Fellow samba folk, This one's making me want to tear out what little hair I have left. THE *NIX PLATFORM: FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE, Samba 3.3.8. THE ENVIRONMENT: Small domain, Windows 2003 servers and XP-pro based workstations. The FreeBSD server is a member server in the domain, so at least that works. THE SYMPTOMS: This is bizarre. I can, using mount_smbfs on the FreeBSD side, easily

Hi all, Today our domain went down. When looking in the log it appears that a windowsXPpro machine won the election. The domain controller has an OSlevel of 65 (3.0.14a). Restarting the smb process (/etc/init.d) resolved the problem. How is it possible that the XP machine was able to win the election ? After the election the XP machine (of course) failed to become the master browser. But why

Hi everyone, I have posted this message twice already I really need to know if this can be done with samba and winbind. Please can anyone help? I have a Redhat 8 server running samba 2.2.8a and have configured samba to use winbind so that I can control access to the samba file shares using user and group accounts that have been set up in our windows NT domain. This all works fine on the shares

Hi, I'm trying to get a Samba (version 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3) to play with some WinXP boxes. I'm using WORKGROUPS, not DOMAIN. The server is running under Fedora Core 3. And I'm following the troubleshooting chapter in the O'Reilly book, Chapter 9. I cannot browse the shares from my WinXP machine. I CAN browse and access shares okay as a client on the Samba server machine. I

Hi, I had Samba all working, but then I upgraded to samba 2.2.1a and windows from 98 to XP. Printing no longer works, and I don't think guest access works properly either. Probably for the same reason. In windows it appears that connection to the printer is ok, but when you print it goes in the windows print queue and never gets to the linux box. In printer setup it says lp on

Did someone of you find a solution for our problerm ??? I send you the documented as you asked it but I always got the same problems. I tried some possibilites for optimizing my system but I always stay with my problem for writing files. Reading files from my shares is not a problem but writing causes "buffers" problems with windows and windows says he could not write all the blocks.

Hello All, I wouldn't write with such a trivial sounding problem if I didn't have to - Sorry. I have two machines on LAN 192.168.0. One is a windows machine, one is a Redhat 9 machine. I have been trying to get samba set up for two weeks now. I first installed RedHat 9 with GUI and then reimaged my windows box. Everything worked like a charm and Samba was perfect. Me being

Hey, I am new to Linux, and I am caught up in an issue with Samba. I have two computers. One is a Win XP Pro and the other is Fedora Core 1 sharing a cable modem connection via a D-Link Router. With these to computers I want to be able to share files in-between the two of us. With samba I can see my XP computer with no problems. I just have to type in a user name and password.
