Hi, The following is done on a samba share:- When I want to hide files in on the Windows interface, I right-click the file and check on the hidden attribute, but the file still appears there. Must I rename the file with a dot in front in order to hide it? Any alternative to allow the use of Windows interface to hide it? Thanks. adrian

Our office is running Samba 2.2.x on Red Hat 7.x We have a mixed bag of Win98 and recent W2K clients. The new W2K clients have no trouble connecting to the current shares including a home share: [homes] comment = Home Directory writeable = yes read only = no browseable = no create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 hide dot files = yes veto files = /desktop/ veto files = /.*/ inherit

G'day, I'd like to know how to restrict access to the [homes] share. Currently, each user is able to read/write to his/her own share, and by typing \\machine\anotheruser can open another user's share and read/write there too. I would like to restrict access so that a user can only read/write to their own share only. Here is some of the relevant config: [global] workgroup = ASDF

Help, I've just downloaded your latest source into my sparc, and it won't run configure. When I enter "./configure" it returns an error message that it doesn't find a valid CC. I looked and I have a /usr/ucb/cc compiler. I'm running Solaris 8 10/0. What can I do to get configure to run???????? Thanks for your help, John Wojtusiak

Apologies if this has been covered already, I can't find any helpful hints after 2 hours searching.... Testparm refuses to work on my e250 box - says it can't find the file? Any pointers to useful docs will be greatly appreciated (other than SAMS books and O'Rielly - been there, done that!), especially any relating to Solaris 8 and SAMBA! TIA Jo

Hello, I am wondering if anyone could help me out with the following questions: 1. How to uninstall Samba? 2. How to install/upgrade/uninstall Samba from Mandrake 9.0 to the latest Samba version via source code (I noticed that MDK9 installed Samba to different places. And the document:"Using Samba" mentioned the file "inetd.conf" but I couldn't find it in MDK9.)

All, I have been terribly pleased with openbsd 3.2 I was using it as a mail/samba server with postifx on a pentium pro 200 with 1 gig of memory. Well I wanted to add a larger harddrive than what I have in it now only 6.4 gig. Well the machine would not see it and for some reason after hours and hours of trying I can't get a tekram 395UW and a 18gig scsi to be the boot drive and having failed

Good Morning I am new to SAMBA and I am just getting started. I tried to do the ./configure and came up with this error.

So... I upgraded via RPMs (actually, I uninstalled 2.2.7, and then installed 2.2.8 because of the dependencies... Is there a better method to upgrading?) this past weekend. Monday, end of the day, the entire machine crashed. No unusual circumstances, it sits there acting as a PDC on a Mandrake 7.2 Pentium 200 with 40MB of ram with not much else going on. Suddenly the whole machine locks up,

Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

Hi everyone! I've already deployed samba-2.2.7a-2 and enabled openLDAP support. I now have a machine configured as a domain controller authenticating all windows users via openLDAP. openLDAP is also authenticating all of our linux users. I would like to install Exchange2000 on a windows2000 machine so our windows users can do calendaring (sendmail already handles all of our email needs).
