Hello! I'm running Samba 2.2.8a on top of a ext3 filesystem with ACLs enabled. (kernel 2.4.20-gentoo-r2) With ACLs disabled (i.e., mount /dev/hdd1 /mnt/floppy (no -o ACL)), the Security box under windows 2000 works like I want it to with respect to the Everyone group; If I want the Linux permissions to be, say, 770 (rwxrwx---), I can select everyone and hit "Remove." The everyone

I've got an aggravating problem as described in the subject line above. I have a small home network with a Linux box running Samba and acting as both local and domain master browser and WINS server. Also on the network are a desktop PC (Dell 1.4 GHz P4) running Windows 2000 Professional and a laptop running Windows XP Professional. The problem occurs when I try to copy a file over 1 MB

Question regarding file permissions on Samba 3.0.22: Using a Windows XP client when I attempt to change the file permissions of a directory (or any single file for that matter) once I click the 'OK' button the properties window closes as expected, but upon opening the security permissions tab again I notice the permissions have revented back to how they were beforehand. If I click

Hallo, I have samba 3.04 on Solaris 9 platform with smb.conf use client driver = No default devmode = No default case = lower case sensitive = No preserve case = Yes short preserve case = No mangle case = No mangling char = ~ hide dot files = Yes hide special files = No hide unreadable = No hide unwriteable files = No

Running Gentoo linux samba-3.0.23a I've used samba for quite some time but never have had to delve into its inner workings... Its always just worked. Recently I'm finding that when accessing linux shares from a winxp machine, I have read access, but no write. Far as I know the unix to samba user mappings as set correctly (and as they have been for some time) Near as I can tell the

Hello mailinglist, I have a strange problem, which occurs sometimes on some WinXP clients. It is not 100% reproducable for me, but it returns regular. The problem is, that somehow a user can't delete a directory. All files in the directory will be removed successfully, but the directory itself not. Deleting with the Explorer or over the cmd-console returns in the same result. First the

Greetings, I am running 2.2.7a as a domain controller on RH 8.0 When I attempt to create a folder I get the following "warning" "You may not be able to access the files created in the folder .... Do you want to continue?" If I continue everything goes file (the folder is created and I can access it). I find a file in there called TESTDIR.TMP. I thought it may have been a

I have an issue with mac os x 2.5.6 who is trying to put a file on a samba share. Samba (3.0.28) is running on a CentOS 5.2 (2.6.18-92.1.13.el5). I put a file "users.txt" as user "carlo.maesen" and have the following Mac-error: "You cannot copy some of these items to the destination because their names are too long or contain invalid characters for the destination. Do

I've attempted to do the same using Win2k's APW. At first it looks like it's going to work, but at the very last part it gives an access denied error. It gives the errors AFTER it copies all the files to the server... Here's the log.spleen (my win2k is spleen): unix_clean_name [W32X86/PSCRIPT.NTF] [2003/08/08 16:46:05, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(580) unix_clean_name

Samba is mapping my home directory to a share called "" (0x03) instead of "paul" ... what's the deal here? I didn't change anything from 2.2.3a.

Hi all, I've included copies of the relavent files below. I'm having a bit of a problem with Samba in that when I try to access files on its shared resources, I can browse to the shares fine, but the moment I try to open a file, the client's file browser hangs. I've verified that this is a problem on both my Mac (OS X 10.3.4), my Windows XP SP2 and WIndows XP SP1 machines. I'm

<Long Post, sorry!> Folks, I have a really nasty problem preventing me from migrating a bunch of NetWare 5 servers to Samba--attempts to copy large (> 2MB+) files to any samba share results in an error. To clarify what I mean by "error": 1. I attempt to copy, using explorer, a 2MB+ file to any samba share. 2. A 30 second or so pause occurs (copying this file to any other

Howdy. I'm running samba-3.0.2-2 (from the binaries on samba.org) on a RedHat 9 box with kernel 2.4.20-28.9. I can access shares from my Windows XP Home box, but the performance isn't very good. When I looked into this, I discovered that apparently the connections are getting dropped, over and over again, which causes a lot more work, I'm sure. Here's a snippet from my main

Helpp! :) We didn't catch this in testing and now it's killing me in production! I'm getting stuck with my fresh build of Samba 3.6.10. It isn't honoring groups specified in the valid users clause of the share configuration. I'm running in security = SHARE mode, and user authentication is working just fine. Even if I specify individual users on the valid users = line, it

Hello, I do have a very strange behavior. For some reason, I only observe this, when I access a samba share through an openvpn tunnel. (1) objective have a share, have SECURITY USERS (to control access rights), but NULL PASSWORDS (authentication is fine enough by vpn). Find config files below. This is samba 3.3.2. Openvpn 2.1_rc11.

Hi, I try to create PDF files with an modified script from Buchan Milne and have some problems with the Jobname var %J. Because it is better for the users to find an file with an similar name as the original document I'm looking for a way to read out %J, cut some unnessasary stuff and use the rest as new file name. The problem is: In %J in some circumstances is not the complete Jobname as
