Hi, here is a client computer and a server computer (Debian Wheezy, armel, samba Version 3.6.6, IP address: 192.168.1.2, Name: xyz). Problem: wins doesn't answer nmblookups by the client on the broadcast address: client$ nmblookup -S xyz querying xyz on 192.168.1.255 name_query failed to find name xyz Why is that so? How to fix this? When I specify the the server IP I do get an answer:

I manage a Samba server that has been working nicely for a couple of months (after it replace the old Samba server which worked happily for years). We use LDAP for accounts, but don't use domain logons or anything fancy. All users have their home dir on Samba mapped to drive 'M:'. In their home, there are symbolic links to various directories they're entitled to access. Links

As part of our deployment of FC updates we have upgraded our office server from 3.0.24-3 to 3.0.24.4. We got some strange results. Shares that have the same name as the users home directory and/or the same name as their users id became inaccessible. For example, my user id is kens, my home directory is in /home/kens and there was a share of it called kens. There is also a common share

Hi all Im pretty new to Samba. I would like to use Samba as a PDC, for some funny reason I cant browse the network. I cant find other machines on the network.

Hi, I cant find any wins options in your smb.conf. I think you?ll need Wins for proper Network browsing.

One of my samba Domain controlers is trying to reach two IP addresses of 192.168.221.1 and 192.168.91.1. The samba server is not even on a 192.168 subnet. It is currnetly on a 172.16.12.x subnet. How can I trace this down? Why would the server look to access a 192.168 subnet? Can someone just point me in the right direction? Thanks for any info Here is a snipit from the nmbd log. If you

Morning everyone. Just have a quick question regarding WINS on samba-3.0.3. Running FreeBSD 4.9, with samba-3.0.3 built from the ports tree. The only thing I needed from this particular server at this time, was it to function as a WINS server for our company. I went ahead and did the basics, as setting the netbios name as well as saying 'yes' to wins support. However, I cannot tell if

I'm hoping someone can give me a hand in figuring out this problem, I have seen several other similar problems in searching, but nothing that exactly matches what I am seeing here. I have recently migrated a client from a Samba server running 2.2.7 (Redhat 9) to 3.0.2 (Fedora 1). The samba installation is running as a PDC for 5 Win XP workstations and was working perfectly prior to the

Hi guys I have setup a NT4 Domain, using Freeipa as a ipasam backend... Normal user authentication and shares seems to work, but i'm getting an error when trying to join a Windows 7 machine to the domain (see below)... To me it seems to be the same error as here: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11245.... Does anyone know if this patch have been implemented in the samba in

Hello all, This my first mail in this list. We have succesfully setup a samba server at our 1st attempt, next we go in another site and try the same things but now it seems we got it all wrong! The facts: we have a linuxbox (named enlogic) (REdHat 7, kernel 2.2.18, samba 2.0.7)and one winbox win98se (named ndemou). Our workgroup is localenlogic. No other PC (not even a Hub because we've

I would like to understand how to make my samba-3.0.0 (-15, from Fedora Core 1) a PDC and how to make a XP/Pro box member of that domain and to add a domain user account, and eventually to ad a few more linux boxen as domain members into that domain. This is the output of the PDC box testparm (the PDC box has two eth interfaces, only eth1 (192.168.1.* and 127.0.0.1 should access the PDC):

Pardon me for resending the message, I am not sure whether the original message was posted at all. Mapping Samba shares from this particular server is either getting slow or rarely getting denied.

Hi, I am migrating a ubuntu server to a centos one. The ubuntu server is working and new server even tough it's running I can't join the domain from a new machine. The new server is not on production so the client (win xp) is connected via a crossover cable. The error message on the client is something like user/password invalid (I am using the root user/password of the server). The

I have a domain named ADAMSTEST with the LDAP/PDC being gomer.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.3.37 and the BDC bldg2.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.7.2. nss_ldap is working, i can ssh in to both servers fine. I'm trying to have a Windows XP named domain2 with ip 10.8.7.254 join the domain using the WINS server of 10.8.7.2 in the network tcp/ip settings. So it should be able to join the domain by

Hello, I am using samba 2.0.4b on Linux 2.0.36. Since I changed some of the parameters in my smb.conf I have a very strange Problem. Everytime my Samba-Box wins the browselist election process two nmbds are started and my WinXX-Clients do not get access to samba (I could see the server but not access the shares nor login to the domain). smbclient -L server from server works fine. From another

I had to move my RedHat 5 box acting as a PDC to a new IP address. It is running samba 3.5.10. After the move, none of my windows or linux samba clients worked anymore.

I assume I am doing(or not) something extremely simple that is causing my XP boxes to not see my linux(FC4) Samba server in the 'My Network Places'. I can access the shares by 'Map Network Drive' and using the IP address(192.168.0.1). I have set the workgroup name 'DAMEN' in the lmhosts file. 192.168.0.1 DAMEN I have set the workgroup in the smb.conf file.
