It sounds like smbd isn't linking to the acl libs-have you run ldd against winbindd to see if it is linking to libacl.so.1? I recently had very similar symptoms running 2.2.7 under Debian and I found that I wasn't compiling against the acl libs. Make sure you have the line (this might work best if you put this line before --with-msdfs) --with-acl-support in debian/rules, Plus you have to

Hi all, Well, I'm getting somewhere I think, I now have both ACL support and domain login basically working. However I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed. Basically I want to copy over a large number of files and directories (~300k files, ~60Gb total) from an existing W2k server to a Samba server. These files have existing ACLs set, so I need to preserve them somehow. I can

Hi all, I'm using the latest alpha version (the one that comes with Debian unstable) in domain mode, setting up a member file server, with domain clients authenticating to a W2k machine. I'm trying to use the "add user script" option to create new users automagically, but it never seems to run. The script in this case is a handwritten perl script, and I've added a

Hi all, I'm having trouble making Samba recognise ACLs properly - a W2k client isn't using them fully. I have patched the kernel, recompiled Samba, etc. I've gotten it working to the point where the kernel-side of things seems to work fine (with getfacl, etc). Also, the W2k machine (via Samba) can see the ACL settings that are applied to a file. The problem arises when I try

I had a similar issue on my Debian box. It seemed that setfacl didn't care for special characters. I changed the separator character to - (dash) instead of + or \ and it worked fine. Good luck!

You should be able to find the server in W2K's server manager and confirm that it is a trusted member of the Domain. It sounds like smbd isn't linking to the acl libs-have you run ldd to see if you are linking to libacl.so.1? My recent problem was similar and I found that I wasn't compiling against the acl libs. Make sure you have the line (Max said you should have this before

Hi all, I'm using the smbcacls command to query a W2k server from a Linux Samba 2.2.7a client. (This is for the script that I'm writing, which I will post soon - I know at least one person was interested...) It all works fine, but it's very slow - it takes about 1 second per file. "Very" in this case is relative, but since I intend to run it on ~150k files... I've

Hi all, I have a 2.2.7a member server (on Debian unstable), acting as a file server for a W2k domain (which also has some NT4 clients, ie. mixed mode). I'm also using ACLs. Imagine I have a file on the server with an ownership of DOMAIN+foo (full permission - rwx). I also have a user ACL on that file of DOMAIN+bar, also rwx. This all works fine. I was initially running into a problem

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

if i understand correctly, only the owner, and root, can change attributes of a file? thus, even though group members may be given permissions to write, and delete, a file, they cannot change attributes, without the workaround of copying and replacing the file? and do i understand correctly that on winnt and successors, permission to change attributes (eg 'everything' permission) can be

A problem has arisen with the way samba handles file creation dates compared to NT/win2k, which prevents xcopy /d from working correctly. On NT/Win2k, files copied from another NT machine using xcopy end up with the modified dates equal to the original modified date of the file, and the created and accessed dates become the date of the xcopy operation. On Samba, files copied from an NT

I had a simular problem in a single server (unix) environment with PC clients although we were using NFS stack for drive maps. The issue is came down to this: a MS-DOS pathspec cannot exceed 64 characters, with the pathspec looking something like 'server_name:\directory\dir...\...\filename.ext". Your NT and Samba systems are probably selected a SMB protocol like Core Plus or LAN Man 1.0,

Right in the middle of a big XCopy from Win2K SP3 to Samba 3.0.8 I get an "Access Denied" kicked back from XCopy and it ends. XCopy is building dirs from scratch on the Samba server - starting for a clean empty share. XFS FS on the server, Debian Sarge. I've heard of odd things with RoboCopy, but what about XCopy doing this? I suppose I will be cranking up the logs... or is there

Hi I had sent a mail about a week ago regarding a xcopy problem I had. I am trying to copy an image of an nt workstation from an unixware 2.1.3 server running samba 1.9.18p8. Initially the client is a dos client, who connects to the unixware server and downloads files using xcopy. My problem after copying a certain number of files xcopy fails with path not found. On further investigation I

I'm trying to do some quick backups from a Win2K laptop to a Fedora Core 1 desktop but it ain't working. The backups are just a bunch of xcopy's. Most of them run fine but two fail and I don't understand why. It appears that xcopy is attempting to create directories in both cases. When I run the backup targeting a Win98 desktop there is no problem. Here are two examples of

We use MS DOS 7 ala Win98 SE and the M$ client for DOS to logon to Samba 3.0.13 Debian Stable package from samba.org. Also one other unique thing, we have XCOPY32.EXE copied as XCOPY.EXE thus it is really XCOPY32.EXE we are executing, just as XCOPY.EXE. ;-) Example of failing line of code... echo f|xcopy u:\foo\bar.txt h:\file.txt where U: is the drive mapped to the server and H: is a local RAM

hello, has anyone got samba-2.2.5pre1 working with "xcopy /o" ? it doesn't work over here with win2ksrv (as client) and samba-2_2 CVS as server (suse linux 8.0, xfs-acls, kernel 2.4.18). is xcopy /o supposed to work at all? any hint will be greatly appreciated. thanks, guenther -- Guenther Deschner guenther.deschner@suse.de SuSE Linux AG

Hi I'm trying to keep a windows folder synchronized with a samba share using "xcopy /d" ,but it keeps copying again and again a number of files at random that haven't been modified. With a search over internet, I found that this is a pretty old problem, because I managed to find messages from other users that had the same problem, but unfortunatly no solution. Even upgrating to

Hi all, I came into a problem with the following situation. One Windows 2k3 server which joined into a AD, and when I tried to copy some files the owner ship of which contails both domain user/group sid and local user/group sid information, to samba server, only domain sid information could be kept, and the windows local user/group sid info was dropped. I verifyed this by using "xcopy /O
