Unfortunately, it appears smbstatus will only show the clients that have accessed the shares since the last restart of the smb daemon (not a guarantee that people will do this in our case). There appears to be a timeout of this information as well. WINS does keep all this information based on when the client's machine first logs into the network, so it's a lot more accurate. Man, I wish

Thus spake Nathan Ehresman (nehresma@css.tayloru.edu) [29/07/03 08:50]: > check out http://www.css.tayloru.edu/~nehresma/samba.html Check out the logs -- this is a completely different problem. Ed and I have been working on this for some time now, and while your solution wards off potential future problems, it doesn't fix the current problem. We're not having the typical 'My

How does one get rid of machines from the WINS database? They seem to hang around forever....and a restart doesn't solve it because the WINS data just gets passed around... Michael D. Black mblack@csihq.com http://www.csihq.com/ http://www.csihq.com/~mike 321-676-2923, x203 Melbourne FL

Hey all, Just wondering about the current status of wrepld. Back in '02 Jean Fran?ois Micouleau was doing some work on it, but there does not appear to be any changes to the code since that spring besides updates to the entire tree that happen to touch the wrepld files. The Samba-HOWTO states that it is in "active development" and I was wondering if I could help with testing or

Hello, I am trying to setup a network of 5 XP computers with roaming profiles. I've got a profile set up on the server and I can log on. The problem is that the log in time takes about 10 mins and the log out takes just as long. Here is a link to the log file from the samba server. I have made comments on it to show what is happening on the terminal.

I've been using Dovecot for a couple months now and am very impressed. Thanks for a great package. However, I have noticed a problem that I haven't been able to solve. When a new message comes into my inbox, the last message that was received is marked as new as well as the new one. I originally thought this was a bug in my client (mutt) but I have verified that the same thing

PDC : RedHat 7.2 // Samba 2.2.4 RedHat rpm Clients : W2K SP1 Does anybody know how to get rid of the cached local profiles when logging off? Since we use FAT32 every user has access to other local replicated profiles. Furthermore sometimes the logon to the domain doesn?t work the first time after logon after a cold start. W2k claims it can not replicate/copy some files from the users profile and

Hi all, we have implemented a scenario with samba as a PDC, running version 2.2.4, and clients windows XP boxes. The scenario calls for roaming profiles, and mobility in general. We have a problem with microsoft outlook, which saves the settings locally, and thus every student has to visit all lab pcs in order to have his detailed entered before he can use outlook. Has anybody implemented

I'm using samba and cups to allow NT/2k machines to print to an HP LaserJet 4000N printer. The printer works fine except for one in house program. In this one program, all the horizontal lines that should be printed are missing. Originally I thought this was a driver problem, but today, for no apparent reason, it started printing the horizontal lines... but only for the first page of each

Hi all... I need to make a few queries to WINS, but am unsure how to do so. 'nmblookup' will allow me to enter an IP address and get information about the machine name, domain, and username. I want to do the opposite...I would like to have a tool that will take a username and return the IP address. I know this information is stored in WINS somehow, and I am capable of writing some Perl

Hi all, I have just downloaded and tested with the Samba3.0 Alpha21 Release. I want to try to create the server account in the active directory, however, when I logged in to the KDC by "/usr/kerberos/bin/kinit administrator@xxx.com", but error returned as "KDC has no support for encryptions type while getting the initial credentials" , then I can't go on for creating the

I'm fiddling with the various configuration files to try and get Samba working - after making changes to various files I end up rebooting [shudder] the box to get the settings to take. I invoke the smbd, and nmbd binaries from a root bash command line, each with the "-D" option. I can't seem to send a "kill SIGHUP" command to the PID I read from a "ps -ex"

Hi, I am running samba 2.2.7 as a PDC with a couple of Win2k workstations participating in the domain. Once in a while of the workstations, I can't access shares on the other, getting a message "no logon servers available". Once I restart smbd and nmbd via /etc/init.d/smb stop start, the problem goes away immediately. I tried to search in samba logs, but there were no error

-----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.

Hello I have the following strage problem here. I have the following smb.conf: ---cut--- tux:/shr/pdfdropbox# more /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = de_zycko netbios name = tux server string = tux kernel oplocks = No encrypt passwords = Yes guest account = Nobody invalid users = root # This tells samba to write log files per

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

Having searched the documentaion and the archive, and having this alluded to, but not addressed directly, I was hoping someone here could set me straight: I need to be able to support multiple languages for separate users: english, simplified chinese, traditional chinese, and korean han. Is it correct that under 2.2.x that I can only get one of those at a time, using the smb.conf options

Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number users that getent will show? We have over 30,000+ users in our NT 4 Domain and we are testing winbind and it's authentication process. The Linux box is Redhat 8 and samba 2.2.5x, the default samba with RedHat 8.0. All of the users we tested were able to get a home directory, use shares and permissions assigned.
