Hi, Back in 1997 the list was full of tips on making Microsoft Visual C++ Studio (v6) use files over Samba (v2.2.2 on Solaris). Could someone please point me to the definitive answers... (beyond speed.txt?) and their current status. We have an added complication of having 5 developers using each NT4 box over citrix/Terminalserver. Some days we are fine, but some days we slow to a crawl of over a

There is a new regedit file in Samba 2.0.6 for Windows Terminal Server Edition that sets a MultipleUsersOnConnection value to 1. I can't find any documentation about this regedit in the source package or using a search of the Samba website. In Micro$oft's knowledgebase articles Q190162, Q233082, Q231798 and Q191370, it would appear that the value should be set to 0 rather than 1 for the

Help! After upgrading to 2.2.3a from 2.2.2, we have a strange problem that's happening. When users try to map a drive, it asks for the username/password even though we're using server authenticaiton.

Hello! I have a samba fileserver (Debian Woody, Samba 2.2.3a) that I am trying to join into an NT domain (smbpasswd -j ...); the command says that it joined the domain successfully. Then I setup security=domain, workgroup name etc. as outlined in the samba howtos. However whenever I try to access a share on the Samba server I am prompted for a password (even though I already logged in through

Hello everyone, I am trying to configure a Samba 2.2 server to allow users to mount their home directories (stored on a UNIX filesystem) from Windows after authenticating against a Windows 2000 Domain Controller. The Samba server is 2.2.3a compiled with acl support on Solaris 8. I think I am experiencing some (hopefully) basic configuration issues and can't seem to get it to work. I

I'm trying to use the documentation found with Samba-2.2.4 to set up a samba server under RH linux 7.2 (kernel 2.4.9-21) to join an existing NT domain for a couple of weeks with no success. I obtained the samba 2.2.4 source code, compiled with the following options to configure: --with-winbind --prefix=/usr/local/samba --with-smbwrapper --with-pam --with -pam_smbpass After compiling, I

Hi I have a Linux (RH 7.0), and I'he configured on smb server one share to only one NT user. This user is a tool used for file-transfer from MVS to Windows using UNC file name convention. How I don't know the user's password, I using SERVER security on smb.conf to validate the user. The server that validate the user is the same where file-transfer tool runs. During the workdays, it

Dear samba-users We are experiencing some rather long logon times using SAMBA 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze + Windows 7 and while trying to find out why we raised the loglevel to 5 resulting in a rather large logfile. But this did give us a hint as to why we experience so long logon times. It seems that samba is going through the whole user-database with all usernames and machine-accounts. Eventually

Hello everybody, I hope somebody can tell me what is going wrong and how it can be fixed. To be honest: I have walked through the test document, and smbd and nmbd seem to work quite properly. However this is the case: Recently one of our smb-servers was suffering from a very bad HD. So I took another and installed linux on it (Slackware 8.1) and took most of the config files (among which

I'm running FreeBSD 4.4, with Samba 2.2.2 freshly installed, with the FreeBSD Ports package to install files in correct places. I've a Win2k system tring to join the domain "FREESIDE" It will authenticate ok from the win2k command line. "net use x: \\crypton\homes /USER:FREESIDE\jerry" It seems to work ok during the first part of joining a domain, i.e. password

Quick run down of my setup: NT 4.0 PDC, Samba RedHat 8.0 with samba 2.2.5-10 on it.(Also used RedHat 7.2 with 2.2.6 final as well) with the exact same results. When I run wbinfo -t, I get Secret is bad 0xc000018b. I have been trying to figure this out for a few days now and can't get it working correctly. If I run wbinfo -u, all of the users appears in the list, as well when I run wbinfo

what is the 'passwd chat' line for Samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on Debian Woody that enables password synchronisation with Windows 2000 clients in a domain?

Hello! I have heard that there is a problem with using Samba along with Windows Terminal Services and that it's related to session IDs with multiple users coming from one server. I'm in the process of moving to Windows Server 2003 using Citrix and hoping to be able to revive our samba use. Has anyone had any success with using samba in a Terminal Server / Citrix environment? Thanks

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,

Hi. I am running SAMBA 2.0.7 on HP-UX 11.00 and HP-UX 10.20. I have tried adding the MultipleUsersOnConnection registry key onto my Microsoft Windows NT Server 4 Terminal Server Edition servers, running with Service Pack 6. After I make this change in the registry and reboot my WTS servers all my samba connections from the servers are still being made with one process instead of being split

Hi, I'm having a problem with the smbd process losing its connection to the password server. Smbd can successfully authenticate a user upon initial connection. Then after some time (within a matter of 10-20 minutes) if the user tries to use the mapped drive, he sometimes gets prompted with an authentication dialog box. Nothing that is typed into this box will be accepted, and the user
