similar to: Migrating an existing NT domain to samba

I just took on a new client who is having a curious problem with mangled names. Here's the history as I understand it: Originally they were on an NT server and there was no issue. My predecessor moved them to a samba server running on gentwo. I do not know what version of samba or how he moved the data, but when he did so, any files and folders with more than 8 characters started

Brad, I found your posting of 2/20/2004 with the subject line of "upgraded to 3.0.2 -> funkyness in machine accounts" while investigating a similar problem. I upgraded to 3.0.2 last week from 3.0.0. I have a system which I just added to the domain successfully. However, when I attempt to log a domain user onto that machine, I get this error: The system cannot log you on to

While I wait for an answer to my last question, allow me to ask another. When we upgraded a samba server from 2.x to 3.0.0-2mdk using LDAP, we managed to change the domain SID. Instead of fixing the SIDs on the sever, I re-added the hosts to the domain. Although it was a lot of work, it was successful on most of the systems on the network. However, we have one old NT4 box on the network

I'm seeing some very slow setup times. Here's what I did. I started ethereal while things were running fine and then I waited until my windows box didn't show up in findsmb (I have keepalive set to "yes", so I don't see why it times out at all). I then went into "My computer" which was very slow. When I look in ethereal, I see some interesting nubmers in

Hi, I'm running 3.0.4 and have had several reports from users both using Office and Lotus where the application tells them that the file is already in use when we know it isn't. (BTW, there's a typo on the man page under "lock spin count". "acquired", not "aquired".) Chris -- Chris Garrigues http://www.DeepEddy.Com/~cwg/ Trinsic

nmbd has been dying on me occasionally. I'm running mandrake 9.2 with samba3-server-3.0.0-2mdk. We've got our users in ldap but I'd seen this symptom previously when I was using an earlier version of samba that didn't support ldap. There is nothing useful in the logs and a PS shows a nmb process still running. This last time around, I had a ptrace running on both nmbd

What does it mean if a windows XP consistently doesn't show up in findsmb even when it does show up in smbstatus? Also, I don't know if this is related or not, but the same machine sometimes shows up in smbstatus with two different PIDs. We've seen this with two different machines, both running XP. Here's smbstatus output (the machine in question is accountingiii): Samba

I'm concerned about the machine known as accountingii in the below smbstatus: Samba version 3.0.5pre2-SVN-build-1326 PID Username Group Machine ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2727 bbeerman users bbeerman1 (10.2.240.172) 30957 llawrence users df2x1121 (10.2.240.190) 28942

A user who had not been using the server for about half an hour had to wait for over a minute before the samba server would respond. This is using samba3-server-3.0.2a-2mdk. I hope to upgrade to 3.0.4 as soon as Buchan has the RPM ready. In the below log, the user tried to log in at about 10:27 or so. I think I'm not learning anything from this log, so I've also attached part of

Im going to install a samba domain at 4 of my sites but I trying to take of the best way to do this. going to have siteA, siteBm, siteC, and siteD. There will be an ipsec between all sites. In the past if i had to do a setup like that would to a box at each site and from there I would make rsync the samba passwd file to all the sites to keep logins in sync. Is there a better ways to to this?

Hello, we are using a Samba server (3.0.2a) here at work. It's running on a dual 1.4ghz opteron with two 250gig HD. Everything seems to be running fine except for AutoCad (which is the main program we run). Any time we try to save it can take up to 10 seconds, or each time we try to print it can take about the same amount of time to bring up the print dialog. I am only serving about 6

I can't figure out how to quote a colon in a filename that I'm trying to push so that it doesn't think everything in front of the colon is a hostname.

Hello list Our central fileserver is a Samba 3.0.25b on Solaris 9 and has 10'000 users (several hundreds at the same time). This week it died on us and when I inspected the machine, it was out of 8GB Memory and 16GB Swap because thousands of smbd processes were running. netstat -na showed that many hundreds of connections to port 445 were in CLOSE_WAIT state. We first thought it could be

Well, as Andrew shouted at me again this weekend it's getting to be about that time.... :-) :-). Yep, we're thinking we should do an official 2.2 Samba release early next week, so if you have anything you can't live with, now would be a good time to tell us.... :-). It's been gestating longer than an elephant, so it's really time to let it out into the world and do its own
