You override the default mangling method in samba3 from hash2 to hash. hash2 behaves more like Windows mangling. > mangling method = hash Either take this line out or change it to hash2.

Hello all, Samba 3.0.1 on Sun Solaris 5.9. I'm seeing both a share \\my_server\homes and a share \\my_server\<username>. For example: \\my_server\homes \\my_server\doejohn Or: \\my_server\homes \\my_server\doejane Both point to the home dir /export/home/doejane of user doejane. I want to get rid of the \\my_server\homes share and - in this case - only want \\my_server\doejane to

Hi We are testing out samba at the moment version 3.0.0-15 on Fedora caore 1. And are using winbind to comunicate to our NT domain. doing a wbinfo -u at the command line scrolls threw all our domin users on the NT pdc. :) At the moment we are trying to get the samba server to creature the unix users from the supplied NT user accounts when an NT use logs onto the box for the first time by a

I create a Bootdisk from Win98 with "sys a:" and the netsetup from the Microsoft FTP-server to have TCP/IP under DOS. I can map the shares from Samba to a drive with: "net use d: \\server\win98" The problem is that all long filenames are mangled, but not in the way DOS does it. The Folder "Program Files" does not become "Progra~1" but "Progr~4Z".

Hi! I want to control the users account stored in smbpasswd from a PHP file, so I found a description for 3.0 on address: http://hu.samba.org/samba/docs/man/smbpasswd.5.html It is very good, but I have an account flag like 'UX' and the 'X' flag is not written. What does that mean? Are there a complete documentation somewhere or this is just a mistake from my old samba

I am suddenly no longer able to see any existing files on one of my shares, from my Windows clients. I have a Linux server (Fedora Core 8) which used to be my firewall and router as well as file and print server. There are two Samba shares on it I have mounted on various Windows clients: my home directory and a multimedia directory with my music and videos, etc. I mount the former as H: on all my

Hello, (I found a post in the archives titled "link_dest checks perms despite no -p -o or -g" on April 7th, which might be related - not sure...) I'm trying to get a rotating daily backup going with previous days kept as hard links to save on network transfer and disk space. The plan: on day N, rsync to blah/N/, using --link-dest=../<N-1> (modulo 7 or whatever). My test

Hi! I want to list users from smbpasswd (stored in /etc/samba). I chmoded the file from 600 to 644, to ba able to read it with PHP. After a while somehow it changed back to 600, so it was fully unreadable again :( How can I set that the samba don't need to change it back OR change it deafaultly to 644? (someone told me to make a hardlink to the file when it is 644 but that did not

I have compiled and tested Samba 3-alpha (CVS up to 10/12/01) and I have the following problem. Anyone tell me what I am doing wrong as I can't believe that I am the only person suffering from this. The environment is Mandrake 7.2 with kernel 2.2.17 talking to multiple machines running Win98 and WinMe. This also happens on Mandrake 8.1 with kernel 2.4.8. I have the ability to easily

Does ANYONE know why a directory listing from the MSDOS box of a Windows9x/Me client of a Samba 3 share on Linux not show the long filenames as well as the mangled form? This works on Samba 2.2.3.

Hi! :o) I've got an Debian linux running on an Alpha machine.I had a Celeron II before, with Samba 2.2.6. I've made the change to Samba 3.0.0 and then I've just upgraded to 3.0.2a tonight. In the old smb.conf I've had a line "include = /etc/samba/configs/%U.conf" that was good in the old state, but with the new it doesn't work. I find out that the samba does not

Hello all, after endless searching for days you might be able to help. In short: Is there a way to get Samba accept only 8.3 filenames and directory names on a share? The problem: From a windows client a user should be able to save files on a destination (samba share) which aren't longer than the old 8.3 dos convention. This is a requirement for a system behind it, which can only deal

I have problems with SID to UID mapping using winbind on a FreeBSD 5.2/Samba 3.0.4 as a member server of a Win2k domain controller. I use heimdal-0.6.1 for kerberos. I would like my XP machines in the domain to use the share with the user accounts defined in Active Directory. At a first glance it seems to work: the connection to the share succeeds without a prompt for a password. Users may

Hi, This might not be entirely samba server related, but the problem I am experiencing is affecting a planned implementation of a new Samba Server, and from the smbmount man page, it appears that this is the recommended list to reqest help - so hopefully someone might be able to assist :-). I am running a Debian Linux machine (kernel 2.6.0) with Samba 3.0.1 which will soon be replacing an

Hi folks, I am having a problem rsyncing files with accents in the names. I've seen similar problems reported a few times before in the archives but they didn't seem to be referring to exactly the same problem as what I have, and I'm not good enough at Linux to solve my problem by generalising from the information there: sorry. Anyway, my specific details are this. I am running rsync

Hi all, I'm running Samba 3.0.31_1,1 on FreeBSD 7.0. I have a problem where some files on the fileserver appear to have illegal characters in them and so look mangled-up when viewed over Samba. Here's an example, listing files over Samba: rococo% ls PR Archive Awards ACD76Y~N <-- Inhouse folder AOBC8G~A <-- Outhouse folder Listing the same files directly on the

Hi List, This one is puzzling me. I suspect it is largely due to a badly-behaved installer, but I would appreciate any help. I'm so puzzled, I'm not even sure how to explain the problem, but here goes... I have a Samba 3.0.1 system on AIX 5.2, which a number of XP users connect to, in order to access an application installed there. The upgrade installer for said application is causing
