Here's the setup: Samba version 3.2.8-0.24 installed via rpm on a FC6 box with 2 nics, both on the same subnet. The samba server acts as a PDC in a mixed environment but mostly windows pc's running xp. It is used mostly for file

Hi, I would like some help. I am trying to set-up a share on an Encrypted Partition of my Home Server. I'm using opensuse 11.4 with samba version 3.5.7-3.5.1-2573-SUSE-SL11.4-i386.

Samba 3.2.5 I'm running into an issue when using Vista to access Samba shares.

Dear Group members! I am having problems with my Samba PDC setup since many months, concerning the reliability of the connections from the client to the server. I am thankful for any hint or advice!!!! Best regards Tom The symptoms on my Windows 7 64bit client: ======================================== - My Roaming profile in 1 out of 10 times does not get synchronized correctly without any

I have a problem with samba (3.2.3) not working properly with windows clients. I run a FC11 samba storage server, that has windows and mac client machines connecting to it. So far mac clients work. However windows client, whenever I try to install some application that is stored on the samba server, or even copy a very large file (few gbs) I get this in /var/log/messages and the file

I'm hoping to get some guidance diagnosing intermittent smbd errors that have been cropping up in the last 2 months. They are sporadic, difficult to reproduce, and don't reveal much of a pattern so far except that the majority are generated by a couple of clients, although several clients appear to be affected. Typical symptom on the client is a hang when attempting to look at the share

I've been fighting with a samba install on top of a amd64 Ubuntu 10.4 system for a couple months now. I have a small flotilla of Windows systems running anything from Win 2000 up through Windows Server 2008.

Hi, I'm running samba 3.2.5 as a domain controller on a Debian Lenny server with authentication data stored in a local openldap instance. The server has been running smoothly since I originally set it up on Sarge. I upgraded to Etch a while back and then to Lenny about a month ago. I'm trying to add a new Windows XP SP3 client to the domain for the first time since the latest upgrade

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:

I'm having problems using Microsoft Access 2000 mdb files on a Samba share. The same database worked very well on a Windows server. I had hoped Samba would be a drop in replacement for a Windows server but apparently Access needs special Samba configuration. In Access I sometimes get Run-time error '3035': System resource exceeded. I don't see any errors in the log file when
