I am trying to integrate a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 server into our Windows 2003 domain. I was able to successfully join it to our domain, but the WBINFO commands keep failing when I start SMB and WINBIND. I looked at the log files and found this interesting entry in the /var/log/samba/winbindd.log file: [2006/11/29 21:49:11, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(864) winbindd version 3.0.10-1.4E.9

I am a Mac user and am only using Samba to the extent that it is installed with Mac OS X. I am simply trying to share files between a Windows PC and my Mac laptop. I'm hoping that the error message below concerning the secrets.tdb file may be meaningful to someone on this list. I haven't had any luck yet with a similar post on Apple's forum. Before I upgraded to Leopard, I

Dear samba-ers, I have installed SWAT so that my samba users can change their passwords easily and remotely as they do not have login access to the samba server. Broadly speaking my problem is that when registered as a user, it seems that swat cannot access the file /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb Version info: Linux platform: CentOS 6.5 Linux Kernel: 2.6.32-431 Samba: 3.6.9-167.el6_5

We have noticed that if a username, that ends in a "\" or a "/", tries to login, then the workspace becomes the user name ( up to the "/" or "\" ) and then username is empty, allowing a bogus user to authenticate and calls cli_session_setup_guest() to log in anonymously. This is done in cli_session_setup(): /* allow for workgroups as part of

Hi - I am trying to compile and install 2.2.8 to /opt/samba, but I keep getting the following errors after I 'make install' and try to start smbd using '/opt/samba/sbin/smbd -d 2 -D -s /opt/samba/lib/smb.conf': Unable to open new log file /usr/local/samba/var/log.smbd: No such file or directory [2003/03/25 10:21:56, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(348) Unable to open new log file

Hi, I have installed the public domain version of samba version 2.2.8a on aix 5.2 and I receive the following error message while attempting to start the samba server.

I seem to have some issues coming to terms with the new smbprint configuration. Not that it is all that new, but I have worked on a ton of AIX Samba systems that are runing 1.9.x and the smbprint worked great in all aspects. The box's couldn't be upgraded (or so said the company that did application builds related to Samba). The printers were and are hosted from windows95 workstations

Hi, Having reset-up a print server from installation disks today, I did something stupid and blindly copied the contents of /etc/samba from the previous installation into the new installation. Now smbd refuses to start (nmbd starts OK). I am currently using a blank smb.conf file and the smb.conf file from the old installation. testparm doesn't report any errors in the smb.conf from the old

Previously I have a working print server using samba with below setting: [global] printcap name = cups printing = cups security = share [printers] browseable = yes printable = yes public = yes create mode = 0700 guest only = yes use client driver = yes guest account = smbprint path = /home/smbprint I could print both from linux and windows XP. But recently (Samba 3.0.22),

I am trying to allow printing from my linux box to my win98 box, to which my epson stylus printer is attached. It's just not happening...something tells me I'm flirting with a world of pain. I *can* print a file by going: smbclient //rory/EPSON translate print /etc/group but I cannot print from applications, nor can i use smbprint. I tried going: cat /etc/passwd | sh -x smbprint

Hi, Maybe someone can help me. I am running FreeBSD 3.2 with Samba 2.0.4b and NT Server 4.0 with SP3 and I added the BSD machine to its server list. My printer is setup on my NT for print sharing. Well if I connect to the share name of the printer via smbclient ( ./smbclient \\\\ESAU\\EPSON -U login%password) I am able to successfully access it and even print. However, when I use the

While trying to configure my *nix box to print to windows, I discovered my samba build does not have the smbprint utility. I saw no option in the configure/make script to build with the smprint utility. Is there an option that will build this tool? Thanks!

Dear Samba Team, the smbprint script as provided with Suse7.2 for Samba Version 2.2.0 did not work. The problem was that the file to be printed was not transfered via stdin after the print - command. I changed the smbprint script to pass the commands via the -c option. My changes and comments are marked with MR27092001MR in the smbprint attached. I did not find this in the lists, so I hope this

I try to print too using the sambalp command, by another name the bulit-in Printer manager. The syntax of

I've connected a BSD machine to a WinME machine in the office to begin experimenting with samba. I've been messing about with it but I can't get a print of samba files to the WinME printer. My /var/spool/lpd/canon directory contains .config, .seq, status and lock files and a whole bunch of files that aren't getting printed to the remote printer. my .config file has: server=ICE1
