I can ping the virtual Linux servers NetBIOS name and access a share. Perhaps someone can examine the attached named.conf file for errors and/or omissions. My virtual Linux server (172.17.60.6) has been configured as a WINS server, and a PDC. I am not, however, certain how to configure it as a DNS server beyond what is in the attached named.conf file. Here are the results of pinging the

I played with the smb.config file long enough to get both the smbd and nmbd daemons to run. Then ran TESTPARM against the correct smb,conf file without issue. Finally I tried the following command: [root@cofr3 /]# smbclient -U illingsk -L MySQL added interface ip=172.17.60.6 bcast=172.17.63.255 nmask=255.255.248.0 wins_srv_died(): WINS server 172.16.0.121 appears to be down.

I've been doing some testing between Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) and Windows 2000 Server (no SP and SP4) -- specifcally testing file transfers from a Samba 2.2.8a server.

Have just upgraded to samba 1.9.18p3 on a RedHat 5.0 linux system... now... when i type smbstatus... this is what i get.. Couldn't open status file /var/lock/samba/STATUS..LCK so i assume that for some reason... this status file is not created upon startup.. Pat.

I moved an entire RH 6.2 server from one CPU to a new one using a tape backup/restore. Everything from the old server is working on the new server, but when SysV starts up smb, the nmbd daemon (2.0.6) exits with an error: create_subnets: No local interfaces! eth0 has already started according to the logs and console. Any ideas? Thanks. ______________________ Greg Kelley, IT Director SSA, EAA,

Hi, I have a samba server joined to a Win 2000 domain. It all works fine except that for some reason if a Win2KPro client has a file/folder open overnight (or for a long time), then they are disconnected. I can't find a relevant timeout setting when browsing through swat. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks, Alistair. _________________________________________________________________

I've had this problem since FreeBSD 4.3. This problem continues with my FreeBSD 4.4 machine. I can't connect from my Win98se and Win2kPro machines to my FreeBSD 4.4 Samba server. I've tried it all... but still no luck. I've run smbd and nmbd manually with the "-D" parameter. I can connect internally from my FreeBSD 4.4 box using "./smbclient

Hi, I've recently upgraded a few of the win98 machines here to win2kpro, and now, after logging in, the password has to be entered again for the shares. I've searched around but can't find a solution to this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is on Samba 2.0.7 on FreeBSD, and here is smb.conf: [global] guest account = nobody security = user workgroup

I have a Deskjet 690C connected to my machine running RH7.1 + linux 2.4.13 + samba 2.2.2 installed from RPM. I have setup the printer with RH's printconf-gui as a local printer. In local use it works fine. I have the following in my /etc/samba/smb.conf: --<snip>-- [global] security = share printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes --</snip>-- and

Is anybody suffering from a similar problem or can anybody suggest a cure or a pointer......? I've various hardware platforms (both HP & Intel though all SMP) scattered around remote sites each running one of the following OSs (Redhat 7.2, Redhat 7.3, Mandrake 8.2 & Mandrake 9.0) each with Samba installed (either the version that ships with the relative OS or 2.2.5.2 or 2.2.8.2

Since upgrading to FireFox 1.0.2 I have noticed a large number of problems connecting to web sites that are reached without difficulty using MS-IE 6. The symptom is a message box that declares that the "The Document Contains No Data" which, ironically enough, is the very error I get when trying to reach http://www.google.ca/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://kb.mozillazine.org/Do

How do I use a backup server to mirror my Roaming Profiles? I currently have a Samba server running as PDC, and it stores the profiles. I would like to have another computer available as a BDC, which can mirror the profiles in case the PDC dies or is somehow disconnected from the network. There is a real possibility that my network might get chopped in half, and I'd like both halves to be

I'm so confused about the use of Samba. This is my situation: I have one Win2k domain with Active Directory. The main network has only one PDC, but in others networks I have 5 servers more, all under the same main domain (I don't have subdomains). I need to put some files in a Solaris 8 and 9 servers that Win2kPro and WinXP can to access, with its domain accounts. Aditionally, I

Samba and Win2k just don't seem to want to work together. I get disconnects after about 13MB of data transfer, and the Win2k box just loses the share as if it were disconnected. Re-establishing the share works, but data transfer of large files or working with large amounts of data is impossible. From the amount of traffic on this newsgroup regarding WinXP and Win2K problems with Samba, I

I'm having a problem with Samba/LDAP authentication for Windows boxen from my Samba PDC. I've diagnosed as much as I can and fiddled with the relevant settings I know of, but I'm not making any progress. I'm running stock Red Hat 8.0 with LDAP (OpenLdap 2.0.25) authentication (fully tested and working). I have Samba (ver. 2.2.5) set up as PDC, which works flawlessly (all
