Running Samba 2.2.6 on RedHat 7.2 in a Microsoft NT4 Domain, trying to create or copy a text file to a share from a MS Windows 2000 Professional workstation (client2k) gives 'Access denied' Reading the log file (level 3) for samba.client2k (not an activity I feel much comfort in doing correctly) it looks like I am being recognized as a 'guest user' which is a problem but for

Hello again! Ok, I've gotten wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g working great Now I try to run getent passwd and getent group I get my local users/groups but not the ones on the Windows 2k Server Domain Controller and it just hangs after listing the local ones. I also tried authenticating a user and it worked I'm assuming wbinfo -a DOMAIN+ingless@DOMAIN%"password" (The usernames here

Hey ppl ! My WinXP workstations are not able to join my domain. I tried to apply the registry fix for plain-text passwords but it has no effects :( My PDC seems to work fine cause i've got no problems with Win2K Workstations... Is there anything i've omitted ?

Hello, I have downloaded and compiled 2.2.6 to replace my 2.2.6pre. I spent a large part of the day debugging the startup script because it seemed to always be starting two nmbd processes instead of one. Eventually I tried running just /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd - and still got two nmbd processes. Is this correct behaviour? On the first server (Dell 4600) I thought it might be because it has

Hello Everyone, I have a few users that are complaining about the "slowness" of copying files to and saving files directly to the Samba server. From my own recollections, the speed is rather identical to the speed we experienced on our old Windows NT 4.0 fileserver. One thing that could be the impetus of this issue is that Samba is serving up files, for opening and copying from the

Hi, Firstly I want to declare I am a newbie to Samba. I am installing samba over Redhat 8.0 I need to know whether Samba can replace my NT4 PDC in the following aspects and how to do it:- 1. ACLs. Must i create the every user name in Samba as in the NT4 PDC? How do I create groups like "Protocol Stack" with space in between the groupname? (Making sure that the ACls are mapped

Did you make sure localhost resolves? Also, depending on your /etc/resolv.conf, you may have to fully qualify the host's name including the DNS domain. I seem to rember having problems with this, and some combination of using localhost or hostname.domain.edu or using the actual IP address of the host cleared up the problem.

Hi, I've been trying to get SSH tunnelling working with Samba. I'm using a Windows XP and a RedHat 8.0 box. I've closely followed the instructions from the HOWTO manual in order to set this up to no avail. I think the problem comes from the fact that my lmhosts file has no effect on the NetBIOS name cache when I preload it with the command 'nbtstat -R'. I checked the

I'm new to this group so I hope that this is the right place to ask this question (if not, let me know): We are setting up several Samba servers and we've run into a problem with file permissions. We've have a few shared folders that we'd like for some GROUPS to have read/write access and other GROUPS to have only read access. I cannot figure out how to do this because

Is there a way to make samba automatically mount a home directory? That is, a user logging in (from Linux), enters its username and password(Samba), and the system automatically mounts the user's home directory from the samba server(without asking the password again). Has anyone ever tried to do this? And succedeed :-) ? -- nneves@di.fc.ul.pt Dept. Informatica, Fac.

Hi, I've installed Samba a few times, and I always have the same problem - except now I really want to get rid of it. My Samba server is very, very, very slow on occations (not always), and some times it's really annoying. What happens is that it doesn't seem to be online for a period of 5-10 seconds once every minute! If I'm copying huge files, it's working great, but when

I have problems connecting IPSEC VPN clients on the masqueraded network to outside VPN servers. It looks like this: ipsec-user | 192.168.1.10 (DHCP assigned) | | 192.168.1.1 fw-1 (shorewall, Linux 2.6) | 20.20.20.20 (internet) | 30.30.30.30 fw-2 (IPSEC VPN endpoint) | 192.168.100.1 | | 192.168.100.2 server ipsec-user (a road warrior) is supposed to create an IPSEC tunnel to his home

Hi again, I posted this message some time ago in the list, however nobody replied yet. I find this kinda weird because the problem happens with both my XP computers, so I am pretty sure there must be at least a couple of guys out there with the same problem... Basically the problem is that when using Samba shares from XP from time to time I experience a ~30 second lockup of the shares. This

Hi all, I have a problem with extracting the right error terms from an lme-object. The fixed part of the model is quite simple (y~x1*x2, where x1 and x2 are factor variables with two levels), with random intercepts (random=~1|group). As I work with factor variables here, I would like to display this with a barplot (or something like that), with error bars representing the sem or sd of the mean

hi list, oh it''s not really a problem. Each time i fire shorewall, i run a custom iptables script: (for the openvpn machines to have route back from my bridge/fw - $SOURCEIP is the ip of my OpenVPN/Fw/bridge) iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -s 10.8.0.0/16 -j SNAT --to-source $SOURCEIP i wish to better integrate it within shorewall, so is there any config files that could achieve the

Hello Everyone, I have a slight issue with configuring a PDF printer on my Samba servers. I have input the following into my smb.conf file and it does create the printer as well as work to create PDF files, except that it only functions when "printing" to that printer via Excel 2002. If I attempt it with anything else, even the Windows Test print, it fails. Now, in the Windows

Dear list. I am preparing a R package, and the last step is to write a package vignette using Sweave. However, I am experiencing some trouble when trying to include plots in my Sweave document. That is, in my package I have made some plotting functions in which I start by calling 'new.dev()' to start a graphics device of a certain width and height, and then proceed with plot(). These

Hello list, I'm a former Trustix User (were active in that community since the very first betas), and now that my dear distro is dead, I'm looking to make a switch.. Several people recommended CentOS, so I decided to give it a spin.. I installed one new server with 5.0 a few months back, and I do have a couple of questions.. - Why does the screen flicker on and off several times
