I need to have the following services from my server: imap - mostly by lan, but occasionally external file and print serve samba access - read and write to some directories The problems I'm seeing are inconsistent, making it difficult to know how to find the source. Samba access is essential to me. I use a server-based korganizer, and without samba it's inaccessible. Sometimes it is

On a CentOS 5.1 server samba works perfectly as long as connections exist. If no connections exist nmbd shuts down: service smb status smbd (pid 2970 2934) is running... nmbd dead but pid file exists On this last occasion it had been less than 5 minutes between connections. What could be causing this? Anne -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name:

Greetings, I've set up a Samba 3.0.23a PDC on Fedora Core 5 and joined a couple XP clients to the domain successfully.

Hello, after an update from Samba 2.2.12 to 3.0.22 and running the daemons 2-3 days my Samba Server freeze the whole Server.

Hi, Rowland, and thanks for the reply. The PDC OS is Slackware 13. The BDC OS is Slackware 14. The choice to use Samba 4.0 was merely due to its inclusion on the Slackware 14 distro. I'll worry about upgrading that once I have the migration complete. I will post the two machine's respective smb.conf's later today. -- View this message in context:
