Centos samba version is 3.0.10 which is the package that comes with the disto - is the only way to upgrade to the latest samba 3.0.24 is to recompile the samba source? I have tried "yum update samba" however it says 3.0.10 is the latest so i downloaded 3.0.24 and tried rpm -Uvh or yum localinstall but i get the following dependency errors to # yum install

Hi all. I have some complaints from Win XP users. Win XP clients regularly lost samba share - mapped as network drive. I don`t see any errors in logs. 1. I have 4 linux machines, with mapped SAMBA 3.5 shares as CIFS. - never lost. 2. Some Windows XP clients have this problem, but some is not. Why i ask ? Because the same clients did not lose a mapped network drive while was WIN 2003 Server.

I have a Samba AD running Samba 4.7.5. Everything was working fine, when, seemingly out of the blue, the users started to be denied access to all shares. If I try from a Windows 7 or Windows 10 machine, logged in as a user in "Domain Uses", I get: "Windows cannot access \\server-name\share_name. You do not have permission to access \\server-name\share_name" If I use

Hi all, I need to mount a Windows share locally on my laptop. However, I cannot do this via sudo mount -t smbfs //host_name/share_name /local_mount because the host_name has two IP addresses with it as shown by nmblookup //host_name.
