Can anyone tell me what to do about the messages I'm getting, or should I ignore them? I think my SuSE 9.2 box is configured to expect a doman, and there isn't one, just a workgroup. Most things seem to be working ok, except for the messages: tolkien:/var/log # tail messages Apr 1 00:43:05 tolkien nmbd[3962]: Unable to sync browse lists in this workgroup. Apr 1 00:56:28 tolkien

Samba 3.0.9-2.3 on Suse 9.2 I'm still getting errors copying to my samba box: Often the first attempt to copy to it fails seemingly before it's copied anything. When this happens, there is a zero-length file created with the right name. If I retry the copy immediately and reply Yes to overwrite the zero-length file, it usually proceeds without problems. Many times the copy just goes

I'm trying to get Samba 3.0.9-2.3 to work under Suse 9.2. This my very first Linux install and I'm a little at sea here. There are so many things that could be wrong I don't know where to start. The Windows machine I'm using as a client has TCP/IP, file/printer sharing, and Client for MS networks. He can't see the linux machine's ("Tolkien") shares, but he

I have Samba 3.0.9 on SuSE 9.2 on a P-III-500 with only 352mb of RAM. The share I'm copying to is on a SCSI RAID array handled by a Compaq Smart-2/P RAID Controller (rev 04) as identified by lspci. The RAID is all LVM and the share is ReiserFS-- maybe not the best choice for something which is so slow to write to. Anyhow, the problem is that when I copy to the share "movies" it

This might be a rube question; if so I apologize in advance. Someone asked me to help and I don't have much info, but I have a limited window and have to be forearmed with as much information as possible before I set foot in the door. The guy that asked for help runs a Red Hat 6.2 box with the version of Samba that came with RH 6.2. I asked him what version of Samba it was. He

Well, I WAS puzzled by this persistent error. Then I stumbled onto something and I might have fixed it. It looks like with an XP client, XP might be trying to renegotiate which port to talk (445 or 139) over at the start of every transaction. Whichever one answers first is used for the rest of the transfer. I added this to smb.conf and restarted samba: smb ports = 139 I can't tell if

I don't know if this is a Samba question or an OS question. I'm working on an embedded project (microcontroller, limited RAM) that reads files from a FreeBSD/Samba (FreeNAS) box using TCP/IP transport on port 445. They're MP3 files so they're several MB at least. If I request 512 or 1024 bytes each time, I get 1024 bytes back from Samba every time. That's good. But, if I

hi all i'm experiencing some really funny behavior on our samba server (CentOS5, Samba Version 3.0.25b-1.el5_1.4) from time to time, our xp/2000 users (our workstations are xp/2000 based) are reporting that while they try to copy a file from one location of the file server to another, they are presented with the the error.... "the specified network name no longer exists" if they

I have a user w/ puzzling error. We have not been able to get a tcpdump or significant samba log, but I'm posting to see if anyone else has seen this. I did find some older posts that point to possible client issues. We're running samba 3.0.25b on RHEL4. The user reports: I am getting an error whenever I want to make a copy of a MS Excel file on my shared network drive: (From

Hi @all, are there any problems known with 3.0.21c and bigger video files (mpg and wmv greater than 700 MB)? Received the information that these files cannot copied from XP to Samba (W2K is okay).

I just recently installed a second hard drive in my Samba server with the hopes of sharing it with the rest of my home network. It seems like Samba can not get the correct permissions to the drive, however. I have the drive mounted under /media/public, and when I try to map a share directly to it and open the share with a client, I get an NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME error. When I map the

Hi Guys I am running two RHEL boxes, each day I am rsyncing some data from my primary server to my secondary server, the secondary server will be activated in a DR situation. I am rsyncing the entire /home partition. On my primary server there are about 8 samba shares for data that the clients can access all the samba shares point to various sub-directories within /home. My issue is

When i try to swap files between disks on my server using samba i get errors: then windows reports "The specified network name is no longer available". Sometimes the copies are fine other times files just wont copy. Hardware checks out fine. Ive even replaced the network cable between server and switch thinking that might be causing the problem. Ive included a ethereal cap of the

I have a couple of Linux directories that are being exported via Samba running under SuSE 10.0. On the Windows side, each of them is assigned a (mapped) drive letter. In the "My Computer" list they initially show up as "Disconnected Network Drive". If I attempt to access a file within one of them, the access fails with an indication that the drive does not exist.

Duncan: You may have it right-I took one phone and set the ring time to 60 seconds. I now get about 4 rings on that one. I wonder how I can change the timing source. Thomas M.

The line you commented out was writing errors to /var/log/asterisk/messages The problem you are having is the logging to /var/log/messages via syslog. It appears that Asterisk is sending verbose logging out to syslog even though logger.conf does not have syslog configured. I am not sure why Asterisk is doing that, and I do not want to play on a production system. I added a filter to the

Thanks for the reply John. About 85-90% of what this box has to do is just handle calls, but it also has options to transfer calls to the main phone system, which up to now has been another asterisk box. For example, you can hit 6 to be transferred to the Lost & Found Department. I do have allowguest set to “yes” already, but of course I also have type=peer and the other stuff for a sip

Listmates: An update of samba via the binary rpms Samba 3.2.8-2.1.140-2082-SUSE-SL11.0 failed to restart the server? This is the first time in years this has happened.
