Hi, I'm running the Debian samba 3.0.10-1 package. I have 'log level = 0'. However my logcheck is showing a lot of noise from samba. Are the following messages normal, or do we have a misconfiguration? (We don't seem to have any problems accessing the shared samba shares): Mar 31 12:13:31 sd01 nmbd[3150]: [2005/03/31 12:13:31, 0]

Hi there!! I 'm changing the distribution from Suse8 to Fedora Core3. I have installed a new PDC server with : fedora core3, openldap, samba, and smbtools (that was included in samba) All sw above mentioned were installed with fedora core3. Now, I have my server working but.. I can't add a new machine (wXP) to this domain server. All my configuration are ok (samba+smbtools+openldap),

Hello. I've got a Samba server and I'd like it to be master browser and everything else except domain controller (the customers wants a workgroup, not a domain). Lately a Windows 2003 server was added to the net and then I guess it was removed. I keep getting messages like the following in the logs: > Apr 10 03:07:51 apocalypse nmbd[57552]: [2005/04/10 03:07:51, 0]

Since that I removed one of the interfaces of net of the server, the Samba presents problems generating following log: ec 13 09:41:46 sfs nmbd[2503]: [2005/12/13 09:41:46, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail(488) Dec 13 09:41:46 sfs nmbd[2503]: get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail: Dec 13 09:41:46 sfs nmbd[2503]: Doing a node status request to the domain

I've the following error : Doing a node status request to the domain master browser at IP aaaa.bbbb.cccc.dddd failed First time I configure my smb.conf file on a server with the adress aaaa.bbbb.cccc.dddd For some raison I have to change this address for another. When I restart samba I the message : nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail(486)

The message below is appearing in my log file. I wonder why nmbd thinks it needs to "do a status request" to that IP address? It is another server here but does not run samba. I have been trying to make is stop this without any luck so far. Does anyone know how? Thanks, Bill Dec 4 08:27:43 apss nmbd[5048]: [2008/12/04 08:27:43, 0]

LS, Some time ago I pensioned my old Server. But old soldiers never die; My logs keep coming up with the following 'Error': nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail(485) get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail: Doing a node status request to the domain master browser at IP 192.168.11.2 failed.

For some reason the Macintosh machines on our LAN have started taking over as master browser without actually providing. Mostly these are Leopard machines, and one Tiger machine. We had OS Level set to 255 and that does not seem to make a difference.

I can't figure out what's wrong with my config, I can see the share \\beata\anders, but not store0 or store1; # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file.

Hi, I'm using samba-2.2.7-2 in RH 8.0.

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to use different driver file downloads for different printers on the system? As of what I can see in all doc-files I can only use ONE set of drivers for all added printers? F.x. I have one printer that is handled by CUPS' PPD system, and one printer that uses RAW. So, the first printer (PPD) should have its feed in postscript format from

This is a little of a new experience for me, I am a bit of a novice. I have usually been able to stumble around documentation and other mailing lists to figure out problems, unfortunately I have struck and issue that has me going around in circles ... I have set up a VPN between three locations using openvpn (device = tun ), two satellite locations (referred to as B & C) talking to a

Hi! I'm experimenting with SuSE Linux and Samba 2.2.5 as a PDC, so far, everything works perfectly well, aside from that if I store an .exe file on a network mapped drive (from the Samba server) it can't be run? The workstation is a Windows XP Pro SP1, connecting to the Samba running as a PDC with LDAP backend. The machine and user logon works perfectly, but I can't execute .exe

Is it possible to send a pop-up message to all connected Windows stations in a whole domain via one command, or is it necessary to send one message per command to each station? It must be a command line utility since X isn't running on the server. Anders Norrbring

I'm not sure if this even SHOULD work. I can't find anything really useful in the documentation. I have a RedHat 7.3 system in the DMZ of our network, its address is 192.168.222.10, broadcast address is 192.168.222.254 I firewall, linux based with 3 ports, the 192.168.222.0 net (DMZ), the "outside world" on one port and the internal network is 192.168.111.0, broadcasting

I simply wonder if I can have several different logon script bat files for MS Win users that validates through my Samba PDC? Let's say that group "users" should have logon batch users.bat and the members of the group "sales" should have both users.bat and sales.bat executed at logon? Or can I in some way use ONE script with parameters that knows about what groups the user

Hi! I was thinking, is there a way to use a linux box with Samba running in the DMZ of a firewall and to validate logons from the internal network? I.e. the users workstations are on the protected net on 192.168.111.xx and the Samba PDC resides in the DMZ, running subnet 192.168.222.xx. If it's possible, what ports need to be open? Anders Norrbring

Is 'net use x: /home' deprecated nowadays? I just upgraded a very old Samba 2 to 3.2.8 and suddenly no workstations at all can use that command to map to their home directories. Workstations are W2k, Win XP and Vista in a mix. Neither work. Samba use LDAP as back end, and the related posts in smb.conf are these: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\.msprofile logon script = login.bat logon home

Well, I wasn't really awake I guess.. It's just a script that calls GhostScript for pdf generation.. But the question still stands, what IS the best quality printer driver to use for GhostScript -> pdf printing? We need both colours and high resolution.. ------------------------ Hiya! Can anybody recommend what the best Windows XP printer driver is to generate pdf documents with

Hi! I am having some trouble with a samba domain distributed over 2 subnets (192.168.0.0/23 (supernetted) & 192.168.4.0/24). These subnets are linked over the internet through a IPSec gateway to gateway (network to network) connection (i.e. all machines can reach/ping each other on both subnets). The samba PDC (with LDAP backend) has IP 192.168.0.4 and there is a BDC (LDAP slave) in
