Hi, I'm running samba-3.0.5 on OpenBSD 3.5. I'm trying out using samba as a print server for the first time, and it works ok, but I have this problem where everytime I print anything, a additional blank page comes out of the printer at the end of what was just printed. It's an old HP Laserjet 4 connected to the parallel port of the samba server. /etc/printcap lp|HP4|HP Laserjet

Hiya I've got FreeBSD and Samba 2.2 running quite nicely on a server I ma using for web page development. This is on a 3 PC network at home using fixed IP addresses 192.168.0.x etc. However, last night I tried to make it into a PDC following the PDC Howto document. all seemed well till I tried to login to it >-: The netbios name is 'micah' the server name was

Hiya Yesterday I had to face the XP Home logon script monster and came up with something that appears to work ok. Issue is the XP Home will not do a domain login and therefore not run the logon script, nor map the home drive using 'net use h: /home' My solution is to put a batch file into c:\documents and settings\username that contains net use h: \\server\username

See my note from yesterday about quota size displays for reference I have just been looking at the source code. (long time since I did C, so forgive me if I stuff something up royally) in source/smbd/ntquotas.c there is code that corrects for block sizes other than 1024, which would work correctly IFF the *bsize is set correctly (should be 512 on my FreeBSD system but i don't know how to

Hi all I have just noticed that Windows (98 and 2000) are not displaying the correct figure for disk space on any of my shares. FreeBSD 5.2.1-R Samba 3.0.7 from ports quotas enabled on the ufs2 filesystems samba compiled '--with-quotas' ok, a user gets a quota set like this edquota -e /home:8672278:8774678:0:0 denis now, those numbers are in 512 byte blocks and should represent

Hello Why is it necessary to specify encrypt passwords = no to make Samba server start using solely /etc/passwd? Isn't it possible to tell Samba server that on the way between a client and the server, the passwords sould be encrypted, and after decryption, they will be checked against /etc/passwd and not smbpasswd, tdb or whatever backend? Cl<

Hiya. I'm trying to get a 2.2 PDC working, and am hitting a brick wall. I've tried to make sure I'm in compliance with the 2.2 HOWTO and FAQ, but it doesn't seem to be helping. - I've added both root and my pc's "hostname" to smbpasswd, and the hostname itself to the passwd file, as per the HOWTO. - I swiped the smb.conf and /etc/rc.d/init.d/samba files from

Has anybody done such a thing as this? I'm looking to make this transition as smooth as possible. I have the new fileserver up and running, and I'm using rsync to keep the Novell data current on the Samba server. Any words of advice on transferring the users and groups and permissions over to the new server in the least painful way possible? I have some idea that Novell uses LDAP

Hi All I am not clear quite how one could use cca from package vegan and the associated predict.cca to predict species abundance from environmental data (or if this is possible in a generalised way). In other words, can one derive a cca object based on known community data and use that to predict e.g. species abundances in a different number of samples based on environmental data? The help

Dear Samba Developers, OS: Linux 2.0.31 Samba1.9.17p4 today I detected that smbstatus shows more users logged in as really using the samba service. It seems that at logoff sometimes the smbd won't die and won't free the used tcp/ip socket: Output from "netstat -a": Active Internet connections (including servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address

I can not get rsync to work when sending from my XP box to a Solaris,HPUX,or AIX host using rsh I am using the cygwin version of rsync, and the windows XP version of remsh. Can anybody tell me what is happening? Any hints on what to do next?

Hi, I compiled openssh 2.1.1p1 on Irix 6.2 with MIPS 7.2.1.2m compiler. All works fine except the yppasswd command from Irix (it's no NIS-problem, same with rlogin works): Logged in with 'ssh machine -l user1' # who user1 ttyq0 Jun 19 15:17 (xxxxx.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de) # ypcat passwd |grep user1 user1:xxxxxxxxxxxxx:1535:1500:User1:/usr/people/user1:/bin/tcsh # ypcat passwd |grep

Yesterday I moved my LAN domain from a W2K server to Samba and I have problems logging on to my WinNT 4 machine using local profiles. My boss's computer is a freshly installed W2K and it had no problem at all with the change. My computer is a WinNT4 SP 6 and when I tried to log on with my user it said it couldnt find the profile and logged me off immediately. I used to have a roaming

Hi, I''m having a little trouble figuring out how to make a self- referential HABTM bi-directional. I have a Employee class. Each employee can have a couple of bosses, who are also employees. The employee class has the following HABTM: has_and_belongs_to_many :bosses, :class_name => "Employee", :join_table => "bosses_courses", :association_foreign_key =>

Happy New Year all! I am looking for a good solution for keeping record of my experiments - could you please help me? My work is about analysing data... My current work-flow: 1. Everyday my bosses give me some small steps/tasks for analysing data - which are parts of one bigger/whole project. 2. Everyday I send tens of emails to bosses/colleagues to report my findings in each step. 3.

Guys. This idea has been banging my headfor days now and I feel the need to share with you. Imagine this scenario: all calls come in thru a receptionist, asterisk records all incoming calls, the receptionist's work is to transfer the calls to internal people but some of them are bosses and you know how bosses are, they don't want their calls to be recorded, so, I have been trying to

Hello everyone, Can I use Ldap to authenticate against our W2K PDC? I have winbind working for Samba 2.2.8a - but the boss wants me to see about Ldap. If this is possible could you provide a starting point for me? I can use getent group to get a list of domain groups after I adjusted the /etc/ldap.conf By default Samba found our State Ldap server upon installation - I work for the State

Hiya! Running Samba 2.2.3a on HP-UX 11.0, precompiled binaries from Porting Centre. Everything works fine until we have a customer that wants to put their app on w2k terminal server. When the drives get mapped they are serviced by the same smbd daemon on the UNIX box; this is the same behavior as if you mapped the same drive twice from any windows client. After 2 or 3 users get drives mapped,
