I am trying to set up a basic Samba server and configure it so that folders under a share cannot be deleted accidentally by a user. The ideal scenario would be to have the top-level folders under the share non-deleteable, but folders and files are able to be created under it. I cannot find any easy way of doing this directly, but thought that the use of the 'veto' option would work

Hi, I am trying to access folders on a windows system on a linux system using the command, smbmount '//a.b.c.d/CCViews/abcd/abcd_Linux_dev' '/root/pqrs/LinuxDev' -o username=abcd/<domain>,uid=abcd,gid=abcd This prompts for a password and I give the correct domain password here. It gives me the error: 21896: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an

My WXPP PC cannot login to the Samba server although the Win2K and W9x PC's can. The XPP system has joined the domain, but when I rebooted the PC and tried logging in via the domain it complained about not having permission or an account which I've verified and have redone several times, but still I cannot login. Anyone have any information on how to fix this. --

Hi, I am posting this on the list after 2 weeks of frustrating efforts to get my XP home machine to talk to the Samba server on my SuSE 9.2 Linux box. Described below is the crux of the problem. When I do an smbclient on the Linux box I can see the Windows machine listed. However, when I do a net view on the Windows XP Home machine I do not see the Samba box. Also, I get a System 1 error on

Dear List, we are currently using Samba 3.0.4 (rpm from Sernet - http://ftp.sernet.de/pub/samba/) on SuSE 8.2 with XP SP2-clients. The problem is: When we try to upgrade to Samba 3.0.7, the clients can't load the users profile, the error message says, that it can't find the path (though it works well for 3.0.4). Here is a snippet of the error messages in log.smb with log level 4:

Luke Leighton (lkcl) has brought up his arguments about control of Samba before. In October 2000 they resulted in the creation of a new Samba code branch, samba-tng, which Luke and others who agreed with his direction were free to do with as they will. Samba-tng still exists, and we in the Samba Team still wish it well, but what we can't continue to put up with is Luke still rehashing the

Hello list :) I am having issues setting the "read-only" flag via Windows Explorer on my AIX Samba share and I was hoping someone out there would be able to point me into the right direction to solving this issue... I have on my AIX 7.1 system installed Samba 3.6.24 and configured, joined to our Windows domain successfully. The samba binaries I got from perzl.org/aix In my smb.conf I

Hi List, I have an appliance ("the client") which mounts a CIFS share from a Samba server - the Samba server usually runs on an Ubuntu system. Within the client, the root user executes a mount command like this: mount.cifs \\UBUNTUSERVER\archive /tmp/Default \ -o noserverino,user='someuser',pass='somepassword',uid='50',gid='7' That uid/gid pair

Not sure what's going on here, but it's got to be a permissions thing it would seem. Background: working ADS. Samba 3.5.6 atop Freebsd 8.1 as domain member When I attempt to load drivers with Windows XP Pro (32bit), everything is fine. I can load either x32 drivers or x64 drivers. The same cannot be said for Windows 7. I cannot correctly load drivers with Windows 7, and here is a

Hi, I've a samba-3.0.2a running perfectly on redhat-8. Filesystem is EXT3 with ACL support. I can't upgrade the PDC to 3.0.3 or 3.0.4, because shares are only read-only. In 3.0.3 only home share and temp share are writable. All other shares are in read-only mode. Users can see the files/directories, but can't save anything or create new items. When trying to create a new item -

I'm trying to get Samba 3.0.28 to work as an MS Dfs root providing a share that links home directories to the actual servers they reside on. Unfortunately, when I access the share from a Windows XP client, and try to open one of the directories, the client gives an error that it "refers to a location that is unavailable". I've done a lot of searching, and found a number of

Hello everybody, i upgraded last week a samba installation from version 3.0.9 to version 3.0.14a using the rpms from ftp.sernet.de (sles9-i386 tree). I just installed the rpms as usual with the rpm -e and rpm -i and everything seems to be fine. But there was no browsing possible. due to a small timeslot i had to downgrade to 3.0.9 then which worked very fine. the problem is that i have to find

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

Hello, I'm running Samba 3.6.6-1 on my x64 Arch Linux installation. I recently decided to have my samba share support NTFS's Alternate Data Streams by using streams_xattr or streams_depot. With streams_xattr I discovered that if I copy a file having an ADS from a win7 box, on the linux console, I can see the ADS as an xattr attached to the file. However when I copy the file back to my

Hi list, I am trying to track down a printer-related problem. The most important symptom is a smbd process using almost all memory on my machine (up to 800 MB, at the specific case of which I've posted the logs.) At some point the VM will kill the smbd process, freeing the memory. Apart from this, samba keeps on running fine. Investigation of a level 3 debug log of this process has shown
