Hello, I am having a very speific problem with my samba interface. We just migrated to a new IBM pSeries server with AIX 5.3. The older server was a RS6000, with AIX 5.2 and everything I'm about to describe below worked without fail. We have a Windows 2000 Server that runs IIS. There is a web-based program (programmed in VB Script) that calls test.sh AIX script (through samba) on our AIX

I have installed samba 2.2.7 on freebsd from the ports collections. I had a previous installation of samba 2.0 and I used my old smb.conf file to duplicate the funcationality I had. Trouble is, printing from winNT/2K clients doesn't work. Printing from win9x machines still does. I've been through the docs on samba.org and looked in chap6 of HOWTO collection on printing and the

Samba is causing a couple huge problems for the NT admins here since we switched a bunch of machines to security=server and started running nmbd. We're running Samba 2.0.2 and 2.0.3 on a mix of Solaris, HP-UX, and OSF1 machines. One, selecting a Samba server in Server Manager, then selecting Computer/ Services causes Server Manager to crash ("An application error has occurred, blah blah,

Hi ! I have a problem after changing NT sp3 to sp4 and Samba from 1.x to 2.0.

Hi! I've got the fillowing trouble. Im' trying to get the local shares list. I started the smbd using "/etc/init.d/smb restart" script. It seem to work fine.

Hi list, sorry in case I do ask a FAQ, but I did in fact find some more mentions of a problem like this, but always without a solution. I upgraded our Samba server today (from 2.10/SuSE to 3.0x/Debian) and have problems with some of the clients (Windows XP). When trying to access a share from these clients, I get a NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE, and increasing the log level reveals several occurences

Hi all, I'am trying to set up my Samba server to use DOMAIN auth. I followed the instructions in the "security = domain in Samba 2.x" and had good results. Used this command to join the domain "smbpasswd -j DOM -r DOMPDC -UAdministrator%password" and I got the result "smbpasswd: Joined domain DOM." I added the entries into the configuration file to complete

Hello, I've got a somehow weird problem with the primary GID of samba users. passdb backend is tdbsam. when I connect to the samba server my gid is set to 2147483404 instead of 1002 (domainusers). The GID 1002 ist configured as my primary group in /etc/passwd. This also happens with other usernames. After deleting group_mapping.tdb this worked for some hours but the error came back.

I have been having a problem that has had me scratching my head for the last week and a half. I have searched with google, read the 13th hour troubleshooting guide (stopped when it got to the sniffer diagnostics), and have even upgraded samba to 3.0.0.

Hi all, recently I asked for help with a problem Samba had to write files (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085003.html, http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085083.html). Since that hasn't solved, and since it occurs regardless of changes of the smb.conf, I'd like to post some passages of the smb log file (log level 4) of the attempt to copy a file to

Hi, I have a samba server which should act as a domain controller. I did not set up the server by myself. I can "see" and use the servers shares with windows and linux clients. Everithing - including the security settings - for the shares works as expected. I can join a client to the domain, this works with manual adding the machine account as well as with the adduser script . I
