similar to: configure options for 3.x -still experimental?

Hello. New to SAMBA.(2.2.8 on RH9) Mixed environment of 98 & (trying) XP. My "net use s: /home" command works wonderfully for XP and 98. But XP throws in an "extra" "more home-than-home" directory - namely \username\.win_profile on the Z drive. I've tried disconnecting it with: net use Z: /delete, but XP claims to have a process running on it (even after 10

I'm trying to grasp pg. 154 of the "Official SAMBA-3" book by Terpstra and Vernooij and I'm just missing a critical networking concept. I understand that SIDs are the numerical identification of a user for the Windows world. I understand that UIDs are the equivalent for the *nix world. But what the @$@! is a Relative IDentifier (RID)?!? On page 153 the command to map a

My Samba Server had a wild time this weekend thanks to alleged power fluctuations. I'm using Samba 3.x on Fedora 4. My server sits on an APC UPS that remains in good health. When I arrived this Monday I found that my MicroTik Router was still up. My Win XP pro AV server was off and my Fedora/SAMBA box was also off. (all boxes have their own 15min UPS) The Win XP pro was brought up w/out

Hi Samba List - I've been surfing the web for a while looking for some help with moving an existing Samba 3.0 PDC to a different machine. I don't want to have to reconfigure each machine on my domain. There has got to be a way to backup the full domain controller, reinstall the samba packages on a new Linux machine, and just restore the users database, etc. I'm sure someone has

I have a setup of Ubuntu 8.04 running Samba 3.0.28a. Connected to our network I have a buffalo linkstation acting as Network Attached Storage (NAS), which I have successfully mounted on the local file system. Using smbcquotas I believe I can set up a quota for each user on the NAS. To get started, I run the command: smbcquotas //192.168.1.4/share -S FSQFLAGS:QUOTA_ENABLED -A

Hi Samba 3.6.3 on Ubuntu. Filesystem is xfs, grpquota and usrquota are enabled. root at host:# repquota /mntpoint displays the correct data (see below). In smb.conf I defined max protocol = SMB2. When running smbcquotas //host/share -L I'm getting displayed a value of 16GB for every user share. This is the value that is displayed on the windows 7 boxes when looking at the network shares in

Hello everyone, I just setup an mp3 streaming server on an old laptop I had laying around using icecast and ezstream. The problem I am having is that when ezstream gets to a certain song in a playlist I get the error "*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x080576e0 ***". I'm not sure if it is doing this because of the song number it is or if it is a

Hello, I am usin Samba 3.0.2 on RHES 3.0 with w2k Clients. When i make the [homes] service available the clients can access the directory. But die directory will not be mapped on the Winows clients.

Hi Samba users. I have the following problem and I hope somebody can help me: I installed Samba on a White Box linux machine and used LDAP for authentication. I created a directory /work/shares. In /work/shares are all share directories created. The problem I'm having now is that the total capacity of each share is the same because they are on the same partition. (So /work/shares/test

I have Solaris 10 U7 that is exporting ZFS filesytem. The client is Solaris 9 U7. I can mount the filesytem just fine but I am unable to write to it. showmount -e shows my mount is set for everyone. the dfstab file has option rw set. So what gives?

There''s been another sighting of ZFS on Mac. The latest developer release of Leopard (Mac OS 10.5) has a dialogue box calling out the "Zettabyte File System (ZFS)" as an option. The first publication I saw this is a French website called Mac4Ever - http://mac4ever.com/ news/27485/zettabyte_sur_leopard/ I put up a Babelfish translation at my site, http://storagemojo.com/?

Does Samba have any max filesytem limitations. In particular can both 2.2.8 and 3.0 support 2TB+ filesystems. For now, I am thinking of 6TB max, so I don't need to know about Petabytes or Exabytes. The other side of the question, is can Win9x, Win2K, etc. work with filesystems over 2 TB. If the above is in a FAQ somewhere, a url would be great. Greg -- Greg Freemyer
