Over the past 2 days, my smbd processes are multiplying worse than rabbits. At least with rabbits it's easy to tell why you wind up with so many... 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

Hello there - I just upgraded to 3.2.7 via an rpm from fedora - running fc6: # uname -a Linux yoda.wrenkasky.com 2.6.22.14-72.fc6 #1 SMP Wed Nov 21 15:12:59 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Since upgrading, I am getting the following every hour or so: [2009/01/07 15:19:08, 2] printing/print_cups.c:cups_async_callback(504) cups_async_callback: failed to read a new printer list There's

Hi, I'm officialy announcing the new 1.1.23 stable release of Samba Console, along with a stable IMC release too (1.2.24). This code is just going in production at a new customer site this week. From the project web site : Samba Console <http://imc.sourceforge.net/samba/index.html> is the first console developped for IMC. It offers a simple and ergonomic interface for managing a

Icecast 1.x isn't supported any more, but you might be able to Google for a 3rd party IPv6 patch. If you mean Icecast2, there is support but no "release" yet, you would have to install a snapshot or get the source directly from CVS. It's no big deal,

This is to announce the release of ices 2.0 beta 3. The source client for streaming Ogg Vorbis to Icecast 2. After far too much time having passed since beta 2, where many fixes and updates have been applied, it's time to push for a full 2.0 release. This beta is really to flush out any remaining issues, so no new functionality is to be added until after the 2.0 release. Download from

I just got a query from a user regarding icecast2 and thought I'd throw it out to the mailing list. Is it possible to set up some sort of subscription to an icecast2 audio feed? A student at the University of Cincinnati wants to create a subscription service to an indie radio station and have users sign up, and then get a login to the stream. They would have an unique username and password.

Alright lads, I'm Rick Masters and I know very little about networks, but for some mad reason I have been given the job of setting up a Linux File Server on an NT network. How the dickens does that work? Anyway I need as much help as you can be bothered to give me. And there is a free pizza in it for the guy who helps me get it working :-) You are all super and great fun (I'm sure).

Setup: RedHat 7.2 running Samba 3.0.20-1 Mixed clients with XP-SP2 and 2000-SP4 I just upgraded from 3.0.14a-1 to 3.0.20-1 and noticed the following errors when logging in from an XP machine: Aug 22 06:46:23 yoda2 smbd[1676]: [2005/08/22 06:46:23, 0] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_mem_get(532) Aug 22 06:46:23 yoda2 smbd[1676]: prs_mem_get: reading data of size 4 would overrun buffer.

Hello list Our central fileserver is a Samba 3.0.25b on Solaris 9 and has 10'000 users (several hundreds at the same time). This week it died on us and when I inspected the machine, it was out of 8GB Memory and 16GB Swap because thousands of smbd processes were running. netstat -na showed that many hundreds of connections to port 445 were in CLOSE_WAIT state. We first thought it could be

Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible to create a virtual namespace on a prefix other than "virtual/". My goal is to mix IMAP folders with virtual folders on the same folder level (prefix = ""). mail_location = maildir:/data/mail/%d/%u/ # Virtual namespace private { prefix = separator = / location = virtual:/data/mail/%d/%u/virtual } # Default namespace

Hi, I'm having trouble implementing the virtual pop3 inbox solution in Dovecot 1.2.x. As the following wiki page describes (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual) one should only set the inbox=yes flag for the virtual namespace which then flattens all mailboxes in the realmails/ prefix. In the above example when I set the inbox=yes flag for the virtual namespace, the inbox in the

I am currently running Samba 3.0.28.0 from rpm on FC6. I have the following in smb.conf: log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log Yet, when I start the daemons, I get log.%m: drwx------ 4 root root 4096 Feb 12 06:55 . drwxrwxr-x 17 root bin 4096 Feb 12 05:02 .. drwx------ 4 root root 4096 Feb 8 2007 cores -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4269 Feb 12 06:55 log.nmbd -rw-r--r-- 1 root

I am currently running version 3.3.2 on an older Fedora machine that works just fine with XP. I am trying to get a Win7 machine to work but keep getting trust relationship errors on the final step in the configuration on the Win machine.

Hello, I''m experiencing a strange, but very bad behavior with Mongrel 0.3.13.4 and Pound 1.8. Every 6 hours or so one of our nine (not consistent on which one) application servers ( each one running several mongrel processes ) will start leaving lots of socket connections with pound open. This leads to "Too many open files" errors. I''ve set pound to close connections

Hi folks I know that has, to some degree, been run over the past year in different ways, but, I may have yet another instance of an issue on this. The puppetmaster system and the puppet system are both running 0.24.7-r1, on a gentoo system. Other puppet systems are running 0.24.4. The puppet system (not the puppetmaster system) that is running 0.24.7-r1 is showing multiple close_wait

Hi, I''m running into a strange issue where one mongrel will sometimes develop hundreds of CLOSE_WAIT TCP connections, mostly to apache (I think -- see sample lsof output below). I haven''t had a chance to get the mongrel with this behavior into USR1 debug mode yet. I didn''t catch it in time. This happens a couple times a day on average at seemingly random times.

Having read a few posts recently I thought I would do some testing. Given XP's use of 445 and that I have a couple of networks where they only have XP clients, I thought I would try setting smb ports to 445 only rather than that suggested of just specifying 139. This has worked well for XP clients with SP2. However SP1, and presumably pre-SP1 clients, lose all sight of the NBT network.

I just discovered that the smbd process is stopping but nothing is showing up in the log until the internal error... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Good morning! I am at a loss on this one. I had a drive go down and I so had to bring the server down to fix and reinitialize the array, I can't keep samba running. I have included the log file entries below. Thinking that maybe something with my samba
