This falls under the 'getting clearcase to work with samba' category. Does anybody know if the clearcase albd server actually uses samba to access files (or anything else) on the unix side? I am having 'discussions' with rational (the clearcase people). The nt user running clearcase to access some unix-side views connects to the unix side using a set of credentials that have

Andrew, Thank you for your suggestions. The real problem is Rational Technical support. When you pay someone 100k+ they tend to look for any excuse to deem you "unsupported". If you don't have your default group set to the clearcase user group, then technical support will decide that thats where your problem is! I am sure you know how that goes... I have solved problems

Gerald, No worries. This patch is required if your using Rational ClearCase and you don't want everyone to have access to it. It's to fix a brokenness (IMO) within ClearCase, and maybe other programs. Our windows primary group has 10k+ users... I will shoot it off to Rational, so they can provide it to there customers. I was hoping it could be applied to the main tree so I could just

Hello Samba, We tried to use samba-2.2.4-1 with Rational ClearCase and had a problem using WinBind. ClearCase requires the primary group id to be set to the clearcase users group. WinBind sets the primary group to something like DOMAIN_GROUP_RID_USERS. I am including the patch we made to samba-2.2.4 to get things working. I have added two new smb.conf options: winbind primary group //

Is there anyone out there successfully using Rational Clearcase with SAMBA? Was there any special changes you had to make to get it to work? We were told by Rational specifically not to use SAMBA and wanted to get the other side.

Hello, I am Shashidhar SR Working for Siemens Communication Software in Bangalore, INDIA as a Configuration Manager for Clearcase. I need some help regarding the samba configuration at our site. First Let me Explain our Environment: - We are Using samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 9. - We are using samba as an interop from Solaris 9 box to winnt/w2k/win-xp clients. - On Solaris we have installed IBM

Hi All ! i?m running Clearcase (IBM Rational) and have some strange problems ... when i use Samba ver 3.21b i can?t access the samba share by name (\\servername\sambashare) but i can access it on ip (\\192.168.1.100\sambashare\) i?m running debug level 10 and it seems like it can?t authenticate when access on netbios/dns/host name but on ip it can ? when running samba ver 3.23b from

I have a SAMBA Server utilizing an LDAP backend for user authentication and it works great unless I use ClearCase. When ClearCase is used the compilation time for our code is slowed down to a crawl and the ClearCase application is rendered nearly useless. As a test fix my boss wants me to create a second SAMBA server to be used for only the ClearCase server. I don't know if this will work,

I have tried Samba 3.0.2a and 3.0.4. We use Active directory. The server is running on RHEL3. When I connect to the server on a share that is acutally an ext3 or NFS file system, I have no known problems. We use ClearCase on Linux and I am trying to access my workspace (view) as I have done many times before on Solaris, but now we are running on Linux and with a newer version of ClearCase

We're trying to use samba to let our PC's mount view extended pathnames used by clearcase but they show up as empty. If anyone's used samba and Clear Case (by Pure Atria) and gotten it to work I'd love to hear how. thanks, Bill -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- William H.

Hello, We are using Samba to connect our ClearCase server to the Windows environment. Our original configuration was one server hosting all our VOBs and Views. We have Samba configured to allow mapping of shares to our ClearCase Windows Clients. Everything was working fine. Now we have set up a second server to host all our Views separate from the VOBs. So we have a View server and a separate VOB

Hi, I have a problem accessing files on NT and 95 using Samba version 1.9.18p10. The files that I am accessing are in ClearCase (version control software) on a Solaris Ultra 60 server. They are source files and are compiled on NT on the command line through batch files. If I fire more than one build (batch file) then once in a while I get a fatal error from the Microsoft compiler - "Could

Hi all -- I recently temporarily deployed an upgraded Clearcase server (7.1.2.3) on 64 bit RHEL 5.6. With it I was using Redhat's release of Samba for that version of the OS -- 3.0.33. The system has 32 GB of memory and within 12 hours, it would be down into swap. Maximum active licenses used is 36 but a more typical load is 18-25 users having a Clearcase license at once. Clearcase

We are having some problems in our company's test group that did not exist when our Clearcase 2003.06 server existed on a Solaris 8 machine. Now we are running on RHEL 5.2 with Clearcase 7.0.1.3 with Samba 3.0.28 (despite the fact that IBM has only blessed up to 3.0.24) and running into some file locking issues with some scripts our test group runs. I am hoping that someone might have some

My original post didn't seem to work properly - so I am trying again ... I am having problems getting security=domain to work properly with Samba 3.0.11 (this seems to be the recommended configuration for the application which I use - ClearCase) We are running on a Solaris 10 server. We created a machine account for the server and then ran the command to join the domain : net rpc join -S

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,

Background: This situation is using Rational ClearCase in a situation with server on Solaris 10 and clients on a mixture of Windows XP and Windows 7, with access to the VOB (repository) enabled via Samba version: 3.4.9 Users are getting a consistent error with a specific ClearCase operation (Add to Source Control), which we have traced to a Samba interaction. The issue: For the interaction

Hello, I realize that AIX 4.3.3 is a very old platform, but we have one such system which cannot be upgraded and requires Samba. We are currently using Samba 2.2.1a (!) and I'd like to upgrade to something more modern. This system participates in a Clearcase environment and we are trying to share an MVFS filesystem. Users complain that it takes a very long time (5+ minutes) to access this

Hello, i have a little problem here: Using Samba 2.2.2 with IBM ClearCase (2003) on a Sun Solaris 8 machine (2 cpus, 4G ram) (IBM does not support Samba 3.0 with Clearcase, maybe Samba 3.0 will fix the problem, but not able to test it yet). There are more than 100 smbd processes running in average. Load average of the maschine: under 1.0 in normal operation. But from time to time there are

Good morning, I have a problem and I am unsure whether it's anything to do with Samba. We use Samba on HP-Unix in conjunction with a product from rational called clearcase. Occasionally from getting to our NT Desktops to our Unix environment Powerbuilder Files( which are binary files) get reduced down to 0 size, this gets saved and we end up losing our work. I am not expecting you to solve
