similar to: edited tdb... restart samba?

Hello All -- We are trying to consolidate our printer management from a series of NT print servers to a series of Samba ones, in a global network with ten offices and about 150 printers. All printing is PostScript and goes to HP and Canon printers over lpd through custom 'if' filters which do accounting. To help this we're trying to automate the printer and driver registration

I have installed windows printer drivers and it worked but now I need to remove several. I have tried everything I can find but nothing will get rid of them. Using "remove" from a winxp machine in "server properties" won't work. It claims they are in use. I'm not sure what "in use" means. Nothing is printing and the drivers should be local. I've

I may have a clue. I have two servers running Samba 3.2.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both. On the Member Server when I access the [Projects] share everything works as expected. When I access the [Windows] share I get prompted for a user name and password but no combination

Hi, we are using samba 3.0.24 as a printspooler for 80 network printers with a 500kB ntprinters.tdb for some years now. When we recently restarted samba we noticed that the ntprinters.tdb automatically shrinked to 24kB and printing was no longer possible. tdbdump of the original tdb-file is impossible too: "Failed to open ntprinters.tdb" The strange thing about this: we can solve

Hello, I am trying to migrate a samba printing server (with cups). (3.0.10fc3) by renaming it localhost=drlinux=the test machine newscribe=the production machine I did the following operations : 1/ Install a basic samba and cups 2/ copy all the configuration files and other from our running samba to our test server (including all tdb files ..) 3/ Adding the new server to the domain net rpc join

In /varcache/samba/ I have several .tdb files. Like brlock.tdb, locking.tdb, ntdrivers.tdb, etc. Excusing my ignorance, what are these files, and what do they do? And why must they be copied when migrating from one samba server to a new one?

Hi all, we've been moving an old Samba 2.2.x PDC install to a Samba 3.0.28 PDC install. We copied the ntdrivers.tdb and ntprinters.tdb from to old to the new server. After the migration, everything was just fine, except printing seemed to be somewhat slower. As more and more user logged on, the machine got really sluggish and printing took quite long. We figured out we've got bitten

Hello. I'm trying to find a way to administer a (set of) standalone samba machines (3.x style) locally. Most things are now done using `net rpc' command. But this one connects to a (local) samba server over network, and hence requires auth. Another example is pdbedit tool which accesses local passdb.tdb file directly as long as user running this command has the necessary permissions.

Hi, After using the client driver for a long time, I want to give a try to the drivers installed on Samba server. I am using the how-to at http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/classicalprinting.html It goes fine up to "installing drivers into [print$] using APW". I can see a list of drivers files growing into W32X86. But when I try to access the properties of a

Hi Everyone, I was wondering I am setting up a BDC at another physically separate location on a different subnet, and I am currently working on what files I need to have copied between the computers and which need to be made on each server. The specific question I am dealing with is what TDB files I need to replicate filesystems between the two servers. Below is a list of what the files I

My samba has been setup in its current configuration for around 9 months and has worked without a problem, over the weekend my windows boxes were unable to access the samba shares. Using SWAT I found that the smbd was not starting. I have tried the following: Trying to start smbd (as root) from the cli with: smbd start Seems to execute the command and gave no errors but still swat says that

I am running debian sarge 2.4.27-3-686 and samba version 3.0.14a-Debian . The previous machine was running rh 7.3 (valhalla) 2.4.20-29.7.progeny.11, samba version unknown. I have restored all shares and directories. Most of users can access everything, however our login script will not run. For those users that cannot log in re-joining them to the domain not only works but then the login

Background: FREEBSD 11.2 - SAMBA 4.10.15 Hello everyone, Good evening/afternoon/morning. I am trying to "reuse" the TDB database to my portal, where I want to store basically 3 information: IP address , Name, TimeStamp - where IP would be the KEY and "NAME,TIMESTAMP" would be the VALUE. I am using the tdbtool to insert/store data successfully (like the example below)

I'm running: # smbd -V Version 3.0.24-2.28-1354-SUSE-CODE10 In a 600 print queues print server, but I'm experiencing a low performance while using the first queue. I was attaching ltrace/strace to some processes with "use mmap=no" and I found a BIG difference in information gathering in ntprinters.tdb between the first and the last print queue (using alphabetical sorting).
