similar to: share persistence problem

I am not sure if your problem is similar to what we have just experienced. we are using samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on debian with winxp sp1 clients we are using roaming profiles first logon after reboot fails sortof Windows cannot find a server copy of roaming profile will logon with local profile funny thing we never saw any activity in hostname.log (seperate smb.log for each machine) smbstatus showed

I have a machine running redhat 6.2 and samba 2.0.6 that does a persistent mount to my Windows 2000 machine for the purposes of serving files via FTP. The samba connection occasionally times out it seems, I get the message smb_request: result -32, setting invalid smb_retry: new pid=20679, generation=12 and it generates a new connection I've got SO_KEEPALIVE active in the socket options in my

Dear all, ___Setup: - several wINDOWS 2000 workstations on SP4 (reg-patches applied, they worked on 2.x-stable) - Samba PDC (CVS 3.0.0rc2) (machine accounts added aswell as users in unix & samba) - OpenLDAP (2.1.12) <-- (Not really relevant since I tried without ldap too, so no info about that from this point) - Linux <HOSTNAME> 2.4.19 #1 Fri Jun 13 15:22:09 UTC 2003 i686

OK, what I want to do is access files on my Samba server remotely. Currently, I can use WinSCP, but this isn't ideal because it is more like an FTP client, where you have to download a file, edit it, upload it. I could set up a VPN (using open source software), but these can be kind of a headache to get working (I've done it before) and they don't necessarily support multiple

I am getting red crosses on the mapped drives of some win2k pro machines connecting to a samba pdc. I don't have them logging into the domain and the drives are disconnecting (it happens on win2k server too). There is a parameter for win2k server to autodisconnect the drive after 15 minutes which can be changed with: net config server /autodisconnect:TIME and there is a registry key in

Hello, I stepped through the archives of this list, but could not find a thread dealing with exactly this problem we are experiencing here. Server HP-UX 10.20 Samba 2.0.6 security = domain deadtime = 500 ... that should be enough The win2k clients map a drive and everything is working fine. after a period of inactivity (about half an hour) win2k somehow disconnects the mapped drive and marks

Hi, we run a RH9 samba 2.2.8 ext3 Server and have some problems with MacOS X Clients: They aren't allowed to write directories containing files to any of our shares. I connect to the sambaserver with smb://servername/sharename and a samba user. This user is allowed to create new folders and he can copy files into this folder. But if he tries to copy the local folder containing files to

I have installed Samba 2.2.8 on a Solaris 8 machine.

Hello I have a problem with setting up Samba as a AD member server.

Hi, I'm having an issue trying to make a Windows machine sambaserveroin a Samba domain. Samba is running with LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). When I try to join the domain, Windows says that the machine account does not exist. The machine account, however, is successfully created in the LDAP directory after the join fails. When I try to join again, Windows says that the account already exists.

I've trawled the Archives for assistance with this problem, but all the threads I've found petter out without a solution being posted. We have a Samba 2.2.1a server as a PDC for our network of NT4 and 98 machines. They all get along fine. We have roaming profiles established so people can move around. All no problem. We have a Quantum Snap 2000 server that has all our working

Hello, I have problems setting up a canon multifunction ir7200. When I print the windows test page, I have something like "smiley" "arrow" "arow" "smiley" "arrow" name_of_the_samba_spool "smileys" driver.dll etc,etc,etc, on a single line. Did somebody used such a multifunction with Samba ? Below is a (long) description of what I did. I

Hi there, I'm working on a new print server to replace one that's pretty long in the tooth. I'm using standard packages from Ubuntu Hardy Heron which appears to be Samba 3.0.28a. We use LDAP for the authentication backend. I seem to have that configured properly as I get a ldap_connect_system: succesful connection to the LDAP server in the log but every login fails with: FAILED

I recently upgraded Samba on my DC from a working 4.3 installation to 4.5.0. Once done, I followed the instructions here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Updating_Samba#Fixing_replPropertyMetaData_Attributes and ran: samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix --yes After that, I can no longer access the shares on this machine. I get the "Security ID structure is invalid" error above. In

This worked great last time I figured what do I have to loose... I can mount to myself mount -t //sambaserver/dir /test/samba this works fine...I even have username and passwords going through a win nt box. When I'm on a winnt4.x box I see sambaserver in the browse list but when I enter a "net view \\sambaserver" I get : No service is operating at the destination network

Hi Jeremy, Hi Steve, Hi Ronnie, thanks for your replies and the profound discussion. I think, it's best to demonstrate my problem case along an real world example: The following log of a console sesssion shows how I am doing the mounts on behalf Linux Kernel CIFS-FS Module on the client side against a Samba 4.5 file server (both running on Debian Stretch 9.8) via SMB/CIFS resp. SMB2 protocol:

Hi, We have the following shares listed in smb.conf users cannot access the samba share directly i.e. \\sambaserver\rixilr or \\sambaserver\bridges error messages '/ibe/dusty/RIXILE Share/Bridges' does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [bridges] Error was Permission denied Aug 21 10:09:12 dish sambaserver[27859]: [2015/08/21 10:09:12.964101, 0]

Hi Jeremy, No, I don't mean "deadtime". I mean auto disconnect. Specifically, the command "net config server /autodisconnect:-1" was run on each client machine. If deadtime is a server configuration item perhaps you could point me in the direction of some documentation where that is covered. The documentation for smb.conf is, to put it very mildly, incomplete.
