Good Morning, I am trying to setup a basic samba config by first starting up swat. I have followed the guide http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch02.html but have problems. I am running kubuntu, samba 3.0.14a, my smb.conf file is ... [global] workgroup = METRAN encrypt passwords = yes [test] comment = For testing only, please path = /etc/samba/tmp read only = no

Don't feel stupid. I'd guess you're using 2.4 kernel and not the 2.2 kernel? In 2.2 services default to using inet.d In 2.4 services default to using xinetd to start stuff. You need to go to /etc/xinet.d and make sure the file swat has a "disable=no" in it. As a matter of fact, for security purposes, I'd do a vi * in that directory (/etc/xinet.d ) and make sure

I have tried everything that I know of. I have reviewed the services file and the swat file in xinetd.d a tun of times. It appears, via netstat that swat is listening on port 901. However when I attempt to access it via the Mozilla browser on my Fedora server (with 127.0.0.1:901 or localhost:901) nothing happens. It just sits there. However, if I access it via webmin (which has swat stored

I've installed the rpm's and everything seems to be set up fine. I've been through many documents (even the one on redhat that says i must change localhost to 127.0.0.1 in one of the config files (/etc/xinetd.d/swat). When i direct mozilla to http://localhost:901 I get, "The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:901 I think maybe that something is not

Hi. I just joined the Samba mailing list and this is my first question. I would like to upgrade on of my PowerPC Macs (running Mac OS X 10.5.8) to Samba 3.5.1 without stomping on the bundled installation (3.0.25b-apple). This is something I've never attempted before, and though I've made progress, I'm stuck trying to figure out how to override Apple's version of Samba. So far,

I have used lokkit to setup iptables ( I have a big script that does this) basically just ports I want with "--port=https:tcp" etc... I wish to allow igmp and add igmp to the lokkit command line? How do I do that? I can add this to /etc/sysconfig/iptables: iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i eth1 -j ACCEPT iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i eth1 -p igmp -j ACCEPT iptables-save >

Hi I'm presently installing 2.2.8a on Mandrake 9.1 I'm a newbie to Linux as well as Samba, so it's been fun... When I first installed Linux I installed Samba from the discs (2.2.7a), but on reading up on the subject it became clear that I should give installing the source a go. My problem is this - I don't think I have rerouted all of the paths to usr/local/samba from what

Hello Everyone, I'm using Mandrake 10 and trying to learng Samba 3.0.2a. I compile the source and install it alright on my Mandrake linux (./configure, make, and make install).

I am wanting to pass arguments to lokkit to set up the iptables config file with an entry like this: ( i dont want to manually edit it - I want to do it automatically) iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 10000:20000 -j ACCEPT I have a small script file that has in it the ports I want enabled, like: ------------------- PORT_SSH="--port=22:tcp"

I'm using Suse 9.1 professional. I've got Samba *almost* up and running. But, I'm a newbie and need Swat to configure a few things. I've gone to /etc/services and made sure that I have the entry "swat 901/tcp" I have checked /etc/xinetd.d/swat and added "port = 901" and changed it to "disable = no" I have gone through the steps in the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Still having that problem with samba seemingly corrupting files, it seems to be the same files that are corrupted again and again, yet they are corrupted differently and sometimes not. I ran my md5 summer against one file ch02.pdf, and it almost contineously corrupts, I checked in a hex editor and there are some differences. Yet the problem is that

I guess you are in what I think of as "Newbie Hell." It sounds like you are learning linux like a lot of people, all by yourself. That's how I did it, and it is maddening and worse, very time consuming. The important thing is not to keep hitting your head against the brick wall over and over. So, what to do. First, I would join a linux email support group. I belong to a very good

Hi, Here is my situation : I have installed Samba 2.0.6 on my computer, which is running with Linux RedHat 6.0. When somebody tries to connect to this server, he's got a 'refused connection' message after he tried to my_IP@:139. I don't think the smb.conf is responsible because we have tried with the basic one, and it doesn't change anything. As I'm fresh in Linux (and

I've just tried setting up a Shrike (9) version of Redhat. Using the medium settings of lokkit, then adding manually accept commands for ports 137/udp 138/udp, 139/tcp and 445/tcp, I thought I should have been ready to go. This isn't the case, however. I know it's not the smb.conf settup because when I kill iptables samba works. When iptables IS running however, it will respond
