Hi, I would like to mount an hidden share on windows from my linux box. I am trying: mount -t smbfs //server/share$ /mountpoint -o username=user%password and I get a "share not found". On windows I can run \\server\share$ and it works. Am I making something wrong? Or ist this behaviour due to a limitation of smbmount? Thank you for your help Regards Gualtiero Ottolini

Hi, does samba server access the disk periodically even it is not serving any client ? I am trying to setup a home server which is not frequently used and set the HD to spin down after 60s inactivity. But it get kicks up again apparently by samba(stoping samba and the disk won't spin up anymore). I think it is a 3 minute or so interval. Is there a way to tell it not to as I can sacrifice

[Sorry this is so long; I've tried to be thorough. Please CC: any responses to me, because I haven't gotten any messages from the Samba list in over 15 hours and am concerned something is awry with my subscription.] I have recently set up a Samba 3.0.1 PDC/BDC installation with LDAP master/slave. It has been mostly successful, however, there are a few niggling issues that remain.

I'm trying to setup Samba in ADS security mode so I can run winbind for NSS and Kerberos for user authentication, chiefly for shell accounts for developers. These hosts will not provide any file or printer services, at least in the near-term. My hosts are CentOS 3 (a free RHEL3 clone) and my ADS servers are Windows 2000 (not 2003), in hybid mode. I am using stock RPMs for both Kerberos and

I have been working on adding some predicate functions to puppetlabs-stdlib that test things based on ''interfaces'' and related facts. The functions themselves seem to work fine in my manifest-based smoketests, but I am running into trouble that may or may not be due to my ignorance about rspec or Facter. Something needs to be done to initialize Facter because

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis. Is it possible to set up multiple login scripts that would be executed in sequence i.e. run by user is %u, and machine is %m is it

Hi All, Can somebody help me set this up. I'm trying to set up a public folder on my SAMBA server which will let my users create their own folders to store their files. And not let everyone delete them. Following are the problems I'm having: 1) If I set the directory rights to 755 on /exports and share the /exports/public directory with ~/public set to 755 Users can't create

I've set up Samba 3 as a PDC/BDC with LDAP. Yesterday we upgraded from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2rc1, which fixed some client-to-client problems we were having. Shortly after midnight this morning the PDC stopped--the general syslog logs, the LDAP log, and the Samba logs. The only process that seems to continue is NTP, which after start-up does nothing NSS or PAM-related. This leads me to think slapd

I have a complex graph of ActiveRecord entities that I want to load with one big honkin'' join query to avoid ripple loading. It''s for a report. However :include doesn''t get me all the way there because I want to load parents of parents (or children of children). I don''t mind doing the SQL by hand but I''m not quite sure what to do to get the result

In my tests, I use fixtures, eg pupils.yml might be: jimmy: id: 100003 known_as: Jimmy surname: Page academic_year_id: 1 gender: m In the test, @jimmy (the referencing style referred to in Agile Web Dev....) is nil, whereas pupil(:jimmy) returns the expected Pupil object. What gives? Robert

Doea anyone know how to compute components of variance analysis? For example, I have the score of pupils on a test. Each pupil belongs to a school and within each school I may have several classes? How can I estimate the variance of the pupils, schools, classes and the errror variance? Any examples? Any help will be appreciated. Jason Dr. Iasonas Lamprianou Department of Education The

Hi everyone, yesterday I had to debug a failing join on a large domain for a group of primary schools with 1000+ desktop and 10k accounts. The domain run mostly ok except for some replications issues, however joining a new DC just takes eons and so does dbcheck. After some investigation into dbcheck (4.1.17) and some "human powered" valgrind like evalution using pudb, I came to the

Hi I am managing samba server in school. "Server" is on VIA 800MHz processor with 80GB IDE hard drive. there is no domain at the moment, just simple sharing, security share and smbpasswd file. I have 300 computers (each classroom has 20) with winxp sp2 auto logon limited local account, 300 users (6 intake groups). Passworded home directorys on Samba and Pupils have access to it by

Hi all, I have a Centos 6 box running samba-3.6.9 and I have a problem with files turning to 0 bytes after being edited and saved. One of the users reported that he changed the name of two files and both ended up sized 0 bytes and opening them revealed them to be empty. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've been looking for 3 days and there's obvious pattern to the events

I've been vexed for the last few days about 'net ads keytab' commands not working on my RHEL3 machines, among other problems I've run into trying to use winbind with ADS security mode. I found a bug in RH's Bugzilla describing the problem and managed to decipher a work-around. The resolution is to add to your /etc/krb5.conf the following: [libdefaults] default_keytab_name

Hi, is it possible to hide/restrict access to the home drives of our samba users when accessing them directly via netbios address? I have set up the home folders in ADUC. They are all mapped to drive H: and users have full access to their drive. The problem is, that others users also have access (accept write) to other users folders when opening the domain shares via \\<netbios

Hi, I have the following conceptual / interpretative question regarding random effects: A mixed effects model was fit on biological data, with observations coming from different species. There is a clear overall effect of certain predictors (entering the model as fixed effect), but as different species react slightly differently, the predictor also enters the model as random effect and with

I've got Samba 2.0.6 set up for domain logons, and they kinda work. However, about 2 out of 3 times it doesn't work on the first try. Almost always, my log on succeeds if I continue trying, usually 2-5 more times. The workstation is Windows 98. I can't roll this out to my clients until I can get this to work every time, on the first try. I've looked through the list archives, and
