I am new to this list, so excuse me if this is a duplicate question. I am trying to access a directory which is password protected for a username in /etc/passwd and shadow. Win 95 has no problems acessing the directories using windows logon name as name and asking passwd for the directory for that user name. When I upgraded to win 98, the directories became inaccesible. I checked

Hello to all; I'm looking for somebody who has tried powerbuilder 6-based apps in the newest versions of Wine (currently I'm using v0.9.57 in Debian Etch). Well, the situation is: I want to use a Sybase-based database management system, using Sql Anywhere 10 as the DB server and a powerbuilder-based app as the client. So I get the Anywhere 10 version for GNU/Linux, configure it and its

Hola. Tengo algún tipo de problema con las tildes, a la hora de trabajar en R o en RStudio, que no sé resolver. Intentando reproducir en dos PCs distintos, ambos con Windows 7, uno de los últimos ejercicios que ha publicado Carlos Gil Bellosta en su blog ( https://www.datanalytics.com/2016/06/20/6602-767-km-alrededor-de-espana-para-visitar-todas-sus-capitales-de-provincia/), me ocurre que al

Hello; I have a strange situation. About a year ago we upgraded to samba-3.0.10 from samba-2.28a and joined the samba server to an AD domain as a member server. The migration went smooth. Everything fell in place just right -- until a few weeks ago that is. A few weeks ago we aquired a new plotter, and while setting it up to be used, we encountered the first problem. We were not able

hello, with --stats, shouldn`t we differ between "number of files transferred" and "number of files failed" ? the problem is, that i have files which ALWAYS fail on transfer, and to check for "number of files failed"<=2 would be the best way for me to check if the overall transfer was ok. if i magaged to create a patch to adress this, would such patch be

Hola, Carlos. A mí también me resulta raro, porque no me pasa siempre. Es un poco aleatorio. Imagino que habrá alguna razón, y que el código de la página estará relacionado, claro, pero no consigo averiguar a qué se debe. Además las pruebas que hago me dejan todavía más perplejo. Esto Encoding(capitales) me dice que el encoding es "unknow", pero luego esto validUTF8(capitales) me

Hola, Carlos. Pues, efectivamente, me ha ayudado. Sobre la utilización de la función geocode con ciudades con tilde, me dio Carlos Gil Bellosta anteriormente la idea de utilizar iconv para transformar la cadena de búsqueda a UTF-8, y yo lo utilicé para intentar transformar el output de html_table sin resultado: capitales <- read_html("

We upgraded from Samba 3.0.24 to 3.0.25a over the weekend and rebooted all of our clients afterwards. Since then, some of our clients are randomly getting the following error: "Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied." Unmapping and mapping the network drive fixes the problem, but one

Greets to all. I was just wondering if mounting samba shares and microsoft dfs are too far apart conceptually to work together. (ie allow someone to mount a dfs root and magically get access to all those shares listed under dfs) I have noted in the samba mail archives that smbclient cannot act as a dfs client (and tested it for myself) Is it a case of "implement it for yourself if you

I've been reading through a lot of documentation and haven't found the answer to this question. I'd like to setup a DFS Root on a Win2K3 server with some Samba server shares participating as replica links. Is this possible? I've got the shares setup on the Samba servers and have no trouble accessing them from windows computers. I tried to setup the links on the Win2k3 server, but

Hello, we have a Samba 3.2.8 msdfs root server. From time to time the connection from a Windows 2003 SP2 system will fail with the message that the server name could not be found. On Windows XP it seems to work. On Windows we open the folder user1/folder/subfolder with the explorer. In the failure log I can't see anything about the subfolder. If I compare the samba log (debug level 10)

Hi I downloaded samba 3.3.12 and installed it in Aix6l with following configuration option: ./configure --without-libaddns --without-libsmbsharemodes --with-acl-support --without-ldap --without-utmp --with-libiconv=/usr --with-winbind. Now When I am trying to set host msdfs = yes ,and want to use MSDFS feature It doesn't show me any message but also it does not work. My conf file is

Hi, until now the users here did access the samba shares directly via \\server\share. The number of shares is rising and it should now be possible to access shares by the department they belong to. Thus the users need only one drive letter and not many in their windows explorer. To accomplish this I tried the msdfs approach and it's working very nicely. on serverA: share1 ->

Hi, - Server : Ubuntu server 11.04 - Samba 3.5.8 - (Likewise 6.0.0-2 if that can make sense... ? - Anyway : working fine; A.D. integration OK) - Client : windows XP SP3 When trying to use this brand new server as a DFS root, I'm facing an issue I can't solve: - Pointing to \\servername\dfsroot\linktootherserver I'm getting the error message "share refers to a location that is

Hi, I'm new on Samba... I'm trying to set a samba server with a DFS share. I have found this example: # The smb.conf file: [global] netbios name = SAMBA host msdfs = yes [dfs] path = /export/dfsroot msdfs root = yes then I must create some link into /export/dfsroot: root# cd /export/dfsroot root# chown root /export/dfsroot root# chmod 755 /export/dfsroot root# ln -s

Hi, After some experiment with MSDFS on Samba I have seen this problems and I don't know if this are caused by my possible wrong configuration or if are "feature" of MSDFS: -as described into the documentation I compiled a Samba version with --with-msdfs and this smb.conf (server 172.26.11.236). The configuration file is: [Global] host msdfs = yes [dfs] path = /mnt/disk

Hi, we use Samba 2.2.3a on Suse Linux (Kernel 2.4.18-4GB). There?s the following share defined: [av] comment = Arbeitsvorbereitung path = /home/group/av/samba force user = av browsable = no writeable = yes msdfs root = yes All users can create and modify files, but only clients with win2k can create new directorys. NT-Clients get the error "no such file or

Hello, my company recently changed the stucture of some shares (Win2000). Since then, we are not able to access these shares from Linux/Solaris anymore. I tried smbmount and smbclient and can access the top-level directory of the share and see the directory structure, but I can't see any data inside these directories. A few days ago, someone told me that msdfs is used for the new structure

Hi all, First, I'm no longer on the list, so please CC me if you reply to the group. I've hunted around, but I cannot find anything about this. The --with-msdfs compile flag is not present in ./configure --help. Is dfs built now by default? OR - is it no longer supported?

Greetings list, I've looked high and low, and cannot find an instance of this particular situation, and thought I might try leveraging the power of the collective hive mind of the user community to solve this problem. My setup is likely not at all common. I've created a bunch of netbios aliases on a single linux box. Each alias has the same name as a particular windows group, like hr
