Hey! I'm trying to get a web application I'm developing to authenticate against the samba user database. As far as I can tell, what I have to do is "simply" set up a PAM service that uses pam_smbpass.so, and then use a PAM client library to authenticate against it. For the second part, I found a Python example that authenticates against a given PAM service, and it works fine

Hi all, A while ago I posted about needing to access samba shares on the same machine that the samba server was running on. Someone posted a script to mount the shares and all was well till I upgraded my PC hadware and had a small accident :( I have tried modifing /etc/init.d/samba adding ... mount -t smbfs //127.0.0.1/common /mnt/samba/common -o

So when the user slautier log into the machine, it does it without specifying the domain name. slautier is a member

Hello, I have the following in /etc/samba/smbfstab; //msserver/share /mnt/smb-share cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,credentials=/etc/cifsusers/admin,rw However, when using 'mount /mnt/smb_dir' I get; mount: can't find /mnt/smb_dir in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab Using 'mount -a' doesn't mount either.

Hi All, I'm have a lot of speech files that are given from an organisation that has a lot of audio tapes with talks on them. Many people use these tapes, and I have started to convert to the audio to mp3. More recently I've started using speex, but the problem is, many people are using macintosh's and I don't know how to play speex files on macintosh, (Linux, & Windows

I have been searching through the docs and on the web to no avail. I work at a university and we are moving our fileservers to new hardware. The problem is, nothing seems to integrate Mac's and Win box's happily. We have a large user base using samba already, but when mac's pick up the same share via CAP, CAP creates files to deal with the dual 'stream' nature of files from a

Hi all, Have any of you had experience with macintosh's sandbox denying access to a folder served by Samba? I don't know exactly how to reproduce, so here's everything (?): I'm running macOS Catalina (10.15.1). In the terminal I start a python command interpreter. python # then >>>import os # then I repeatedly list a directory others have been having problems

openSUSE v13.1 linux 3.11.10-11-desktop x86_64 samba 4.1.6 I recently upgraded an openSUSE server from v12.3 to v13.1.

Trying to mount it by command line: root:/home/sma-user3x> mount /t2 Retrying with upper case share name mount error(6): No such device or address

Hi, John, thanks for replying. I am fully aware that this is a volunteer effort and do appreciate it very much. I really didn't expect an automatic answer - I was suggesting an automatic response which could indicate the objection[s]? I have downloaded the S3be `book' and ordered it from amazon. I was puzzled by your comment: `Please do not refer to smbfs's friends as Samba. The

I have a small LAN: SuSE 7.2 with Samba 3.0 and a W2K box. What I can do: I can create shares from the W2K box that make files from the Linux box visible. I can also manually mount (using % smbmount ... ) from the command line as root. Here is where I run into problems. The only way I can mount a partition via smbmount is if I use the username=user%passwd option. If I attempt to setup a .smbpw
