similar to: Getting Owner of Files on Mounted Windows Share

Hey there, After searching for quite some time I'm finally just going to ask the people who know :) I'm having trouble when listing the files on a samba share that's hosted on a Mac OS X 10.4 server. The client is an Kubuntu Dapper Linux machine. This happens only when using smbmount (smbfs) and not when I use Konqueror with smb:// . The problem is that files with certain characters

I have a samba pdc. I would like to automatically assign at next logon a disk share with a particular letter that is the same for a group of users (such as L:\). How can I see with samba and/or windows tools what are currently the disk labels used by this group of users so that I can choose accordingly? And in general, is there any smb.conf or other config option that lets me set a unique disk

Hi, i upgraded from Debian sarge to etch, so from samba 3.0.14a-3 to 3.0.24 When someone creates/modify a file the user attribut is set to r (instead of rwx) so the next time a user opens the file is's on read only. What can i do so that the file keeps the attribut rwx for the owner ? Another question : the file has the rigthts : -r--rwx--- but although the user is member of the group

I want to configure samba to produce a common area (i.e. /home/shared) as an assigned drive letter to all users. Thus, in addition to users logging into the domain and having an H: drive for their personal account, they will also get an S: drive (for example) for a common area. How do I configure this in smb.conf? Thanks. Scott

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen a weird problem in one of my clients. The reported that when issuing a smbmount command (both client and server are CentOS 4.4), it would take up to 30 second for the mount to complete. To make a long history short, by using strace and the source, I noticed smbmnt is first calling mount() using ascii options for *data. Then that would

I'm having issues trying to remount any shares using samba. Super Short version mount -o remount /some_windows_share creates a duplicate mount instead of properly remounting. Full details... I have many shares served off of NT4 boxes, mounted via samba on a linux box (RHEL 4). Since long dormant (>12 hour) shares from one server in particular always have problems for a few seconds when

Hi There, I would like to use samba to connect from a Linux redhat 9 machine to a Windows 2000 machine(On the same network) and copy files to the Windows Machine through a share. Is this dificult? --- arcX

Hello everyone, I have two domains, let's call them D1 and D2. D1 is: - heavily modified, cumbersome, Linux RH 7.3 based, - samba 2.2 based, - using the old LDAP samba schema, - implementing Unix services/Windows logon SSO via the means of the LDAP schema with Kerberos added in the picture. D2 is: - stock, clean Linux RHEL4 based, - Samba 3.0.11 based, - using the newer Samba SAM LDAP

//winserver/winshare /linuxdir smbfs username=username,password=password, this line doesn't work for me in fstab in CentOS 5 to mount a Windows share, it works in other versions of RH. Any Ideas? Will using Windows NFS server/client (some reading required) work better than Samba?

I've set up Samba on Mac OS X to do pass through authentication to the nt domain in AD several times now. No big deal, it usually just works. Now, however, it doesn't appear to be working. Note the relevant part of the transaction below (loglevel 4). Steps to replicate: a) Add pre-Win2K account with AD Users and computers b) sudo smbpasswd -j EXAMPLE -r WINSERVER -U

Relatively new to R, I'm trying to do a relatively simple task. I have data set that has several variables arranged by SubjID and visit, with multiple observations for that combination. I do linear regression on those multiple observations, then generated a set of interpolated values from the regression at fixed intervals along "x". I now want to average each of those across all the

Dear samba users/developpers, I would like to make stats on user desktop login/logout and I ask myself if it's possible to do this on the samba PDC. But it doesn't seems to be so easy. Maybe parsing logs or using smbstatus? Is there anyone who did something like this and who can share he's knowledge ;) Or maybe it's ... impossible to get accurate datas about this, I don't

I built a small embedded samba server based on Samba 3.0.26b. I tested it locally with XP Pro running in a vmware VM. All worked fine, so I shipped it. Turns out the person using it is running XP Home. Here's her note: I have restarted the computer and waited ten minutes and still nothing. All that comes up is the mshome under the Microsoft Windows Network. So it looks like all

Hi, I have a problem with Samba (although it may be my hardware, I'm not sure). I have a Linux i386 Samba server that I use for storing music, pictures etc in a small home network which isn't that busy. When I stream music to my laptop I get periods of silence which coincide with periods of network inactivity. These can last up to 50 seconds and can be seen on both the Linux and PC

I've seen more and more occurrences of the following error (other people have different password servers) on the web. I submitted this question before, but it was never resolved. I've even tried changing the underlying file system (from clustered vxfs to ext3) and I still see the error. Error: [2007/10/17 08:29:33, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal(82)

Dear Sirs. We have csv reports that are created on a unix server automatically via a cron job. We are looking at putting these reports in a shared area / work out a way of sharing a unix device to windows machine like mapping a network drive. The only product we have found that can possibly do this is samba. Because we are a large company ('BRITISH TELECOM') we really need a version of

Hi, Yesterday I found big problems concerning my roaming profiles. They seem to work on some computers where they are always used, on some other the did not load properly (i.e. a default profile was loaded instead).
