similar to: Problem while accessing DFS links.

Hi, I'm trying to create a map of DFS links to actual server/share's. I know that you can get this information by logging on to the DFS root server, but I'm trying to use the libsmbclient API to get this information. I have created a fairly simple DFS structure on 2003 servers with everything on the same domain. //MyDomain/DFSRoot /Link1 -> //Fileserv-1/FileShare1 /Link2

I have setup a samba dfs server and file managers on linux only see broken symlinks. Is there a linux file managers that can handle the dfs symlinks correctly? So far I tried thunar, nautilus and Gnome commander. All is failing with the dfs symlinks. Commandline navigation seems to work fine through mounted volume and windows clients can navigate around the shared volume with explorer

Trying out the new DFS support in samba 2.2 i can't seem to get it to work. All the docs mention that a configure parameter is needed to build in dfs support. Do the binary rpms on the samba site have dfs support built in? I notice that if i give a bogus option in the smb.conf file it will complain about it in log.smb, would it complain about the dfs options if samba was built without dfs

Using Samba 3.0.9-Debian on Linspire 5.0.59. Server running is a Windows 2003 Server. I am trying to mount a share on the server but getting error message: cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it. 8919: protocol negotiation failed SMB connection failed In smb.conf I have changed setting "server signing = no" to "server signing = required" but

"cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and the server doesn't support it" Should mean that your Samba is too old for your clients. See badlocks bug to better view of your issue. See man smb.conf looking for "sign" into it. I believe - but I'm not sure - that the option you are looking for are: client ldap sasl wrapping = sign client use spnego = yes

Hello, I have a Samba DFS server set up (self compiled, running version 2.2.5) on a RedHat 7.3 box and I'm having a strange problem with my Windows 2000 clients. The problem occurs when we try to email a link to a file on the Samba server to another user. It happens with various types of files, but as an example, let's say I email a link to an Excel document to another user:

Hi, First, I will try to make my terminology clear: There are two "things" MS calls DFS: 1. Server/share DFS - in this case you can define a "virtual server/share" that when a client tries to connect to, the server will direct it to another, real, server/share to which the client should connect. The virtual server/share may contain one or more real server/share

Hello, I've got an Ubuntu Workstation integrated in an Active Directory domain. I'm really authenticated to the domain (with Kerberos clients, Winbind and Samba) and I can list the users of the domain with the wbinfo command. There's a DFS root share that is defined on each DC of the AD domain. When I try to mount that share with the mount.smbfs command : # mount -t smbfs

Hello list, I am trying to get a DFS share to work here, linking to a few Windows 2000, XP and NT machines. Using Samba 3.0.6 on Debian. I followed the instructions in chapter 17 of the official HOWTO collections and set it up like this: [global] ... netbios name = fileserver host msdfs = yes [dfs] path = /home/data/shares/postdfs valid users = @post force group = +post read only = No force

I'm working on solving an interesting problem. We've got some folks on the other side of a WAN link who are complaining about the very long load time they have for the really big files located on my server. There *is* a linux system on their side of the WAN connection with Samba already installed and it occurred to me that maybe a DFS setup would be helpful. Having never messed with DFS

Hello list I try to setup a DFS root like documented in the Samba HOWTO Collection Chapter 18. (using Samba 3.0.14a btw.) I setup everything as specified there, but when I try to access one of the linked shares from a windows machine, I get a message telling me the location is unavailable. Looking at the logs reveals: ---------------------------- 8< ---------------------------- [2005/04/20

Hi I want to mount the a share of a windows 2003 Domain Controler, but I'm not been able... Does any body knew a solution for that problem? Thanks.... here is the error message: <snip> root@r-pad:/mnt/max-ecom# mount -t smbfs -o username=mnicolas,password=sucker //192.168.200.99/Multimedia /mnt/ cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it. 11688: protocol

We had a new server put in on our local network and I am unable to mount it's file shares - mount -t smbfs works on the old server but it doesn't work on the new one because of the SMB signing problem. However, I cannot get mount -t cifs to work on either of them. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be? Thx vperry successful commands: 1) smbstatus calserver01 2)

> Which smb version are you using (mount option)? Support for DFS on smb2+ > was only added in linux 4.11. smbstatus shows the connection as NT1. DFS links do work like this: serverA_msdfsrootYES => serverB_msdfsrootNO But not like this: serverA_msdfsrootYES => serverB_msdfsrootYES Somehow the destination having 'msdfsroot yes' prevents the cifs kernel module from

Hi! I'm trying to connect to a share on a Windows 2003 server with samba 3.0.0. I have edited smb.conf as was instructed in chapter 7 of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection to include the following: client use spnego = yes When I try to connect to the server, I get the following error: cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it 2355: protocol negotiation failed SMB connection

Hi, I was trying smbmount (SuSE's samba-client-3.0.20b-3.4). The mount command replied: cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it. 9451: protocol negotiation failed SMB connection failed No I'd suggest to change the message at least: It's unclear who "we" is: The Samba Team, the client, or the server The server is a "Windows 2003 server",

Hi Guys- We are a group involved in a project to move an application from Windows to AIX, and part of the application involves reading OSF DFS shares, and making the filesystem available to Windows machines through SAMBA. The conversion of the application has gone well, but it is our first time using SAMBA and I have some questions that hopefully are not too dumb, and if they are, we would gladly

Background I have a network of machines behind an air-gap, therefore upgrades are a tedious business normally performed four times per year. The systems run various versions of CentOS and I use the Samba that is distributed with CentOS. Last weekend I updated the 5.7 machines with updates to 18 April 2016, not the current 5.8. Those of my users who run Windows boxes (Windows 7 Enterprise)
