We have a samba server acting as a PDC for approx 100 Windows 2000 workstations, and it has been doing so very well for the last year. We just purchased some XP Pro machines, and using the registry edit that's listed in the docs, we were able to get them on to the domain. The issue is that the very first time they try to view any drives mapped to the Samba server, it hangs for a good 30-40

Hi during Startup of SuSE-Linux 7.2 Prof. the PC is sometimes ( 1 of 10 times) stopping by start smbd. Reset knop the help only. I have this problem with the samba version in SuSE package and version 2.2.5 too. In the file ../rc3.d/S12smb I added 2 lines to see if nmbd and smbd are startet. I see nmbd is starting always, the text "SAMBA smbd gestartet" is in case of fault not printing.

How are you verifying? Have you tried using top and looking for smbd and nmbd? Swat may be giving you erroneous info if that is what you are using to verify.

hi ke, **************************************************** Since you've compiled with default options, your smb.conf is located in /usr/local/lib/smb.conf . You should copy your working smb.conf for version 2.2.7 (/etc/samba/smb.conf) to /usr/local/lib. You should run ./testparm as well. *********************************** That's just what i did and the Result is the same! Is there a

Hello there! After much trial and error, scouring the net and books for samba setups/faqs/resources, etc - I seem to have Samba setup with winbind more or less correctly - There seems to be a couple bugs though. The goal is to have a windows workstation-like Linux box to access the NT 4.0 domain. Logging into the Linux box (physically) with domain user accounts, accessing domain printers,

Hello all, I am running Dovecot v1alpha4 on Fedora 4 from the command line (as opposed to deamon). Is there a recommended way to shut it down gracefully? Or do I just use killall -9 dovecot? I'm not using the included version, so I can't do SERVICE DOVECOT STOP. Thanks, Cliff

Hello, I am trying to make a data frame from many elements after running a function which creates many elements, some of which may not end up being real elements due to errors or missing data. For example, I have the following three elements p1s, p2s, and p3s. p9s did not generate the same data as there was an error in the function for some reason. I currently have to delete p9s from the

Greetings' i have installed a redhat 6.2 on my machine. I have also installed Samba 2.0.6 on it and seems working fine for almost a year. But one of my problem is "Disappearing Mounts".

Hello, i am planning to use samba in my company, first on a test system and later on operational. I have a question about reloading the configuration file. When i do some changes in the configuration file about mappings etc for new users, new folders on request etc and i have to reload the configuration, is that a problem for the connected users ? Will they lose their connection while they are

Greetings, I realize many people will never use winbindd, and thus it will likely not get included in /etc/init.d/samba (on my Debian system; your file may vary) by default, so another solution seems in order. It's not as important to be able to start and stop winbindd now that it's getting more robust, but I'd still like something. How are y'all out there in Samba land

On my RH9 server, I upgraded samba the original samba version to the newest 3.0.21c-1 version using the binary RPM's available from the website.

Hi. I'm getting messages to the effect: Inetd: /usr/local/samba/lib/nmbd: Hangup Last messages repeat 319 times I start samba from inetd. Should I be starting it as a daemon or starting it in init.d?
