Hello I'm using an OOTB RH80 with recent updates, and samba 227, french language when I access a samba share from a w98 box eveything works fine but with accented chars I just can't get the right filename under linux. whatever filename I use on w98, with accented chars, it works from the w98 side (I get write and read files with their right filenames) but when I try to access those

Hello we're using samba based on the debian-package, which we translated including the configure-option "--with-quotas" The user-interaction with quotas is OK, in his (the users) view the partition-size is limited to his quota-hard-limit. This works both with XFS and EXT3. Windows (XP SP1 and SP2) administration of quota is not possible. Using 3.0.5 I can do a

Hi I posted this last week but go no answers. So I try again in case someone has any idea... I have a file server (linux with acl and quotas custom 2.4.18 kernel, samba 2.2.7a with acl, quotas and winbind) among others there's a share on which any user of the domain is allowed to put files, any user able to read and write other users' files (a public and free space) the problem is that

Hi all I wanted to send a message to users when they are mapping, to migrate to different samba server I am assuming preexec will do this, users are w2k clients, i would like w2k clients to get a message, like a popup windows box with message once they map to thier unix home directory how would i do that, does preexec will help me here thanks

Hello, Would really appreciate any advise on how the security setting should be setup. I have running Samba ver 2.0.7 on HPUX10.20. Clients run Windows 200 PCs, WinNT4 PDC. "docusers" is the UNIX home directory for document users. their individual home dir is created under their user id. so, Paul 's home directory structure is : /docusers/paul Below is an extract from the

I can ping the virtual Linux servers NetBIOS name and access a share. Perhaps someone can examine the attached named.conf file for errors and/or omissions. My virtual Linux server (172.17.60.6) has been configured as a WINS server, and a PDC. I am not, however, certain how to configure it as a DNS server beyond what is in the attached named.conf file. Here are the results of pinging the

Hi I'm a happy user of samba since years I just d/l 2.2.6, configured it (w/ winbind), compiled and installed it It's working thought, i need to control access to some resources relatively to user's appartenance to some nt groups, and i intended to do this with "read list"/"write list" or "valid users". my problem is that some group names contain blanks

FYI, I'm setting up a file server for 1000 users based on mdk 8.0, self-compiled 2.4.19 + acl patches, self compiled samba 2.2.6, 100 Mbps NIC this server is right now in a pre-prod status and is currently used only by very few users while loading several +100 MB files on a share from a NT 4 wks 100 Mbps, we got several "session cancelled" messages, and un-killable D-state smbd

Hi! I'm trying to setup samba 2.2.4 on MandrakeLinux 8.2. The server should act as a file storage for about 25 Windows 2000 clients. Setting up a "basic" server which just serves the files is easy. However, I'd also like to support NT ACLs on the Samba server. Well, what do I have to do, to get it to work? I'm using the Mandrake RPM for 2.2.4, which has ACL support

I am trying to run Samba 2.2.4 on solaris 2.8 with W2K clients. I have an NT app installed onto the Solaris 8 server which i would like to run off of the mapped samba network drive. When i try to start the NT app it attempts to read a file on the samba drive called .root.passwords but fails (This file can be accessed with notepad). The following is an extract from the samba error log. I get the

Hi all, I'm seeing doubled quotas on Windows 7 when connecting to Samba. By doubled, I mean that if I set a 1GB group quota on Linux, I see a 2GB quota on Windows 7. The quotas seem correct with Samba 3.6.19 running on a Linux 2.6.32 kernel on Mandriva; they are incorrect with Samba 3.6.22 on a Linux 3.12 kernel on Ubuntu. What could be wrong? In more detail, I'm testing on both a

Hello everyone I hope this is the right place to post this question. I have all but eliminated all Microsoft servers in my current work environment, expect two boxes, which are our PDC and BDC, they also are the DNS, Dial in With Rocket Port Card, DHCP, Winslookup servers. I would like to remove these NT boxes and replace them with a nice shiny new Linux box running Samba. Reading some of

Hello I'm trying to set up a samba server on linux that will have ACL capability and QUOTA control. I'm working on a customized 2.4.18 kernel patched for EAs and ACLs, and quotas I've also customized a 2.2.3a samba with acls, winbind, quotas... it's working fine from a pure unix point of vue, acl allow fine grained access control, quotas limit use of space, and so on with samba

hello I know smbpasswd allows a user to change its password on an NT PDC, but is there a way to manage domain accounts from linux/samba ? I have 1000's of accounts to create (all based on a very few different models) and the script has to run on a samba/linux server tia - * - * - * - * - * - * - Bien s?r que je suis perfectionniste !

Hi I have a file server (linux with acl and quotas custom 2.4.18 kernel, samba 2.2.7a with acl, quotas and winbind) among others there's a share on which any user of the domain is allowed to put files, any user able to read and write other users' files (a public and free space) the problem is that sometimes people copy files from CDs where the readonly bit is set, and once copied, nobody

hello we got a serious problem with samba 223 and winbind i didn't find alot about on the net so I thought it could be interesting to tell you we have a file server w/ mandrake 8.0, a custom kernel 2.4.18 with quotas, acls, and a custom samba 2.2.3 with quotas, acl, and winbind. samba forwards auth to an NT PDC. FS rights are given on domain user names. there are quite a lot users, ca 2000.

Hello I just moved a win nt file server to linux/samba I've performance problem with the new server thought it's a more powerful machine (and os ;-) ): programs loaded from shares take (much) longer to start A network trace shows up that the throughput needed to achieve the program run (double clic to start then exit) from the linux server is more than 3 times the one needed to run from

Hi , i have the problem if somebody is member of more than 32 (Unix) groups every group bigger than number 32 will be cut off Debug Example : [2002/08/21 09:57:51, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(319) 32 user groups: 500 502 503 504 505 506 507 508 509 510 511 512 513 514 515 516 517 518 519 520 521 522 523 524 525 526 527 528 529 530 531 532 [2002/08/21 09:57:51, 3]

Hi I plan to set up a big file server, something like motherboard with 4 ide ports and an additional 4 ide daughter card, a PIV proc and 512 or 1024 MB ram, a 100 or 1000 MB NIC, with 6 or 7 200 GB ide HDDs in a sigle box. I don't need lightning performance, just disk space. Of course this would be served by some linux os and samba questions (relative to samba configuration and behaviour) :

I've got a couple of Solaris 7 boxes that are running samba 2.2.0. When I try to copy text files from a windows 2000 client to the server, the resulting file is filled with all NULL characters. I tried copying the same file to a NT server's share and there was no corruption. When copying to the solaris share, the windows 2000 client eventually gives the following error: The
