Hello, System: Solaris 8/9 Samba: 3.02 and 3.06 We have problems with accessing files (from Windows XP) on a samba server that are mounted over nfs (on the server). Some users have symlinks in their home directories to nfs resources. When they try to copy file located in nfs the client simply hangs. To make the thing even stranger: Sometimes it also works (after restarting the samba server

Hello, I try to use Samba as a PDC. I have a old Windows 4.0 PDC and I want to get the users and the groups from the PDC. I joined the domain and get the users and groups with "net rpc vampire". The users and the groups were written in local user- and group-database, but the relation between the users and groups were lost, in the groups were no users. A short message from the

Hi folks, This is probably a stupidly simple question, but its got me stumped. I just installed the latest MDK package for wine (wine-20031118-mdk.i586) to update the one that shipped with MDK 9.2 (wine-20030813-1mdk.i586). Now, when I try and run wine I get wine: error while loading shared libraries: libwine.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory libwine.so.1 is in

Ive just discovered that my previous email is wrong - the password sync does in fact work under Solaris fine. What is happening however is that when I create a new account, and call smbpasswd $user as root, it only updates the SMB password and not the Unix password as well. I though I could change my call to /bin/passwd in my new user creation scrip with /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd -a, but as

Mates, In following chapter 35 "How to Compile Samba" I have looked at ./configure --help and I have a few questions. Originally I installed 2.0.9 via RPM, and of course there are no longer RPMs for mdk 7.2. On 7.2, smbd and nmbd are installed in /usr/sbin. The docs are in /usr/share/doc/samba-2.0.9. I don't know where the rest of the pieces of the puzzle were scattered by

Dear Listmembers, I am using a SPARC ULTRA 60 / running SuSE sparc linux 7.3 as server for our M$-Network. I recently installed samba-2.2.8a from SuSE (compiled src-rpm), since then I am facing problems when attaching to the server for certain users given specific conditions. When saying reconnect at login, the reconnect at login fails, whereas the connect during normal operation (by using

I have been using (actually inheareted the system) a file for the Samba password database using since something during the 2.0 erra. New accounts have been successfully added and users are apparently logging in ok. After installing 3.0.6 I am seeing these things in my log (log level=3). mod_smbfilepwd_entry: Using old smbpasswd format. This is no longer supported.! 1. What is the

I have a Sparc Ultra-2 running Solaris 2.7 and Samba version 2.0.5 Most of the time everything works fine, Win95 & WinNT users connect to Samba shares and work. Occasionally, users report not being able to view the Samba server in which case I have them map a drive manually or do a "find computer". There are times when this does not work. I take a look at the logs

Dear samba-users We are experiencing some rather long logon times using SAMBA 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze + Windows 7 and while trying to find out why we raised the loglevel to 5 resulting in a rather large logfile. But this did give us a hint as to why we experience so long logon times. It seems that samba is going through the whole user-database with all usernames and machine-accounts. Eventually

I have been (unsuccessfully) trying to get this up and running for the past few days. I have successfully setup samba itself NUMEROUS times but this winbind stuff has me stumped. I have built a fresh box for this server using Turbo Linux server 6.5 and samba 2.2.2. I have followed all the docs and man pages that i could find. 1. I have samba compiled (using --with-winbind --with-pam) and

I'm running FreeBSD 4.4, with Samba 2.2.2 freshly installed, with the FreeBSD Ports package to install files in correct places. I've a Win2k system tring to join the domain "FREESIDE" It will authenticate ok from the win2k command line. "net use x: \\crypton\homes /USER:FREESIDE\jerry" It seems to work ok during the first part of joining a domain, i.e. password

Hello Everybody, I hope everybody is doing well and that you can help me out as I am approaching my wit's end. I am running a Citrix server on a Windows 2000 SP 3 server. One of my published applications on this server needs to access samba for multiple users. So basically every user who logs on to the Citrix server needs to have access to their home directory on our Unix server.

I've to migrate a NT4 PDC to an samba PDC (running samba 3.0.0beta2 on a debian/GNU/linux box). Samba is already setup and working as a BDC. When I try to perform: net rpc vampire -S PDC all existing userSIDs are put into samba's 'passwd.tdb'. The problem is now, how to get a working userSID <-> UID mapping: The existing userSID have RID parts in the range of

Dear list subscribers, Recently I upgraded my samba version from 2.0.5 to 3.0.8-2. The setup I use is basically very simple: a W 98 box should be able to access some disk-shares and a printed, connected to a Linux box, running Debian's sarge distribution. Accessing the disks is no problem, but the printer can't be accessed any more. My log.smbd logfile shows lines suggesting
