Hi there. I'm running Samba 2.2.3a on RedHat 7.1 + kernel 2.4.17. My girlfriend's laptop is running Windows 2000 + service pack 2. She has about a thousand MP3s stored on a Samba share on my RedHat machine. We were finding that she couldn't rename any MP3s on the Samba share: she would always get a sharing violation. After a day of reading Samba logs at debug 10 (_such_ fun [ ;)

Folks, Thanks to Ricardo Stella and "Chris" for quick assistance, I had sent about 15 help requests to listproc and given up, seeing no sign of a samba-digest list which is what my majordomo training has taught me. What a strange default setting . . . So onto my question about Samba. I've installed the latest RPM from the samba FTP site (samba-2.0.6-19991110) on a RedHat Linux

Hey All, I'm having problems with samba/windows file attributes. I'm using roaming profiles (Win2000) with Samba serving as the PDC. Samba also stores the profiles. The 'Create Mask' is 0744 and the 'force create' is 00. Now the problem is my read-only files are not kept at read-only when I log in. Basically, I create a *read-only* file in my window profiles directory

Hello, I do have a very strange behavior. For some reason, I only observe this, when I access a samba share through an openvpn tunnel. (1) objective have a share, have SECURITY USERS (to control access rights), but NULL PASSWORDS (authentication is fine enough by vpn). Find config files below. This is samba 3.3.2. Openvpn 2.1_rc11. (2) issue I connect via vpn from winXP ... fine I access

I've attempted to do the same using Win2k's APW. At first it looks like it's going to work, but at the very last part it gives an access denied error. It gives the errors AFTER it copies all the files to the server... Here's the log.spleen (my win2k is spleen): unix_clean_name [W32X86/PSCRIPT.NTF] [2003/08/08 16:46:05, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(580) unix_clean_name

Ubuntu Samba server running Version 3.4.0 Most windows and OS X clients connect with no issues. Permissions are working correctly on shares and umask settings are working on Window 7, OS X, and XP. The annoying mystery here is that these little bugs are annoying users and taking up precious time... Most recently, Mac1 (OS X 10.6.5 smb Version 3.0.28a-apple) is able to change a directory's

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.2 on HP-UX 11, serving a few printers. When I install a new driver via win2000' printer properties dialogue it works fine. When I try to do the same from unix with the imprints package, ist screwed. The driver files get uploaded, but they don't register as an installed driver, with rpcclient 'enumdrivers' I don't 'see' them. When I set the

Hi folks, I've got a serious problem with samba since I upgrade an stone-age caldera-box with a 2.0.x-samba to redhat-7.2 with 2.2.1a-samba. I can create, delete directories and files without any problems. But renaming them (i.e. by creating a new folder which has new folder as default) does not work. I always get an error, that the file does not exist. I am trying from a win2k-professional

Greetings, I've got a samba server that has been serving a 100+ user network for over a year with no issues, except recently, one XP workstation throws a sharing violation when saving Excel files, but only intermittently. It's an older Samba version (3.0.29) - and yes, I know I have to upgrade. OS is Fedora 9 x64. The log shows the following when this occurs: [2009/12/18 09:42:25, 0]

Folks, I tried using full_audit on Samba 3.0.28 by putting the following lines on smb.conf (global section): vfs objects = full_audit full_audit:facility = LOCAL2 full_audit:priority = WARN full_audit:prefix = %u|%m|%S full_audit:success = rename rmdir unlink write full_audit:failure = none My log says: Dec 29 13:57:07 lua smbd_audit: [2008/12/29 13:57:07, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(45) Dec

Is there a different behaviour to mangled names in 3.0.x over 2.2.8a? When we double-click on the following reg file: m:\xpapps\hvcc\reg\visstud\hkcuvccomb.reg We get a registry editor error: Cannot import m:\xpapps\hvcc\reg\visstud\HSCNGB~G.REG: Error opening file. There may be a disk or file system error. when I set "mangled names = no" is behaves as expected. This behaviour is

I will probably file a bug about this, but perhaps someone here will have some ideas. We have a problem with files being deleted instead of being saved when making changes in Microsoft Excel. The log shows an error of: 'Lock order violation'. This is with Samba 4.1.6 and happens on both Linux (2.6.25-14.fc9.i686) and Solaris 10. No such problem when running Samba 3.6.22. We have a setup

Hi all, I am going to be teaching a workshop next week using R and Bioconductor in one of our university's computer labs. They have recently installed R 2.4.1 for me, and I'm checking all my scripts. I just noticed that using the ?somefunction call to access the documentation for that function is not working. On my own PC, the ? call output changed between R 2.3 and 2.4; before it would

Hi all i have an interesting project that i have been working on. i intended to set this as a first year programming problem but then changed my mind since i thought that it might be too difficult for them to program. the problem is as follows: You have been approached by a local casino in order to investigate the performance of one of their slot machines. The slot machine

I'm hoping someone has some insight into a problem I'm currenty having, which is: No one is able to edit (in place) documents with Word 2000 on a samba (2.2.6) disk share. A user can open word and save a document to the share, but when they go to edit the document Word says "Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error". From Microsoft KB Q211632 it appears

Here's my setup: Caldera Open Linux Lite (kernel 2.0.29) Samba 2.0.4a Windows Domain (Two Windows NT 4.0 Servers -- one PDC, one BDC -- and numerous Windows NT 4.0 Workstations) I can see my Linux box in Network Neighborhood on my Windows NT boxes. I can open the Linux box and see the top level shares available. When I try to open a share I see one or two anonymous folders. Anyone

All files transferred to my Samba server end up with lower case on the Unix box. Case is not preserved from NT to Unix. For example, if I copy C:\Temp\MyFile to a directory on the Samba server, it ends up there as myfile. What am I missing? I browsed the FAQ's in the web pages, without success...
