just noticed the following problem.. after running samba 302rc1(as pdc) for a few day's. old SMBD pid's are left in the procces tree.. eating memory and cpu time, causing linux to overload and not function annymore. after stopping samba, the smbd pid's will stay. stopping samba the 2nd time will do the trick, they finaly disapear... so you have to stop samba twice.. ?? don't

ehh, just a little remark/note for the mysql passwd backend users and developers... when adding a user, the 'account desc' field is NOT filled in..! when adding some text manualy, and doing pdbedit -v <user> the field showes up, so when reading from the passwdbackend, the fields are resolved, when writting too the passwdbackend , the description field (and maybe more important

Hi, i kinda learning to setup the samba4 all thing good so far (with the nice help of the wiki's, howto's and logics) except for the dns update part. some how i can't get the dns update to work i use bind 9.7.2 in fc14. pinging the machine gives an error of not knowing the machine in the dns.. bind9 does not show anny sign of an update, nor logs the the name of the machine ?!

Hey, I'm trying to use the mysql plugin with Samba 3.0.2 and am running into problems with the password storing aspect of the equation. Specifically, here is how I have the smb.conf file setup: [global] workgroup = SRS netbios name = DustPuppy passdb backend = mysql:mysql mysql:mysql host = localhost mysql:mysql user = samba

Hello everybody! Obviously Samba as a PDC and Fileserver for w2k clients is not as easy as I first thought. Soon after setup and integration in a network a problem with the shares and MS Word appeared. Any time a file is opened with M$ Word directly from a share and edited it can't be saved. The M$ user gets the msg that the file is write-protected and on the samba side the file

Hello, does anyone know if there is a tool in existence that can monitor samba shares like smbstatus but is much more advanced (and runs in console) , I mean a tool that has menues, some search options, and things sorted out nice. A Samba realtime monitor would be the best thing with lots of details and lots of options. I tried Swat, but that aint really a solution to watch who is connected

This isn't technically a samba question, but I figure there will be other samba users out there in the same boat. I have just setup the first Vista box on our samba domain and I am having some trouble with policies (they don't get applied). I have had a look around and there is alot of talk about the adm->admx change, etc but I haven't seen anyone say that anything needs to

Hi all, i have some odd errors i never had before, when compiling samba 3.0.28a first i had an error in oplock_linux.c ------------ :37 error: conflicting types for capget /usr/include/sys/capability.h:111 previous declaration of capget was here :39 error: conflicting types for capset /usr/include/sys/capability.h:110 previous declaration of capset was here -------------- i removed the capset

Hi all, i've got samba 3.6 joined to a ad domain (s4 in this case) running winbind all looks ok, but i ran into a problem (for us that is) i've got 2 groups (students and employes) who have there home dirs in 2 different places. /home/students/<user> /home/employ/<user> so far so good, but i can't make the [homes] work for both of them (just 1 group) in winbind

Hi I have a problem with samba 3.0.5pre1. Many of my users are disabled by samba and I can't find the reason why. Here is an example of an user disbled by samba: Unix username: christ NT username: christ Account Flags: [DU ] User SID: S-1-5-21-3371203057-3264423045-2392767973-4030 Primary Group SID: S-1-5-21-3371203057-3264423045-2392767973-1213

Hi , I want to set up my Redhat 6.0 Linux machine to Authenticate username and password and other information for user that received from /etc/passwd & /etc/shadow from MySQL server . How Can I do that ? any Refrences or Manual for this is helpfull :) Thanx Hamid Hashemi

Here are the configs of my PDC. (Ip: 192.168.10.2) workgroup = COREDIUM netbios name = IMBRIUM server string = Samba Server Imbrium encrypt passwords = Yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd unix password sync = Yes log level = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 time server = Yes socket

Just a quick question, we use pam_winbind to authenticate users against smb-pdc. (works ok btw) is there a way to make pam_winbind log the ip numbers of failed authentications ?? or is this done by the PAM service ?? if i look in the /var/log/messages log i see the loggings of success and failed logins, but without IP nrs. it's for adding iptables rules to a blacklist. Cheers & Thx

Hi, I want to move all the ZFS fs from one pool to another, but I don''t want to "gain" an extra level in the folder structure on the target pool. On the source zpool I used zfs snapshot -r tank at moveTank on the root fs and I got a new snapshot in all sub fs, as expected. Now, I want to use zfs send -R tank at moveTank | zfs recv targetTank/... which would place all zfs fs
