similar to: MAC OS 9 on Samba 3.0 vs. Samba 2.2.7

Update: Just for my personal assurance, I decided to recompile samba again making sure to use the parameters I thought I had used the first time (./configure --with-winbind --with-acl-support --with-ads --with-smbmount). Without changing any of my configs, I restarted samba and winbind. One trick: to change rights on a file, you must own it or be root. This is where the "force user =

I've been trying to get the acl functionality (from windows) to work now for several days and have not found a solution. I've spent many hours Googling the web, and searching the samba list archives. If someone else has this working (in the 3.0 alpha code), I would appreciate seeing your config files, if you wouldn't mind. Goal: to be able to add user/group permissions to files

Yes, they have a 30 day downloadable demo. Here's the link: http://www.network-backup.com/datasheets/nnet8linux.html The installation was a piece of cake.

Follow up to my question for those also looking for backup solutions: Thanks for the input, it was helpful and gave me some leads. For What it's worth: I've been testing Novastor's Novanet 8.5. Pretty impressive. It has a nice GUI interface or a command line menu system, backups performed well, recognized my library without any extra effort on my part. Pricing isn't too bad

I'm curious to what people are using for backing up their samba servers. Here's are some specs to consider: - 1TB (yes, that's terabyte) of data - multiple servers backup to one tape drive connected to a server (preferably a linux system) - using an autoloader (in this case, an HP 1/9 LTO system) - need to be able to backup daily changes and/or changes since last full backup

Just wanted to thank those who have helped me (knowingly (such as Andrew Bartlett) and others unknowingly) get Samba set up to work with MS Active Directory and with ACL support working. As is typical in lists like these, there are way more requests than thanks. Being in the IT industry, I know personally the never-ending deluge of help requests and the seemingly very short list of thank

If you are not using a domain and have added the users directly with the smbpasswd utility, you can just cat the smbpasswd file. Typically, it's found in /usr/local/samba/private directory. If it's long, you might want to use more (or less). Rick Segeberg Provo Site Manager, IT Department The Waterford Institute rick.segeberg@waterford.org -----Original Message----- From:

I appreciate your response and I tried your solution. However, it does not seem to help. I am using MS Active Directory on a Windows 2000 server for the authentication and rights for the users. I realize AD is based on LDAP, but it's been changed to suit Microsoft's needs - meaning it's not "pure ldap". Based on what you said, I made sure to create a user and a few groups

Intro: There have been a few postings on this subject with few answers. If anyone knows where to point those of us trying to work this out, or will enlighten us as to the limitations of ACL's and Samba, we would appreciate your help. So far, acl.bestbits.at does not have any information on this particular problem. Environment: Samba 3.0 alpha 21 or 23 (I skipped 22, but most likely it had

Sorry - I should have addressed this to Paul Eggleston who started this thread. Regardless who started it (the Samba + ACL howto), my offer still stands if I can be of any help. I'd be happy to help with this documentation, input, proof reading, whatever. There's definately a big lack here and the Samba team already has their hands full.

Andrew, Thanks for your response. This reply is actually not a request for additional help. After much searching throught the lists and Google along with a lot of experimentation, I think I've got it (mostly) figure out. This post is just an effort to help others who might be struggling with the same issues as I was. I'm sure it's far from perfect and if anyone has suggestions on

If you can see the server, but not shares, you most likely have not published any directories. What version of the BE agent are you using? I've noticed 4.6 works well (the install actually works well and will walk you through the setup to publish the directories to be backed up). It's often easier to just publish root (but exclude /proc /tmp). Also, I've found out that in the hosts

Hi, I build an alpha23 samba3.0 system in win2k AD domain. Just a few days ago, it works very well. But in recent, I find it cannot work. I am sure it is the reason for kerberos authority. When I kinit a ticket successfully, it fails to run "smbclient \\Win2K-server\c$ -k", the error message will be as blow: Doing spnego session setup (blob length=109) Doing kerberos session setup

I am trying to set up Samba for the very first time in my life on a SlackWare Linux 7.1 system. I'm using kernel 2.4.2, and the Samba 2.0.7 that comes precompiled with Slackware 7. I'm only moderately clueful at this point, but I have experience with other Linux and networking stuff. I can build Samba from sources if you think that would help. I ran through the diagnostic tests given

We have experianced a strang behavior with QuarkXPress files. These files can be opened/modified/saved by user a, user b can open/modify the file but saving is not possible. With all other applications open/modify/save files is possible. We use: SuSE8.1, Samba 2.2.5, reiserfs. Directories/files are set 2770 Thank you for your help Markus

Does anybody here have any experience with Thursby's DAVE and symlinks on a Samba Server? When I connect to my Linux Samba Server via DAVE (running on Mac OS X 10.3.8), I can see all the links that I have made to files that reside in other directories on the Linux Server. However, Mac OS X thinks they are aliases. And when I try to open them, I get back a Mac error saying "The

I'm very puzzled by whats happening here. I've setup samba 2.2a3 acording to how it said to. Everythings looks fine. testparm reports 0 errors, all 10 of the samba services load w/o complaint, I can even get a list of shares/servers using smbclient -NL. Here's the output of smbclient -NL: [root@provo log]# smbclient -NL provo added interface ip=64.122.31.38 bcast=64.122.31.39

Hi all, I'm trying to find a way to remove a file lock. I haven't found any method using the smb tools. I'm assuming I could remove the file lock by deleting the entry in the locking.tbd file, but the keys are stored as binary, so I can't figure out a way to give tdbtool a proper key name to delete the entry. Anyone know how to remove a file lock? We're using samba

Hello everyone, I need to setup some directories (in RHL 7.2 running Samba 2.2.3a w/ W2K PDC) to allow multiple groups, each of which has different permissions. If this can be done on the Linux side, this would be preferred, but if it has to be done in Samba, any help in understanding how to make this happen is appreciated. I know Windows NT/W2K allows multiple groups and I would think Linux
