Hello list, I've noticed this problem for a few years now, I think. I see it popped out now and then in discussions. But they always end before a solution is given. So let's try one more time :-) I have plenty of UTF-8 named files and directories. It's UTF-8 all round, I don't use anything else, so I have no doubt the byte sequences are correct in the filesystem (I happen to

Mail file is server is a member server is Samba 3.6.26 on Solaris 11. It had been a BDC but a few week ago a switched it back to a member server. The 2 current DC's had been running Samba 3.6.25 but switched to Samba 4.4.7. This is a classic domain. Some Windows users reported that browsing folders shared from the member server have become very slow over the last few weeks. Which

Hi there, today I installed samba 3.0.0 rc 3 on redhat 9. Now I got following problem: "Illegal multibyte sequence" -> and all processors have a cpu-state of 99,9% while reading files... It seems to me that the iconv string does not work properly with my charset for german. Here're the entries from my smb.conf: unix charset = ISO-8859-15 display charset =

Hi, My output of smbstatus is bugged somehow in the Locked files section. For every line with a non ascii character, the whole string from the character to the end (included) is removed. Hence the line is attached to the next one. Here is a simplified example Locked files: Pid ... SharePath Name Time --------------------------------- 8910 ... /path

Hello, All! I found that Samba checks description fields encoding at various tdb files to late. Case 1. FreeBSD with UTF-8 support. At some cases FreeBSD's adduser script can save incorrect UTF-8 sequence to GECOS /etc/passwd field. (Here is example http://www.acc.tula.ru/~acc107_3/samba/miscoding/gecos.txt) When user is added to Samba, Samba reads GECOS field "as is" without

There are definitely some files with some weird names- in an ssh session they don't even have regular characters. e.g -rw-rw---- 1 xxx xxx 114985112 Oct 31 14:39 ▒^t Not sure if that is related to problems though. The top command shows Memory: 12G phys mem, 343M free mem, 2048M total swap, 2048M free swap This is in the evening so should not be much load but I think

My machine is running samba 4.0.3 inside a DomU of Debian Wheezy. Following the Samba AD Howto and running Samba 4.0.3 successfully but with one pretty serious problem. When I try access the folder with 1000 files, the speed is *VERY* slow.

Dear Sirs, I'm running samba in utf-8/utf-8 mode (unix charset/display charset), clients are: Windows XP/RUS, files and directories are created by clients directly, so samba says: [2005/05/30 20:12:01, 3] smbd/open.c:open_file(178) Error opening file profile/?????????\x87???? ?\x81?\x82????12 (Is a directory) (local_flags=1) (flags=1) [2005/05/30 20:12:01, 3]

Hi there I hope that you understand by English. I'm a Rooky and don't know Samba very well. I installed the newest version 3.0.10 on my SuSE Linux 7.3 machine and it works very well. I make User- and Passwort-Requests with Samba (winbind) for the Squid-Proxy. Now always work's well but I get the following error message from log.winbind: [2005/01/24 11:05:52, 4]

My users are having a lot of problems since I upgraded a samba domain member server from samba-3.0.37 to 3.5.X. The main issue seems to be a very long delay loading office files (sometimes minutes if the file loads at all) and a lot of read only errors and users not being able to save. I have found that rebooting the client, restarting samba, or killing the users smbd process regains access to the

Hi all, I've recently managed to compile Samba v3.0.24 for OS/2 and have debugged most of the issues. The positive is that relatively few source changes were required to get the daemon working, however, having said that, there are two problems that I'm still having trouble with. 1) smbpasswd is generating a broken password - so password protected clients can't connect. eg.

Hi, I just upgraded from 3.0.32 to 3.3.4 on Aix 6.1, and noticed that a 'net view' command from a windows xp workstation fails with a system error 1745. The share works perfectly fine, just the net view command doesn't. This occurs when there is an umlaut in the comment line of the share. Is this WAD? here are the debug lines...from Samba 3.3.3, but it's the same error. Thanks,

Hello, I have an issue with a german application that generates files with iso-8859-15 encoded filenames. I have 2 Linux Suse servers, both connected to the same NAS filesystem, and sharing it via Samba. "unix charset" in smb.conf set to default utf-8 LC_CTYPE & LANG locale are set to en_US.UTF-8 - First server is Samba-3.6.3 (SLES11 SP4, kernel 3.0.101-107-default) : those

Samba version is 3.0.10 on Gentoo linux. I am trying to use idmap_rid backend in a Windows AD environment, the Linux PC acting only as a domain member. I am using idmap_rid because I need UID/GID predictability. I can log in to console correctly, and it shows the right user and the "Domain Users" as the group. When I use default winbind TDB, I can browse the home directory from an XP

I think the issue may be related to the broken trusts. First of all only two people had specifically reported issues which meant for most people it was acceptable. Then I noticed that some directories seemed slower than others. If I ssh'd into the server and checked permissions, listing permissions on most directories was quick (under 2 second.) On directories that allowed

Hi all, I have installed samba on aix. I am trying to integrate with the ADS using winbind. I am able to join domain and retrieve the users and groups from the ADS. I am not able to login to the server with ADS user id and password. The winbindd.log has the following error. Please let me know what is the solution for this. ?lib/charcnv.c:convert_string_allocate(567) +
