My last install of Samba was 3.2.2 on Solaris 10 Sparc platform. Had no problems. I'm now trying to install 3.4.0 on Solaris 10 x86 platform. With 3.2.2 I would join our Windows domain as such: net join -S servername -w DOMAIN_NAME -U username All worked fine. Now with 3.4.0 I'm getting usage error trying to do the same thing. Here is my config: # ./testparm Load smb config files

All, I searched archives and found one related to our problem, with subject "samba 3.0.26a and dropboxes", but there was no solution. So posting this again for hopes of a fix. We have dropboxes where users can drop files in someone else's dropbox folder. You have write permissions but not read for the folder. In UNIX the dropbox permision is set as 2733. This all

All, Running Samba 3.5.4 on Solaris 10 with ZFS file system. I have issues where we have shared group folders. In these folders a userA in GroupA create file just fine with the correct inherited permissions 660. Problem is when userB in GroupA reads and modifies that file, with M$ office apps, the permissions get whacked to 060+ and the file becomes read only by everyone. I did

A new problem now. Running Samba 3.5.4, on Solaris 10 with zfs. Issue with Microsoft Office 2007: User opens up a .xlsx, then closes the file (Not Excel). Then user reopens the .xlsx file and now Excel says the file is read-only. But permissions on the file have not changed! Only fix is to exit out of Excel and restart, then user can open that file just fine. The issue also looks to be tied

For samba 2.2.8a Well, I have found that the problem I'm seeing is that in W2K it will not let you remove all permissions from say Everyone. For example in UNIX the file permission is set to 0644. I want to remove the read permission for Everyone from W2K. In the Security tab, when I try to uncheck the read for Everyone and then hit "Apply" the read just gets

Just install Samba 3.5.9 with no issues. I have swat setup and can connect to the web gui. Problem is that when I start smbd and nmbd from the web gui, swat still shows that processes are not running. But in fact on the server they were started, and the logs show no errors. Any reason why swat is not showing me that the samba processes are running? -- C. J. Keist

We applied latest MS security patches on our Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers. That had unexpected consequence of breaking all our Samba servers. They no longer can authenticate with our domain controllers. Looking into this we think it has to do with the BADLOCK security patch. We tried installing the latest Samba, version 4.4.5 which is supposed to be patched for the BADLOCK, but it is
