Hi, I just installed Samba 3.0.24 on AIX. I was able to installed it and configure it to share a directory with NT users. However, I can't login to SWAT as root. I am getting 401 bad authorization error. Can anybody help? Thanks, Yun Lee

Hello AIX folks, I am changing the packaging of Samba for AIX. Presently Samba is built with a truckload of static libs and bound up in a package that has no other support for the supporting infrastructure. What I'd like to do instead is make as much of the package dependant upon shared libs and to allow for completeness of the package. In other words, BDB, OpenSSL, OpenLDAP, SASL, KRB5,

Help please. I am in the process of configuring Samba 3.0.14a onto 4 AIX 5.3 systems. It seems to be working OK on 3 of the 4, but on the last one, I cannot start smbd. nmbd seems to start fine. The smb.conf file matches the other servers except that the server name is changed. Here's the error showing up on the log.smbd file. [2007/05/02 15:19:47, 0] smbd/server.c:main(835) standard

Hi All I'm trying to intergrate samba server with ADS on AIX 6.1 TL04, for last one week, with idmap / winbind but no satisfactory results. I have gone through various links at samba.org relating to winbind, idmapper and followed http://pware.hvcc.edu/ for precompiled binaries and http://pware.hvcc.edu/AIX-Samba.pdf which is for AIX 6.1 TL03 though. I have found the samba which is provided

Hello, I am running SAMBA 2.0.7.0 on AIX 4.3.3.0 I have a 1 Tera Byte filesystem on AIX made available to NT and MAC. There is heavy IO activity on this filesystem and all of a sudden the NT's and MAC's can't read or write any file on this shared filesystem. Also AIX is running out of memory whenever this happens and files cannot be copied onto the said filesystem even at unix

I have a samba server running on ubuntu 9.10 with windows (both Xp and vista) clients running quickbooks (accounting software). Quickbooks can connect to the samba server and get access to the data files with no problems, if the secretary uses quickbooks continuously there is never a problem the system works for hours on end. However if the secretary leaves the software running but doing nothing

First off, let me state that I am not a C programmer at all. I am a programmer in other languages, so I understand the basic configure/make/make install procedure for most GNU packages, and have done it lots of times. I downloaded the GNU iconv libraries, compiled them and used --prefix=/usr/local/special to keep from replacing the standard AIX libraries. Then I downloaded the 3.0.2a source and

I've tried building samba 3.0.20 and 21a without luck. I've tried binaries and they all give this error.

Starting three days ago I have found over 4,000 of these error messages in my messages log. Mar 5 15:49:48 fs3 smbd[13785]: alloc_sub_basic: NULL source string! This should not happen Nothing has been changed on the samba config in over a week and that change was about the spin lock time setting. The server is RedHat ES 3 running Samba 3.0.2. The client machines are a mix of Win98 and WinXP

Hi all Have an installation that is having problems using samba 2.2.5 on AIX 5.1 When I try to use the pdbedit command I get the following What I ultimately want to do is have samba expire and force the users to change their passwords periodically. I realize that it looks like I am missing a lib here but which one and where do I get it. The company I work for is strict on

I a have a problem resulting from a neat tool I developed through the use of the "root preexec" option: This is done in the [homes] section of smb.conf. I launch a shell script with the user name (%u) and machine name (%m). The shell calls a C program to check the users quota and returns a code as the percentage of quota used. Meanwhile, all output of the C program has been captured

Dear all, I have a client who uses Samba 3.0.28 on AIX 5.3 and he is running into problems with the cpu utilization which is 100% caused by one or more smbd processes. I found out that this problem should be solved in version 3.0.37 and want to know if there is a way to get the bff-file of this version. I am not able to compile samba myself on the machine which has the problem and I am

Hello, I have samba-3.0.10-1.4E.6 bundled with CentOS 4.3 x86_64 and I can't browse it with Win98. I have a very simple setup, Share type, with access to everyone.

If I type the whole path to the share(ex: \\server\transfer), in Win98, it

Hi all We are currently looking to implement a scenario where our AIX Unix Server and Windows Server can communicate with each other using a version of Samba. We currently scan images which are stored on our Unix system and ideally we would like our Windows Server to have access to these files. The software we use for our daily business is Unix based so the the scanned images have to be
