only getting a throughput of ~5MB/S for writes and ~13MB/S for reads.

I had compiled and set up one 3.0beta2 server on S390 Linux, and successfully joined our Win2k AD domain. Everything was working well, and I went to rebuild Samba on Intel.
