Using Samba on Kubuntu Breezy, and Win98 on a virtual PC (VMPlayer). Everything works fine, except: When the firewall (iptables via GuardDog) is activated, I don't get any access from Win98 to my Linux shares - neither by ping nor by "connecting network-drive" - even if I allow everything that can be allowed within GuardDog (although this should have the same effects like

Hi, I have a samba server which functioned correctly. Only, since 2 weeks, the users have complained about slowness networks and the server is to 100% CPU on the initial process smbd. My version is 3.0.7 and I have a Windows 2000 WINS server for netbios resolution. The samba server use nscd and ldap for password module.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Anyone interested in having the Windows remote task scheduler implemented in Samba 3 at some point ? I think it would be pretty easy work based on the registry stuff that's been done lately. If you think this would be a useful feature for scheduling services on a Samba host, let me know. Disclaimer: I've never used this feature on Windows

Hi All, I've been trying to tackle this for some time and so far did not find a way to do this. The problem is simple - as I don't enable printing through Samba I'd like to disable it in such fashion that user would not even see the empty Printers share when he lists the available shares. How can I achieve that? Best Regards, Marek C.

The motherboard in our Samba server fried. I have re-installed our operating system (SUSE 10) and was wondering what is the best way to restore our Samba server? Can it be as simple as copying the smb.config and smbpasswd files back into the /etc/samba directory? That's what I am hoping. If I just copy the smb.config and the smbpasswd files back to the samba directory will the machine trusts,

I've got a particularly inelegant setup to manage whereby we have one server attached to a fibre SATA enclosure, and another one on standby that has to be manually plugged in should the first go down. I'm trying to work out what the best way to synchronize the samba setup is, presumably mainly user accounts, across the two is so I don't have to do everything twice. Thanks in

Hi everybody. I'm having a weird behavior with my smb+ldap installation. My server is configured as the PDC for my network. All my users are attached to the domain and are working fine.

The smb service is not starting automatically. I can type service smb start at the prompt and it loads, and I can then connect, but its not loading automatically as it used to. Can someone point me in the right direction as what file I need to change to make it load at startup. Thanks! Liz

I have installed lots of samba 3 servers as PDCs for little networks serving 10 users or so. I have always set up the user "root" as the domain administrator, by setting its group SID to <domainSID>-512 with pdbedit. My "root" user has usually a user SID of <domainSID>-1000 since it is the first user I add to Samba. I have never set up a username map

OK so I've got samba-3.0.11 compiled with ACL support. I've running 2.4.25 with the ACL/ATTR patch applied. I can read and set ACLS's using the getfacl/setfacl programs. ldd /usr/sbin/smbd shows it's linked to libattr.so.1 and libacl.so.1. I can read ACL with the smbcacls program, but when I try to set them I get: ERROR: Unable to open credentials file! Also from the

Hi... If you have successfully gotten samba 3.0.14a (or any other recent samba version) to work with ldap, can you perhaps email me your various config files so I can figure out what I am doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried every thing I can think of, but I can't get samba 3.0.14a to work with ldap. The ldap server seems to be working and smbclient seems to
