Hi I cannot seem to find any information regarding this in the mailing lists . I am testing a UNIX PDC before I implement it to general use in the network . It works fine It would appear with the win 2000 clients. But I essentially have two problems 1. When I have PGP installed on the machine and log in with a roaming profile . It creates a network associates folder that does not get

Hi all, The two problems I'm having with ACLs on a W2k domain are still no closer to a solution. To wit, they were: (a) Users accessing the ACL properties dialog on W2k can modify and remove existing ACLs on a given file, but they cannot add new ones (that can only be done with setfacl on the cmdline; the changes are then recognised); (b) In said ACL properties dialog, the usernames

hi, i'm experiencying a strange problem with a mandrake 9.0 machine, kernel 2.4.19, samba (different versions, including latest). when I copy large amount of data from any win98 machine to a share directory on linux, after a random time the linux machine hangs; not responding even to ctrl-alt-canc, only possibility is to reset. I was using a realtek 8139 (driver 8139too) which I know

A trivial case: executing the following DOS command from the prompt line on a Win2K SP3: %windir%\system32\attrib.exe +R H:\dir can't set the R(eadonly) flag on my home dirs (2.2.7): drwxrwsr-x 4 me users 4096 Nov 27 17:59 . drwxr-sr-x 2 me users 4096 Nov 27 17:59 dir -r--r--r-- 1 me users 0 Nov 27 17:59 empty.txt drwxr-sr-x 2 me users 4096 Nov 27 17:27

Hello list, I have been using samba (was last at 2.2.2) sucessfully for nearly two years on my solaris systems as the file server to my pcs. Recently (since last friday) my XP boxes cannot map a drive, and auto-mapped home dirs cause a huge timeout of over 15 minutes! Nothing has changed in my config file, nothing changed on the system. Just to try something, today I upgraded to 2.2.7, but still

I found this in the archives: http://samba.cadcamlab.org/lists/samba/Feb2002/00318.html It pertains pretty directly to the problem I'm seeing. I first started having it with my 2.7 installed version so I upgraded to 2.8. I'm still having the same problem. Basically, I have a group of web developers that use the linux/samba server for editing files for the site. All the files are

I have the following setup: Compaq Proliant 6000 w/ 4 cpu's, 512 MB ram SuSE PRO 8.0 samba 2.2.5 w/winbind using ACL's (acl-2.0.11-2) Using samba to provide access to a share using MS NT server for authentication via winbind. All works well until the following occurs: I am getting the following errors showing in my messages file ( and also using dmesg): <1>Unable to handle

I've setup Samba as a PDC and it's working fine. I have one windows xp machine already joined in the domain and working ok. But when i tried to add another WinXP machine to the domain, i got the error: "Could not join domain because the computer name is duplicated on the network". I don't think those were he exact words, but that's what it meant. Now, there is NO other

I had a major problem to today. The owner of a company I built a network for had a directory in her home directory containing most of her work documents go missing. I looked at the log for her workstation and she did work on them in the morning. By afternoon, she return to her workstation and tried to open the directory but it was gone. The directory and all the directories and files were there

Hello, I'm trying to set up a samba server for a friend who has a mac. He's running OSX, version 10.2. He's got some really big video editing files that are well in excess of 2gb. We're trying to back these up to the samba server, but it quits right around 2gb. That seems to be a magical number. This is with version 2.2.3 of Samba, and Linux-Mandrake 8.2, ext3 file system. I

Hi guys (and girls), I came up with the idea to use samba to share files between 3 linux machines I administer. I've set it all up, it works. No problem. But.. Samba is by origin a windows filesharing application. Result: 2 files with equal names but with different case, can not be stored in the same directory by samba. I've been trying to find a way around this, and thought I had found

Hi sambafolks, I see a number of topics cropping up here repeatedly over the last few weeks: * Files > 4GB not supported This is confirmed and solved in 2.2.7a, but not in the current incarnation of smbfs (which is not part of samba, I know, but will get discussed here as a related topic) * desktop.ini weirdness in profiles I've seen this mentioned a few times with no sign of a

We are looking at implementing a Linux box running samba in the near future with about 1TB of disk online. The purpose of this box will be for basic file and printer sharing needs. I am doing research on the different journaling file systems avaible in RH 7.3 and up (ext3, reiserFS, and JFS) and was wondering if anyone has had any real world experience with them (mostly reiserFS and JFS) and

Hi all, Being new on this list I do not really know if this is the correct list to post. After searching the archives I am pretty sure the answer is not yet here (or I can't search, which can be true) My problem is as follows We are currently testing a Linux/Samba server to host the home shares for about 1000 students at our school (the test is conducted with just 10 of them).
