similar to: findsmb works on mac osx but not linux

In 2.2.8a days, findsmb would print the OS and Server version of the machines it found, like this: *=DMB +=LMB IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION --------------------------------------------------------------------- 192.168.49.247 WINQA1 [QATEST] [Windows 5.0] [Windows 2000 LAN Manager] 192.168.49.250 WINQA2

I have a samba server 3.0.28a set up on ubuntu 8.04, which is accessed by a windows xp client. The windows machine can see and download all the shared folders from the linux machine, and the linux machine can download from the windows machine with smbclient. However, when I issue "findsmb" the linux machine only reports itself, not the windows machine. The man pages show it

Hello Herb, all. I recently played a bit harder with Samba, as I'm working on getting it set up for my sister (remotely). I came across Herb's old 'findsmb' perl script which got me a lot further along than I had been. I wanted to note a small patch I made in order for the script to deal with 'bad' characters in the machine names: --- /usr/bin/findsmb Mon Oct 12

Hi, Re: http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/samba/findsmb.1.html http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pb/NSLU2/NSLU2.html#S0500 Could you please advise whether or not "findsmb" should work on a WindowsXP machine?. *'findsmb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.* ** I'm trying to set-up a Linksys NSLU2 to run Apache, php and MySQL and am

We're running an older version of Samba on an Irix machine, and just got 2.0.2 working (finally!) on our Intel/Linux box. The odd thing, is that findsmb gives different results on the two systms. On Irix it lists the NetBIOS names with OS descriptions, but on Linux it lists the IP name and no OS description. I went through it line by line and found the first difference at: ../nmblookup -r

In hope and all googled out, have used the basic samba functions for some time. Have now installed a few RH ES3 & 4 machines and in the majority of cases, just have PC's access directories on the Linux servers and mount points from Linux to PC's. Have noticed, after the fact, that findsmd only finds itself. On the same network have two Linux machines Redhat 7.2 findsmb gets all

Hi, findsmb doesnt list the only xp machine in the network... smbclient -NL 192.168.10.10 shows: Anonymous login successful Domain=[ARBEITSGRUPPE] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED session request to 192.168.10.10 failed (Called name not

This is a resend. I'm seeing this odd system with an IP from a different subnet again. Again ideas why this happens? Does anyone know why I might see the following output from 'findsmb'? Notice the unknown system on a completely different subnet. Would this normally be seen if someone brought in a system with a static IP on a different subnet and connected it to the network? IP

What does it mean if a windows XP consistently doesn't show up in findsmb even when it does show up in smbstatus? Also, I don't know if this is related or not, but the same machine sometimes shows up in smbstatus with two different PIDs. We've seen this with two different machines, both running XP. Here's smbstatus output (the machine in question is accountingiii): Samba

Three PCs but four environments (Fedora Core 3 and SuSE 9.2 are installed on the same hard drive, use Fedora's GRUB as a common boot partition and native partitions for each respective distribution), on each 'rpm -qa | grep samba' returns: Red Hat 9 (client) samba-3.0.14a-1 Fedora Core 3 (server) samba-common-3.0.14a-1 samba-3.0.14a-1 samba-swat-3.0.14a-1 samba-client-3.0.14a-1

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

Hi, I would like to ask you to consider the attached patch for inclusion into the next samba release. The patch addresses the following three points: 1. 'make install' with VPATH fails at one point ( $(srcdir)/script/findsmb vs. script/findsmb ) 2. support for 'make DESTDIR=<somewhere> install' (e.g. to build a binary package) 3. support for 'configure

Hi These files are the samba daemon ! > usr/local/samba/sbin/nmbd > usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd > usr/local/samba/sbin/swat > usr/local/samba/sbin/winbindd You must create the smb.conf in /usr/local/samba/lib. ----------------------------------- St?phane PURNELLE stephane.purnelle@corman.be Service Informatique Corman S.A.

I've tried building it on a server that I know has pretty much every library possible for a program to need, but I'm still not getting a good samba install. I'm on white-dwarf linux (kernel 2.4.25), gcc 3.3.2, Samba 3.0.2a White-dwarf is home-grown, very much like slackware. When I configure and make and make install, I don't get any errors, but I when I look for some files

Hi, This is imacat from Taiwan. I tried to compile samba 3.0.21a, but failed. I searched the Google with no return. (Strange. Nobody encounter this same problem before?) Could anyone help? Thank you. My build environment is: Debian 3.1r1 Sarge, Linux 2.6.14.5, gcc 4.0.2, glibc 2.3.5. Please tell me if more information is required. imacat@rinse samba-3.0.21a/source % ./configure

Mates, Since nobody is building binaries for mandriva, I thought I would share a quick cheat sheet for those who want to compile from source to update 10.2 from 3.20 to 3.23. Here goes: 1. Download samba-3.0.23b.tar.gz to your local machine (a given...) 2. Unzip it: tar xzvf samba-3.0.23b.tar.gz 3. Change to the source directory: cd samba-3.0.23b/source/ 4. Make sure you are

I use samba 3.0.10 on my linux box and I would like to access to a winXP LSD (it's a kind of light windows based on Service Pack 2 (SP2)). Unfortunately, it doesn't work although it worked with a SP1 windows. Here is what I have done : $ smbclient -L ip_winxp .... added interface ip=192.168.0.4 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Netbios name list:-

I am attempting to create a folder for my wineprefixes on my external hard disk. The plan is to symlink to that location from inside my user folder (ie. ~/.wine/PREFIXES -> $iomega/.wineprefixes) For reference: $iomega=/media/Iomega_HDD This is a 400GB external drive with a single NTFS partition. The plan is to create folders for all my WINEPREFIXes at $iomega/.wineprefixes (Example:

dear Samba team, Today we have used samba ver. 3 as primary domain controller at my company. To improve the Samba technology and feature to support our business , we want to upgrade to Samba 4. Is there any tools or support to provide upgrade solution from Samba 3 to samba 4 ? For the information current Samba version we are used and running on Mandriva : samba-common-3.0.23b-7mdv2007.0
