Hi all, My old and stable backup script don't work anymore. It's based on smbclient's tar command using crX parameters for creating archive, excluding files based on basic regular expressions. The box is running Fedora core 2, fully updated: kernel-2.6.8-1.521 samba-common-3.0.7-2.FC2 samba-client-3.0.7-2.FC2 The error is easily reproducible: smbclient //ntpdc/share -A credfile \ -c

Hello everyone, Thank you nouveau developers as it seems you may almost of a solution to my lack of good graphics options for my aging sun system. I saw here before back in early December of 2011 a most of someone saying that it seemed that the nouveau drivers almost worked with him and is Sun Ultra 10. I am someone who is very fond of my Sun systems, I have two "SunBlade 100"s,

I have a test cluster running HA-NFS that shares both ufs and zfs based file systems. However, the behavior that I am seeing is a little perplexing. The Setup: I have Sun Cluster 3.2 on a pair of SunBlade 1000''s connecting to two T3B partner groups through a QLogic switch. All four bricks of the T3B are configured as RAID-5 with a hot spare. One brick from each pair is mirrored with VxVM

when an nt 4.0 workstation or backup domain controller is joined to a domain, the trust account password is set to a well-known initial value. if you are concerned about internal network security, this is not really an acceptable risk: any captured network traffic can be decoded simply from knowing the name of the workstation, which is contained in the network traffic itself. the initial value

Hi folks, Have there been any changes to the way ntpd behaves in the past few updates? Reason I ask, whenever I run the ntpq or ntpdc, I immediately get a response of Name or service not known. I know things used to work sometime back, and never saw this kind of stuff. Nothing has changed in the /etc/ntp.conf file, nor has anything changed in the /etc/ntp/ntpservers files. T

hi there after successfully joining an NT domain i tried net rpc vampire -S ntpdc and get: Fetching DOMAIN database SAM_DELTA_DOMAIN_INFO not handled net: decode.c:634: ber_scanf: Assertation `((ber)->ber_opts.lbo_valid==0x2)` failed. Aborted samba compiled perfectly on my suse 8.2 box with rc1 and beta1 i had no problems with net rpc vampire so what's wrong? thx --

I need a little better information regarding the mapping of groups between an NT PDC and a SAMBA PDC, which trust each other. On the NT machine is a group called "ntgreen." On the Linux box (running RH9 with Samba 3.0), there is a group called "lxgreen". I've done a: net groupmap add ntgroup=ntgreen unixgroup=lxgreen. The mapping shows up in a net groupmap list.

I've had problems with nscd crashing every few days on my CentOS 4 mail server for a while now. The problems started maybe around CentOS 4.2, although I don't remember for sure. My debugging efforts let me to disable nscd's persistent cache, and that seemed to work for a while, but since upgrading to CentOS 4.4, the crashes have started again. When nscd crashes, the rest of the

I have upgraded my openssh version from 2.2.0.p1 to 3.0.2p1. 3.0.2 was compile on a sunblade 100 running Solaris 8. Is it possible for my to use my existing DSA key? Thanks, David Higdon UNIX System Administrator (503) 450-4800 (Office) (503) 701-5558 (Cell Phone) higdon.david at cnf.com

I have compiled and installed NUT-2.2.1 on Solaris 10 on my Sunblade 2000 and it seems to work very well, except that the behaviour of 'wall', which upsmon uses to report significant events, may differ on Solaris from other systems. On Sol10, wall writes the message *only* on the console, unless the "-a" switch is used. On a standard JDS (GNOME) system, there isn't normally a

I am a newbie to both UNIX and SAMBA and I would like to install Samba 2.2.2 on a Sunblade 100 workstation running Solaris 8 to be utilized as a file and print server via TCP/IP with a small network of machines running Windows 98SE and Windows 2000 server. Could anyone suggest documents or references I might consult in order to obtain detailed step by step instructions for successfully installing

Does anyone know if there is a fix for nscd segfaulting after a short period of time. Googling for it came up with one result that suggested deleting the files in /var/db/nscd , but that didn't help. Another result was about run away processes which is not the problem I'm having. They are x86_64 boxes. output from /var/log/messages Oct 9 12:56:38 lyra kernel: nscd[11660]: segfault at

Hi, I'm running kernel 2.6.8-15, lvm2 v2.01.04-5 and acl v2.2.23-1 on a Sunblade 100 (sparc). In a few months we have experienced for several times that an ext3 filesystem is remounted as read-only (this is due to the option "errors=remount-ro" in /etc/fstab). Sometimes there is no error in log files but sometimes we see: kernel: init_special_inode: bogus i_mode (3016) kernel:

Has anyone had problems accessing random websites since going up to 6.4? Since about the day after I got partly upgraded, if I try to access nytimes.com, or orbitz.com, I get server not found. With a lot of work, I, my manager, and the other admin, found that setting options edns0 in /etc/resolv.conf fixed it - I suspect that the network folks updated their internal nameservers (which are M$)

Hi all, i compiled Samba 2.2.5 with gcc on a Sunblade with Solaris 2.8. Last month i compiled Samba 2.2.4 on the same machine without problems. The following options i used: ./configure --with-winbind --with-pam --with-quotas I got the following warnings: Linking bin/wbinfo Compiling nsswitch/winbindd.c Compiling nsswitch/winbindd_user.c Compiling nsswitch/winbindd_group.c Compiling

Dear samba folks, I have a special question regarding the simultaneous operation of nscd and winbindd on the same host: We are running in a Samba file server setup where the nsswitch.conf looks like this: passwd: files ldap group: files ldap shadow: files ldap hosts: files dns wins networks: files protocols: db files services: db files

Again, another confusing issue in two how-to's I'm trying to resolve. In the SBE (samba-3 by example) Pg 161 in the PDF states. (It's actually page 200 of the PDF, but 161 of the numbered document pages.) "The name service caching daemon (nscd) is a primary cause of difficulties with name resolution, particularly where winbind is used." But the Authconfig in the IDEALX
