Mates, The saga continues, but THANK GOD 'make revert' WORKS. Here is my problem. I am trying to compile 3.0.7 from source and install it on my Mandrake 7.2 box. The gcc compiler is 2.95.3. Here is what I have done: [stop samba] # ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-smbmount # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start Here is what I get: [root@Nemesis david]# tail

POSTED TO THE LIST W/O ATTACHMENTS -------- Jerry, I am sending this to you directly because it contains the tcpdump information in addition to the samba logs just in case there is sensitive information contained in the files. What is happening is that samba 3.0.25c, after first running smoothly, is becoming very "chatty" across our LAN. I don't know why, but with no files or

Hello. I need to allow one of my users to add & delete shares on my Samba server through the 'server manager' applet on his client . This same user also writes some files to the same Samba server. I don't want the files that he writes to be owned/written by 'root' . The way I understand the 'add share command' currently, this is not possible. Am I missing

Mates, In following chapter 35 "How to Compile Samba" I have looked at ./configure --help and I have a few questions. Originally I installed 2.0.9 via RPM, and of course there are no longer RPMs for mdk 7.2. On 7.2, smbd and nmbd are installed in /usr/sbin. The docs are in /usr/share/doc/samba-2.0.9. I don't know where the rest of the pieces of the puzzle were scattered by

Hi, I have somewhat successfully got Samba working where as users can map the drives to their win2k/xp workstations and wrote to the folders they are given permissions to. They can write to the folder, delete folders, write files, delete files, view the file listing, however, they can't open files. For instance, if there is a word document, they can't just double click on the share and

Can someone verify that testparm in 3.0.7 always reports the [printers] share as browseable = no ? I think this is a bug in 3.0.7. It might be affecting smbclient listing of printer shares too. Misty

Hi all, I installed SuSe 9.1 with Samba 3.0.4-suse. I can not get the smbd to start from swat, but nmbd is running, When I start smdb and nmbd with the SWAT restat then ps -A shows that the processes are there and it seems to run, but not according to the 'status' of swat. Copying files from samba and printing with the shared printers work though. The printers show "access denied, no

Hi Please Help...

I have a small Samba 2.2.1a plus Win2k workgroup. Samba is running on Redhat 7.2. There is a networked laserjet 5000 using a static IP which I can print to successfuly from the linux box, and from the win2k workstations via the queue on the linux box. The weird thing is that, on the win2k worksations, if I double click on the printer icon the status of the printer is reported as "Access

Hi, I know little to nothing about samba so need some advice on a problem I'm having. One of my users is trying to mount a UNIX directory onto his PC and gets the error "not authorised from this station". He was able to do this until he had his hard drive swapped out. Desktop have said they all settings are as they were previously and that this is a UNIX issue. Other users on the

Hello All, Well my Samba server is up and running good, but I am now needing to be able to let some of my users connect to our server who is not located on our local network. Actually they are located some distance away and I would like to be able to allow then to connect. Has anyone had any success with this and how it might be done? Best Regards, Lonnie -- Lonnie Cumberland OutStep

Hi - Is there a way to tell Samba to use the NT_Create_AndX style of commands (vs SMB_COM_OPEN)? Thanks, Zach

Hi guys, Unfortunately this is still happening I've tried restarting Samba. Users who should be denied access after 21:00 are being denied access at 19:00. Our time zone in South Africa is GMT+2. Perhaps I should set the timezone on the server to UTC/GMT ? Do you think this will help ? Should I then leave the time set to the current time in South Africa ? Or should I set the time to the

Listmates (only posting to one list) Compiz has been running great with the 8.433 driver except for the libGL SONAME lockup on exit. see: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=344135 I just built and installed the 8.452 driver. Compiz would not start with the normal fusion-icon approach that I have been using with the 8.433 driver. This is on my Toshiba P35 laptop with an ATI

List, In checking ring switcher and shift switcher, it seems that the key bindings are off. For shift switcher, it still initiates with <Shift><Super>S, but no longer terminates with enter on the numeric keypad, only the normal enter key terminates it. For ring switcher, it is NOT initiated with <Super>Tab despite the key binding showing that it is. Instead,
