-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I am just curious, about the following: I've upgraded from 3.0.1pre3 to 3.0.1rc2 and found that running testparm gives me sessionid.tdb not initialised, and then outputs what is expected.

Hi all, I just figured out something that I could not find any solutions on any where, and thought I'd share it with you. Initially I had a standard rpm install from the distribution for Samba (2.2.1a). A new fix version came out and since the rpm version was older I decided to switch to installing from src (2.2.2). Then in a weak moment I executed an online software upgrade, in

HI, I recently upgraded from SAMBA 2.0.7 to SAMBA 2.2.2. I downloaded the binaries (from samba.org binary packages) for HP UX 10.20. I am able to map drives and print however when I execute smbstatus (even at the root level) I get connections.tdb not initialised. This file does not exist in the /var/opt/samba/locks directory. I changed my log level to 3 to try to see what is going on but

Hi, Can you help me.....I have downloaded the latest version of samba 3.0.0. After having followed the instructions to configure & compile etc I am getting the following error message when I run the command smbstatus. smbstatus Error trying to resolve symbol 'init_module' in /usr/local/samba/lib/charset/CP850.so: ld.so.1: smbstatus: fatal: /usr/local/samba/lib/charset/

I've fetched and compiled the latest from cvs --with-ldapsam, and didn't appear to have any problem. testparm complains thusly: ERROR: both 'wins support = true' and 'wins server = <server>' cannot be set in the smb.conf file. nmbd will abort with this setting. ...even though there is no "wins server" entry in the smb.conf, but it then reports everything

Hello All, I am facing some problems with the samba 3.0.14a + Cups 1.1.12 and Solaris 10 combination. I am using the printing services on Samba.

My samba has been setup in its current configuration for around 9 months and has worked without a problem, over the weekend my windows boxes were unable to access the samba shares. Using SWAT I found that the smbd was not starting. I have tried the following: Trying to start smbd (as root) from the cli with: smbd start Seems to execute the command and gave no errors but still swat says that

Greetings, After recently upgrading Samba from 2.0.7 to 2.2.2 on my Solaris Unix servers, I have problems running command 'smbstatus'. When I run smbstatus as root, it correctly displays connection information for users who've mapped network drives to server shares. However, when I run smbstatus as non-root, instead of displaying connection information, it issues the message

I have a Samba server configured as PDC for ~100 computers. It's version 3.0.24 running on Debian Etch (distribution package). I want to write a tool for user logon/logoff tracking. Because parsing log files is hard job (windows frequently disconnets or connects during user session or etc.) I decide to use smbstatus output which seem to be reliable. So I run smbstatus binary every 10

Hi! I've been fighting with Samba for over a week now and I can't seem to work it out. It all started when I installed the standard samba (2.2.1a-4) which came with RH7.2. I ran "smbstatus" and got the following error: Failed to open byte range locking database ERROR: Failed to initialise locking database Can't initialise locking module - exiting. I've tried the

Hello, I've found this issue reported only once before but no real answer was provided/found. I am trying to migrate from an old 2.0.7 server, but the bundled install 3.0.24 on FC6 is giving me major pain. Putting aside the actual configuration and user migration which I need to figure out, the problem is that nmbd refuses to start with the following errors in the log: [2007/02/26 14:05:26,
