Hello, I am Shashidhar SR Working for Siemens Communication Software in Bangalore, INDIA as a Configuration Manager for Clearcase. I need some help regarding the samba configuration at our site. First Let me Explain our Environment: - We are Using samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 9. - We are using samba as an interop from Solaris 9 box to winnt/w2k/win-xp clients. - On Solaris we have installed IBM

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 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,

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.

Andrew, Thank you for your suggestions. The real problem is Rational Technical support. When you pay someone 100k+ they tend to look for any excuse to deem you "unsupported". If you don't have your default group set to the clearcase user group, then technical support will decide that thats where your problem is! I am sure you know how that goes... I have solved problems

This falls under the 'getting clearcase to work with samba' category. Does anybody know if the clearcase albd server actually uses samba to access files (or anything else) on the unix side? I am having 'discussions' with rational (the clearcase people). The nt user running clearcase to access some unix-side views connects to the unix side using a set of credentials that have

We are having some problems in our company's test group that did not exist when our Clearcase 2003.06 server existed on a Solaris 8 machine. Now we are running on RHEL 5.2 with Clearcase 7.0.1.3 with Samba 3.0.28 (despite the fact that IBM has only blessed up to 3.0.24) and running into some file locking issues with some scripts our test group runs. I am hoping that someone might have some

Hi All, Users at our site are using SAMBA (Version 2.0.8 and 1.9.15p8) to map their Home Directories and their Clearcase Vobs/Views on their Windows 2000 desktops. Home directories are being mapped without any issues but while mapping their views/vobs we are getting the error stated below: Network path \\server name\share could not be found and The mapped network drive could not

I have a SAMBA Server utilizing an LDAP backend for user authentication and it works great unless I use ClearCase. When ClearCase is used the compilation time for our code is slowed down to a crawl and the ClearCase application is rendered nearly useless. As a test fix my boss wants me to create a second SAMBA server to be used for only the ClearCase server. I don't know if this will work,

Hi all -- I recently temporarily deployed an upgraded Clearcase server (7.1.2.3) on 64 bit RHEL 5.6. With it I was using Redhat's release of Samba for that version of the OS -- 3.0.33. The system has 32 GB of memory and within 12 hours, it would be down into swap. Maximum active licenses used is 36 but a more typical load is 18-25 users having a Clearcase license at once. Clearcase

Hi We are facing some issue While joining samba server to AD We have ClearCase VOB server on AIX 5.3 with TL 12 and SAMBA version 3.5.0 installed on Aix server. The AD server is Windows 2008 R2. We are unable to Join Samba server to AD . Command: net ads join createcomputer=<OU> -U <username> Please find the details smb.conf. Please advice on resolving this issue is highly

I'm hoping this turns into another case of 'knowing it works makes it happen.' I am involved with a unix clearcase installation which now needs to work with nt. We have clearcase 3.2.1 running on both the unix and nt side. Because we have checkin/checkout triggers hooked to some unix-side stuff, we need the unix views to be accessible from nt. Does anyone have direct experience

Is there anyone out there successfully using Rational Clearcase with SAMBA? Was there any special changes you had to make to get it to work? We were told by Rational specifically not to use SAMBA and wanted to get the other side.

For our Linux Machines (SLES 10) we are using kerberos and LDAP to authenticate against Active Directory (works perfectly) Please note that the same configuration works with Windows 2003 Server, the problem is with with Windows 2008 Server However we are experiencing problems with winbind for the file share, I see in the "log.winbind-idmap" logfile the following errors [2011/03/03

Hi - I'm getting timouts trying to access us1.samba.org or I'd look through the archives first. Anyone currently supporting any versions of Rational's ClearCase/samba/UNIX/NT? We are currently running samba v2.0.3 on both HP-UX 11.0 (vob server) and Solaris 2.5.1 (view server). Rational ClearCase v3.2.1 on the two UNIX and NT Workstation 4 (some SP3, some SP4) We currently support

Hello Samba, We tried to use samba-2.2.4-1 with Rational ClearCase and had a problem using WinBind. ClearCase requires the primary group id to be set to the clearcase users group. WinBind sets the primary group to something like DOMAIN_GROUP_RID_USERS. I am including the patch we made to samba-2.2.4 to get things working. I have added two new smb.conf options: winbind primary group //

Hi, folks: One of my developers brought a SAMBA/ClearCase permissions issue to my attention for which I have no visibility. Perhaps someone has run across this before, and could enlighten us? We are using ClearCase 5 on SunFire 880 vob servers, SAMBA 2.2. Developer creates file in unix vob, using unix view, from unix machine, testfile_unix_text Developer creates file in unix vob, using unix

Gerald, No worries. This patch is required if your using Rational ClearCase and you don't want everyone to have access to it. It's to fix a brokenness (IMO) within ClearCase, and maybe other programs. Our windows primary group has 10k+ users... I will shoot it off to Rational, so they can provide it to there customers. I was hoping it could be applied to the main tree so I could just

We have ClearCase database on unix and users on windows. We are creating Unix users locally on that Clearcase server. Samba is also installed on that server. User windows machines are part of domain. Groups,usres are created on domain and same users,groups are created on unix server. Now problem is occuring when a windows user is changing the password for his domain login. as soon as user is
