similar to: smb.conf setting for file permissions?

Hi all, Disregard my previous posts, I've consolidated everything here. I'm having terrible performance issues with samba over a WAN (point-to-point T1 link). Doing a copy of a 2MB file from a samba server to a linux client running smbclient takes over 5 minutes. SCPing the same file takes seconds. The server is running samba version 3.0.25c with kernel 2.6.16.18. I've put up a set

I recently setup a new server with CentOS 5.2. Everything works great on the server except when I try to join the domain it simply tells me: "The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "Domain": The user name could not be found. I have researched this error and attempted a number of fixes but have been unable to resolve the issue. I am able to connect to

Morning, This is somewhat off topic. I've not thought of a better place to ask than here. I have a user on a Macbook (Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard) with Microsoft Office 2008 for the mac and Parallels running an image of Microsoft Windows XP Pro with Microsoft Office 2007. Inside Parallels and XP Pro the user can open a spreadsheet shared from a Windows Server 2003 box, and yet the user gets an

Morning, I have a user that keeps getting a temporary profile. The user is logging into the machine so the authentication through samba to ldap is working. The only item that looks odd to me in the machine log (/var/log/samba/$MACHINE.log) is 'Re-using invalid record'. I've had the user boot the machine and I've restarted samba (# service smb restart) and the user is still getting

I'm trying to use smbclient to look at a Vista box but I keep getting: # smbclient -L user-pc -U Kellie Password: <Kellie's password> session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE I know the user/password combination is good. I googled around and got the impression that Vista didn't play well with Samba because of some authentication protocol that Vista uses but I also got the

We have a user who purchased a Mac Book Pro with OSX 10.6.2. Everyday he has a problem with one or another Samba Server. One day it's FileShare1 , the next day it's ProductionData Server. I use Windows and Linux and neither has a problem connecting to these servers. He has XP in VMWare Fusion and that works fine. But about every other day he comes and says some server won't allow

Hi, I have a share I'm trying to lock down to a specific group and I'm not hold my mouth right. I want this share available to a single group. I want this share to have directory permissions 0770 when a directory is created and file permissions 0660. I want the users accessing this share to never be able to change these permissions. When a file or directory is created, I want the group to

Hi all, This doesn't happen with UNIX so I am at a loss. I've got a directory where the directory mode is 770. All the files within it were manually set to 660 permissions and the create mode on the share is 660. However, when a user opens a file, changes it, and saves it, they become the owner (ok) and the mode becomes 640! Hence, the next person comes to me and says "That

Can anyone share any links regarding packages to do Call Detail Record (CDR) analysis from the CDR Master file? Login-distance reconciliation, billback, and data presentation are three primary areas of interest.

Morning, Well I ordered a Windows Server 2008 Standard for a need around here and after just spending an hour with Dell support (nice fellow, not his fault) I find that now the 2008 Server is too *new* for the Samba NT4 PDC model. I got this box joined fine with my domain, but any time I try to log into it over RDP, and the new box authenticates with samba (and samba talks to OpenLDAP) the box

Tinc newbie here so apologies if this is obvious or has been discussed already; I did search but couldn't find anything. I'm testing tinc 1.1pre10 between a Windows 7 client and Linux server. The Linux machine is on the internet and the Windows machine is on my home network behind NAT. I have successfully configured a Linux client on my home network to communicate with the server

Hi there guys. I'm new to the list. I have googled and yahooed, and been to several other mailing list to see if I can find help there. But with no luck. I'm trying to setup a share for several departments for our company. So when I installed RedHat 9.0 I created a 30Gb partition. Please bare with me as I explain what I would like to do. I have a directory drwxrwx---- 5 root

Hi list, I have a few large image files (VMware workstation VMDKs and TrueCrypt containers) which I routinely back up over the network to a btrfs raid10 volume via bigsync (https://code.google.com/p/bigsync/). The VM images in particular get really fragmented due to CoW, which is expected. I haven''t yet switched off CoW on the backups directory mainly to experiment and see what

Hi, Do I actually need a 'path' entry for each printer share defined in my smb.conf? Or is 'path' redundant in this case as the only relevance it has would be for the printing spool directory, which is defined by my /etc/printcap for all my printers anyway?? The man page for smb.conf seems to suggest that I do need a path entry, so should this be the same as the spool directory

I'm using Samba 2.0.6 on a Linux server. When using smbmount or mount to mount a share from an NT server, how do I set file permissions. An older smbmount allowed a -d and -f switch to set the file permissions. The newest one does not support these. The man pages for smbmount and smbmnt mention using syntax that does not work. I finally have gotten the mount command to work, but now I

Morning, I am working on enabling the ssl portion of several of my services (https, imaps, ftps, etc). I am using a free certification authorithy (CA) for my certificates. I need to get this CA's root certificate installed in my several windows workstations. All these workstations are part of my samba PDC domain. Is there a way I can use samba, or maybe the logon.bat file, to install this

Morning, I like samba, but I'm tired of what I feel is fighting battles. I want to move the PDC portion of samba to an Active Directory server (I've been told AD is a part of Server 2008?). Would someone please list the steps for doing this? My rough idea so far is: - take an LDIF from OpenLDAP - install the server 2008 box - load the LDIF into AD - join the AD box to the samba domain -
