similar to: Samba spawning excessive smbd processes.

All, I have a fresh CentOS 5.2 server that I am just starting to customize, it is very close to stock. This morning I ran yum update: ============================================================================= Installing: kernel-xen i686 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 updates 15 M Updating: samba i386 3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 updates 16 M

I am trying to install the source code for samba. I have samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 When I try and install the samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1.src.rpm. I get the following..... rpm -ihv samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1.src.rpm 1:samba warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root warning:

Hi, the latest upstream version of samba rpms for 5.2 is samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1. In the Centos 5.2 updates tree there is only samba-3.0.28-0.el5.8 which also is already part of the 5.2 os tree. Could it be that the updates tree just carries the wrong rpms? Best regards, Bernd

Shifting from a v2 samba server to v3 - Read documentation and googled LOTS but can't seem to find the bits that apply to my simple(?) server with regards to groups. # rpm -qi samba Version : 3.0.28 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.

All, I am running samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1.x86_64.rpm on RHEL 5 x64. I am sharing out approximately 7TB via samba and a 'few' of my users are complaining of latency when accessing their shares via Windows Explorer. Mind you the disk is about 93% full which I am sure is a factor but before I go into battle I wanted to make sure there were no known limitations or issues. Thanks in

---------------------------- OS: CentOS 5.2 Samba: Samba 3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 Printer: HP LaserJet P2105n ---------------------------- I setup a linux print server for windows clients. First I downloaded the printer drivers for windows from HP website (both the Universal Printer Driver PCL6 and the PCL6 driver for P2105 series), and installed them on my windows client, then it created a local printer

Hi samba group, I'm trying to get samba to act like Windows in the Security tab (to be able to add, remove, and modify ACLs on certain files/folders). We are running Centos 5.2 (2.6.18-92.1.22.el5) with XFS installed for the /share partition. I currently have these versions of samba installed: samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 samba-common-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 I am pretty sure the ACL is all

perhaps my mind isn't working today. I'm trying to update a system that hasn't been updated in a while which I believe is CentOS 5.2 but it's possible that it's 5.1. I am pretty sure that it has php installed from CentOS-Extras and when I do yum update, it's stumbling on php --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: php-common = 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1 is

We just upgraded Cent from 5.3 to 5.5 on a bunch of servers with little to no issues (kudos to you guys) except on a few servers where it appears we are having a problem w/ the Tomcat upgrade. Previously our application server was working fine under 5.3 with Tomcat/Java installed as such: java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp.115 java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-0.30.b09.el5

Hello, On a RHEL 5 U2 server i am trying again to setup samba this time in user mode, see smb.conf below: [global] workgroup = ACME realm = EU.ACME.COM server string = %h password server = amsterdam-dc01.eu.acme.com passdb backend = tdbsam local master = No dns proxy = No wins server = 10.130.12.120 ldap ssl = no

We are in the process of upgading our windows 2003 pdc's to windows 2008Rr2. No problem there, but our samba/winbind clients are beginning to show some strange behaviour. In the beginning we saw a lot of messages appear in the logfiles. Example : -------------- pr 1 14:07:36 srvxxx winbindd[5148]: rpc_api_pipe: Remote machine pdc.company.net pipe \NETLOGON fnum 0x4003returned critical

Hi, Samba version 3.0.28 from RPM samba-3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 on Scientific Linux 5. Although I'm finding this problem with samba 3.0.33 and a few others I've randomly tried. Full experiment here: http://xweb.geos.ed.ac.uk/~fgibbins/DFS-tests.txt I've got an AD joined samba server which exports a share to an AD joined XP machine, same M$ 2003 AD in both cases. This share is

I'm running the latest version of ubuntu with Samba "smbd 3.0.24" and for some reason I the server is spawning multiple like 50-100 instances of smbd. I try stopping samba, but the processes keep running. This is a very small network with only a few clients.like 4...so I'm not sure what the issue is. I've been using samba for years and have never seen it spawn processes like

Hello, I have setup a Samba server with CentOS 5.2 and Samba 3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 (the CentOS included versi?n). I have configured Samba as a PDC following "Samba-3 by example" chapter 3, "Secure Office Networking". No DNS or DHCP active, as far as for now this is just a test environment. Most of it works fine, but trying to change user passwords for a MS-Windows test computer

I've currently got a samba 4.0.6-GIT-3f8ea16 deployment that's spawning many (250 or more) smbd processes whenever a backup runs and starts backing up files that have samba ACL's attached to them. (Such as the 'sysvol' volume) This will effectively lock up the machine until I've restarted samba and killed the backup job. If the backup is still running, samba will
