Hi there, I've got two questions, and I'll list them in order of importance. (1) Is there a way, or is there any research/development going into unearthing a way, to mount a samba filesystem like any other filesystem under UNIX? And (2), does anyone know of a good X filemanager? What I would really like to do is be able to mount a Samba directory or resource and treat it like any

Can someone point me to an FAQ, or tell me how to access shared PC drives from Solaris 8? I've heard of the smbclient thing - does this allow seamless access - ie can I run this, then say cd /sharedpc/c/somefolder? Thanks for any help Paul

Is there anything for xwindows that will let you browse the network like with microsofts neighborhood network? Rob Kobiske

Hi, I don't know how many people on this list use samba with freebsd , but I have a question. I have samba set up and can connect to my other win conputers using smbclient but I am told that freebsd does not have smbmount. i need to mount my win hard drives in order to back them up. Is this possible some way with samba under freebsd. Thanks Rick -- Rick Knebel rknebel@uplink.net

Hey, so i finally got it working thanks to your list (found the right place for EnablePlainTextPassword here, the existing 3-4 matches in the default registry don't seem to do a thing). It was all brilliant. I got connected to all my 4 samba servers. I was happy... 'til the next boot (you know, during installation of system, boots happen). Now it connects to 3 sambas (1 on FreeBSD, 1 on

How can I browse Windows from Unix? I'm using FreeBSD 4.7, Samba, and KDE3. I'd like to be able to browse also from command line. I have not found instructions on use of smbclient-win32 and do not want to use sharity. smbclien-win32 comes with and exe file and cygwin dll's - but what are you supposed to do with them, copy the dll's to system or system32 foler and just run the

hello list, i am running Samba on FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE. i am able to mount network folders using sharity-light from one of my other freebsd boxes 'piper' on the network with the command: shlight //cessna/videos /usr/home/iain/vidoes when logged in as the user 'iain'. there is a corresponding user on the Samba server 'cessna'. i created a user 'sasha' on

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Let me start by saying that this may not be, strictly speaking, a Samba question... but it very nearly is so I'm hoping you can offer some help. I have a couple of Solaris 10 machines with the Oracle-supplied Samba on them. I'm looking to copy logs from BIND to an archival storage location. Solaris 10 does not support SMBFS so far as

Let me start by saying I have been using Samba for several years now to support "mission critical" data transfer and have found it to be a truly awesome package. I now have a need to also share disk space from NT to Unix. One package I have found to do this is Sharity, does anyone have any experience with it? How does it compare to Samba for reliability? Are there any other free or

I'm looking for a version of smbmount for FreeBSD or something similar. I was told that with FreeBSD i was to use mount. But i have no idea what file type and what the options are. This isn't in any documentation i could find on samba.org. If someone could help me? Share Path : \\192.168.24.253\LogFiles$ Mount Path : /var/ServerLogs UserName: LogKing Password: goLgniK

Hi There Do anyone know about the posibility to mount an NT share into SunOS (SunOS and Solaris 2.x) operating system. I know there is a solution for Linux(smbmount, smbunmount), but this does not work on SunOS because smbfs is not supported. Is there a known port of the software on SunOS...? I have looked into using a piece of software called rumba(software to mount NT shares via smb to nfs)

I believe I know the answer, but I'd like to be certain, since I keep seeing references to things like smbmount and smbfs... Is it possible to mount an NT (4.0sp3) share onto a Solaris 2.6/Sparc? I just grabbed Samba 2.0.6. I suspect not (I don't see any smbmount or smbfs in my samba/bin directory). Will this ever be a possibility? If so, when? And, are there any other options for

I'm new to SAMBA and am somewhat confused. So I'll get right to the point. Situation: I am running both UNIX (Solaris 9) and Windows 2000. I have a system running on Windows will be creating some large files. These files need to be input to a system running on the UNIX (Solaris) box. Solution? I would like to be able to have the system on the UNIX box be able to read the files on Windows

Hi, I'm having trouble connecting to an Appleshare IP 6.2 Mac that is doing SMB file sharing from my RedHat Linux 7.2 box. I've looked and looked and looked at many things and many SMB clients. I've tried smbclient, smbmount, Sharity, and even just doing a mount -t smbfs. All of them come back with something of this form: Protocol Negotiation Failed SMB connection failed. I

One of our daily jobs needs to process a lot of files on a solaris server and dump the files onto a windows server. We currently use sharity to accomplish this. However, the performance becomes worse when the files get larger. We want to find another approach to do this. The reason we didnt use samba was that very few users have unix accounts and they need to have write permission to the

Hi, Does anyone know if there has been any more progress on the problem of browsing 'complex dfs roots' see http://lists.samba.org/archive/smb-clients/2006-February/000622.html Basically it occurs whenever you have a Microsoft Distributed File System Tree where the links are to subfolders of the destination share. Microsoft clients have no trouble browsing such trees. The Samba HOWTO

Has anyone out there had success with smbmount smbumount and solaris 7? If so, please let me know how you installed it; ideally, I'd like to add it using pkgadd. So far I only have smbclient working. Thanks, Kevin
