I recently downloaded and installed binary versions of Samba 2.0.7 on two Sun Microsystems platforms running Solaris 7. One of the machines is an Enterprise 5000 and the other is an Ultra 10. I set up both servers for USER lever security and set all shares to be browseable. Both were set to be in workgroup SUN. When first installed, both machines appeared in workgroup Sun under Entire Network on

What about this: How can I set a parameter (valid user) in the shared folder (smb.conf) in order to it can authenticate the users in the PDC? because I can only do this with the Linux users. Thanks in advance Leonardo

Hello, I am trying to get the archive bit to behave under Samba 2.2.2 on a Linux box (Slackware 8.0) serving NT and Win2K clients. I have "map archive = yes" and "dos filemode = yes". If I have "force create mode = 0100", creating new files sets the archive bit (good) and "attrib +a filename" will turn on the archive bit if it was off (good) but

Hi all Got a couple of errors in the logs wondering what they mean??? Google does not come up with too much on these NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_FILE, NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION, NT_STATUS_INVALID_LEVEL and NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND. Four clips illustrating the above are below... I have am wondering how I sort this out. I am particularly worried about the NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_FILE. All the

Hello Everyone, I have a few users that are complaining about the "slowness" of copying files to and saving files directly to the Samba server. From my own recollections, the speed is rather identical to the speed we experienced on our old Windows NT 4.0 fileserver. One thing that could be the impetus of this issue is that Samba is serving up files, for opening and copying from the

Hi, I wanna Samba to work as a PDC.... Many people told me that the administration is a pain in the ass.... If I use LDAP as a user repository should I improve the administration???

We replaced our Win2k PDC with a Samba PDC and have all Windows clients are connecting. But we are having difficulty logging on with the Linux and Unix servers to this domain. Is there something that must be done differently for them to connect?

Hello Johan, I'm having the same problems with DFS and WinXP clients since I upgraded to 2.2.8. I tried to clear the cache on the client side with dfsutil.exe that comes with the Win2000 SP2 but to no avail. Can anyone else confirm this problem? It's also strange that on the WinXP clients the version of the samba server is still registered as a previous version (2.2.6 or 2.2.7).

Hello, today i deleted the user "nobody" (entry "nobody:x:99:99:Nobody:/:/sbin/nologin" in /etc/passwd) on my samba-server. As result, no user could log in to domain anymore. Does anybody know, what the user "nobody" plays for a role in samba? Gerd M?ller, St. Petersburg -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/

Situation -- Samba 2.2.5, RedHat Linux 8.0 Domain -- W2K AD After boot, I can go into Network Neighborhood, and I can see the name of the computer. When I double click on it it's unaccessible. Also, I can't see the network from the Linux box, I can ping it all, but I can't see it. Where is the "network neighborhood" in Linux? Also, the big question... I need, (upon

Hi, I wounder if someone else had this same problem that I have, and solved it. So here it goes... I have 15 WinXP Pro workstations, on a Domain controlled by a Samba 2.2.8.

Hi, I would like to plot time against rainfall data (data is at the end) using xyplot. The basic code looks like this: xyplot(rainfall~time, type="a") When I do this, the graph looks ok except that the x-axis has too many values. I would just like to display the years and not the months on the x-axis. I've been fiddling around with 'scales', and read previous posts about

I found this in the archives: http://samba.cadcamlab.org/lists/samba/Feb2002/00318.html It pertains pretty directly to the problem I'm seeing. I first started having it with my 2.7 installed version so I upgraded to 2.8. I'm still having the same problem. Basically, I have a group of web developers that use the linux/samba server for editing files for the site. All the files are

Hi Tom, meanwhile I'm using Samba 2.2.8a, and I don't have a real solution for the problem. I managed to reduce the occurance of the error by using "security = domain" and "password server = *". The problem occures only on about 6% of all clients (log level 1, max log size 300kB). So I decided to ignore these errors. If a user complains about that (PW query pops up,

Hello Everyone, I have a slight issue with configuring a PDF printer on my Samba servers. I have input the following into my smb.conf file and it does create the printer as well as work to create PDF files, except that it only functions when "printing" to that printer via Excel 2002. If I attempt it with anything else, even the Windows Test print, it fails. Now, in the Windows

Hi Robert and List, As you told me I upgrated to Samba 2.2.5 because I'm doing the test with a machine which has RedHat 8.0 and this RedHat version comes with it.... Anyway..... So I made the procedure step by step but I haven't found how to make my Windows 2000 users (PDC) can access the Linux shared folder and this is what I've done: My smb.conf looks like this: [global]
