I have our Samba server mostly working, however it will not allow me to change the password on the client desktop or via USRMGR. The error message we are getting is "the system cannot change your password now because the domain TOPC is not available". USRMGR reports "Could no find domain controller for this domain" Everything is authenticating properly. Any ideas? I'm

I have recently set up a basic file and print server at my office using Fedora Core 3 and Samba 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3 . We have a variety of clients (1 X WinXP Pro, 1 X Win XP Home, 3 X Win 2k, 1 X Win 98). I can access all file shares on the server from all clients with no problems. I can print to our Samsung ML-2150 printer (connected to the server via USB) from all clients except the Windows 98

Hi everybody ! I have installed Samba 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3 which is default version on FC3 making a fileserver and local master browser for my LAN . There is a machine called DAN ( running W98se ) which stops my Samba LMB. The nmbd.log says : .... ***** [2006/05/21 18:31:11, 0] nmbd/nmbd_incomingdgrams.c:process_local_master_announce(311) process_local_master_announce: Server DAN at IP

I have a Samba share on a Fedora Core 3. When I copy files to it from my windows XP Service Pack 2 box the samba share gives all the files the same date/time (the current date and time), instead of giving it the same date as the files already have. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I want to Preserve to original time and date stamps. I'm running: Samba version 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3

Hi, On a Fedora box we installed Samba 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3 Accidently we've removed the samba password file. Now, we can't get access to Samba anymore. Is there a way to re-create it ? Or do we have to reinstall Samba ? BTW: We have no backup .... cheers, Andy

Hi, I'm trying to get a Samba (version 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3) to play with some WinXP boxes. I'm using WORKGROUPS, not DOMAIN. The server is running under Fedora Core 3. And I'm following the troubleshooting chapter in the O'Reilly book, Chapter 9. I cannot browse the shares from my WinXP machine. I CAN browse and access shares okay as a client on the Samba server machine. I

I'm running FC3 with its bundled samba 3.0.11-fc3, and I'm trying to update to 3.0.14a. I've downloaded the rpms from samba.org, and (I think) I've backed up the original samba installation--/etc/samba--and I've stopped smb (I had to kill the smbd and nmbd processes; "/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb stop" didn't work). I've also withdrawn (make uninstall) an

Hi, I've used Samba several years without any problems. Last week I added a new disk to my system, and Samba started to behave very strange. It's slow in terms of establish a connection and time to list directories. I've tried to resolve the problem without success. No other daemon has problems, both ftp and http works fine as well as internal communication. Below I've attached

We have been using SAMBA for file/print servers and domain controllers in Windows networks for several years. At one site, we have intermittent problems in which the connection to the SAMBA server appears to die: i.e., no one can connect to the share, and the Windows clients (Terminal Servers and workstations) apparently keep re-trying to connect which ultimately locks up those clients.

I have recently switched from the UW imap server to dovecot and things seem to be working nicely. One thing that I can't seem to figure out however, is how to get dovecot to show folders that are a softlink. We run SpamAssassin. Users can use both their own personal spam folder as well as a shared spam folder. For messages that everyone would consider spam, the user can simply drag the

Dear All, After updating the CentOS system with: yum update,booting of my machine seems to be halted - I am getting the error "System unable to recognized the form of picture of '/usr/share/gdm/themes/Default/background.png'" I noticed this last week, I thought it will be alright with next update, I update once again using yum tonight. But the issue is still there.(this is not

I'm backing up a bunch of Windows machines onto a linux box (FC3, Samba 3.0.8-0.pre1.3) and it works great... UNLESS some idiot disconnects or shuts down his computer while I'm running the backup, and then my rsync command hangs while trying to copy the files from that computer's smbmounted drive to the server. Isn't there some sort of way to soft mount the samba share or

We're running Samba 3.0.20 on a Solaris 9 server, using the Blastwave build. smb.conf file is below. Our user homes are on a Veritas file system with vxquota enabled, usually 50M per user, and then users have links under their home dirs to file systems with larger quotas or no quotas. For example, /home/joeuser has a 50M vxquota, but /home/joeuser/aux is a softlink to /vol/aux on which

Very simple setup. We have a NT4 pdc and some windows boxes. We have a large raid running on linux that we use samba to share to the rest of the network. 2.2.4 works great, 3.0 doesn't using the same smb.conf. I'm sure there are some things that have changed but even trying to take the examples on the site and mod them to fit my case doesn't work either. The linux/samba box name is

In resolving bug 15980, the pip package provider was changed to recognize the RedHat osfamily fact and use the executable name "pip-python" in those environments. This does not take into account environments where pip has been installed via easy_install or by custom rpm providers. In those environments (such as mine) this osfamily change breaks the pip provider, requiring as a

Hi All, (I've also posted this to the CentOS forum - so copy and pasted for simplicity) I'm having an unusual issue with Samba server package 3.6.9-164.el6 When sharing out a directory containing a soft symlink pointing to a directory outside of the share and a different filesystem/block device. When a client mounts the partition (Linux and Mac OSX Clients tested) and attempts to copy a

Thank you everyone for your advice / suggestions. I have made a little progress, but still not able to map to my share through Active Directory. I wanted to post some of the things that I tried: Replaced /usr/lib/nss_winbind.so with what was in the source directory for Samba-3.3.3. Created softlink to /usr/lib/nss_winbind.so.1 from /usr/lib/nss_winbind.so. Replaced /lib/libnss_winbind.so with
