similar to: Configuring smbfs and general samba confusion

My apologies in advance if this is considered off-topic, but I'm trying to install a Linux devel kernel (2.1.53) and Linus' CHANGES doc tells me I need smbfs 2.1.0 to compile the SAMBA stuff. Installed SAMBA: 1.9.18p5-50.6 Installed smbfs: 2.0.1-2 Question is: I can't find any smbfs code later than 2.0.1-2 on ftp.redhat.com. I've looked at the SAMBA pages and used the search

Vlad. I still got the same problem - 'ls | wc -l' returned incorretc numbers. I installed the following patches with the sequence vs. the kerner 2.4.18: 1. 00-smbfs-2.4.18-codepage.patch.gz 2. 01-smbfs-2.4.18-lfs.patch.gz 3. 02-smbfs-2.4.18-unicode.patch.gz 4. smbfs-2.4.19-pre9-readdir.patch After installed patches, I ran 'make modules' and so on. Any more

I know smbfs is not samba, but perhaps somebody here has seen this error before. Basically, I can't use smbfs: [root@pandora samba]# mount //buildmaster/andreas -o username=andreas -t smbfs /mnt/smbfs added interface ip=10.0.17.30 bcast=10.0.23.255 nmask=255.255.248.0 error connecting to 10.0.16.6:445 (Connection refused) Password: [root@pandora samba]# ls -la /mnt/smbfs ls: /mnt/smbfs:

I periodically see smbfs questions get asked on this list, and they usually get one of two responses: 1. smbfs is a kernel module; this list is not the appropriate place to be asking smbfs questions. 2. You should be using cifs instead. (Please let me know if either if these is incorrect.) I was surprised to see, however, that the smbmount / mount.smbfs manpage makes no mention of cifs as being

I'm using Samba & smbfs to make directories on a Linux file server available across a switched Gigabit network. Unfortunately, when mounting the shares to another Linux system with smbfs, the performance is terrible. To test the setup, I created both a 100mb and 650mb file and transferred them with ftp, smbclient, and smbfs (mounted share). I also used iperf to send each file, just out of

First I will apologize for posting my patch here if this is not the correct place to post a patch. I know that smbfs is being removed, but we still use it and need it to work. We have a patch to contribute back to the smbfs in the 2.6 kernel. I have noticed multiply posts on this issue and we have basically patch the smbiod.c to fix the reconnect bug in 2.6 Something we did for our patch is

Hello everyone I have recently reported problems reading a certain directory from an NT server on this list (and speculated in causes). I have a few workarounds and now I'm looking for some feedback on what the proper fix is and for people to test if my patch works for them. Please test smbfs with and without the patch on the directory in this zipfile (all files are empty):

Hi! Here's a patch that allows Linux smbfs to list large directories (i.e. > 100 items) when talking to an OS/2 server. There is a misunderstanding about the flags sent in the FINDFIRST request which causes the OS/2 server to indicate an EOS (end of search) in the FINDFIRST response, even when there are more items to be listed. The result is that smbfs will display only the first ~120

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right group/list for this type of help, so I appologize if it isn't, and ask if you can please direct me to the right place. I am trying to mount a NAS Samba share to my RHEL 4 machine to run backups and am running into some slight issues / error msgs with it. I am not sure what samba version the NAS is running, however. It is a Maxtor Shared Storage

I continue to have the same problems in Samba 2.0.6 with smbfs that I was seeing in 2.0.5: (1) After a mount (mount -t smbfs etc.), the volume is often not yet fully mounted. For instance, if I write a Perl script like: system('mount -t smbfs -o password=pwd //MACHINE/SHARE /mnt/machine_share'); system('find /mnt/machine_share > find.out'); the 'find' may not find

dear smbfs maintainers! i sent this mail to you, since i got no answer from sending it to the "M:" entry of SMBFS. _______________ i had problems with setting permissions on a mounted smb file system. therefore i took a look at the smbfs code and a suspicious code part caught my eye. IMHO the patched line can't be correct, because comparing uids to gids doesn't make any sense.

Hi GNU command 'cp' normally looks for the block size of the destination and then uses such buffer to copy the file. Unfortunately you are settings block size for smbfs filesystems as 512 and using 'cp' then wastefully generates a lot of small (for ethernet) packets. I was surprised that using 'cat a >/net/b' is almost TWICE as fast than the traditional 'cp a

Hello I have updated my version of how to get "nls" working in smbfs for the changes made in the 2.2.16pre2 Linux kernel (both nls and smbfs). It is now a bit smaller and perhaps cleaner (except for the CONFIG_SMB_NLS, that could be removed, and the nls_utf8 abuse :) Also, it now uses an ioctl to set the codepages to use (borrowed from the work by Artem V. Ryabov). This allows you to
