Hi everyone, I am using Samba 2.2.3a on a Redhat Linux 7.2 Intel server as a printserver on a W2K PDC network. I have a Xerox 440 printer, an HP 4500 PS and an HP 4550 PS printer using my Samba printserver. I am often receiving the following error message: ERROR: syntaxerror OFFENDING COMMAND: STACK: at which point printing stops and the printers start saying TIMEOUT. Sometimes I can reprint

Hi, i had have the same problem with winbindd try this "smbpasswd -j <Dmainname> -r <Windows PDC> -U Administrator%<Password>" Now you should read "Joined Domain <Domain>" Now set the Username and PAssword for winbindd to access the PDC I have used the admin account for this "wbinfo -A Administrator%<Password>" Now try again wbinfo

Is there an improved BackupExec Unix agent available that works with Samba? If not, can someone tell me how to work around the lack of the archive bit that Linux has? In particular, RedHat Linux 7.2 is the system I'm looking for help on. I found the following hints in an older version of this newsletter, Samba Digest, Vol. 3, Issue 34, sent March 21, 2003, that had this in it: Yes, we have

I am running RHL 7.2 with Samba 2.2.3a using a W2K DC for authentication via winbind. From the linux box, how can I find out which users are currently connected to my box via Samba? This would help a lot when I need to reboot the server or restart the samba service because of changes that need to immediately go into effect. Thanks Kevin Bramblett

Hello everyone, I upgraded my Samba server on my RHL 7.2 box from 2.2.3a to 2.2.7. Almost immediately afterwards, all of my admin users suddenly were unable to access the printers that were being shared by Samba. Any idea of what is wrong and how to fix it? The messages I'm getting are that I do not have enough rights. I am using a Windows 2000 Server PDC and a lot of Windows XP Pro, and

I tried to setup samba to print to a win95 box and I was using lpd from RH7.3 After trying everything I found Cups and looked at the docs and it prints great to the win95 Local Printer. Thanks for your help -- Ron Bramblett Sys Admin Fuller Brush Company

Hello everyone, I need to setup some directories (in RHL 7.2 running Samba 2.2.3a w/ W2K PDC) to allow multiple groups, each of which has different permissions. If this can be done on the Linux side, this would be preferred, but if it has to be done in Samba, any help in understanding how to make this happen is appreciated. I know Windows NT/W2K allows multiple groups and I would think Linux

Hi, Can someone tell me if Samba can limit users to certain amounts of space on specified shares? If so, where would I go to find out how to implement it? I have the following setup: RHL 7.2, Samba 2.2.3a using a Windows 2000 PDC with Winbind. I want to be able to set a limit for each user on certain folders/shares on the Linux box that they are accessing from Windows systems. Thanks, Kevin

You must have an account to gain access to the NT server. Your

but I don't understand what to change and where to change it and how to change it, yet. Any documentation available specifically for rhl 7.2 and samba 2.2.3a would be especially welcome.

Can anyone tell me how I can do a multiple level user share? What I'm having trouble configuring is a share that allows all users to use the first directory of the share, and then in subdirectories of the first directory only allow specified users access. I can't find anything similar in any docs on the internet nor in the O'Reilly Using Samba book. Thanks. Kevin

I was under the impression that this is a good list. But maybe that isn't the case. I have asked multiple questions and have done tons of research before hand and tried to be as specific as possible. So far I haven't received any answers. All I wanted was information on getting a NT server to accecpt connections from UNIX. The documentation is to clumsy and very hard to read. The

Hello everyone, I am having a problem getting Windows XP clients to print to a Xerox DataCenter 440 using Samba as the print server running on Red Hat Linux 7.2. I have installed the driver once and it worked fine. I then tried to add a second XP client, and while it appears to install and work, nothing comes out of the printer. It even seems to disappear at the print server. Any ideas how I

Hello, I have a question about samba and printing. I am running Linux RedHat 7.3 and installed the Samba from the install CD. (Samba 2.2.3a) I have a "Using Samba" Book from O'Reilly, it talks about Samba 2.0.5a, but I was hoping that somethings would be the same. On the RH Box I have a printer (actually it is on the network) but it is in the printcap file. It is a IBM Network

Hello, I have just downloaded Samba 2.2.7.a and I have tried to set it up on AIX 4.3.3 and am not having luck. Last week I installed samba on my linux machine and it works pretty well. The boss asked on Friday if I could set it up on my AIX machine. I have samba installed in /usr/local/samba. After running /usr/local/samba/smbd -D and /usr/local/samba/nmbd -D I can do this ps -aef |

Hello everyone, I am having a problem printing to a Xerox Document Centre 440 ST from XP pro Clients thru my RedHat Linux 7.2 server running Samba 2.2.3a. The XP Clients connect successfully to the printer queue, sends the file, but nothing comes out of the printer. At least for most XP Clients. I have one PC that does print, but that person is also an admin on the Linux box. I know the PCs

Dear all, I'm trying to make winbindd working without much success. I would like to set my linux box as a samba PDC and as winbindd host with some win2k workstations. I'm using mdk 8.1 and have installed the corresponding rpms (samba-2.2.2-6 by cooker). I followed howto and samba doc to set the pdc and it works. Following winbindd doc I have to used "smbpasswd -L -j IUTINFO -U
