Hi, I'm developing a script for "lpq command". It would need a %U option so that the script can know which user asked for the job list. Currently, lpq command seem to only serve %p. Is there any hope to get %U ? I see that my script run as root, so I assume the calling user info is lost ? TIA, Charles -- Charles Bueche <charles@bueche.ch> sand, snow, wave, wind and net

Hi, I'm running 1.0rc6 on Solaris/SPARC, compiled myself against openssl. Client is Evolution 2.6.2 on my gentoo x86 laptop. As Dovecot is not yet productive, we run it parallel to UW-imap, on other ports. I use TLS. If I configure my evolution client with server-type IMAP, everything works fine. However, dovecot claims IMAP4rev1 support. However, when I set server-type to IMAP4rev1 in

When I start writing a mail, it appears in the drafts folder, and usually disappear as desired when I hit "Send". It then appear in the "Sent" folder. Sometimes, a draft versions stays in

I disable window file sharing; 2. in putty, i add a tunnel: ???? source port: 445 ???? destination port: my linux box IP: 139 ? ?I forward 80. i see http://127.0.0.1 yields my web server's start page. 3 i also use secpol.msc and change local policies -> security options. By default

Hi all, We are having a difficult time with Samba 2.2.7a on AIX. Since XP clients appeared, we see growing leaked resources on our ATM network adapter buffers. Stopping Samba frees all leaked buffers. The short-term fix is to stop/start samba in a cron job. Hideous quirk at best. The local network admin traced the SMB exchanges, and found that some applications don't generate "SMB

Hi all, I'm progressing through an issue we have at a large customer site. We have slowly eliminated the basic issues, but the main problem remain : the Samba server stacks up staled connections/sockets up to max, until the service breaks. A restart flush the staled connections and Samba works again. platform : IBM 4-cpu server runing AIX 4.3 Samba : 2.2.7a compiled with gcc 2.95.3

Hi, I have Samba 3.0.4 on Solaris 9, recent patches applied. Samba is integrated in domain (security = domain). I have compiled and configured winbind, but not pam and no ldap. Ncsd is stopped. Winbind works OK, I can connect to share and users get mapped on-the-fly to UNIX uids and gids in the ranges specified in smb.conf. My config is included below with some tweaks to protect the innocent.

After some more screwing around with leaving and rejoining the ADS domain I was finally able to access a share with "valid users =" set to a domain group I was a member of. The _only_ change I made after this was to add yet another group to the valid users on the share and restart samba...after that I could no longer access the share. I removed the additional group, restarted samba and

Hello friends, I am using samba to join a linux box to an active directory domain to use as a file server. I would like to be able to control access to shares based on AD domain groups. However, even though winbind seems to be seeing the groups fine, samba is not granting access to users who are members of the group. I am able to successfully join the system to the domain and granting access to

Hello! I would like to put user login attempts into SQL DB (PostgreSQL). Any idea how to do it (without manual parsing log files)? Kind regards, Krzysztof Kiszewski

Dear listmembers, a few weeks ago i've installed a server based on openSUSE 10.0 and Samba 3.0.20 in addition to two existing Windows 2003 servers. My aim is to replace the Windows servers in medium term. The Samba server uses Kerberos v5 to authentificate the users against the W2003-Server. The W2003-Server ist the primary domain controller, the other W2K3-server is the "backup domain

Hi all, we have a very large customer (90'000 PCs) worldwide that has problems with a Samba server. Here are the details : platform : IBM 4-cpu server runing AIX 4.3 Samba : 2.2.7a compiled with gcc 2.95.3 clients : about 100-200, worldwide network : ATM, at least for the server (I don't have more details, sorry) samba config : pretty straightforward, security=server (might be

Hey all, I'm having no luck getting new mail notification except in two mail folders (using maildir w/procmail delivery). I'm using three different clients (sylpheed-claws 1.9.14, Thunderbird 1.5.0.5 and a newer version of Horde). None of them are getting new mail in any except these two folders (inbox and 1 other). If I browse to the folders, still nothing. If I browse to the

Hello, I'm using dovecot-1.0.b9 on a FreeBSD 6.1 system. Usually we have 6 clients connected to dovecot through IMAPs. These clients are Thunderbird 1.5 programs. After some hours, one or two processed go up to 100% WCPU. As an example, this is what I see when I run 'top': last pid: 5111; load averages: 1.34, 1.82, 1.75 up 13+00:04:09 15:26:59 150 processes: 2 running,

After having scoured the net for a way to do SMB over SSH with Windows, I've tried everything I have found and I still can't get it to work. I'm using Windows Vista as the client and FC6 with Samba 3.0.24-1 as the server. I have set up a share and can successfully connect to that share with no ssh tunnel. I would like to tunnel SMB over SSH, so here is what I have tried: 1.

Dear List Members, We have been running Dovecot as an IMAP server for web based access to email for our customers. At the moment, when the server is under load, some users are finding that it takes 45 seconds to log in. I was wondering if any of you guys would have any tips. I would love any information that would help solve or debug this issue. Background information: The server is

Hello: I need to build a system like this for a client: I will have a Linux server in a data room. It will have a web interface where the users may upload files. The files may be: Word, Excel, PDF, tif files, etc. Now, using the web interface, they should be able to brig up a list of files, select a set to print and send them to a local printer that is running as a shared printer on a Windows

Hello, does anyone know if there is a tool in existence that can monitor samba shares like smbstatus but is much more advanced (and runs in console) , I mean a tool that has menues, some search options, and things sorted out nice. A Samba realtime monitor would be the best thing with lots of details and lots of options. I tried Swat, but that aint really a solution to watch who is connected
