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. ------------------------ "A.A" <1alp@gmx.de> wrote: ------------------------ there is some new Error:connections.tdb not initialized. > >

hi, in the meantime i uninstalled and reinstalled samba again. it' s strage because i get two directories , Samba and samba-2.2..8a !! Newertheless i did as you wrote but there is still the old Samba ther! i Killed both Daemons and do : balalayka:/etc/samba # ps fax | grep nmbd balalayka:/etc/samba # ps fax | grep nmbd balalayka:/etc/samba # cd /usr/local/samba/bin/

you'll need to type './smbd -D' instead of 'smbd -D' if you're in the /usr/local/samba directory (same for nmbd -D and smbstatus). BTW, you need to type 'ps fax | grep smbd' and then 'kill -9 <process ID>', where <process ID> is listed in the 'ps fax | grep smbd' command. Same for nmbd. Also, make sure the smbd and nmbd daemons are not

Hi, Does anybody know where I can get an untouched smb.conf file? When I used samba-swat, it rewrote smb.conf and deleted out the comments that was in the original file that came with samba.

1.) Edited my SMB.conf inside the /etc/samba directory - I changed the = default workgroup name to match that of my Windows 2000 SP2 machine. I also edited the Public share to point to /home/markdog/apps = directory with open permissions for viewing. 2.) Manually started the SMBD and NMBD daemons- these are the copied = lines from a terminal prompt: [root@localhost /root]# smbd -D smbd -D

Dear list, I have just upgraded our main Samba server from version 2.2.8a to 3.0.6. It seems to be working fine except for 2 things: 1. when I use smbstatus(or swat/status) only some of the connections are listed and then smbstatus hangs forever(swat comes back after a while, but only with some of the connections) Have any of you experienced something similar ? How can I debug

I've gotten smb-wall to work with Samba v3. If there's a better way, please let me know. If not, what's the chances this could be included in a future release? #!/usr/bin/perl # #@(#) smb-wall.pl Description: #@(#) A perl script which allows you to announce whatever you choose to #@(#) every PC client currently connected to a Samba Server... #@(#) ...using "smbclient -M"

I'm running the latest samba release (2.2.8a), and everything seems to be running fine. Except for something that does not look quite right. Connections to the IPC$ share are being left behind by samba once the user has logged off. And what's even more troubling is that the pid associated with the lingering IPC$ connection is picked up by the next smbd process, and then you have one pid

I am writing this letter and I hope that I'll have answers about the generation of smb.conf by the way of smb.conf.master with testparm command. Like is described on page 5 of Samba3-HOWTO.pdf. The situation is: - The manual of smb.conf says that the default value of the parameter ?name resolve order? is ?lmhosts host wins bcast?, but when I type the command like: # testparm -s

Hi everybody, i use following software: Linux version 2.4.7-10 (bhcompile@stripples.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)) #1 Thu Sep 6 17:27:27 EDT 2001 # smbd -V Version 2.2.1a Imagine a user (user x) opened a file stored on the samba server like "blah.xls" (excel 2k) so the file is locked by the smbd.

I use a lot of "force user" and "force group" directives on various shares. With smbstatus of Samba 2 I could always verify with a glance what uid and gid a particular service is being accessed as, with Samba 3 you can't. I'd REALLY like to see that come back to smbstatus. Here's a real world example of my complaint... Samba 2 smbstatus output... Samba version

Hi - I am using Samba 2.2.8a - wondering how to use an NT group as opposed to a UNIX group to restrict access to a share. Is this possible? I didn't see anything in smb.conf.example nor on the mailing list archive. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Greg
