I'm using FC8 Server with Samba 3.0.30-fc8 and have an erratic problem assecing the share. I have a Share that every one can acess and I use the nobody user to acess everithing without any problem, and from time to time when user tries to acess a file the share gets closed, than we have to resart the machine and it goes wel again. the log for one user is below why does it closes the

Hi! First, let me apologize for the length of this message. I wanted to include as much relevant info as I could and it got a bit lengthy. For reasons that I won't bother to detail here, I ended up volunteering to upgrade the server at my kids school. It's a small private school with an all-volunteer tech support staff (me!). We currently have about 40 computers serving about 150 people.

We've just set up an internal domain, and had a single XP Pro machine join without any difficulties. But we need this machine (and the other handful with it) to use Roaming Profiles, which is posing something of a speed issue. I have logged on, killed the 'You do not own the profile' tidbit, fixed up permissions, and finally gotten XP to read the profile from the SAMBA server

Hi list for a couple of days we have the problem that our samba pdc server (ubuntu 8.04 LTS [kernel 2.6.24-24] with 3.0.28a samba package) freezes sometimes when someone saves a specific word document (about 50MB) from MS Word. It's not always the same person. Saving the document - as nearly any huge MS Office document - takes some time, about one minute (guessed). First the server gets

Thus spake Nathan Ehresman (nehresma@css.tayloru.edu) [29/07/03 08:50]: > check out http://www.css.tayloru.edu/~nehresma/samba.html Check out the logs -- this is a completely different problem. Ed and I have been working on this for some time now, and while your solution wards off potential future problems, it doesn't fix the current problem. We're not having the typical 'My

Hello, I have a centOS 5.5 box acting as as a PDC with samba 3.4.9 and openldap 2.4.22. Then I joined the domain with a centOS box (samba 3.4.17) which hosts the homes and profiles. I have no problem with XP clients. I can join a windows 7 client to my domain but it is unable to load the profile when logging in. See below a level 2 log.smdb from the file server when I log in with a domain

Greetings list, I am about setting up a domain controller in a little company, so I choose samba (debian lenny) and I did it against openldap. Everything seems to be ok in the server but when I try to log in (windows client) I have a bizarre output: it said that my profile will not be saved. And after that when I try to connect to virtual machine running in the same computer, it doesn't work:

Issue: Three WinXP Pro boxes using Offline Files disconnect from all Samba shares when a user either performs a synch or accesses a file on the share with offline files enabled. About half the time, being able to reconnect for any length of time requires a reboot of the WinXP machines. Disabling the Offline Files in Windows alleviates the problem. Background and Network

Background: I've setup my server (name:firewall) to acts as a PDC, and to use roaming profiles. I am using Windows XP with sp1 on the client machines. Problem: When I login to my domain (panacea) I get the following error-message: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log

Hi folks, Be gentle - first time I've posted to this list! ;-) I'll try and be complete. If I missed something, please let me know. I've googled and found some information, but nothing *quite* relevant. Running Fedora Core 6. Been using Samba for a long time, it's always been problem free. Since the Fedora upgrade to 3.0.24-4.fc6 (I know this is something specific to

Hi list, I have a Samba-3.0.25a PDC running on FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE using OpenLDAP 2.3.34 (nss_ldap-1.255) as backend. Everything work's great, the only problem that I fighting is with an M$ ISA Server 2000, that do ntlm authentications on my domain. At some times (each 4 hours) the ISA Server lost the connection with the domain and does not authenticate users until the connection be

I've updated samba from Samba version 3.0.24 ( config file in testparm-oldsrv1.txt) to Samba version 3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1 ( config file in testparm-newsrv1b.txt) I've used samba to share a directory which is used to windows 2000 serve as mapped drive. All works fine with samba 3.0.24, but i've a problem in new version: Every 10 minutes the client (w2k server) is disconnected from

Hi Gregory, I see few things, start here : from smb.conf remove : map to guest = Bad User This enabled on a domain member or other domain server is really a no go. This makes debugging really hard. interpret_string_addr_internal: getaddrinfo failed for name > freenas.ad.abc.local (flags 1026) [hostname nor servname > provided, or not known] Looks like there are resolving problems.

Hi, I would be extremely grateful if you could cast your eye over my problem with getting Windows 7 PC back onto on a Samba domain? I have the current version from lenny-backports: 2:3.4.8~dfsg-2~bpo50+1, the client is windows 7 Ultimate. logins and profiles and nelogon scripts all seemed to work back in Feb 2010 using the instructions here: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 However

Hello all, We have a Windows 2008 Terminal Server which people connect into to run their programs. We are getting upwards of 60 people connecting in at any time. We are seeing error messages from the application complaining that it can't access one of the files on one of the shares. I have read that this problem is likely to be due to the fact that we run one machine as a terminal server and

Hi all, I have Samba 3.0.32 on FreeBSD-7-RELEASE, set up to act as a very simple workgroup file server (i.e., no domain or anything fancy like that). It is the latest version of Samba available in ports. I am seeing timeouts and connection reset errors in my per-client logs such as the following. For clients on the local LAN, the errors don't cause any real problems. However, for remote

To whom it may concern, I'm having some issues writing large files to my samba share. After about 11Gb it fails ( for the past three transfer attempts). The Files are sized between 2Gb and 65gb respectively I was getting Oplock errors so i disabled oplock but still have an issue. Below is the output hopefully someone knows what i am doing wrong. TIA Ed [2004/08/04 11:35:47, 1]

Hello all, I've tried everything I can think of, I've gone through Google and the Samba website and I can't come up with a fix for this problem. I've been running Samba 3 for at least the past year with no problems. I run a small FreeBSD 6.2 box that I use as a storage area for the windows XP systems on my network. Things have been fine up until 3.0.25 and 3.0.25a. Now,

Hi, I have a wierd problem regarding printing. I use the CUPS-backend on a debian-box to share printers with samba. Sometimes for no apperently reason, a win-box (XP-home) just can't print after a reboot... and no matter how many reboots the win-box makes it just stops working, and dosen't work until samba is restartet.... and its not a samba crash, because other win-boxes prints

Hi, I use Samba and cups on my debian-box to share printers, but sometimes, for no apperently reason, windows machines (XP-pro and XP-home), sudently won't print after reboot and this is only solved by a samba restart. Other times the first print after win-reboot, just gets lost, and never apper in the cups-printing log. It's not domain controled, but everyone is mounting their
