I have multiple samba servers. smb1 is my master, smb2 is a slave. My master has this: name resolve order=wins hosts bcast # wins server=127.0.0.1 wins support=yes The Slave has this: name resolve order=wins hosts bcast # wins server=<IP OF Master> wins support=no After 24 hours the Master forgets who the slave is. If I restart the slave he notifies the master who

Recently a production "stable" samba server started producing this: samba-log.cpr8r: oplock_break failed for file Share1/Files/Financial/Comms.xls (dev = b, inode = 151073815, file_id = 31). samba-log.cpr8r: oplock_break failed for file Share1/Files/Financial/Futures.xls (dev = b, inode = 411546895, file_id = 31). samba-log.cpr8r: oplock_break failed for file

I have been searching for info on this and haven't found an authoritative answer. From what I have read, oplocks are good because they increase connection speeds, but they are bad because they don't really work, but they actually do work, but they only work in some cases, etc etc. so, here's my problem and my question together: I get tons of these messages every day (over a thousand a

Hi folks I have a Centos 5.3. I'm wondering how can I make this linux box to act as a time server for my small network. I just need this Centos PC act as a time reference for the other PCs so they can keep the time exact the same as the Centos server. Don;t need to syncronize the server with tyhe internet, just keep my local network with the same time in all the PC. Thanks in advance David

I ran out of gas by looking through google also... :-( With Best Regards YS

I am wondering if anyone has ever answered the question of group policy operability under Windows 9x. That is, I am _not_ looking for a work-around but the real thing--one config.pol file to service several groups. I have done my homework, hopefully well, but found nothing. To prove this, I will quickly summarize my findings below. Either I have found: 1. a list of unresolved (mostly

I'm trying to understand the R internals a bit better and reading over the documentation. I see that there is a bit related to whether an object is S4 (S4_OBJECT_MASK), and also the object type S4SXP (25). The documentation makes clear that these two things aren't the same. But in practice, will the S4-bit and object type ever disagree for S4 objects? I know that one can set the bit

Hello everyone. Well, I have a couple of questions regarding roaming profiles. I have been assigned the task of setting up a Samba PDC on our network. Lately, I have been doing a lot of research and reading to find out the best way I setup my system. I have a couple of questions I wanted to ask here, in hopes of getting some feedback. First, some details: The server will be Red Hat 8.0 with

Hi everyone, Currently i'm trying to understand the bagged clustering algorithm, bclust {e1071}. When I run the given example in the help file (as below) data(iris) bc1 <- bclust(iris[,1:4], 3, base.centers=5) plot(bc1) and plot the bclust object, 2 graphs are produced. The first is a dendrogram, but what is the second plot? The axes are not labelled and what do the two

hi, I need a hand setting up cross subnet browsing. Does anyone have some good news group postings, or a HOWTO? I have 2 samba servers, and 2 subnets. Each servers sits on it's own domain/workgroup. I think this should be much simpler than it is, and perhaps I am just missing one or two settings. Of the 2 servers: A, B I would like 'A' to do any serving or hold any

I have posted this question twice without any response. We are running samba on an OpenUnix 8 machine, then we are mapping the samba share on a Windows 2000 machine. If we run our process from the Windows command line..(copying files to the share) everything runs great. The problem is if someone telnets to the Windows 2000 machine and runs the same process they get "The specific network

I am experimenting with rSymPy, and it seems to work nice. However, I dislike the need to wrap all sympy expressions within quotes, it leads to ugly calls like library(rSymPy) Var("x,y,z") sympy("(x+y)**2") and so on. Inspired by the function cq from mvbutiles package: library(mvbutils) > cq function (...) { as.character(sapply(as.list(match.call(expand.dots =

Hi, today I tried to migrate an old NT4 PDC to Samba 3 as described in http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/NT4Migration.html but with the Samba databases on LDAP: Whenever I tried that net rpc vampire -S NT4PDC -U administrator%passwd I received error messages that the users cannot be created. When I set debugging to level 2, it told me about Found bogus group

Hi; Before I tell a customer that this would require custom development I figured I would ask here. Does Asterisk support pager notification of new voicemails out of the box? Or do I need an AGI script to do that? Also, if I want to call a number from an automated program in Asterisk and get the DTMF tones entered by the user on the other side, is there an easy way to do this? Best

Hi, Can someone help me get "net rpc vampire" in one of its forms working. The objective is to migrate from an NT4 PDC to a SAMBA 3.0 PDC using LDAP as a back end. I am trying to migrate the user and machine accounts across in a lab environment, separate from the main network (I have replicated the PDC to do this). I have samba-3.0.20b built from the samba team source RPM on Fedora
