Hi, The login script has worked for our win98 computers since the dawn of time (or there abouts). Then something happened or I did something and the login script doesn't run anymore. I can run it manually. This was version 2.2.3a. I started smbd with -d10 and didn't see any call for a script. Is the login script mentioned in a working system? In an effort to fix this, I deleted and

Hi, I have a client with 2 Win98 out of 15 computers that refuse to see the server when they first turn them on in the morning. When they logon as a new user, not a reboot, it connects and they work fine for the rest of the day. They can even reboot whenever they want throughout the day and it works, but when they turn it off over night, the computers refuse to see the domain the next morning.

I hate being stupid. Here is the answer: This won't work: [global] logon script = %U.bat # Win9x needs this This will work: [global] # Win9x needs this logon script = %U.bat The comment has to be on it's own line. Thanks to all for trying to help. Bob Crandell (bob@assuredcomp.com) wrote*: > >Hi, >The login script has worked for our win98 computers

Hi there, Is there someone over there knows a method or script that can copy a large volume of data (in folders) from PCs to a samba server (suppose there is enough space there)? I know using smbclient or smbtar can backup data on PCs to samba server, but it is written in tar files.I wonder whether this method can handle a large folder, say, in 10GB size. Also, using smbclient with mget and

Hi, I have 2 clients that have expressed an interest in switching some users to Linux workstations as a test to see if they can avoid paying some of the Micro$oft tax. They will be sharing Word and Excel data. I'll be installing OpenOffice to begin with. Maybe they might be interested in Gnumeric later. My question is how to tell either Linux or Samba or both to allow any user to

Hi, I just installed 2 Win2K sp4 workstations on an otherwise working Samba 2.2.8a network and 2 of the 3 printers are showing "Access denied". What's up with that? The other computers that are working just fine are Win98, XP and Win2K NOT sp4. Here is part of the global section: printing = bsd load printers = yes disable spoolss = yes printcap name

Is there such a thing as a Samba logoff script? I am currently using [NETLOGON] for logon scripts, but for the adding and removing of printers via WSH, I'd prefer to also remove these printers after I log off. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | | Ryan Novosielski - Jr. UNIX Systems Admin |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| | novosirj@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/

All, As some of have no doubt found out, scripting is subtly different on 95/98 machines and NT machines. I have a logon script called by: logon script = xxxx\main.bat %G %U that works great for NT boxen. However it does absolutely nothing, no execution of main.bat at all for a W98 client. If I remove the parameters so it is: logon script = xxxx\main.bat it executes on the W98 box,

I am having a SERIOUS problem with our new 2.2.5 server. In fact I will probably be forced to move to a Windows 2000 Server platform, as the samba server is practically useless. Work on any files on the share cannot be done without major risk of losing data. I get these two errors all day: [2002/09/19 21:04:21, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_data(436) read_data: read failure for 4.

I'm attempting to install Abacus Law (v13) under Samba and Linux. Install completes, and I get as far as a single user successfully logged in, but the 2nd user is nothing but trouble. Samba logs show nothing unusual to my semi-trained eye, but locking code or timing is a likely suspect. Technical support is of no help as they haven't tested (and therefore don't support) the
