Hi all, banging my head on the wall here... I think I'll never really understand codepages stuff. smbd is v 3.0.1, client is french win98 - yuk my smb.conf reads: unix charset = UTF-8 display charset = UTF-8 dos charset = CP850 when I create a folder/file with accents in it, I can create it ok, but reading proves impossible. If i create file ??????, it shows ok in the file explorer

Hello, We've just migrated from Netware to Samba and have only 1 problem that's affecting our users. When a user creates a new document in a directory the owner and group or both set to root. The directories are owned by a specific user and there is also a group associated with the directory. I was expecting that any new documents created would have the same user and owner as the

I have Samba 2.2.6 complied against Cups 1.1.16 on a Sparc system running Solaris 9. Cups has replaced the stock system V lp spooler on this system (original packages removed.) Cups working from UNIX command line is A-OK. I have been working on setting up Samba to play nice with cups. I have followed the instructions from both the Cups and Samba websites to set up downloading of the

Greetings' i have installed a redhat 6.2 on my machine. I have also installed Samba 2.0.6 on it and seems working fine for almost a year. But one of my problem is "Disappearing Mounts".

With the final release of 2.4.21, would it be appropriate for Urban to consider updating all of the2.4.18 smbfs patches as a single file. I've had a problem for a while where I'm trying to mount my shares on a windows 2000 server with some (french canadian) accentuated characters in the file names and directory names, which smbfs mounts with question marks. At first I thought this was

Ok, I've tried all the "common" fixes, such as turning oplocks off on the share. Twice a day the database has to be repaired. running samba-3.0.7-2.FC2 Here's the pertinent section: comment = Aeries path = /home/aeries valid users = @aeries read only = No create mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 inherit permissions = Yes

I'm using Wine 0.9.11~winehq1-1 on Debian Sid. I've been trying to install IE6 and MS Office 2000 for the last few days. As a side note, the only way I managed to install IE6 was through Sidenet. No luck with any other method (reg files, winetools...) Office 2000 installs, but when I try to run the program it says: warn:module:load_dll Failed to load module

Wine seems to be trying to run MS programs. 'wine /windows/Programs/access/office/msaccess.exe' starts 'access'.

Hello all Being new on this list I would like to search the archieves before posting, but unfortunately I cannot find out how to perform such a search. So it looks as if I'll have to ask for help before searching the archieves anyway. How does one search for keywords in the archieve? Best regards, Morten

Hi, I'm using FreeBSD 4.8 and samba 2.2.8 on a Pentium 2 (dual processor, 600 MHz, 512 MB memory) and at this moment everything is working, but I've one serious problem: I've made an filesystem /data with some shares like /public, /temp, /projects etc. I'm now copying a 170 MB file from my local harddisk to a samba share. Normally this should take less then 30 seconds, at

Using VMware - Host: WinXP; Guest: Linux 8.0: Following advice I received elsewhere yesterday, I modified Linux start up files (level 3) with mount -t smbfs to connect to a shared directory in WinXP. On WinXP, both the directory and the share permissions give full control to Everyone. On Linux, the both /mnt and /mnt/linuxShare have drwxrwxrwx. As root, on the Linux side I have full control in

I'm trying to get a recursive file listing with smbclient: smbclient //host/share -Uusername%password -c "ls -alFR" But I get an error: NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_FILE listing \-alFR Evidently, smbclient thinks I'm asking for a file mask. Is there a way to get a recursive file listing on a samba share so I can pipe it to wc -l for a file count? Ideally, I'd like to: (This won't

I am looking for an LDAP client to manage the LDAP server that we are going to use when we switch to samba3. A Windows variety would be OK, a web interface would be even better. Just looking for suggestions to try. Thanks, Brandon

Hi I can use Appleshare to see my Samba shares when the Mac OS9 and the Samba is in the same segment, but when I move my Mac to another segment separated by a Firewall (all ports open), I can't see my Samba shares?

Our shared file server decided to take a hiatus from WINS earlier this week. On friday we could see the machine name in the browse function of any windows box when you went to the map network drives portion of windows explorer. Now the only way I can map a network drive is to enter the server's IP like this: \\ 192.168.xxx.xxx\sharename But this also presents a problem because this server

The system has latest redhat and samba stable versions compiled from source and all works except when coping files from windows (2000/XP) to samba server. When copying it is very slow, extremely slow and locks up the copy most of the time. I checked DNS and Network and all is working fine. Samba is configured in share mode as we just share a few directories. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I run a script to mount several file shares from machines running W98 and W2000 so that I can do incremental dumps every night of these file shares. smbmount almost always fails to exit. This causes the script to stall and so the dumps are not done. In the am, if I kill the smbmount processes, the dumps complete successfully, since the mounts were in fact correctly completed. (I know that

Hi all, I'm new on this List, I'm having troubles with samba at share from Linux <Gentoo Ker 2.4.20> to Win2k (Samba version 2.2.8a).
