similar to: Samba Stopped Connecting on Me and I don't know why

I manage a Samba server that has been working nicely for a couple of months (after it replace the old Samba server which worked happily for years). We use LDAP for accounts, but don't use domain logons or anything fancy. All users have their home dir on Samba mapped to drive 'M:'. In their home, there are symbolic links to various directories they're entitled to access. Links

Hello list, I don't know what is breaking my samba box but I am really very worried and confused !! My samba server has no problem with linux client. "smbclient -L <samba IP> -U <samba user>" runs well. No problem at all. But whenever I try to access the shares from Win-XP it reports that "path not found". And after repeatedly trying the same Win-XP

Hi, here is a client computer and a server computer (Debian Wheezy, armel, samba Version 3.6.6, IP address: 192.168.1.2, Name: xyz). Problem: wins doesn't answer nmblookups by the client on the broadcast address: client$ nmblookup -S xyz querying xyz on 192.168.1.255 name_query failed to find name xyz Why is that so? How to fix this? When I specify the the server IP I do get an answer:

As part of our deployment of FC updates we have upgraded our office server from 3.0.24-3 to 3.0.24.4. We got some strange results. Shares that have the same name as the users home directory and/or the same name as their users id became inaccessible. For example, my user id is kens, my home directory is in /home/kens and there was a share of it called kens. There is also a common share

Hi all Im pretty new to Samba. I would like to use Samba as a PDC, for some funny reason I cant browse the network. I cant find other machines on the network. The server says its a PDC, but my win clients (win2000) says its not.

Hi, I cant find any wins options in your smb.conf. I think you?ll need Wins for proper Network browsing.

One of my samba Domain controlers is trying to reach two IP addresses of 192.168.221.1 and 192.168.91.1. The samba server is not even on a 192.168 subnet. It is currnetly on a 172.16.12.x subnet. How can I trace this down? Why would the server look to access a 192.168 subnet? Can someone just point me in the right direction? Thanks for any info Here is a snipit from the nmbd log. If you

Hello, I'd be grateful for any hints or insight into the following messages which are being written to the log.nmbd file on my samba server "samba2000". samba2000 is running Samba version 2.2.8a.

I would like to understand how to make my samba-3.0.0 (-15, from Fedora Core 1) a PDC and how to make a XP/Pro box member of that domain and to add a domain user account, and eventually to ad a few more linux boxen as domain members into that domain. This is the output of the PDC box testparm (the PDC box has two eth interfaces, only eth1 (192.168.1.* and 127.0.0.1 should access the PDC):

Pardon me for resending the message, I am not sure whether the original message was posted at all. Mapping Samba shares from this particular server is either getting slow or rarely getting denied.

Hi, I am migrating a ubuntu server to a centos one. The ubuntu server is working and new server even tough it's running I can't join the domain from a new machine. The new server is not on production so the client (win xp) is connected via a crossover cable. The error message on the client is something like user/password invalid (I am using the root user/password of the server). The

Hello all, I'm in the process of moving over my Samba server (using LDAP). I believe everything is functioning correctly, except for this error I get when nmbd starts. Looking back at my old server, it was apparently doing this as well... so it may not even affect needed functionality. Still, I'd like to figure out why it's happening! If anyone has an idea, please let me

I have a domain named ADAMSTEST with the LDAP/PDC being gomer.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.3.37 and the BDC bldg2.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.7.2. nss_ldap is working, i can ssh in to both servers fine. I'm trying to have a Windows XP named domain2 with ip 10.8.7.254 join the domain using the WINS server of 10.8.7.2 in the network tcp/ip settings. So it should be able to join the domain by
