similar to: Blank ctime or mtime causes on files in profile

Greetings, I have Samba 3.0.9 running on SuSE 9.2, 2.6.5-7.111-smp kernel. SAMBA is a PDC using OpenLDAP as a passdb backend. Workstations are combination w2k SP3, SP4, and Windows XP SP1. The problem I have is with profile syncronization. If a user obtains a file that has a blank modified time, Windows substitutes Jan 13, 2038 for the date. When the user logs out, the file is copied to the

Hi, We use an rsync (rrsync, to be precise) based back-up solution. Every so often an iSCSI based file-system gets brought up and left connected for the night. After a mount event rsync will back that volume up, including server TB of data that haven't been modified, but the ctime is newer than the mtime. Is there a way to stop this behaviour? Cheers, Andrej

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I would need to see both your existing rsync command line and the output of --itemize-changes when such an occurrence happens before I can really understand what is happening. In the end, if you have any output at all the bare minimum should be - --itemize-changes. --verbose is utterly useless without it. On 09/07/2015 11:10 PM, Andrej wrote: >

This is because changing the mtime also changes the ctime as does other things like changing the permissions. Rsync only pays attention to the mtime because rsync can set a specific mtime (--times) but setting a specific ctime is impossible as it would violate the basic *nix security model.

Hello I am making backup of a Plesk Debian server to /backup using Rsync. My questioin is how can I preserve the ctime, mtime, and atime of original files? Thanks

Hi, I'm running into weird problems after switching from tdbsam to ldapsam user backend. I have transferred all local unix and samba groups with the sambaldap-tools scripts. The 'net groupmap list' command prints all group mappings correctly, and I also can use all the groups present in LDAP for setting local file ownerships. However these groups don't appear in the windows

I'm migrating from an NT4 Domain Controller to Samba 3.0.5 And it's mostly working. Users can log on but their desktop profiles don't load. On the NT Server there profile location was just left blank and people had their profiles locally saved. With the new samba server I want to leave it the same for now.

Hello. I have configured PDC (Primary domain controler) with samba 3.2.5 and LDAP. The workstation has installed Windows XP Service Pack 3.

But if i log in with the same account from other computer, it doesn't load the files that belongs to this account. When i

I've set up samba and ldap, based on the instructions at the howtoforge at http://www.howtoforge.com/openldap-samba-domain-controller-ubuntu7.10 Although I've used 8.04, rather than 7.10. It's running as a Virtual machine on a dual core 3Ghz intel box. It works fine, with one exception. Windows users can't write to their profile directory. I decided to mount the offending

Hello, I have a big problem with a samba setup. After I tried the config option smb ports = 139 in the global section, 90% of the roaming profiles are not usable by the windows XP clients. Removing the smb ports options didn't help. No errors in the samba logfile. erasing the profiles seems to fix the issue, but I cannot afford losing all my users profile data! here is my smb.conf.

Hello list, I have setup Samba as a PDC (with openldap too) and have the following problem. Windows clients (we have only XP) are able to join the domain without a problem. Administrator can also access its profile without a problem but when usera for example is logging in for first time, it creates the local profile to the Windows machine and make use of Samba roaming profile without a problem.

I've inherited a small office network I didn't build. We're running Novell's eDirectory, and using Samba as a PDC. Everyone's profile roams but mine. I didn't build our smb.conf file, but I've read tutorials on roaming profiles, and it seems to be set up correctly. I've included the text of that file at the end of this message. I bungled creating my account in

Ever since I upgraded Samba from 3.0.x to 3.4.x, and reconfigured it to support Windows 7 clients, I am having issues with roaming profiles on my Windows XP clients. All the machines have been rejoined to the domain, domain authentication appears to be working fine, the home drive is mounted ok, and the profile information is even read, but never updated upon logout. A user with no profile will
