Hi, while using cups as a print system and sharing all the printers with samba to windows clients, is it possible to 'view' a newly created printer in the browse list without restarting smbd ? (samba 2.2.7) Holger

Hi there, I have been looking at a system which has the Intel ICH7 south bridge. Whenever I try to probe the SMBus on this system with 'smbmsg -p', I get a lot of status=41 timeout messages in dmesg from the ichsmb(4) driver. I have been given the addresses of the SMBus peripherals and have tried initiating reads to their register space directly using 'smbmsg', with the same

Hi. I have 2 PC's connected with 1GBit NIC's. When I transfer a file from my File-Server(Redhat9.0, 256 SD-RAM, 300MHz PII, RTL8169 NIC, 2x Western Digital WD200JB RAID 0) to my Windows-PC(AMD Athlon XP 1800+, 1024 MB DDR-RAM, WINXP PRO, RTL8169 NIC, 2x Western Digital WD080JB RAID 0) with Samba, i get Speeds around 8-9MB/sec. I think this is too low for an GBit Network, so i tested the

My problem appears to be too simple to be addressed in the documentation, being a linux-to-linux problem. This is a mixed home lan, but the majority of file sharing is done between three linux boxes. All three have a public directory, but the one on box1 is mainly used for file sharing. All of this worked well with our old Samba 2 setup, but has now gone to pieces. Two of the boxes are

Hi, I am well aware that the charset problem has been discussed many times over. But after two days of googling and testing, I did not make any progress. I am mounting Windows XP Pro shares with french filenames on a Linux. The linux is a 2.4.27 kernel with the following settings: CONFIG_SMB_FS=y CONFIG_SMB_NLS_DEFAULT=y CONFIG_SMB_NLS_REMOTE="UTF8" CONFIG_SMB_NLS=y CONFIG_NLS=y

Hello, i'm using samba 2.2.7 for printing with windows clients to cups. All users always have to press F5 to refresh the job list. Is this by design or a configuration error? Holger

Hello, FYI, i noticed that using write cache size = 131072 on a share, leads to corrupted files from some applications. Only one client is accessing the file. In particular with coreldraw this can be reproduced. Setup: Server: samba 3.0.4-SUSE Client: Windows XP Pro [raid1] comment = 1 path = /raid1 read only = No create mask = 0777 directory mask =

Hello, I haven't found anything useful googling around so I decided to ask here. I have a Linux server running Samba on 100Mbit/s ethernet. If I connect to it using WinXP, mount some share and download files from it it reaches about 9MB/s transfer rate. Using FTP gives even higher transfer rates. BUT when I use linux to connect to (linux!) server, mount shares and download files then

SAMBA 2.2.8A I am automounting a 6-in-1 smartmedia reader such as: /etc/auto..master /mnt/auto /etc/auto.misc --timeout=1 /etc/auto.misc carda -fstype=msdos,rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=000 :/dev/sda1 I am also making that a samba share: [card_a] comment = Removable Card Media path = /mnt/auto/carda browseable = yes public = no read only = no

I am using Samba for a file server and get a lag when accessing files across the network, I assume it is due to inactivity, because the first file I access takes the longest to access, and then other files I access immediatly after are much faster. If I do not access any files for a while I get the problem again. It all works well, but I would really like to get rid of this Lag when opening a

I can't use a ? (forward tick, accent acute) in a filename on a samba share. Is this an error or intention? If i copy a file with ? to the samba share the result will be, the tick will be converted to a capital Z with back and forward tick on it and the rest of the filename is dropped. samba 3.01rc1 [global] dos charset = CP850 unix charset = ISO8859-15 display charset = LOCALE [raid2]

Hi list! Is it possible to prevent Samba from modifying the changed time stamp? Now the time stamp is reset every time a file is accessed, even if there are no changes to it. I would just like it to show when the file was written to or changed, not accessed! Thanks!

Hello, My problem is the following : I have a Debian (testing distribution) on which I used to have Samba server v3.0.2a it worked perfectly with my other machine which is running Windows 2000. I recently made a global packages update on my Debian machine, which apparently changed the Samba server to 3.0.7 Since then, I have been absolutely unable to retrieve files from the debian server to the

Hello All, About 2 weeks ago I upgraded from debian woody to sarge. This included an upgrade from Samba2.2 -> Samba3.0. However since the upgrade I have problems using my Samba server from my XP (home) Laptop. The symptoms are basically "explorer" freezeing on most network browseing type actions. Or if I open a file (eg a movie). I'm pretty confident that I don't have a

Hello all, what is Excel doing while opening a file? There is no delay when opening the same file localy or on a windows 2000 server. But on the samba server it needs 10 seconds. But copying the same file (32K) has no delay at all. (With larger files things get worse, while coping a 60 MB file takes 8 seconds) Other mails mentioned recommended to disable oplocks, but this didn't change

Hi all,... ... currently I am trying to get hold of a strange error which is successfully keeping me from sleeping the last week. Basically, I am running a DebianGNU/Linux based machine with samba 3.0.0 as a backup server for an amount of Windows NT4 workstations. There is an old backup "framework" around here, basically a collection of .bat files on the workstations which at

Hello everybody, i have two questions concerning samba. 1st Topic - file times NTFS has three file times for each file, the create time, the change time and the access time. The create time will never be modified, the change time will be changed every time you save a file, the access time will be changed every time you access (read) a file. If i access a file on a samba share, the access

I'm new to this list, so feel free to update me on any rules that I seem not to be familiar with. I'm looking at some strange behavior on a _very_ barebones installation. I'd like to get some feedback on possible logical explanations. * What I'm seeing: The md5sum of all of my binaries in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin are changing exactly one hour after installation of CentOS-4.3.

I have finally managed to compile and install samba 1.9.7alpha5 with des, shadow passwords and PAM. I have a new problem now. my 95 clients when set to user level access control and try sharing something give this error. "You cannot view a list of users at this time. Please try again later." I belive this is because the rights on the file smbpasswd [the file containing the passwords]

Dear R-community, I am just conducting various mediation analyses with data from individual participants who are nested in teams. I found the ?sobel.lme? function to be pretty helpful when doing so. (A big thank you to Paul Bliese for his multilevel-package and the awesome manual!) Here?s the example from the Help-file: data(bh1996) library(nlme) #A small but significant indirect effect indicates
