-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Folks, I've uploaded the *final* 3.0.23c roll up patch to http://samba.org/~jerry/patches/patch-3.0.23b-3.0.23c-gwc-2.diffs.gz. I've already cut the 3.0.23c tarballs so unless there is a major problem, this will be the final change set. Please report *any* bugs that you find. I'd like to wrap this one up and do the public 3.0.23c

Mates, The saga continues, but THANK GOD 'make revert' WORKS. Here is my problem. I am trying to compile 3.0.7 from source and install it on my Mandrake 7.2 box. The gcc compiler is 2.95.3. Here is what I have done: [stop samba] # ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-smbmount # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start Here is what I get: [root@Nemesis david]# tail

Mates, I have configured samba 100 times, but this time, I'm doing something increadibly stupid that I just cannot see. Please HELP! I'm about to jump...... Background, Old samba sever (nemesis) being replaced with new one (bonza). Both are up and operating. All networking is OK, Name resolution is fine, etc. The problem is that all users can see all the shares on the

Hi, I have somewhat successfully got Samba working where as users can map the drives to their win2k/xp workstations and wrote to the folders they are given permissions to. They can write to the folder, delete folders, write files, delete files, view the file listing, however, they can't open files. For instance, if there is a word document, they can't just double click on the share and

Listmates, I have had a few boxes where the 'matchname' message is filling my syslog with one new message ever ~40 seconds or so. No performance problems, just the log annoyance. An example of the messages are: Jan 11 13:43:03 nemesis smbd[2246]: [2010/01/11 13:43:03, 0] lib/util_sock.c:1685(get_peer_name) Jan 11 13:43:03 nemesis smbd[2246]: Matchname failed on Adrienne-PC.rbpllc.com

Mates, In following chapter 35 "How to Compile Samba" I have looked at ./configure --help and I have a few questions. Originally I installed 2.0.9 via RPM, and of course there are no longer RPMs for mdk 7.2. On 7.2, smbd and nmbd are installed in /usr/sbin. The docs are in /usr/share/doc/samba-2.0.9. I don't know where the rest of the pieces of the puzzle were scattered by

Hello. I need to allow one of my users to add & delete shares on my Samba server through the 'server manager' applet on his client . This same user also writes some files to the same Samba server. I don't want the files that he writes to be owned/written by 'root' . The way I understand the 'add share command' currently, this is not possible. Am I missing

Can someone verify that testparm in 3.0.7 always reports the [printers] share as browseable = no ? I think this is a bug in 3.0.7. It might be affecting smbclient listing of printer shares too. Misty

Hi all, I installed SuSe 9.1 with Samba 3.0.4-suse. I can not get the smbd to start from swat, but nmbd is running, When I start smdb and nmbd with the SWAT restat then ps -A shows that the processes are there and it seems to run, but not according to the 'status' of swat. Copying files from samba and printing with the shared printers work though. The printers show "access denied, no

I down loaded the Acrobat Reader but I still cannot view the form 1192 W-8 Certificate of Foreign Status. Maybe I'm not following the instuctions correctly or something stupid. Can you e-mail me back a copy of this form so I can read it and see how to follow up on federal tax avoidance? I might purchase your product if you can better convince me on how to legally get it done.

My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users can access there home shares from Windows clients. I have read the instructions at http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/pppd/final-report.pdf, but I can't make it work. Don't know if is due to my lack of skills or has something to do with the Popop functionality in FreeBSD. Following the instructions, i made a

I have a small Samba 2.2.1a plus Win2k workgroup. Samba is running on Redhat 7.2. There is a networked laserjet 5000 using a static IP which I can print to successfuly from the linux box, and from the win2k workstations via the queue on the linux box. The weird thing is that, on the win2k worksations, if I double click on the printer icon the status of the printer is reported as "Access

Hi, I know little to nothing about samba so need some advice on a problem I'm having. One of my users is trying to mount a UNIX directory onto his PC and gets the error "not authorised from this station". He was able to do this until he had his hard drive swapped out. Desktop have said they all settings are as they were previously and that this is a UNIX issue. Other users on the

Hi guys, Unfortunately this is still happening I've tried restarting Samba. Users who should be denied access after 21:00 are being denied access at 19:00. Our time zone in South Africa is GMT+2. Perhaps I should set the timezone on the server to UTC/GMT ? Do you think this will help ? Should I then leave the time set to the current time in South Africa ? Or should I set the time to the

Hi - Is there a way to tell Samba to use the NT_Create_AndX style of commands (vs SMB_COM_OPEN)? Thanks, Zach
