similar to: Samba goes catatonic...?

Just wondering if anyone has thoughts (good or bad) about this product (RAV AntiVirus for Samba (Linux i386))...or any other? I have a client that wants to have A/V *on* their samba server, rather than just scanning the shares from a WS. Any comments regarding ANTIVIRUS PROTECTION and SAMBA are gratefully welcome! TIA -Ryan Beisner

Hi all I've found a few different packages (RAV, Kaspersky,Vexira, Clam ...) which offer Anti-Virus features for Linux servers. It looks like RAV specifically supports Samba servers. My question is: Can anyone relay their experiences / opinions / thoughts about which one would work best in a multiple-server environment (~100 Windows Clients)? Thanks in advance -- all comments are

Hi Dongyang, Yan, When testing BTRFS with RAID 0 metadata on linux-3.3, we see discard ranges exceeding the end of the block device [1], potentially causing dataloss; when this occurs, filesystem writeback becomes catatonic due to continual resubmission. The reproducer is quite simple [2]. Hope this proves useful... Thanks, Daniel --- [1] attempt to access beyond end of device ram0: rw=129,

Hi All I recently began having issues where there would be a runaway SMBD process listed in TOP, having a Pri of around 25, and using 70 to 95% CPU indefinitely. IPTRAF reports around 600kbps constantly in and out from the subject workstation, with nothing going on - on the workstation. This traffic is parallel to the runaway SMBD process ... the traffic dies when the SMBD process is

Previously when firefox went catatonic to the point that I could not even scroll, its CPU usage had gone to 100%+. Now top tells me that firefox, Web Content (with a space) or sometimes kswap... has process state D, uninterruptable sleep. Any suggestions on how to deal? I often have a lot of tabs open, so discovering the right one was hard enough before. Usually, it was something relatively new,

Hi all Just wondering if anyone has pointers for graphing data from Samba using MRTG. I already have MRTG graphing things like signal strength (cisco aironet pci), total kbps in/out each interface, mem and disk i/o usage. I'd like to graph, for example, average number connections over time; or maybe logins per hour .... or failed logins per hour. I know MRTG's requirements for input

Using WINE 20010323 under a stock Mandrake 7.2 system. Word 2000 seems to work but won't save files. If the file exists, it just says, ``file exists'' [OK]. If you save anywhere fancy like ``My Documents'' it says this is not a real filesystem location [OK]. If you specify a drive and path (h:\filename.doc) it tells you that this is an invalid filename, please check it [OK].

I have a friend who has been having an intermittent problem with his nice, shiny new IBM x226 server. It's a Xeon processor, 1.5Gb RAM, hardware RAID controller running CentOS 3 The system will will sometimes run for a couple of weeks, then simply lock up -- nothing on the console, no response to pings, no "caps-lock" lights, no kernel panic indicators, nothing in the logs to

Our site has been experiencing problems with Samba causing kernel panics under heavy use. We are running Mandrake 7.0 and Samba 2.0.6. We are no longer using the distro included with Mandrake - we actually downloaded the 2.0.6 release and recompiled. Downloading from Samba shares causes no problems - and downloads are frequent and heavy - but uploading similar amounts of data leaves a catatonic

it just says /usr/sbin/swat.new Aborted when i run it from the command line. nothing i can see in the logs... The swat binary from a 2 week old head now (with the rest of the installation from today's head) seems to work okay. what's going on with swat - did i screw up the build? Are others also having problems? (nothing in the marc) brad

After trying to get WinXP (Pro) to try and find my domain so I can log on I've finally done it, but now when I try and join my WinXP client to the domain, windows asks me to enter the username and password of an account with permission to join the domain. Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

Hi everyone! I've already deployed samba-2.2.7a-2 and enabled openLDAP support. I now have a machine configured as a domain controller authenticating all windows users via openLDAP. openLDAP is also authenticating all of our linux users. I would like to install Exchange2000 on a windows2000 machine so our windows users can do calendaring (sendmail already handles all of our email needs).

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this one. I am having trouble getting LDAP and samba working properly on my Debian Woody box. I am using OpenLDAP 2.0.27-3 and the unsable packaged Samba version 2.999+3.0 and am using the samba.schema for my LDAP database. Whenever I try to join the network using either W2K or smbclient the LDAP debug log shows that the following filter is being

I am running Samba 3.0 HEAD with LDAP 2.0. I have ldapsam enabled buy when I try to log into my server from a W2K machine I get the following in my error log: sam_password_ok: NO NT password stored for user root. The log file shows that Samba successfully retrieved the root posixAccount record and the log displays some of the data (i.e. home directory) that is stored for root in LDAP. The

I have read over the lists and search the web, I know this question has been asked before, but I've not been able to fix my problem so I'll ask here. I have been successful in joining the XP machine to the domain however it when I try to login to the domain windows instantly kicks up the message: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domaincontroller is down or

Is there any support for having a UNIX share accessible from a Windows XP machine? If so, what else must I tweak? Any help would be apreciated. Thanks

Hi- I'musing the smbldap tools to create ldap entries for user logins through samba. I was just wondering if anyone knew what format userPassword is stored in. Is it an md5 hash?

Hi all, one of the win2k clients of my network uses an ID with one space inside, e.g. "jack smith". I succeeded in creating a Linux user with such a name, but have troubles in adding him to the smb users. Any suggestion? PS Running RH 8.0 & Samba 2.2.5 When i had RH 6.2 & Samba ?.?.? the trick worked out. Thanx maq

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,
