Hi Jerry et al, I'm using SAMBA 3.0.0 on Solaris 9, it looks very cute, unfortunately I can not set the permissions on the printers (I can as an admin add a user etc. but all changes are lost after applying):-( Is this somehow related to the error entries in the log file: [2003/11/17 14:45:31, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(577) ERROR: NULL dest in safe_strcpy If so will it be fixed in

I recently upgraded both of my samba servers (mirrors of each other) to 3.0.4, my log files now fill with the following messages (hundred lines per day): Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24 13:55:33, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(602) Jun 24 13:55:33 Clyde smbd[8597]: ERROR: string overflow by 1 (9 - 8) in safe_strcpy [LIBRA~V$.DOC] Jun 24 14:20:34 Clyde smbd[8597]: [2004/06/24

Hi, we've upgraded recently from samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b. Since then, we've getting these error messages from winbindd: Jul 17 12:00:23 cvk027 winbindd[20772]: [2007/07/17 12:00:23, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(659) The volume of these messages is very high, many times together with unreadable character garbage.

Hello All, Our samba server rarely shows up follwing message in syslog.

Hello, I'm using samba 3.0.4 (on RHL9) as a W2k3 domain member in an ADS realm. For printing I'm using CUPS of RHL9. The XP clients get the CUPS printers (CUPS redirects the printjob to the JetDirect card of the printer) and the appropriate PCL drivers installed via the "Point 'n Print" mechanism. The clients get their printers installed via de AD login script and the there

Hello, I run samba 3.0.4 on a RHL9 server. Samba is a domain member of a W2k3 ADS and I use CUPS as printing mechanism; therefore Samba is compiled with Kerberos 1.3.1-7 and cups-devel. 3.0.4 runs pretty good, printing via CUPS runs well too, only the following messages I see constantly (this flooding my logs) while using 3.0.4: winbindd.log ========= [2004/07/27 16:07:04, 1]

Windows 98 client cannot print via samba to PrintPro printer "exported" via Cups/PrintPro on PrintPro/Samba server.

I used to be able to load printer drivers via "server properties". Now when I go in the printer drivers are listed and I can use the properties button but the Add/Remove buttons are greyed out. This is a Samba 3.0.0/2.4.2-SGI_XFS_1.0 box and I've tried both NT4sp6 and Win2003beta clients (both exhibit the same behaviour). I see the following in the log when I connect to

I updated one of my file servers to 3.0.6, and while file serving is improved (no M$-Office file already open messages), every time I access a printer my logs flood with messages like to those below. It seems I can set printer properites, etc... but when I print the jobs seem to go to never-never land (still researching where the jobs go). [2004/08/20 08:46:27, 0]

I am attempting to setup a Samba printserver to replace our Windows Print servers. I have defined a few printers in CUPS, some raw, and some not. When I use the GUi to upload the drivers, The dialog works, however after that is accomplished, any attempt to get the printer properties or to use the printer from my W2K system (cpq0277) causes explorer to ABEND.

Hello List, After upgrading to 3.0.25b (Also tried 3.0.28) I tried to make use of the new syntax for IDMAP. But I failed, Also there is a lack on documentation how to us it.

I'm about ready to smash my head through a wall...I could use a few answers. 1. When using security = ads, and completing net ads join, it was my understanding that samba authenticated username/pword against ads, and local posix accounts were nolonger needed, is this true? 2. If yes, I have not been able to get it to work. If I have a posix user account with the same name as one in
