similar to: smbfs Unicode patch for 2.4.x kernel

I periodically see smbfs questions get asked on this list, and they usually get one of two responses: 1. smbfs is a kernel module; this list is not the appropriate place to be asking smbfs questions. 2. You should be using cifs instead. (Please let me know if either if these is incorrect.) I was surprised to see, however, that the smbmount / mount.smbfs manpage makes no mention of cifs as being

Vlad. I still got the same problem - 'ls | wc -l' returned incorretc numbers. I installed the following patches with the sequence vs. the kerner 2.4.18: 1. 00-smbfs-2.4.18-codepage.patch.gz 2. 01-smbfs-2.4.18-lfs.patch.gz 3. 02-smbfs-2.4.18-unicode.patch.gz 4. smbfs-2.4.19-pre9-readdir.patch After installed patches, I ran 'make modules' and so on. Any more

This was working a couple of weeks ago, but it's broken now. When I issue a command like 'mount -t smbfs //server/share /mount/point' I get an error that says " mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //mrbig/grego$, or too many mounted file systems " However, when I issue the command 'smbmount //server/share /mount/point/ it works just fine.

'lo all Im wondering if anyone is getting the same problem with smbfs as i am with the 2.2.x kernels when i try to smbmount a share i get the following on the screen "SMBFS: need mount version 6" and also on the telnet shell or actual shell "mount error: Invalid argument Please look at smbmount's manual page...." the mans have nothing i revert back to 2.0.x and it

Hi, i've mounted a WinNT4 share with smbmount 2.0.5a (Linux 2.2.13). All works fine: authentification via username & domain, even file creation, but somehow i get an error when i'm trying to create a file link with "ln" (equaly soft- or hard link): "ln: cannot create symbolic link: Operation not permitted." I've set the create modes and masks to 777 but it

Since Urban Widmark was not active for some time, and I didn't have any success trying to reach him, it seems we need a new maintainer for the smb filesystem in the Linux kernel. Is there anyone who both feels qualified and wants to become the new maintainer? cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness. There had

Has anyone else seen these? smb_proc_readdir_long: name=, entries=117, rcls=1, err=123 smb_refill_dircache: readdir failed, result=-2 I get them when trying to read a particular directory from a NT4 SP4 (?) server. % /bin/ls -alF foo total 0 % The directory in question has 718 files, all with rather long names.

Hello all. Our system consists of two linux machines, each running Red Hat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.9-34), using SMB to mount multiple shares hosted by a Windows 2000 Advance Server. smbclient from Samba 2.2.5 is used to do the actual mounting. Over the weekend, a number of files on these SMBFS shares were created with incorrect timestamps (modification times). In some cases, the timestamps were off by

I have a problem with smbmount. I have a linux server running E-Smith (or Mitel SME server as it is now) which is basically a cut down version of RedHat 7.0 (running Kernel 2.2.19-7.0.8smp). Samba version is 2.0.10. We are connecting to an NT server (service pack 3 - I must upgrade that sometime soon). We have quite a good tapedrive and backup software (3rd party) on the E-Smith server, whereas

Hi people,

Hi list! I'm currently trying to get a program called Polydoc to run under wine. It is a kind of database app, for text databases. For some reason it uses many ActiveX controls. So far all seems to be Ms "standard" controls. But the program will not run. Anyone have a tip? I'm going to test with a native ole32.dll among things. Cheers, -- Martin Widmark AB TakeIT

I need to mount a samba share as mode 777, so all users can read/write/delete/create. I have this as fstab entry //host/public /mnt/home smbfs auto,uid=user,umask=000,defaults,username=Perkins,password= see, i've had to put uid=user just to get it owned by user user, so i could edit files i put mode=777, but it does nothing. i want to let all users read/write/create/delete

This is a problem I get with various versions of Samba, up to and including 2.0.7. (The version shipped with Debian.) I have an NT machine (4.0, service-pack 3 using NTFS) exporting a filesystem to Linux through smbmount. Specific directories are not browsable. By that I mean that "ls *" comes up blank, however if you know the filename, "ls foo.txt" will still find the

I have been pulling my hairs out about this for a while now. Running the latest version of SuSE with all patches applied, I have my machine joined to the domain no problem. But when I go to use mount -t smbfs I get this error.

All, I have been working on a component that is included with samba called SMBSH. The binary allows you to automount your NT shares by accessing your profile . I have been working on this for the last few days and have been unsuccesful at getting it work. Now I am not much of a programmer, but I did my best to try and troubleshoot this. However it just does not want to work in Linux. I
