Hi, I am trying to create a Samba share on /media/winshare with the owner as amandabackup instead of root. But as soon as I mount the Samba share on to the mount point, the permissions for the owner get reverted back to root instead of amandabackup. Attaching a snapshot of how it looks like. http://www.nabble.com/file/p10894282/samba%2Bquery.jpg -- View this message in context:

hey centos long time no hear! :) I'm having a small issue where the backup jobs that I set to run in the crontab of the backup user do not appear to be running.

Hi List, Happy New Years and I was hoping to get some help on an ssh issue that I am having. For some reason I am unable to scp to hosts on this network using RSA keys. Here is what I am doing/what is going on; scp the public key to remote host [amandabackup at VIRTCENT18 ~]$ scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa_amdump.pub amandabackup at lb1:~ amandabackup at lb1's password: id_rsa_amdump.pub

OK, after beating my head against the wall for an hour or so, I finally figured out why I could not ssh from a MacMini (running MacOSX 10.11.6) to my Linux Desktop (running CentOS 6), using the amandabackup account with public key authentification. SELinux! It seems the SELinux won't allow this if the target user's "home" directory is does not have a <mumble>_home_t

Hi, folks, I have a difficulty using a cifs connection... O/S: Mandrake 10.0, updated kernel, at 2.6.8.1-12mdk, running Samba 3.0.7 packages. I'm trying to mount, via CIFS a share on a Windows 2003 server. I have no control over the use of smb signing, so I need to use cifs, not smbfs (the organisation as a whole has over 25000 users, using numerous servers, almost exclusively Microsoft

On a small home network, I am trying to move from simple share based security = to user to openldap. I have simple share working fine, as long as no authentication is occuring. = Obviously not at all secure! The two immediate problems are when I go to security=3Duser on the NT authentication side I get: [Alan@Webby Alan]$ smbclient //webby/WinShare -U Alan added interface ip=3D192.168.0.5

I hope that someone reading this list can offer some suggestions on how I can incorporate external C libraries in C functions that I want to call from R. I have gone through all of the documentation, help files and mailing list archives and have not been able to find a satisfactory solution. I have constructed a simple example of the problem, since my "real" program is much more

hello list, I am attempting to ssh via a user account setup for amanda backups from the backup server to the test backup client. AFAIK everything is setup correctly yet when I ssh as the user to the client I have to type the password. the public key is in the authorized_keys file of the client and permissions all seem correct.

Hello all, We've been using samba version 3.0.4 on RH9 with success for quite a while now for shares on our domain (DOM1). Since this machine will have to be available in the near future in another domain (DOM2) as a webserver, and limited fileserver, another network interface has been added for the NIC. When browsing the shares from a WIN98SE computer in DOM2, we are able to see the

We are having difficulty setting permissions with Samba 3.0.2. Whenever we use the DOS attrib +r command to make a file read only (or through the file properties) we get an "Access Denied" error for all users except the owner. This happens even though we've setup our smb.conf to allow Administrator root access (smb.conf below), and the file is rwxrwxrwx. Here is our smb.conf file:

Hello, We are trying to add a 2nd samba server to our domain. We are using an NT 4.0 PDC and connecting to the PDC using winbind. Our network is relatively small - 25 computers. We have no Active Directory servers, no WINS servers, and the existing samba server running 3.0.11 has been running for 18 months with no issues. We are completely stuck trying to add a second server. We've
