Hi, we have a strange samba locking problem with version 3.0. Sometimes user only get a read only access to files. This happens with different users on different clients. Unix permissions are OK. I have realy no idea. Can you help ? Thanx Peter Huber -------------- next part -------------- [2004/03/02 15:03:56, 5] smbd/uid.c:change_to_root_user(217) change_to_root_user: now uid=(0,0)

Hi list, )2nd try bcs. of missing attachements). Following (very strange) problem: An ordinary windows user has mapped a drive F: on \\LUN1\Programme (running samba-3.0.20b-3 debian). The program "F:\Network\PMail V3\Pegasus Mail\winpm-32.exe" is being started, this works. But after about 10 minutes, the same program start fails with "invalid path or filename". When

Hello, We're experiencing a problem with samba after an upgrade, which only occurs when using a strange combination of software. The problem only occurs with samba 2.2 and higher. This problem does not occur with samba 2.0. We tested this with samba 3.0alpha17, 2.2.2, 2.2.4, and 2.0.10 First off, sticking to procedure, TESTs 1-11 as described in DIAGNOSIS.txt succeed. I've gone as

Is anyone else experiencing problems with offline files and folders on Win 2K (SP4)? They are set up OK but when the Win2K machine goes off line and files are modified it won't sync back when back on the network. Error message from the file sync on windows is 'Access denied' (on the server) But I can easily do the overwrite manually so permissions are OK. Below is the log (level 10)

dear all, i'm running samba (3.0.10-1.4E.2, original update packet from RHEL 4) on RHEL 4 U2 and as member of a active-directory (smb.conf: security = DOMAIN). it works fine for some days but after that the number of running smbd's increases until the machine reaches some process-limits.... strace of one of the hanging smbd's shows: (atpcw6zc)/var/log/samba# strace -f -p 2341

Hello All, I'm having problems accessing getting a directory listing from samba(3.0.23d) with win xp clients. I can mount a share from win xp, create a directory, create a file, edit the file, etc. But listing the directory contents is fickle. If its a very small directory things appear to work fine. But a directory with around 30 files seems to hang and eventually returns "File Not

Hello, I have a samba server which has a directory with 11764 files. (The program stores information about jobs and each job has 3 files, nothing I can do about it). When I do a listing of that directory using smbclient, it takes 15+ seconds to complete, same thing on Windows XP. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can speed this up? I did a log on log level 10, it is accessible at

Jeremy, I think we found the part of source where the problem resides: smbd/trans2.c +1444 for (i=0;(i<maxentries) && !finished && !out_of_space;i++) { +1445 BOOL got_exact_match = False; +1446 +1447 /* this is a heuristic to avoid seeking the dirptr except when +1448 absolutely necessary. It allows for

I'm using samba 3.0.25a on a Solaris 9 box with separate W2K and XP clients accessing a share. The issue I'm having is that not all files appear in folder listings via Explorer/DOS windows on the XP client. This only happens when an app on the W2K side is simulateously accessing/creating files on the same share but not neccessarily in the same folder. I've since run samba in top

Hi, I'm trying to set up msdfs on FreeBSD 4.10 with samba 3.08. The clients I use are WinXp (sp1) and the desktop browser on RedHat ES3. Problems described beneath are identical for both clients. I tried to follow the howto as precisely as possible to not into problems, however, I did... In /export/dfsroot I made a link msdfs:strsvr01\part0 . I made sure everything is in lower case.

In a directory with approximately 6000 files, several files are missing on the Windows side. If I check the directory on Unix (AIX) they are all there. As far as I can see there's nothing strange with this files en I can't see any connection between the missing files. It looks like it's randomly. A few examples of missing files: FAKTREF.10062005.16 (See debug information)

I'm having problems with one share. It's mounting a directory on an isilon over NFS. I've re-created the setup on the same machine where the data is and that works fine, it's just the existing share gives trouble. I can create a file, but not rename and sometimes not delete. Also saving file from say photoshop result in two empty files being created one with the proper filename

Hello I just moved a win nt file server to linux/samba I've performance problem with the new server thought it's a more powerful machine (and os ;-) ): programs loaded from shares take (much) longer to start A network trace shows up that the throughput needed to achieve the program run (double clic to start then exit) from the linux server is more than 3 times the one needed to run from

Hi, I'm using Samba 4.1.6 (version included in last Ubuntu LTS version). I've some directories in a share. One of them has an exe file. In root of my share I've a lnk file to this exe. So I've: /home/share/IntegrDom/IntegrDom.exe and /home/share/Install_Client_Scribe.lnk (which is a link to /home/share/IntegrDom/IntegrDom.exe). This point is important, if I remove this lnk

Prior to upgrading from RH7.0 to RH7.3 our Samba filserver worked perfectly. Now we are having locking problems. Initially Iused the same samba binaries built on RH70, I tried rebuilding Samba and reinstalling but it had no effect. If user bon opens an M$-Office file they frequently get a 'file is already in use by bob'. Sure enough smbstatus -L shows the file locked by bob, but bob

Greetings, I am running 2.2.7a as a domain controller on RH 8.0 When I attempt to create a folder I get the following "warning" "You may not be able to access the files created in the folder .... Do you want to continue?" If I continue everything goes file (the folder is created and I can access it). I find a file in there called TESTDIR.TMP. I thought it may have been a
