Samba Folks, I have a major problem with Samba 2.2.8 randomly dropping network connections on our Solaris 2.8 SUN systems and could use some help. On a random basis Samba will drop network connections and not allow them to re-established until the PC system is rebooted. The disconnect error is typically a broken pipe error: 2003/02/21 09:42:03, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_socket_data(499)

Hi all. I'm having a strange intermittent problem with Samba 2.2.8a losing connectivity with our PDC and BDC. We are currently having a problem with our PDC restarting due to a bug check about 2-3 times a month. When this happens and the PDC is restarted or anytime it is restarted, we are not able to map shares on any of our 5 servers using samba 2.2.8a - the fix is to kill smbd and nmbd

Hi all, Is there any problem in authentication to samba in Windows 2003 AD.?

We have an environment where Linux workstations use Windows domain controllers to authenticate everything, from SMB access from Windows workstations, to graphical logins, and ssh. We've been seeing some intermitten failures with the authentication for SMB access. Here are some samples of the error messages we're getting.

We have a department using a DOS based application (written in C) within an MS window. By this I mean that the application is text based, and has no mouse capabilities at all. The application object code and its database all reside in a departmental share on our Samba instance on a Solaris box. We have about 30 people using the samba shares on this box at any time. The users have sent me an

Hi there. I'm having a problem letting a Samba server (MYSAMBA) authenticate users (using "security = domain" and a "password server = MYPDC") against a Windows 2000 PDC (MYPDC). The Windows 2000 machine seems (I'm not 100% sure about this) to be configured to restrict anonymous and it seems to me that this is where the problem lies but don't know what to do. I

Hi I have Win2k servers connecting to the samba server by mapping a windows user to unix user. We never had any problems with thsi connectivity but for past 2 weeks we have an erratic problem which causes the windows account to lock thus making samba unfunctional. When I get the windows account unlocked then samba starts functioning properly again. I do not have a scenario to reproduce the

I found many questions but no answers on the web. I described my needs in earlier post, but now switched from security = domain to security = server, and designated the AD domain server as the password server. It works as desired, i.e. I don't need smbpasswd any more, and if windows users change their passwords by ctrl-alt-del, they can later use the new password without coming to admins.

I'm having problems accessing Samba shares from my XP Pro machine. Samba 2.2.7 is installed on two Redhat 8.0 machines and configured using SWAT. I have user level security and encrypted passwords setup. I have a printer shared on both servers as well as home directories and one restricted access share. My printers are setup for guest access so all machines will always be able to print.

I'm trying to set up a samba box at home to centralize my family's storage into one place. Every time I try to connect to the box I get an incorrect user name or password dialog and it doesn't matter what I put in but it won't let me connect. In the log files every time I connect I see something like (repeated several times)... [2003/07/05 13:20:11, 0]

Hello everybody, I hope somebody can tell me what is going wrong and how it can be fixed. To be honest: I have walked through the test document, and smbd and nmbd seem to work quite properly. However this is the case: Recently one of our smb-servers was suffering from a very bad HD. So I took another and installed linux on it (Slackware 8.1) and took most of the config files (among which

Quick run down of my setup: NT 4.0 PDC, Samba RedHat 8.0 with samba 2.2.5-10 on it.(Also used RedHat 7.2 with 2.2.6 final as well) with the exact same results.

Greetings, I recently upgraded my print server from Samba 2.2.8a to 3.0.7 and all is working well except banner pages for the print jobs. I am getting them now an I don't want them.

Greetings. We are seeing an intermittent problem with Samba on our RedHat 8.0 file server (also seen with RedHat 7.3 prior to the upgrade to 8.0). Normally, a Windows XP machine can connect to the file server's shares and work on them. However, sometimes after being up for a while, connections from the XP machine to the file server no longer work. In particular, on the XP side, the following
