After moving from Redhat AS4 to RHEL 5.5 we started noticing these error messages in the messages log. Upgrade procedure was to build new machine with updated OS, install new samba, duplicate existing ldap server connections, and then shutdown the old box and put new one in place. Messages were not seen on AS4 box and smb.conf file is identical on new box. I am wondering if there was a change

Hi I've upgraded my OS from Redhat AS2.1 to Redhat AS4. The samba upgraded from samba-2.2.7-3.21as to samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9. I use this only to see the Linux filesystem as a drive on my PC. The problem is that I cannot rename a file. Put, Get and Copy works fine. The error I get (after about 30 sec) is any of the following (no specific pattern): "Cannot rename filename:

Is there a good how-to on getting samba to work with Iplanet LDAP ? I already installed it and started configuring from bits and pieces I could find with google, but there're still many things missing. I also found a posting that said samba schema for Iplanet5 shipped with Samba 3.0.8 isn't up to date. What would need to be changed ? Basically I'm looking for a complete walkthrough,

Hi, I got samba 3.0.26a on my Fedora 7, and when i try to add users with smbpasswd -a username, it only works if the user exists as a linux user... i got a Centos 4.4 system with samba 3.0.10 and it works even if the user doesn't exists on the system. Can anyone explain me why this happens? is it from this new version (3.0.26a) or may be a problem of Fedora 7?

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

Dear All, I use Vista sync tool for synchronization Vista between samba-3.0.10 on RHEL AS4. There is some problem on files to copy samba home sharing. But if target directory is being Windows sharing does not happen the below problem. Vista error screen says below messages; These items are in conflict and did not sync ~wrd0000.tmp A file was deleted on this computer and changed

We have 30 or so boxes that are currently running either redhat as3 or as4 and would like to migrate them to Centos 4.2. We have a local centos 4.2 repository using yam. I have in the past updated es3 to as3 by removing the redhat-release rpm and installing the other redhat rpm. I realize there are virtually no differences in es and as3, except for access to additional packages. In any

We use SMB to transfer large files (between 1GB and 5GB) from RedHat AS4 Content Storage servers to Windows clients with 6 DVD burners and robotic arms and other cool gadgets. The servers used to be Windows based, but we're migrating to RedHat for a host of reasons. Unfortunately, the RedHat Samba servers are about 2.5 times slower than the Windows servers. Windows will copy a 1GB file

Hello, I have a shiny new RHES4 box running Samba 3.0.10-1.4E (as included in the Red Hat distribution) which is set up as a domain controller, using openLDAP and the IdealX scripts. User PCs are Windows 2000 and XP. We would like to avoid roaming profiles altogether, so we set "logon path =" and "logon home =" (with no argument to the right of the equals sign) in smb.conf.

I'm trying to join a Windows PC to a domain. I've got a root user set-up to add machines to the domain. When prompted by windows, I enter in root and the password. But I get a windows error dialog, indicating a user was not found. However, in the samba log file for the machine I'm trying to connect to the domain, I can see that the root user was found in ldap, however, for some

Does anyone have any experience with Emulex HBA cards (LP10000) using OCFS2, Linux AS4 U4 x86_64 AMD? I'm trying to find out whether this is a verified combination, if anyone has successfully used it. I have that hardware/sofware combination, and am experiencing stability/performance/panic/hang issues with OCFS2. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi list, I have some problems testing ocfs2.

I am hoping that someone with more experience and knowledge than I can assist me in finding a solution ;) We have a RedHat AS4 box with 5 interfaces. Two interfaces serve two different networks and two interfaces connect to two different uplinks. The fifth interface is our management interface. Since a picture is worth a thousand words I attempted to come up with a diagram:

Apologies if this is a RTFM issue... My first question is: anyone know of code that can assist in going through samba logfiles (looking for errors, etc.)? I have what appears to be a password expiration problem. User X has been able to mount a shared drive off the samba box using his login/password. Suddenly it doesn't appear to work: he can run "net use Z: \\server\share" from

I''m experimenting with xen + iscsi, and I founded that under heavy stress domU''s can crash entire system, I''ve reproduced this many many times. My system is like this Software: - iSCSI Enterprise Target v0.4.13 - RedHat AS4 update 4 64bit + Xen 3.0.3-0 Kernel 2.6.16.29 + Open iSCSI v2.0.730 (Initiator) - Bonnie++ v1.03a VM: - Debian 3.1r3 + Open iSCSI v2.0.730

I have a solaris 9 box that I am configuring to be a PDC using the latest version of samba authenticating off of an Openldap db. This machine uses the same ldap server to authenticate the unix users but after following documentation for setting up samba/ldap PDC. Using smbldap-populate populated the database with no problems but when I try and run smblclient -L master I get the following

Hi. I've samba-3.0.11 now, installed from rpm on Redhat 9.0. Problem was with 3.0.10 too. I don't exactly know when it was broken, because I found it week ago. I've samba as PDC with LDAP backend some time ago when user changes password in windows or when password chenged with smbpasswd - LDAP password of this user was changed too. Now LDAP passwords remains the same as it was.

Environment: Dovecot 1.0beta8 Host: 64 bit Red Hat AS4 Linux (2.6.9-34.0.1) Disks: NFS netapp In the case below, the two connections were going through two separate servers sharing disks via an NFS NetApp. Here is the sequence of operations: 1. Open a connection to a folder (say mail/Trash) 2. Open a connection to another folder (say Inbox) 3. Move messages from Inbox to Trash using this

Ok, I've been literally throwing things in my effort to fix this. Please help me from damaging something valueable! :) I've installed Samba 3.0.22 and OpenLDAP etc. I've used the IDEALX scripts to create the LDAP tree etc. Everything goes swimmingly until I try to check and see if NSS/PAM is working right. I use the following command as shown in SBE to check NSS/PAM working. getent
