similar to: Merely Opening Excel Files Increments Last-Modification date on Samba Shares

I have had the same problem: Shared files, not owned by the user in question, were being deleted and re-written upon saving the file. Because Excel only gives user (not group) permission, it will muck up access for other users in the group. In my case, I was not enforcing anything (when the problem occurred) and my .conf only had the bare minimum of information, I also used method 3, but put a

I have found the following regarding this problem: 1. It occurs only on files that (a) the user does not own AND (b) samba is forcing write permissions on (e.g. with the "force group" or "force create mode"). 2. Problem does *not* occur when "force create mode" and similar are left out of share definition, and you rely on the default standard 644 file modes and 755

Dear list, I am using glm's to predict count data for a fish species inside and outside a marine reserve for three different methods of monitoring. I run glms and figured out the best model using step function for each methods used. I predicted two values for my fish counts inside and outside the reserve using means of each of the covariates (using predict() ) therefore I have only one value

My LAN has a single linux/samba server as a PDC/file server, and several windows workstations. The workstations get their IP addresses from a Linksys cable router DHCP server. I can't get the linux machine to resolve the NETBios names of the windows machines. >From the Linux machine I can see the Internet through the DSL router, I can ping the windows machines by IP address, but

fc2, samba 3.0.9 The samba server is PDC. Temporarily, the server was dhcp, which gave it the IP 192.168.1.64 we then set it to static 192.168.1.150, which is what we want. however, the different windows clients, on and off, on ping and such, resolve INTRANET, the netbios name of the pdc, to 192.168.1.64 still, despite me removing wins.dat. I even tried the following suggestion, to no avail

I'm in the process of setting up Samba 3 on a Fedora core machine with a second machine being an XP machine. I can ping from either machine to the other. The command smbclient -L netbiosname on the linux machine gives me a "Connection to netbiosname failed On the XP machine I've enabled Wins over TCP IP but the command nbtstat -n on the XP machine only lists itself while the

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'm running samba 2.2.5 on a RedHat 8 box. I need to mount a share from a PC that is on a domain that the linux box is not a part of. Normally with another PC you would specify your username as DOMAIN\user, how do I do this with smbmount? I've looked at the documentation, google, etc. I can't find anything. Is this even possible? Here's what I've tried: smbmount //dd192/PM

I noticed lots of smbclient options are missing in Samba 3.0.14a when compared to 3.0.13 - notably, all user/authentication options - so I can't connect now as a specified user anymore. Is it just my build, or is it "official"? Samba 3.0.14a: # smbclient --usage Usage: [-?] [-?|--help] [--usage] [-R|--name-resolve NAME-RESOLVE-ORDER] [-M|--message HOST] [-I|--ip-address IP]

Hi all, Situation: We use smbtar for backups, incrementals done using -N <last date file>, and this has worked well with samba 2.2.x After upgrading to 3.0b3, using the -N (newer) option to smbtar causes a bad interaction with smbclient. Eg,: # smbtar -s PC -x Share -u User -p Pwd -d / -t - -N last-backup -v gives (if you print out the eval at the end of smbtar script): eval

Hi, I?ve installed fedora core 2 with samba 3.0.X. The pc is a PDC and I?ve configured samba like I could see in this easy manual: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=6684 (before this, I write for each pc : adduser -g "group" -d /dev/null -s /dev/null netbiosname$ > smbpasswd -a -m netbiosname ) My domain admin group is called smbadmins. I only have two kind of

Hi, I wonder why 2 log files per client (log.$IP and log.$NETBIOSNAME) are created when "log file" ist set to "/var/log/samba/log.%m". I have tested this with Samba 3.0.14a, 3.0.13, 3.0.11, 3.0.10 and 2.2.3a. Samba 2.2.3a was the only release which created only one log file. Is that a bug or is there any sense in saving 2 files with exactly the same content? cheers, karolin

This problem began a couple months ago with my new install of (you guessed it) XP sp2. Now, when i mount a share from the xp machine to my debian box, everyone, including rot, gets a permission denied trying to ls the dir. I've read posts about switching to cifs, but that has opened a whole new can of worms. I'd just like to see smbfs mount my shares properly the way they used to. My

The samba log files leave something to be desired in both format and management. I'd like to propose a change if I could. Format: Previously, a log entry is cut with date and timestamp and action on a SINGLE line. Now the date and timestamp is on a separate line from the information that you'd look for in a log file (machine name, ip address, connection status for service, etc.) This is

Hi! I have a problem with gpupdate having a trust with a M$ -ADS domain. Before creating the trust gpupdate worked fine. Then i added the trust and then gpupdate gives the following error: Updating policy... Computer Policy update has completed successfully. User Policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encount ered: The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows

My server is CentOS with samba 3.0.25b. One client box runs Mandriva 2007.1 with samba 3.0.24. I can see the client box from the server, but the client box can't see the server. It can see the laptop on the same lan, though. Any suggestions as to what I could check? I know Craig said there had been some significant changes in recent versions. Are any of those changes likely to have
