Hi all, I am having a real bizarre problem with Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8. I have set up the smb.conf to share all user's home folders, and want to ensure that all dot files are visible. The problem I am having is that the dot files all appear except for one specific one (which happens to be the exact file that is needed!). I can see it when I telnet, but not using Samba. The dot file is a

Since everyone seems to only post problems to this list, I thought that I would try and post a number of solutions at once. This is my working samba configuration file (minus key indentyfying information). It may not be perfect, but it is as close as I have been able to get it to perfect, and that is after working with samba for a few years. This configuration has my server setup as a PDC (with

I have tried recently to link up two computers over the network using my machine which is win2000 and our Redhat Linux server 7.2 using samba v 2.2. When I browse the network I can see the approprate workgroup which I have named 'Linux' but the workgroup appears to have nothing available inside it. That is no icon, basically no contents. I am at a dead end, can anyone help me out? Here is

We are running the samba server on RH9 and use win98 and 2000 clients. We ran into two problems up to now, both related to printing. We have two win98 machines with printers (in two parts of the building). We want to have all the print jobs from other machines to go through the server before they are printed on these machines. First, we cannot not force the Win2000 machine to send anyting but the

I have Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8 acting as a PDC. I have written a script that checks to see if a user is already logged in on the PDC and if so, sends the user a message (via the SMB message stuff) telling them they need to log off. I run this script using "preexec close" under the netlogon share. So, the user authenticates against the PDC, but then gets a desktop that is mostly

Hello all, I want to set up a share for a project (enseign) First thing I did is to create a group for that project (with smbldap-groupadd) and add project members to that group. Then I created a test_smb directory on my linux server with the following access rights: drwxrwx--- 2 gbayard enseign 4096 avr 29 15:03 /test_smb Note: the idea is that only group members should be able to

I've got a strange problem with certain Active Directory user accounts that are members of more than 32 groups. It seems that Samba (or winbind?) completely ignores extended groups if it crosses over 32 groups. This seems to be a Samba specific issue; * When the AD user is logs in via ssh, it can perform writes to the resource; the same user browsing via Samba will get an "Access

Hello, So I just setup samba and swat on one machine here in my office. I can see the work group that this machine has created from all my windows based machines and I can see my windows domain from the linux box.
