I've been reading this list for a few weeks now and I've given advice on questions that look challenging but I've deleted MANY questions like these: "How do I (easy question found in the documents)?" Though I don't count myself an expert, I've known enough experts to see that they _HATE_ it when you don't invest some time before asking a question. I too have

Hi all, We use samba here at our site as an interop solution for use with ClearCase. I'm afraid I'm just a lowly ClearCase administrator not a Unix administrator. All our solaris servers are running Solaris 8 and we're using Samba version 2.2.2 First Question : Our Unix Admin guy has said that we can't upgrade our version of Samba as 2.2.2 is the latest version that Sun have

I'm trying to set up a Samba server with ACLS. Versions: - xfs in kernel-2.4.20. - samba-2.2.7a compiled with ACL support I'm trying first with smbcacls. But I can't manage to guess the syntax of the ACL command. I want the user "frankie" could RWX a file owned by "javi" #smbcacls //localhost/public te1st.txt -A ACL:frankie:0/0/RWX -U javi Failed to parse ACL

I have been playing with samba for a short time. I am not a programmer but a I have some questions on if acls within samba are possible, regardless of acl's in the file system or kernel. In samba now, you can have read list or write list and say this user and/or group has write and/or this user and/or group has read only. This is a scaled down version of an acl. What if they created a

I have a Samba PDC installed to authorize my windows network clients. And it is running on Solaris. I want to install a one another Samba file server and I want it to authorize windows clients by consulting the PDC. This second server must also paricipate in the domain the PDC is responsible for. How can I do this? Thanks, Cyril.

This is more of a pam question then a samba question, but I thought I'd start here and see if I can get an answer. I've gotten pam_winbind.so working with gdm (on RHAT 8) using the following /etc/pam.d/gdm file. I've put + signs to show the lines I added I added to the stock RHAT 8 gdm pam def.: #%PAM-1.0 + auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so + auth

Hi, I'm trying to setup a RedHat 8 fileserver, it must work seamlessly within our 2000/NT network. After some research, I believe the first thing I need to do is install ACL support. I tried doing this once, didn't go well, had to reinstall RedHat. What files do I need and from where, to install ACL support for RedHat 8?

Hi, I have 2 linux machines, SOURCE and DEST on a network. I create some snapshots of the file structure on SOURCE and these snapshots have extended attributes. I want to copy the snapshots from SOURCE over to DEST over the network, but I don't want to lose the information on the extended attributes. Is there a way to do this using the samba protocol? Or do I have to modify the source code to

G'day all, I'm using Asterisk 1.4 and am trying to work out a way to bring people into a conference call. In the ideal scenario two people would be talking and one of them would push some keys, then a phone number and then the three of them would be in a conference. From there they should be able to bring in other people as well. This seems to be what the Asterisk n-way call HOWTO

My RedHat 8.0 workstation doesn't want to play nice with Winbind. The rest of our Samba servers (on RedHat 7.3) are working fine, and I am familiar with setting up Winbind. Samba: 2.2.7a (RPM from Samba.org. RedHat's RPMs do same thing.) Kernel 2.4.20 NT 4 domain I'd copied the pam and smb.conf from a working box in testing. Getent passwd and group works, BUT getent group

Does anybody know more about groups? I am considering switching from NT to Samba domain and have made some test. Unfortunately I need to make two additional groups, except Domain Admin (one of them is Domain Users). Is it possible to make that with the stable version of Samba? And another, but not so important (for now) question. Currently I have a Samba server, providing files and printers

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to steer me in the right direction and/or help me solve my problem. We have a number of Linux servers (RH6.2 -> RH8) which connect to the same share on a Win2000 Server. We've been working kinda hard to get everything upgraded to either RH7.3 or RH8.0 since we rarely get the opportunity. 2 similar servers (one dev, one prod) access this same window

While running configure on samba2.2.4 source on an HP-UX 10.20 OS, I get the following: checking configure summary... ERROR: No locking available. Running Samba would be unsafe configure: error: summary failure. Aborting config What exactly does "No locking available" mean, and is there a workaround?

Hello, already checked the Mailinglist archive for HPUX Problems, but havent found exact this: ./configure --prefix=/opt --without-pam --with-ssl-dir=/opt/OpenSSL --with-lastlog=/var/adm/wtmp --with-egd-pool=/dev/entropy --with-tcp-wrappers --with-pid-dir=/var/run --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh and get after a make: gcc -O2 -Wall -D_HPUX_SOURCE -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/include

hello, I'm having a problem with print files not being deleted out of /var/spool/samba directory after a print job completes. Right now I am running RedHat 7.3, Samba 2.2.5 with CUPS 1.1.14 as my printing system. I was under the impression that after the job completed Samba was suppose to remove the job from that spool directory. Right now it just grows and grows until I have to

Hi, I'm trying to setup samba server on FreeBSD-4.7-STABLE, with samba version 2.2.7a. It runs so good (better than our snap server :). I need to know if should be possible, that users can modify, save, and all other possible operations on files except delete it. My users config are, more or less: All users have their uid All users are in same gid Some project admins (they are on

Hello, I'm installing 2.2.7a, or attempting to at any rate. I've compiled it from source using the following instructions: http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html Anyways, I've got it set up so that it works. Now I'm trying to get to a point where I can interface it like I have with a different Linux box that is working without any problems. When I did the

[I wish the list archives were searchable, this most likely is a repeat question] We have a set of cron jobs that do regular rsyncs mirroring two trees. This has been pretty stable. Over the weekend, almost all of them broke with this message: rresvport: bind: Permission denied (15728) Error reading 4 bytes : EOF Under what conditions does this error occur? It looks like it couldn't bind
