Hi list, After reading a lot in the mailing list and the official Samba 3 howto, i am still unable to give domain admin rights to a user, so that he gets admin rights on all workstations in the domain. Here is what i have: - Samba 3.08 PDC, config: [global] workgroup = ANT netbios name = ANTSRV netbios aliases = RUN KITS HOMES LIB PRINTERS server string = ANT Samba

Hi list, # net join asks for the root password (seems to be new). This is not a problem, but when i do: # ssh root@remote_host net join mydomain the root password is echoed on the terminal. Is this expected behaviour? (I hope not).

Hi all, I run a 3.0.8 Samba PDC with WIN XP SP2 clients. I configured printing (lprng) with drivers uploaded to the server for easy printer installation on the clients. This works like a charm: I can drag'n drop printers from the server's printer share or install them with the local "Add printer" wizzard. I do this as a domain admin on the client and it works fine. BUT: If

Hi list, I have a strange permission problem with secrets.tdb on an nfs mounted filesystem. A strace of smbd shows the following lines: ######################################################################## open("/etc/samba/private/secrets.tdb", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = 4 fcntl64(4, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=1}, 0xbffff010) = -1 EACCES

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello! I'm running into an issue where users log into their Win2k/NT4.0 workstations, download their profiles off of our Samba 2.2.5 server, map home, miscellaneous shares, and printers on it, and then randomly during their session they cannot open these remote devices. They receive an "Access Denied" message when trying to do anything

Hi all We are using some old SUN Monitors which won't display anything until the OS is up and running, supplying the correct sync. To let users know, when to select from the (unvisible, but known) menu, i would like to output a beep when pxelinux is waiting for input. Googling shows that this question has been raised several times and the proposed solution was to insert a CTRL/G in the

Today, in only a few hours, the samba log file has been filled (up to 10G!) with this message; [2006/06/15 16:48:24, 2] smbd/uid.c:change_to_user(247) change_to_user: Invalid vuid used 100 in accessing share disco5. Our current samba version is samba-3.0.21c, and it has been running without any problem for a month. Any ideas about what happened? Thanks in advance. Emilio C.

This is my first time posting on this list, so please excuse me if this is the wrong list to post on (if it is please just let me know). I've recently upgraded my old Redhat 8.0 box to Redhat Fedora Core 8 which comes with Samba 3.x while my old Redhat 8.0 box had Samba 2.x. On my old box I had SMB map a drive from an older OpenVMS server using Pathworks. I performed this by simply doing:

Is there a limit to the number of files that can be seen through SAMBA Shares. We currently have approximately 120,000 files (and growing) under business related shares under our current Pathworks environment. With being in the process of transferring over to SAMBA we need to ensure that all the files are viewable. It may be advisable to split these shares across several disks on our UNIX

net use lpt1: \\node\prt On a slow VMS Box with pathworks this cmd runs in 1 sec. On a Dual 1G Linux Box with 2.2.7 samba it takes about 7-8 seconds on a 350 PC. I am using lprng and loading the printers from the printcap file. Does anyone have any idea's on how to speed this up? I tried it on several samba servers and it works the same on all of them. I'm not trynig anything fancy

We have a LAN network consisting mostly of Win95 machines, with a couple of NT boxes and 3 Linux-based Samba servers. Throw in a VAX running Pathworks and a partridge in a pear tree. Anyway, it seems that since Monday all three of the Samba boxes have dissapeared from the browse lists (from the POV of the Windows users). Typing in \\server only gives a "Network name not found error."

Hallo, das Subject sagt schon fast alles. Zum besseren Verst?ndnis der Hintergrund. nachdem ich vor vielen jahren Pathworks-Server durch ein OS/2-Serversystem abgel?st habe,haben wir es auch noch geschafft, die n?chste Evolutionsstufe bis jetzt herauszuziehen. Wir nutzen File- und Printservices. Das ist alles. Die Anzahl der User tendiert gegen 150. Wir sind an zwei Standorten, aber ?ber VPN

Hello all, Been using Samba for a looooonnnng time, and with great success I might add. This is the first time in EVER that I've needed to ask ANYTHING regarding it, so easy is it to config and admin. Kudos to the Aussie that wrote it. Even if he initially thought it was Pathworks... 8-) ANYWAY... I've never really been able to use Samba as a print server. For some reason, when

Hello All, I recently downloaded, compiled, and installed vs 2.0.6 of samba on a Digital Unix 4.0E system. I set up security to point to our single NT domain controller, and set up a user map for those users who don't have identical Unix and NT Domain usernames. I can access all of the shares correctly from an NT client. On Win9x, I can map the shares and see the first level directory,

Hi All, Can somebody help me set this up. I'm trying to set up a public folder on my SAMBA server which will let my users create their own folders to store their files. And not let everyone delete them. Following are the problems I'm having: 1) If I set the directory rights to 755 on /exports and share the /exports/public directory with ~/public set to 755 Users can't create

Hi, I am looking for a list of theses special magic numbers that a samba server (or a windows box) registers with at a wins server. I already know of <00> as a ordinary name, <1b> as a domain. But what's the rest? Is there a list anywhere? Perhaps somewhere in the docs? I have searched them but haven't found anything yet. Thanks, Christopher --

I'm getting the following errors in my error logs: ERROR! vuid 100 did not map to a valid vuser struct! At the time this error was being created I was trying to add a domain user as a local admin. I was trying to get the browse list of domain users up, but being denied. Cheers Jeff -- Jeff Gardiner [ gardiner@nospam.imaging.robarts.ca ] System Administrator - Imaging Research
