Hi, I've asked this question some days ago but nobody answered me. Now I ask again. If it's a Problem with the 'data' included please tell me. I'll try to configure browsing on W2k and ME Clients. But every time I'll get a No such Workgroup error. All clients are in the same Workgroup (no cross Subnets) Samba is configured as local master browser and a guest user is set

I've been having problems installing Samba on AIX 4.32. I have spent well over two weeks on the issue and have not had any major success. I can get samba 1.9 series of source code and binaries to work fine but the new Samba 2.0 series code is causing me problems. I have the following system and problem. I have a H50 with 2 NICs; one is ether and the other is token. I can't seem to browse

Hello XP(SP3) seems to take a long time to update its list of shares after changing the NetBIOS name used in Samba (eg. going from "LINUX" to "UBUNTU"). Is there a command in Windows that can purge the data, and perform a new broadcast/WINS call to get the list of hosts and shares? Thank you.

Hi, I have a Samba 3 PDC running with around 20 Windows XP/2K clients. The PDC and the clients are in different subnets. I recently decided to add a Samba 3 BDC in the same subnet as the clients, to give some failover and also to reduce across-switch traffic. After creating the BDC, I restarted one of the clients but don't see it establishing connection with the BDC, instead it connects as

hi, i've been trying for like two weeks to figure out why samba doesn't run properly. from the logs it looks like smbd will start followed by nmbd. then nmbd will exit for no apparent reason. i'm able to start samba manually with the command '/etc/init.d/samba start'. right now i'm assuming nmbd is the reason why samba doesn't load. i'm running samba version

Hi, I've recently upgrade to Samba 1.9.17p1 from 1.9.16p11 (for Solaris 2.5), but have now found that smbclient fails to connect to user shares on win95 machines. I've tried the same login account from a win95 account and am able to mount shares from other win 95 machines. I've also tried running the old smbclient binary with the new smbd & nmbd daemons, and that lets me log

I am configuring Linux (2.0.33) as a local router. I am wanting to use Samba (1.9.18p3) to "manage" the browse lists on my network so that computers on each subnet can browse resources on the other subnets. My local network consists of Win95 and NT40 workstations with NT40 servers. My test configuration consists one token ring segment on one side of the Samba box (network .192) and

Hi, all: To recap: I can successfully get my WinXP box to join the domain (WHITEROCK), but after rebooting, when I try to log on: "The system cannot log you on now because the domain WHITEROCK is not available." I get this even when using the user 'root' - and this user was the one to successfully join the domain WHITEROCK!! To rule out any stale junk, my WinXP is a

Okay - I've been plugging away and it got to the point that running smbclient was returning information about an Alfresco install that I never used, so I went ahead and deleted everything I could find on my machine that said "alfresco". I then removed samba using apt-get from the machine by typing apt-get remove --purge samba I deleted the /etc/samba directory and re-installed

Howdy. I'm running samba-3.0.2-2 (from the binaries on samba.org) on a RedHat 9 box with kernel 2.4.20-28.9. I can access shares from my Windows XP Home box, but the performance isn't very good. When I looked into this, I discovered that apparently the connections are getting dropped, over and over again, which causes a lot more work, I'm sure. Here's a snippet from my main

Hi there...this problem has me banging my head against a wall.... Until last week I was running Samba 2.2.7a on an old Slack box. I decided to upgrade as I needed more drive space and wanted something more current. I went with Fedora Core 2 and am running 2.6.6-1.435 kernel. I was using the default Samba install that came packaged with this release of Fedora and decided to try

It's me again. I really appreciate all the help you people have given me. It's helped out alot! Here is my question: Why when I add a valid users list to my smb.conf files (because I run samba on multiple servers) does it make the network neighbourhood not work for the samba work group? I get: The computer or sharename, could not be found. Make sure you typed it correctly, and

Hi, I'm trying to use the sambaUserWorkstations option to allow users to log on certain computers only. This option looks great... In fact it looks now a lot better than the 'ldap filter' one than was deprecated with samba 3.0.20... The fact is, if the sambaUserWorkstations option works well with machine names, it doesn't seem to work when specifying groups of machines.

Hi, I'm having an issue trying to make a Windows machine sambaserveroin a Samba domain. Samba is running with LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). When I try to join the domain, Windows says that the machine account does not exist. The machine account, however, is successfully created in the LDAP directory after the join fails. When I try to join again, Windows says that the account already exists.

Hi, I have managed to configure Samba+LDAP+smbldap-tools. Everything works fine, except one strange problem is appearing. When I connect with Windows tool UserManagerForDomains or I want to create a share on a Wndows box I can see the users but no groups. With UserManagerForDomains is see following: Users: All the users Groups: none, just description of Replicators Group and the

hi just a question to understand we have a NT PDC and i successfully transfered it's data to samba 3.0 because we're cautious i let the NT PDC "online" (domain=evan) and introduced samba with the same date in a new domain (domain=testevan) for testing purposes to get rid of conflicts i had to change the SID of the samba server, because my knowledge tells me: "a sid

I create multiple server instances for the samba with systemd, everything ok, but after reboot server, the service nmb does not work randomly. selinux disable samba version 4.2.10 config smb [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP3 netbios name = net3 security = user interfaces = enp7s0f3 bind interfaces only =

I have recently upgraded my Redhat 7.3 server to Fedora FC1 with all related updates. I also upgraded my samba version from 3.0.0 to 3.0.2a. It now seems that my nmbd daemon will not start & subsequently I cannot log in from any Windows client as the netbios server name PDC is not found I think. Before this problem started, I noticed that in order for my DNS ping requests from Windows clients

Hello, I am using samba 2.0.4b on Linux 2.0.36. Since I changed some of the parameters in my smb.conf I have a very strange Problem. Everytime my Samba-Box wins the browselist election process two nmbds are started and my WinXX-Clients do not get access to samba (I could see the server but not access the shares nor login to the domain). smbclient -L server from server works fine. From another

hi, samba will work normally if i issue the command '/etc/init.d/samba start', but as for starting up properly at boot time, it will go down when booted as the end of log.nmbd shows. as far as i'm able to read the logs, there is nothing suspicious happening. why is this occurring and how do i fix it. i'm running samba version 3.0.14a-3sarge2. i've included my smb.conf
