First thank you to the team for the Samba software. I have been using this on a number of sites with excellent results and very few problems over the years.

Good Afternoon, I had sent in an earlier message about trying to login and getting dropped from a W2000 workstation. I received a reply back to upgrade Samba from 3.013 to 3.020x. I did this. Operating System: SuSE 9.3 Samba Version: 3.0.20a (SuSE's RPMs) I am using /etc/samba/smbpasswd file and not LDAP to store the users and passwords. [global] passwd chat debug = Yes passwd

I am trying to get SAMBA to run on a custom ARM 922T compatible micro controller. It does not matter how I try to start smbd (smbd -D -d10 or smbd i -d10) smbd keeps panicking at the same point with an INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 6. I have spent over a day trying to figure out what could be wrong but I am having no success. If someone could at least give me a clue as to what smbd is trying to do at

Hi Samba List I have the problem to modify an entry for a user in samba with tdb backend. My OS is OpenSuSE 13.1, Samba 4.1.21. Samba NT'Style, no AD, no LDAP, passdb backend = tdbsam I managed to delete a User in my NIS/passwd File before I deleted it in my Samba tdb.
