Hi. I run SuSE 8.1 and samba here. On the linux machine I have a HP1100A on the parallel port, and a HP-DJ895Cxi on a USB port. I can print ok from this linux machine to both printers. From my laptop, that runs WIN98, I can print to the HP1100A printer. I cannot print to the DJ895Cxi, even if its set up as a network printer. I could do this with SuSE dists up to 8.0. From 8.1 printers are

I'm trying to set up a Samba mount point to a WinME computer so that a user can mount the file system.

Hi, I am deploying samba for an embedded system. The requirement is that the system should be able to mount windows share points. I believe "smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt" components are needed to do the same. I am not very clear about smbmnt though! I find that smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt are all quite huge. Around 300 to 400Kb each. I understand that Samba is capable of doing

Is there any way to use/build smbmount on a HP-UX system? If not, is there an alternitive methods to read/write file to a windows server from a HP-UX machine? Thanks, Jerry S. Horton

Hi there, How do I automate smbmnt so that when logging on, it mounts the required shared directories on an NT4.0 file system using the user name and password I used t gain access to the GUI ? I s this possible. I am currently running Network Neighborhood and have been using this application for access but this requires that I scan mount and log-on again before gaining access to that share.

Hi, I'm trying to run smbmount on a machine with the root filesystem mounted as read only (it is a little embedded Linux PC which I want to pick up some files from its controlling NT box). The problem is that smbmnt doesn't appear to support the -n flag that normal mount supports which avoids accessing /etc/mtab. Can any one suggest any solutions to this ? Dave

Dear all 1) Could you happen to know why smbmnt, smbmount and smbumount are not compiled whem I rum "make" from the source directory? I found (for example) bin/testparms in the PROGS1 Makefile variable but no reference to those little fellows. 2) How do I change the config directory to be /etc instead of /usr/local/samba/lib? I tryed "./configure --sysconfdir=/etc" and it

Hi, I'm attempting an one-to-one migration from courier-imap to dovecot-imap. current state: Imap-server has a self signed certificate Every client/user has a self signed client certificate that is used for SSL/TLS client authentication. All certificates are self signed "standalone" cerfificates - no CA hierarchy/structure is made. With courier-imap we could just put every

At the end of a printerjob in my HP-DJ895Cxi and HP-1100A in my samba-server (SuSE Linux 8.1) an extra -blank- sheet is comming out of the printers. >From the server if printing direct there's no extra paper sheet. I know the problem has been on the list before, and can also see how to solve it, but there's a problem. From default the SuSE 8.1 is installed with cups, and I wanted to

What is the recommended way to move a message from one mailbox to another using CLI - serverside commands ? Since IMAP does not support transactional moves between mailboxes - The only thing that comes to my mind is this operation: 1) extract message from mailbox A using "doveadm fetch" 2) inject message into mailbox B using "dovecot-lda" 3) expunge message from mailbox A

Hello all, I read in the smbmnt man page that: "A setuid smbmnt will only allow mounts on directories owned by the user, and that the user has write permission on." I am trying to set up a mount on /mnt/laptop. I have given my users 777 permissions on the directory, but it is owned by root. Is there any way that I can work around this. It appears from the man page that smbmnt

Hello, I'm trying to run mailfront SMTP (http://untroubled.org/mailfront/) under Dovecot 2.x process/service supervision My intention was to utilize the fact that dovecot2.x seems to have some kind of generic process/service supervision as well as builtin ssl support.

Hi all, I was wondering, has anyone built a complete web interface for SMB servers? What I was thinking of would be something like SMB2WWW, but that would also allow the user to click command buttons to delete, upload, move, rename, etc. Permissions to the shares would be established the same way as they are done now, by asking for a username / password on restricted shares. Essentially, I
