Hello, I have the following in /etc/samba/smbfstab; //msserver/share /mnt/smb-share cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,credentials=/etc/cifsusers/admin,rw However, when using 'mount /mnt/smb_dir' I get; mount: can't find /mnt/smb_dir in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab Using 'mount -a' doesn't mount either.

Hello I am connecting to an NT server via a Linux client. I am mounting the drive on the client via the following in smbfstab: //server/Users /home/dm215/Desktop/SambaBringover smbfs username=user,password=pass,suid,uid=1000,gid=100,fmask=770,dmask=770,rw It works fine except the local user uid=1000 cannot write to certain directories.

I am runninng rsync on Ubuntu. It was installed using apt-get install rysnc. I note that the package has not yet been updated to rysnc 3.0. I would like to update using the tar but I am confused how to update the existing installation. On this machine, I am mainly using rsync to send to a cwrsync server (which I have updated already). Can I just overwrite the rsync executable? Any help

Hi list, is it possible to add multiple homedir templates to smb.conf ? I have a running linuxsystem where homefilesets are mounted from different windows-servers to subdirs like: /home/server01/home/USERNAME /home/server02/home/USERNAME /home/server03/home/USERNAME The users come via winbind.

Hi, An urgent problem that I have : runninng dc 0.99.14 w mbox on local ext3 , nothing special, no nfs, nothing. For this machine we have a backup server rsyncing everything over. Now the main server went down and we started DC on the backup machine some day ago. Everything went well, besides one problem : people complained about missing mails that they had seen beforehand. When looking in

Hello, well, i have a weird problem: i mounted a share, shared on winxp, on my gentoo linux box via mount -t smbfs.. everything seems to work - seems. When i started to backup files with rdiff-backup, i noticed that it reported about new and deleted files, yet those were never deleted and are still present on the source share on the windows machine. I thought it might be a bug in

I have Fedora Core 1 workstations configured with winbind logging onto our NT domain. Everything is going well except that I cannot seem to figure out how to connect to a windows home directory on a Win2000 server. Here is the scenario: W2K server with home directories for each user: Each user has modify permissions to their share Administrator has full control First off, I need to somehow

Hi, I'm trying to mount the samba shares into my SuSE 9.2 workstation, with no luck. Our server is in production, so there's nothing wrong in our samba server. But I can't mount my shares under KDE. Doing it with mount -t smbfs gives me a lot of Time Out errors, and the mount is unable to show any files. Seems that the smbfs module is broken in the 2.6.8 kernel. I don't know

Hi, John, thanks for replying. I am fully aware that this is a volunteer effort and do appreciate it very much. I really didn't expect an automatic answer - I was suggesting an automatic response which could indicate the objection[s]? I have downloaded the S3be `book' and ordered it from amazon.

I recently switched from using Redhat Linux 9 to SuSE 9.2 Pro and am having problems with an auto mounted share served from a Macintosh running Mac OS 10.3.6. I can read from the share without problems. However, writing to it is a different story. All the files/folders on the share are owned by janee in the group janee and have rw owner and group permissions. I've tried playing with the

I am running SSH on a number of servers but none use SSH for anything but admin login. I am thinking of switching all users to it (for obvious security reasons) but I have had a rash of problems lately. The first was the 'Bad Packet' error which no one seems to care about or know the answer to why it suddenly appears on 2 servers while other servers running the same OS and SSH version

Hello, smbmount from smbfsx-2.04b-1 kernel 2.2.7 I got a little problem with smbfs. Everything works fine, but sometimes i get doubled directory entries (not all of them). I turned debug on in smbfs and it looks that the doubled items come from NT server (4.0 server SP5 (PDC)). Listing from smbclient is fine. Here is an example from ls -l on smb share: -rw-rw---- 1 root samba 848

Hi everyone, I have so many problems with samba on one PC with SuSE 9.1 on. This PC is on a local area network with another PC with SuSE 9.0 on it with a working samba connection, and some windows clients. My 9.1 PC has an ASUS P4S800 motherboard and I use the integrated Asustek sis900 ethernet lan configured as eth0 with the sis900 module. Static IP and static gateway (the SuSE 9.0 machine).

I have a samba version 3.024 server joined to a ADS as a "Workstation or server" acting as a file/print server. It is a Debian 4.0 amd64 up to date with stable. ftp works just fine so not network, must be samba config. vary slow file transfer when copying file from one computer but copy from two or more at the same time speed is 10 times faster. You will be copying a 600MG file with one

hi, I thought it would be easy and over quickly - it has been anything but... I decided to test and use Samba 3.+ on my Suse linux pro 9.1 lan but cannot get it to work and need some help/guidance. I have two essentially identical linux computers [east and west] and I have both of them as both server AND client. At a later date, after this `simple' lan works, I plan to add a ms portable
