similar to: Network browsing problem and solution.

I have been having a heck of a time getting cross subnet browsing to work properly. After MANY hours hunting through source and debug logs, I have FINALLY found the source of my browsing issues. My Samba nmdb properly becomes the LMB for my segment on a WAN. I VPN to my servers at the home office and Samba attempts to sync with the DMB. nmbd properly locates the DMB via WINS over the

Hello, I have a samba 1.9.18p4 server running as a domain master browser on a subnet, with some clients distributed on other subnets. If there are only Win 95 clients on a subnet, browse sync works - but not if there are Win NT 4.0 SP3 machines on that subnet. Error from nmdb (at log level 3): sync_with_lmb: Initiating sync with local master browser MAILHEIDELBERG<0x20> at IP

Hi samba list. We have installed two unix machines running samba 2.2.2. Also, we have a NT server with an nt domain. Both samba servers belongs to TESTGROUP (we don't want to put samba into a nt domain). The things works fine, until we include two pc-clients into the same group. Those pcs cannot browse the network, also, they cannot see itself. The problem was solved when we include

Hello, sorry to bother you with probably another stupid question, but googl'ing didn't help here. Can someone give me an overview of how network browsing from windows workstations is supposed to work in AD networks? I have recently upgraded a samba server running an NT4-style domain with classicupgrade. The workstations are Windows 7 (with the registry fix applied to be able to join an

If you have 1 member server, you could enabe nmbd in that server. Or install : llmnrd on linux and/or avahi-deamon if you dont have a member. And make sure you can use "proxy dns" as in, The primary DNS domain on linux should match (see in windows) CMD: ipconfig /all The : - primay dns suffix - DNS Suffix search order Then you are able to use \\hostname or \\hostname.FQ.DN.TLD

Dear Samba-Users, I have to administer a Samba WINS Server in a heterogenous network. It's a student hostel with about 200 mixed (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X) computers. We have a DHCP, which delivers the WINS-Server address to the clients. I don't have access to the clients. The problem is, that the WINS-Server (Samba 3.0.27) looses the Master-Browser election irregulary. I can't

A reasonable alternative is to run Christgau's excellent Web Service Discovery host daemon (wsdd) on the samba server and make sure the Function Discovery Provider Host and Function Discovery Resource Publication services are running on the Windows 10 machines. Get wsdd from here: https://github.com/christgau/wsdd.git You can then stop and disable the nmbd on the samba machines as it's

SMBv1 (the anonymous thing behind network neighborhood) because of the massive security problems it caused was decprecated. Microsoft came up with network neighborhood and they've shut it down due to their bad implementation. Samba, likewise, doesn't support SMBv1 by default.

On my campus network, there's one wins server that can see every machine on every subnet. I want to provide access to all these computers to the W98 boxes in my workgroup. So here's what I did: I created my own workgroup, set myself to be the local browse master and domain master. So now everything works properly on my linux box (rh 6.0, samba 2.0.5a) and the W98 boxes in my workgroup

Hi, I'm trying to prepare migration from NT4 server to samba with ldap backend. For testing and simulating I have prepared one NT4 server, one Centos 5.5 samba server and now I have almost working setup for vampiring users and groups. Using following packages: samba3.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-cifsmount.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-client.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-doc.i386 3.5.7-43.el5

Scenario: One Samba server with multiple network adapters each hooked to a different network. Question: How can I configure Samba (nmdb) to show different shares when browsing the Samba server from clients connected to the different networks? Background: The nmdb is always running in a single instance, doesn't matter how often it is started. Regards Richard

Hi all, Thank you for your help, and sorry for my late answer. Everything works fine by now ! Yes, you have to become a BDC to vampire the accounts ! This is why I was getting an "Access denied" error : I thought my Samba was a BDC, but I forgot to add "domain logon = Yes" in my smb.conf, so Samba was a simple share server. Here is the steps I followed to suck the accounts :

Hi, I have a PC that is just for internet access, I don't want it to be able to access any of the windows or samba servers on the network.. I removed samba-client thinking this would solve the problem but the network can still be browsed via Nautilus.. Is there a way to disable network browsing through any of the GUI interfaces? Thanks..

greetings all samba gurus...... i am a student trying to configure samba for my lab..i have done it successfully before once...but this is a new server that i have installed redhat 7.1 (original ed) into... now the problems i am facing are this.. 1. my smbd and nmdb are running, but when i attempt to use smbclient on localhost, i *can not* do so from root account....only after i login as my

I'm trying to get cross-network browsing/domain logins working. In brief, I am very frustrated. We thought the initial problem was a browsing problem, but now it does not appear to be that. Even once the workstation can see the servers, it STILL cannot perform a Domain login, although it CAN access resources if I use the Ms Dos prompt and issue a 'net use ...' command. This

Hi you all, We are currently setting up a corporate wide file server using Samba 2.0.6 on a RedHat Linux Alpha platform. We only have Win98 clients, and the Samba server is doing net logons (no password encryption) and master browsing for the workgroup. The problem we have is that NMDB dies when a logon occurs with a username which is already logged. After that, Win98 freezes when you try to log

Hi all I'm a relative newcomer to samba, having a few problems with what I thought would be a fairly straightforward migration from an NT4 to a Samba PDC. Summary of what I've done so far: * Set up samba on a second PC and configured it as BDC. * VAMPIREd all of the accounts across to the BDC. * Shut down original NT PDC, installed Linux + Samba on same hardware. * Promoted second PC to
