My Windows XP SP3 clients aren't loading their logged_in_username.bat from my netlogon share, and I can't figure out why. It looks like in the log file the Windows PCs are loading the script, its just not executing it on the windows PCs for some reason, but if I click start, run, and type in \\roark\netlogon\scripts\jholland.bat it runs fine. Running samba 3.0.31 and here's the

Running Gentoo linux samba-3.0.23a I've used samba for quite some time but never have had to delve into its inner workings... Its always just worked. Recently I'm finding that when accessing linux shares from a winxp machine, I have read access, but no write. Far as I know the unix to samba user mappings as set correctly (and as they have been for some time) Near as I can tell the

Hi, I sent a mail a few days ago to this list related with GFS+samba problems. Since the, we have installed a sepparated test environment also with two linux servers where we have tested a samba server with an exported share in GFS. The share is read-only and only one server is exporting it. When we try to access from a single windows client it works fine, but when we try to access to the

Hi, 1) Creating a Folder on a my samba share works in general via WinXP, but setting the permission doesn't. On the new Folder <right click>+<properties>+<security tab> doesn't show any selected check boxes. After selecting a check box + <Apply> doesn't "save" it. I have to do this a 2nd time and then it work. 2) Can't select the permissions

I have a new SentOS 5 system and have been having problems with Samba. I had been able to access my test share but not my home share. Attempting to re-set thigns as describe by the "webmin configure samba" info resluted in being able to see everything but the home shares. I don't know if I could have copied or written to these other directories - didn't try. Continued

I am new to Samba, but not to Linux. I hope someone here can point me in the right direction. I have installed Samba and it appears to be working, at least as far as I have tested it. However, I have hit a snag in my testing. I have searched Google for several hours but I have not found a solution. On a Linux machine (named "annwn") running Fedora Core 6, I have set up a share, using

Hi all, I've included copies of the relavent files below. I'm having a bit of a problem with Samba in that when I try to access files on its shared resources, I can browse to the shares fine, but the moment I try to open a file, the client's file browser hangs. I've verified that this is a problem on both my Mac (OS X 10.3.4), my Windows XP SP2 and WIndows XP SP1 machines. I'm

Paul, >1. Which user is logged on the the windows workstation trying to modify >a file on the samba share? Henrique are user, this user is in the list of administrators of the samba, but he is not administrator of the PDC (windows 2003).

OS : Debian Etch. samba version : 3.0.24 I have a problem with a vendors software that won't install.

Hello, I'm running Samba 3.6.6-1 on my x64 Arch Linux installation. I recently decided to have my samba share support NTFS's Alternate Data Streams by using streams_xattr or streams_depot. With streams_xattr I discovered that if I copy a file having an ADS from a win7 box, on the linux console, I can see the ADS as an xattr attached to the file. However when I copy the file back to my

Guten Tag Samba-List, after updating my Linux-Server from Debian Etch to Lenny, some of my workstations (W2kSP4) couln't log into the domain. I removed the machines from the domain, changed the name, created a new machine-account, but I still can't add the machine to the domain. My /etc/smb.conf (see below the logfile) is unchanged since Debian Etch. Perhaps someone

Hi there, I'm having some issues with a samba PDC. Using debian etch, kernel version 2.6.18-6-686. I have samba-3.0.24, smbldap-tools-0.9.2, openldap-2.3.30, bind-9.3.4 and isc dhcp-server-3.0.4 with ddns on the same server, I can join and remove Windows XP machines from the domain but I have this Windows NT Workstation that can't join the domain at all. The error it gives is something

I've got Samba 2.2.3 running as a PDC for some Win9x and WinNT clients. Everything seems to be fine except that occasionally (but rather often, at least every second day) printing from one of the NT-clients is impossible. In the log file it says (word wrap here in the editor): [2002/02/26 18:04:21, 0] printing/printing.c:print_job_start(952) print_job_start: insufficient permissions to open

Hi, We have a major problem using Samba to access NFS mounted directories. The directory in question is on a Snap server running OS 3, and Samba is running on a new Sun V250 running Solaris 9; the NFS directory is mounted using udp. The problems occur when trying to load a file, which causes the samba process to crash. Another process starts automatically, crashes and so forth. However, the

I've attempted to do the same using Win2k's APW. At first it looks like it's going to work, but at the very last part it gives an access denied error. It gives the errors AFTER it copies all the files to the server... Here's the log.spleen (my win2k is spleen): unix_clean_name [W32X86/PSCRIPT.NTF] [2003/08/08 16:46:05, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(580) unix_clean_name

I'm not sure if this is a samba problem or just a problem with the app. I'm unable to an application from a shared drive "\\ucd01\protel\". I've mapped the network drive "k:\protel\"and the apps ini file points to it but gives me an error message suggesting it can't see the drive. XP can however and I can browse it in explorer. A strange thing is that when I

I was having a problem with my Samba PDC with LDAP backend. Some of my workstations (W2kSP4) couln't log into the domain.

Hello! I am trying to set up a domain for my home network, but I ran into problems. The situation: The Debian server has netbios name "server", there are more PCs, I will only talk about "pchrispc". The user I want to setup is "pappl". Here is what I did: Installed Samba, configured it correctly (domain master, netlogon, etc.), added the UNIX user pappl (with a

<Long Post, sorry!> Folks, I have a really nasty problem preventing me from migrating a bunch of NetWare 5 servers to Samba--attempts to copy large (> 2MB+) files to any samba share results in an error. To clarify what I mean by "error": 1. I attempt to copy, using explorer, a 2MB+ file to any samba share. 2. A 30 second or so pause occurs (copying this file to any other

Hi everybody out there! I'm using Samba 2.2.5, coming with SuSE 8.1 and should connect from an XP-Pro PC, really logged into an W2K PDC with Domain Account, to the Samba server mentioned above. Problem: Logged from XP-Pro client into W2K PDC account, I can not connect and always get a "System error 1240" (net use <drive:> \\SMBSERVER\share) which I also can not avoid doing
