similar to: can't resolve NETBios names

fc2, samba 3.0.9 The samba server is PDC. Temporarily, the server was dhcp, which gave it the IP 192.168.1.64 we then set it to static 192.168.1.150, which is what we want. however, the different windows clients, on and off, on ping and such, resolve INTRANET, the netbios name of the pdc, to 192.168.1.64 still, despite me removing wins.dat. I even tried the following suggestion, to no avail

I'm in the process of setting up Samba 3 on a Fedora core machine with a second machine being an XP machine. I can ping from either machine to the other. The command smbclient -L netbiosname on the linux machine gives me a "Connection to netbiosname failed On the XP machine I've enabled Wins over TCP IP but the command nbtstat -n on the XP machine only lists itself while the

Hi! I have a problem for a few weeks, and can't figure out what could be the problem. The client computer runs RHEL 5.2 (arch: x64_64); the smb server is unknown for us. I'm sorry, that I can't provide any info (usernames, servernames, IPs, etc), they are masked to look like variables. But they are correct as far as i am concerned. When I try to mount it with mount.cifs (.smbfs

I'm running samba 2.2.5 on a RedHat 8 box. I need to mount a share from a PC that is on a domain that the linux box is not a part of. Normally with another PC you would specify your username as DOMAIN\user, how do I do this with smbmount? I've looked at the documentation, google, etc. I can't find anything. Is this even possible? Here's what I've tried: smbmount //dd192/PM

Hello, I have setup up samba on my pc and everything is working great. I setup my writable shared folders I can view other servers/pcs on the network using gnome but sometimes I need to debug some networking issues and I would like to for example: ping myserver4 ping: unknown host myserver4 Is there a way to setup up linux to use samba for name resolution? The only way I know right now is to add

I noticed lots of smbclient options are missing in Samba 3.0.14a when compared to 3.0.13 - notably, all user/authentication options - so I can't connect now as a specified user anymore. Is it just my build, or is it "official"? Samba 3.0.14a: # smbclient --usage Usage: [-?] [-?|--help] [--usage] [-R|--name-resolve NAME-RESOLVE-ORDER] [-M|--message HOST] [-I|--ip-address IP]

Hi all, Situation: We use smbtar for backups, incrementals done using -N <last date file>, and this has worked well with samba 2.2.x After upgrading to 3.0b3, using the -N (newer) option to smbtar causes a bad interaction with smbclient. Eg,: # smbtar -s PC -x Share -u User -p Pwd -d / -t - -N last-backup -v gives (if you print out the eval at the end of smbtar script): eval

Hi, I?ve installed fedora core 2 with samba 3.0.X. The pc is a PDC and I?ve configured samba like I could see in this easy manual: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=6684 (before this, I write for each pc : adduser -g "group" -d /dev/null -s /dev/null netbiosname$ > smbpasswd -a -m netbiosname ) My domain admin group is called smbadmins.

Hello Everyone! Perhaps some of you have some advice for dealing with this problem? I've done quite a bit of googling on this one, but I can't find anything useful. Ever since I started using Samba as PDC, I have had this problem: when users merely open MS-Excel files on samba shares, the file's Last-Modification date is incremented to the current time. I have seen similar

Hi, I wonder why 2 log files per client (log.$IP and log.$NETBIOSNAME) are created when "log file" ist set to "/var/log/samba/log.%m". I have tested this with Samba 3.0.14a, 3.0.13, 3.0.11, 3.0.10 and 2.2.3a. Samba 2.2.3a was the only release which created only one log file. Is that a bug or is there any sense in saving 2 files with exactly the same content? cheers, karolin

This problem began a couple months ago with my new install of (you guessed it) XP sp2. Now, when i mount a share from the xp machine to my debian box, everyone, including rot, gets a permission denied trying to ls the dir. I've read posts about switching to cifs, but that has opened a whole new can of worms. I'd just like to see smbfs mount my shares properly the way they used to. My

The samba log files leave something to be desired in both format and management. I'd like to propose a change if I could. Format: Previously, a log entry is cut with date and timestamp and action on a SINGLE line. Now the date and timestamp is on a separate line from the information that you'd look for in a log file (machine name, ip address, connection status for service, etc.) This is

Hi! I have a problem with gpupdate having a trust with a M$ -ADS domain. Before creating the trust gpupdate worked fine. Then i added the trust and then gpupdate gives the following error: Updating policy... Computer Policy update has completed successfully. User Policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encount ered: The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows

I am confused on the various account creation methods in samba. I am running Fedora Core 8 and Samba 3.0.26a-6. 1.)

Hello there, We have Samba 3.0.2a installed on two solaris 8 servers in a failover cluster (using Veritas Cluster Server). We're using it for windows and unix print servers. Right now, we have one server with one netbios name advertised (printserver1) and the other with a netbios name of printserver2. Both have been joined to our windows NT 4.0 domain. We have an interface that fails
