Hi, I have a Samba print share set up, with a "print command" specified that just cats the file to /dev/ulpt0. This share is accessed by the guest Samba account, which I have set to be the 'smbguest' username. I can manually run the print command as root, and the file prints. I can manually run the print command as 'smbguest' (through sudo) and the file prints.

I am really new to configuring and maintaining samba, and have what I belive should be a quick question. I have recently installed Samba 2.2.2 on a Solaris 8 server. I need to make a directory on the samba server accessable by a small group of people here at work. The users who will be connecting to the samba share do not have accounts on the samba server. The are coming from Windows 2K boxes

I have a samba server version 2.2.7a-8.9.0 running on RedHat 9.0. It is acting as a domain controller. I have some win2k clients logging in to this domain and mapping home shares, shared drives, etc. The network the servers are on is 1000Mb and the client networks are all 100Mb. The client networks are linked via 1000Mb uplink. The problem I'm having is that when a user copies a fair

I'm having some kind of trouble mapping all users in an ADS group to a Unix id. I'm running Samba 3.0.7 on Solaris 9 as a member of a Windows 2000 ADS Domain. Here's my smb.conf: ******************************************************************************************************** [global] workgroup = ADSDOM realm = ADSDOM.MY.COM server string = Samba

Hey, I worked for days on this, and I want to share the solution I stubled across. I got this error message from my wife XP laptop: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found. Please try again later. If this message continues to appear, contact your system administrator for

Hi, I am playing around with automatic printer driver download to Windows 2000 clients from Samba 2.2.8a-1 which doesn't seem to work. Whenever I right-click on the printer and say "connect", it displays: The server on which the printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed..... Here is my smb.conf file: [Global] workgroup = DEBIAN_FANS load printers = yes

hi, i am at time trying to setup up a samba pdc as replacement for a windows nt pdc (thats the good message). I've already a running openldap 2.1.4-86 with ou's people, groups and computers. I've also already added users to it (with a modifiied version of the migration tools). Also working is pam_ldap and nss_ldap (i can login in into my unix machine with the ldap users - and i can

Hey, everyone. I'm running Samba 2.2.8a on a Debian Linux 3.0 box and for some reason, when someone tries to delete something they can't, it does give them the access denied message the first time. When they try to do it again, no message appears and it seems to be deleted (it disappears from the list), but when they refresh the list, it appears again. My file system is as follows

Hey, I had a problem with rebooting XP and joining the samba domain, which was controlled by my gentoo linux box. I worked for days for a solution, and found it....!!!! The problem was that I could join the domain fine, but had to reboot, and then found i was rejected from joining then. It appeared like the domain was invisible to the XP box. I pulled my hair out, scoured the web

I am new to Samba, but not to Linux. I hope someone here can point me in the right direction. I have installed Samba and it appears to be working, at least as far as I have tested it. However, I have hit a snag in my testing. I have searched Google for several hours but I have not found a solution. On a Linux machine (named "annwn") running Fedora Core 6, I have set up a share, using

Hello list, could somebody please point me to the information (tutorial) how to configure this properly, or where is the problem? I need to access the share without authentication (it's an isolated home network)... It used to work on FC3 but I can't figure it out on FC6 :-( By the way, there's a typo in the original post: the windows machine is W98 not 95. thanks Marek --- Marc

Hi all, In continuing of previous problems, I've noticed some potential problems with force user / force group and Windows XP Professional. I'm not exactly sure why or how, but it appears that XP picks up the fact that it's being connected as the forced user (smbguest), and continues trying to authenticate to other services/shares as that user (smbugest). I'm not sure if this

Hi group, now after 6 hours non-stop trying to solve this issue I decided to contact the list! I actually just want to mount an samba share as guest via "mount -t cifs ...", but I alway get a "mount error 13 = Permission denied". I tried the following (and many else) mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/ebooks /mnt/ebooks -o guest mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/ebooks /mnt/ebooks -o

Hello all I need some help understanding what is failing with my Samba installation. I compiled Samba 2.0.6 on a Sparc Ultra-II Solaris 2.6, using GCC version 2.8.1. I have read in some of the docs that there may be some support for shadow passwords but could not find a definition regarding shadow in any of the compile scripts. The SMB and NMB processes are running as deamons. I am unable

We're *****very happy***** samba users in an environment where: 3 HP-UX 10.20 9000/700 ws act as servers for about 35 Win95/NT clients. Just upgraded to 2-0-5a: much performance for clients with very very low ws load. Great. There is one ws acting as main server offering disks via NFS to the other two, and there is a central samba configuration area where we use the machine name to

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with Samba, trying to make it work on CentOS 7. Before that, I ran Samba successfully in a mixed environment with Slackware64 14.1 on the server and Slackware/Windows Seven on the client side. I have three sandbox machines running CentOS 7. One has a minimal install with only the samba and samba-client packages. Just to be on the safe side for fiddling,
