Hello everyone, I am a newbie to samba. I am trying to mount a Windows 2000 share directory on my linux box using smbmount. I am able to do so successfully. But I do see some errors pop up when I run the command. My mount seems to be stable and it is mounted as rw. # smbmount "//EngineerWKS85/My Drivers" /mnt/samba -o username=MyUsername,password=MyPassword,workgroup=MyWorkgroup

I'm using Samba 2.0.6 on a Linux server. When using smbmount or mount to mount a share from an NT server, how do I set file permissions. An older smbmount allowed a -d and -f switch to set the file permissions. The newest one does not support these. The man pages for smbmount and smbmnt mention using syntax that does not work. I finally have gotten the mount command to work, but now I

Greetings- I am working through coming up with a Linux client integration to Samba PDC's. I mount several shares with this sort of syntax: /bin/mount -t cifs -o credentials=/home/userid/.smbcredentials,uid=userid,gid=userid,dmask=0777,fmask=0666 //ldslnx01/data /mnt/ldslnx01/data/ However when I create new files/dirs on the Samba share from the Linux workstation, the perms are not 0666/0777

Samba 3.0.1 on Mandrake 9.1ish Kerberos version seems to match latest stable MIT build. I can log in via Kerberos authentication and/or winbind. A couple of problems though. 1) telnet with the domain username and password and the telnet session doesn?t reader /etc/bashrc. Telnet with local username and it does. bash is the shell for both accounts. 2) The group account is ?Domain

Local software is: samba-client-2.0.7-4 samba-common-2.0.7-4 samba-2.0.7-4 on RH 6.2 plus fixes, kernel is 2.2.16-3 NT server is 4.0 SP4 As root I can mount an NT share onto the Linux system: /usr/bin/smbmount '//ntserver/myshare' /mnt/test -o username=mylinuxuser,password=something,uid=myntuser,workgroup=CMP But the mount point gets forced to mode 555 instead of 755. It's not an NT

Hello. I hope that this is the proper place to ask this. Here is my problem. I have several smbmounts under Red Hat Linux 5.1. They need to be accessed by my apache web server. One of the mounts keeps getting disconnected, but this is not noticed by Linux. So the Linux box thinks that the files under the smbmount are still accessable when they aren't actually mounted. What would be the best

ok, on my windows machine, i see: myname on 'computer01\home' (H:) so i went to my linux box and did: smbclient -L //computer01 -U myname and i see Home listed as a sharename (why does windows show it as "home" but its really "Home" as reported by smbclient?). well everything works fine if i mount it like this: smbmount //computer01/Home /mnt/computer01/Home -o

Hi, Since i upgraded to Linux Redhat 9.0 / samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0 / kernel 2.4.20-9 i have the following problem: # smbmount //amd/Films /mnt/disk -o username=jan,password=XXXXXX # In 50% of the times i do this command it mounts the share and goes into daemon mode and ps -aux shows one process smbmount. All ok. However in the other 50% the command just hangs. If i open a new window it did do

I need to mount a samba share as mode 777, so all users can read/write/delete/create.

Hello. I thought I had this fixed 3 times now... but it keeps coming up. I have 2 smbservers that are part of an ADS domain (windows 2003 server). I have my samba servers set up, and it works great for a month or so, then it starts giving smbmount and smbclient a hard time. This is very bad news because I rely upon smbmount heavily. When I try to view the shares my main server, and use the

I've got a Problem using samba4 as PDS and Win7 Client. I'm not able to rename a file in Windows Explorer. I can connect shares. I can create, open and write files but I cannot rename or move them.

The following scriptlet, containing a wrong password among the mount options, #!/bin/bash /bin/mount -t smbfs -o \ "netbiosname=mymachine,workgroup=group,username=user, \ password=wrongpasswd,ro,debug=4" //machine/c /mnt/dir /bin/echo "Exit $?" returns invariably mount.smbfs started (version 2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix) added interface ip=192.168.0.53

Hi everyone, I am having trouble mounting a share on my AD server upon login. I am using pam_mount. Here is log activity when user 'peter' logs in (with Ubuntu client) and is authenticated by AD server. There is a share called 'peter' on the server (netbios name WIN2003) and the mount point is /home/PRIVATE/peter (see later for pam_mount.conf file): ===================== Jul

Hi, I'm having some odd problems with samba in combination with fam. On my linux system I have mounted some partitions that are shared by a Win2k machine on my LAN. With any GUI filemanager using fam I can create files and directories, but I can't delete directories, only files. If I try to delete a directory, it just doesn't work. If I try to delete a directory containing files,

Hi all. I am a pretty new user, but I now have two networked PC's, with LINUX (current Slackware distro, kernel 2.4.22?) with dual boot with WINXP (Prof), and a networked WINXP (Home) client machine. Here is my problem, stated as succinctly as possible: "To state it in one sentence, what must one do to enable a WIN(XP) client box to access WIN(XP) partitions on another machine that is

Hi, I'm running Linux 2.2.2 w/ Samba 2.0.2, using the smbmount that comes with Samba 2.0.2. I noticed that when I mount shares, smbmount sticks around, almost like a daemon: [root@jason /root]# smbmount //XXXX.gatech.edu/XXXX$ "XXXXXX" -U jkau -c "mount /mnt/cnd" < /dev/null > /tmp/smbmount.out [root@jason /root]# ps ax | grep smbmount 10678 ?

Hi! How do I create a mountpoint with smbmount, that attaches to \\server\share\dir (on a Windows 2000 server) ?? If I mount to \\server\share I'm not able to see anything - but the mapping to the same server (from a Win2000 client) is okay, and I can see the contents of the directory... Trying to map to //server/share/dir gives me an error: 24402: tree connect failed: ERRDOS -

Hi ! The O'Reilly "Using Samba" book, recommend not to include smbmount support as it is for Linux only: "This feature wasn't being maintained at the time the book was written, so the Samba team made it an optional feature and provided smbwrapper instead. The smbwrapper feature works on more Unix platforms than smbmount, so you'll usually want to use --with-smbwrapper
