similar to: Windows 98 can't print to Samba printer

Hi, I have set up a Fedora Core 3 machine with Samba 3.0.9 to act as a PDC file and print server. Everything works fine but I am having problems adding new machine accounts. When I try to add them manually using "/usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -d /dev/null -c "Spruce" -s /bin/false SPRUCE$", I get the error message: "invalid user name 'SPRUCE$'". I can add

We have been using SAMBA for file/print servers and domain controllers in Windows networks for several years. At one site, we have intermittent problems in which the connection to the SAMBA server appears to die: i.e., no one can connect to the share, and the Windows clients (Terminal Servers and workstations) apparently keep re-trying to connect which ultimately locks up those clients.

I'm running FC3 with its bundled samba 3.0.11-fc3, and I'm trying to update to 3.0.14a. I've downloaded the rpms from samba.org, and (I think) I've backed up the original samba installation--/etc/samba--and I've stopped smb (I had to kill the smbd and nmbd processes; "/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb stop" didn't work). I've also withdrawn (make uninstall) an

Hi, I'm trying to get a Samba (version 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3) to play with some WinXP boxes. I'm using WORKGROUPS, not DOMAIN. The server is running under Fedora Core 3. And I'm following the troubleshooting chapter in the O'Reilly book, Chapter 9. I cannot browse the shares from my WinXP machine. I CAN browse and access shares okay as a client on the Samba server machine. I

Hi, I've used Samba several years without any problems. Last week I added a new disk to my system, and Samba started to behave very strange. It's slow in terms of establish a connection and time to list directories. I've tried to resolve the problem without success. No other daemon has problems, both ftp and http works fine as well as internal communication. Below I've attached

Hi, I am using Fedora Core 3 as a server for both Unix (Solaris and HPUX) and Windows Xp clients. The Unix clients view the files through an NFS v3 share, and windows client use samba (3.0.8-0.pre1.3). When looking at a directory from the server, or from a Unix client, I can see 132 files. However, from the Windows client, I can only see 65 files. There appear to be nothing special about the

Hi there, I switched servers yesterday. The old server was running 2.2.7a-1 on RedHat 8.0. The new server is 3.0.8-0.pre1.3 on Fedora Core 3. I did the migration by copying the following: /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/shadow /etc/samba/* I then copied /home and fixed all the permissions on stuff. I then started up samba on the new server, and unplugged the old one. Most everything went

I'm backing up a bunch of Windows machines onto a linux box (FC3, Samba 3.0.8-0.pre1.3) and it works great... UNLESS some idiot disconnects or shuts down his computer while I'm running the backup, and then my rsync command hangs while trying to copy the files from that computer's smbmounted drive to the server. Isn't there some sort of way to soft mount the samba share or

Very simple setup. We have a NT4 pdc and some windows boxes. We have a large raid running on linux that we use samba to share to the rest of the network. 2.2.4 works great, 3.0 doesn't using the same smb.conf. I'm sure there are some things that have changed but even trying to take the examples on the site and mod them to fit my case doesn't work either. The linux/samba box name is

We're running Fedora Core and Samba-3.0.8-0.pre1.3 and we're authenticating our Windows XP users against Active Directory running on Windows 2003. Everything works fine! But now we're trying to secure and harden our WinXP machines and now when any user logged into a secured WinXP they get the errormessage "The account is not authorized to log in from this station". I browsed

I am unable to properly view ISO8859-15 characters (typicaly characters with accent such as ?, ?, ?...) from filenames on a samba server using fedora core 3. After spending hours on it, I have been unable to find a solution. Any help from you would be greatly appreciated. Here is the description of my configuration: I have 3 machines running: - one server with fc3 - one PC "PC1" with

I think I have narrowed this down even further. I have been working through getting rid of error messages in the logs, and I have updated Samba to 3.4.3. This might have fixed the issue, and I won't know for some time, but I can still see the following error appearing in the logs, which seems to line up with the core issue of machine trust accounts expiring.

I have our Samba server mostly working, however it will not allow me to change the password on the client desktop or via USRMGR. The error message we are getting is "the system cannot change your password now because the domain TOPC is not available". USRMGR reports "Could no find domain controller for this domain" Everything is authenticating properly. Any ideas? I'm

I''m trying to do a find that includes a join. It has to be a find because I''m using the results for a Pagination, so I need to limit my query to the number of results I want to display per page.

Hi, There are many companies. Each company has many departments. Each department has many employees. The following find_by_sql method seems awful. What is the best way to get all the employees of a company? class Company < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :departments def employees Employee.find_by_sql("SELECT employees.* FROM companies, departments, employees

I have a controller that gets a list of employees (which has an "include => [:salaries, :incentives, :billablegoals, :reviews]"). I then need it to iterate through each employee and determine their current active goal based on the "effective date." After playing around with it a bunch, I got the following to work. Only problem is that if I remove the "@employees.each {

Hello, *Background:* The RFC 5574 suggests the RTP payload format for the speex codec. The payload formation is straight forward; the encoded frames are to be concatenated one after another. Once we have appended desired number of frames, we have to pad the stream with 01111 sort of sequence to ensure that payload ends on a octet boundary. *Observation:* I am using the speex encoder at 2150 Kbps
