If anyone has time to look at this problem I would appreciate it. I think I am looking for a way to increase the "timeout" in samba (in the smb.conf file) for reporting a "down" link or "can't read xyz file".

I had a working Samba installation on my home network. Then I replaced one printer with another. The new printer is successfully installed on my RedHat 9.0 system on /dev/lp0. It is an Epson C82. From the RedHat system all is well. However, I am unable to print to this printer via Windows XP boxes on my network. Samba is working to the extent that Windows can find these printers via

Is there a trash can, or a way to add one, so that if a user deletes a file off the share it just goes away until a nightly purge is done? Thanks, Robert

I have a Samba PDC server running on Fedora Core. I also have 3 samba print servers and 1 samba file server setup on RedHat 9 machines. How do I make my RedHat file and print servers to get user information from the PDC so I don't have to set up users on every single server? I appreciate your help!

Also if any has been successfull setting up SAMBA LDAP, can you please send me information on how to accomplish this. Thank you

Hi. I'm entering in Samba's world and I need help with this. An Nt4.0 client was upgraded to XP PRO, and Win does not connect to domain (before upgrade worded fine), windows registry was modificated as samba howto explains. This is my smb.conf file of samba v. 2.0.7. Thanks, thanks, thanks. Dr Jekyll [global] ############## workgroup = X security = user status = yes

Fellow Samba-shakers, I've run into an odd problem, and I'm seeking the advice of anyone who has implemented Veritas Backup Exec 8.6 or 9.0, on an NT 4.0 server platform, to perform backups of NetBSD 1.6x systems via Samba file shares. Said problem did NOT manifest itself until I tried using Samba 3.0.0. I have jumped back to 2.2.8a, since that's the last version that was known to

Gang, This is my first post here so if I screw up please let me know. I run samba 2.2.8a on Solaris at home (UltraUX). I have several XP pro and win98 clients on this same network (192.168.1.x). I'm on a TCP/IP network and access my shares using the IP, not the UNC names. I use the same workgroup name on all of my hosts and use 'share' level security on the samba server and it is

Do you have to enable encrypted passwords for smbpasswd to work? I have yet to enable encryption because I wanted to test everything first, but have enabled 'update encrypted = Yes' so that this will update the smbpasswd file. I also have 'unix password sync = Yes'. However, I cannot get smbpasswd to change the passwords, either by user or root. Any suggestions? Carey

SUSE 9.1 samba-3.0.9-2.6 samba-client-3.0.9-2.6 I am getting some errors that I can't seem to track down in any of the archives. I came across this problem when trying to delete a driver none of the printers are listed in the smb.conf - it is all being generated from the cups and the printcap that cups makes on load First enumprinters works: rpcclient $> enumprinters

Samba 3.0.9 SUSE 9.1 have a semi-working point-n-print server working, however when I try to add the drivers for a BROTHER 1850, windows explorer seems to crash and then when I try to edit the properties I get a protection fault error I can successfully add the printer (right click CONNECT) to other machines, but it doesnt print and it just fails with properties dialog as well thanks --

I have successfully joined the XP machine to the domain. The strange part is, that it only wanted to be joined if it connected to the PDC and not the BDC. The way it is set-up is that the XP machine and a BDC is in one branch and the PDC is in another. Every time I would try to connect via the BDC, it would return a value ACCESS DENIED I stopped the smb service on the BDC, and got it to

Sorry for all the newbie questions... I could have sworn I saw something about a utility that exports the SAM database from NT into Linux.. seems like it is the lego syndrome, saw it while doing WINBIND searches, can't find it elsewise...anyway...could someone point me in the right direction? I want to export my users from NT to linux with passwords....if that is impossible, I also have all

using samba and ldap - redhat 7.3 trying to work on a short cgi to update samba password (it is a url with attributes username and password). I am not very good at all with perl, so if someone can take a quick ponder and help me out, that would be great. I think that it fails in theory however, because to change other users password, you need to be root ... So I was wondering if anyone knows

from the README: " These are smaller builds with just selected modules, intended primarilly for developers that don''t like to wait for a -xen kernel to build. The -xenU kernel is particularly small as it does not contain any physical device drivers, and hence is only useful for guest domains." correct me here, but does that mean for a typical rollout you want to

It is way too late to be wrestling with this, but being the obsessive compulsive I am..... I can not get an XP machine to join a samba-ldap domain The machine account has been made The XP registry and local policies have been set I continue to get 'specified domain does not exist' I have gone in circles nad can't figure a thing out!
