similar to: Why am I getting this error?

I'm sure this is something simple, but I can't figure it out. After a printing system upgrade, my old PDF-writer script (which acted as an lp input filter) stopped working. I took this as an opportunity to rewrite it to work straight from Samba. But I'm having an odd problem -- I can't find Samba's job file. Here's the entry: [pdf2] path = /export/spool

For some time now I've had this type of error showing up in my logs: [2004/09/16 11:52:08, 0] smbd/service.c:set_current_service(56) chdir (/export/downloads) failed I've Googled, I've looked at the source, and I still can't understand why this error appears. What's really odd is that everything seems to work fine, in spite of the error. Could someone please explain what

I have a share I can't seem to create files on, and I can't figure out why. I get "Access denied" from Windows, and the samba log shows this: [2004/07/13 10:52:26, 2] smbd/open.c:open_directory(1293) open_directory: failing create on read-only share [2004/07/13 10:52:26, 2] smbd/open.c:open_directory(1293) open_directory: failing create on read-only share The share has the

One of our employees is having an odd problem with Adobe Photoshop. Files he saves with Photoshop are saved with permissions 777, completely ignoring both the create mask and the default ACL for the directory. Files he creates with other programs have the correct permissions. This has me stumped. It appears I can reproduce the problem at will. Client is Windows NT 4.0 SP6a and Adobe Photoshop

Before I go and try to write something myself, I'm curious if anyone has a script that they're using for setting and clearing the MWI on a legacy PBX. I need to pick up a Zap channel and dial #63XXX to set the MWI, or #64XXX to clear it, where XXX is the extension number. One complication is that I've got a couple dozen extensions to handle the MWI for, and only four channels to work

I'm trying to set up a Linux-based dialin server on our company network. I'd like to have PPP authenticate using winbindd, if possible. I feel like I've almost gotten it to work, but I can't quite get there. Files: /etc/pam.d/ppp: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_nologin.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so account required

Okay, this is a recurring problem that really has me frustrated. I have a samba server that's using security=server. There are four people who use it. It works fine for three of them, but the fourth one gets endlessly prompted for his password and is never allowed to log in. All are from NT 4.0 clients. What's really puzzling is that when I look at the log at debug level 2, I get the

Is there a menu tree diagram somewhere for the Voicemailmain application?

I'm interested in setting up Asterisk as a voice mail system for our Toshiba Strata CTX100 PBX. Our current voice mail system connects to the PBX with four analog extensions. Does anyone have information on how to integrate this kind of system with Asterisk? I've looked at the legacy integration section of the Wiki, but it doesn't seem to have anything about Toshiba systems. ---

I'm still struggling with this, and people keep asking me why the PDF printer still isn't working...does anyone have any suggestions? -----Original Message----- From: David Brodbeck Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 4:09 PM To: 'samba@samba.org' Subject: PDF printing problem - can't find Samba's file?

I'm running Samba 2.2.3 with winbind for authentication. Much to my surprise, I found I had a need to connect an MS-DOS system to the network. I'm using MSCLIENT to do so. I can successfully log into the domain and map drives on Windows NT servers, but I'm having trouble mapping Samba shares. Examining the log shows that the DOS machine is apparently trying to connect with a username

The legacy PBX I'm working with does in-band disconnect notification -- it sends a * touchtone when the line is hung up. I've been trying to get this to work with Asterisk. I added a * extension to my menu context that plays "Goodbye" and hangs up. This works fine if I manually press *, but it never triggers when I hang up and the PBX sends it. I've plugged in an analog

We use POSIX ACLs (under ext2fs) with a fairly complicated set of permissions. Each folder has default permissions that should cause anything created under it to also have the correct permissions. What I'm seeing is occasionally a folder will be created and its default permissions are not set. When files are created under this folder, they of course have the wrong permissions because there

Hi I actually had this same problem when running up samba originally. Check that the user has a valid unix acount and that you have added that to the folder share/valid users section.

I'm exploring the idea of using Linux as a workstation OS for some of the users where I work. Most of the issues I've looked at seem resolvable, but I keep running into one sticking point. We rely heavily on shared folders on our Samba server, using ACLs to restrict things on a departmental basis. What I'd need is a way to mount these folders with the permissions of the current

Sorry, my bad. I meant 'wbinfo -t'.

We tried that also. It didn't work either. But since I was pointed to bug 1221, I removed the matching of an apostrophe in util_str.c (fell back to 2.2 behaviour) and that looks like it works. My user is able to map his shares again. Thanks for all who helped. Mike -----Original Message----- From: David Brodbeck [mailto:DavidB@mail.interclean.com] Sent: Monday, June 07, 2004 4:23 PM To:
