Hi, File server - samba 2.2.12 serving win95 and winXP systems. Win95 systems see network appropriately. WinXP systems can see the files when I do run > \\servername\filefolder\ but NOT when I go into my network places... What do I need to do to fix this? notes - a) changing the samba config files at times knocks out the win95 clients.. (config file below) b) winXP pro systems -

I have been successfully running a Samba server on my home LAN for several years. It's on an old Redhat 9 P3 box. I recently rebuilt my laptop with XP (after hard drive failure). I added just one user, the system administrator, with the same user name and password as before. Now the XP laptop cannot see the Samba server at all. samba server is at 192.168.0.3 XP laptop is at 192.168.0.7 (same

I'm not sure if this is supported or not, but I can't get it to work. I'm trying to get the smb password and the unix password to sync for mapped users. I have have 'unix password sync' turned on and I have the username mapping file set up. When I change a users password in windows (where the username is the same in windows and linux) the password changes just fine. When I

Hi, I'm just installing Samba for the first time and have a problem with name resolution on my test client. Samba 3.0.8 is installed on a RHES system named 'fileserver1 (.our.xxx.edu)'. The clients are Windows 2000 and XP systems. This is a subnet that is part of a larger campus network. There is no Domain, just a workgroup called 'our_adm'. I have a very simple smb.conf file

I've had weird problems getting winbind authentication working on my site. I eventually cured them by sticking -n on winbindd, thus turning off the caching. This was on a Redhat FC2 client authenticating with whatever domain servers our central IT people use. I tried the Samba that came with FC2 and a fresh 3.0.4 release compiled from source. Here's what happened: "getent

Hello, I have used Samba to create a file share of a folder on a linux box that I have setup for testing purposes. When I go to map a drive to this share on my Windows XP machine I can see the shared folder on this computer. However when I try to open this folder or map it to a drive even after entering the root user and the associated password for this Linux box I am continually seeing the

Hi there, We map a Sun Microsystems (Solaris 9) drive to a Windows 2003 server. This works fine except for the long UNIX (tm) filenames that are mapped as truncated 8.3 filenames on the MS server. Needless to say for backup purposes this defeats the object. I have scanned the archives but must be looking in the wrong places because I am unable to find a solution to this problem. Can anyone

I am having a hell of a time getting a group of Samba servers working together as a domain. My desired setup is to have one Samba PDC (LION) in control of the ANIMALS domain and then have the other Samba file server (HYDRA) join ANIMALS. Simple enough. My smb.conf files are attached. I have added a HYDRA$ machine account to LION per the usual directions. I then follow the simple directions

Hello, I've got a samba/win98 problem. This occurs with samba 2.05a and slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and samba 2.06. I've got two machines, one a pure 98 machine, the other split 50-50 linux and freebsd.

Hello! I work at a school in Norway, and am experimenting with a Linux box as a server for our Win95 network.
