[Note to moderator, I couldn't remember which email account I subscribed to this list from. Sorry...] Hi All, Have any of you seen this little darling of an error on writing to a file? The sequence of events goes something like this: 1) File is opened for reading on a Samba server with oplocks disabled. Open request is requesting a batch oplock. 2) File open SUCCEEDS. (Should this have

Hi! I have a problem for a few weeks, and can't figure out what could be the problem. The client computer runs RHEL 5.2 (arch: x64_64); the smb server is unknown for us. I'm sorry, that I can't provide any info (usernames, servernames, IPs, etc), they are masked to look like variables. But they are correct as far as i am concerned. When I try to mount it with mount.cifs (.smbfs

I have tried Samba 3.0.2a and 3.0.4. We use Active directory. The server is running on RHEL3. When I connect to the server on a share that is acutally an ext3 or NFS file system, I have no known problems. We use ClearCase on Linux and I am trying to access my workspace (view) as I have done many times before on Solaris, but now we are running on Linux and with a newer version of ClearCase

Dear all, I have a SUN server running as ClearCase view-server and am using Samba for Interop. Today I updated Samba from 3.0.21c to 3.0.24 and now I cannot mount/start my views from windows!! MVFS error log on my windows client gives "{8 pid/tid 49800000c58/85fdf178} MvfsFsNotification: Unsupported filesystem type (6)" Samba logs don't show any error... Trying other

Hi all, Just a novice in this world of Samba. I got a question, probably too simple. No problem to access share file systems and mount ClearCase vobs. Log shows access granted to NT userid belonging to the right UNIX group. Then, editing a file ( using a view thru Explorer), log shows another non authenticate user called clearcase_albd trying to be validated. I guess due to

FYI: I'm using samba 2.0.6 for clearcase interoperation between Unix and NT, and while it works great 99% of the time, I run into a problem whenever I do a complete build on an NT system, which involves compiling ~1500 files. The first 1100 or so are compiled correctly, but then the following errors show up on the NT box: The system cannot open the device or file specified. And the

With xen-2.0.7 and a self configured 2.4.30 Kernel (+KLIPS from strongswan) I get error messages; i have never seen before. Can anyone tell me, what ERROR: no hit for procs_running^M ERROR: no hit for procs_blocked^M means? ^Msd(8,1):Using r5 hash to sort names ^MVFS: Mounted root (reiserfs filesystem) readonly. ^MFreeing unused kernel memory: 120k freed ^M^MINIT: version 2.85 booting^M^M

Hello, I realize that AIX 4.3.3 is a very old platform, but we have one such system which cannot be upgraded and requires Samba. We are currently using Samba 2.2.1a (!) and I'd like to upgrade to something more modern. This system participates in a Clearcase environment and we are trying to share an MVFS filesystem. Users complain that it takes a very long time (5+ minutes) to access this

Thanks in advance for reading this slightly long post. I checked the comp.protocols.smb archives along with the web site for info and was unsuccessful. All help and information is greatly appreciated. We are using Samba (1.9.17p3) for access to our Clearcase VOBS which are stored on a UNIX box (I'm aware this is supposedly not supported, but it has been working great up until these problems

We're trying to use samba to let our PC's mount view extended pathnames used by clearcase but they show up as empty. If anyone's used samba and Clear Case (by Pure Atria) and gotten it to work I'd love to hear how. thanks, Bill -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- William H.

I am [trying to] perform a test prior to moving my data to solaris and zfs. Things are going very poorly. Please suggest what I might do to understand what is going on, report a meaningful bug report, fix it, whatever! Both to learn what the compression could be, and to induce a heavy load to expose issues, I am running with compress=gzip-9. I have two machines, both identical 800MHz P3 with

We submitted bug 3342 on Dec. 20th, Too many open files. It has not moved from the new state. So lets try here. We have Dell Quad Xeon server that we end up rebooting about every 2-3 weeks when the number of open samba files sky rockets. The system is a ClearCase server system. We have been monitoring this system for a few months now and are not able to pin down a cause to this issue. The system

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,
