Dear all, I have a client who uses Samba 3.0.28 on AIX 5.3 and he is running into problems with the cpu utilization which is 100% caused by one or more smbd processes. I found out that this problem should be solved in version 3.0.37 and want to know if there is a way to get the bff-file of this version. I am not able to compile samba myself on the machine which has the problem and I am

Hi All I'm trying to intergrate samba server with ADS on AIX 6.1 TL04, for last one week, with idmap / winbind but no satisfactory results. I have gone through various links at samba.org relating to winbind, idmapper and followed http://pware.hvcc.edu/ for precompiled binaries and http://pware.hvcc.edu/AIX-Samba.pdf which is for AIX 6.1 TL03 though. I have found the samba which is provided

Hello, I am running SAMBA 2.0.7.0 on AIX 4.3.3.0 I have a 1 Tera Byte filesystem on AIX made available to NT and MAC. There is heavy IO activity on this filesystem and all of a sudden the NT's and MAC's can't read or write any file on this shared filesystem. Also AIX is running out of memory whenever this happens and files cannot be copied onto the said filesystem even at unix

Hi all Have an installation that is having problems using samba 2.2.5 on AIX 5.1 When I try to use the pdbedit command I get the following What I ultimately want to do is have samba expire and force the users to change their passwords periodically.

Is there a different behaviour to mangled names in 3.0.x over 2.2.8a? When we double-click on the following reg file: m:\xpapps\hvcc\reg\visstud\hkcuvccomb.reg We get a registry editor error: Cannot import m:\xpapps\hvcc\reg\visstud\HSCNGB~G.REG: Error opening file.

We have an occasional problem which manifests with multiple processes being created for a particular user. For example, for a user "xy004": xy004 8463 0.0 0.0 6.02M 0K ??

I a have a problem resulting from a neat tool I developed through the use of the "root preexec" option: This is done in the [homes] section of smb.conf. I launch a shell script with the user name (%u) and machine name (%m). The shell calls a C program to check the users quota and returns a code as the percentage of quota used. Meanwhile, all output of the C program has been captured

I have been trying to configure/compile Samba 3.5.2 and 3.4.7 on AIX 5.3 with ML-11 and ML-10. The configure issues that I am getting only occur if I use --with-ads. I can run configure on both versions if I do not include ADS support. The errors I get are: checking for krb5_principal_get_realm... no checking for krb5_princ_realm... no configure: WARNING: krb5_mk_req_extended not found in

Help please. I am in the process of configuring Samba 3.0.14a onto 4 AIX 5.3 systems. It seems to be working OK on 3 of the 4, but on the last one, I cannot start smbd. nmbd seems to start fine. The smb.conf file matches the other servers except that the server name is changed. Here's the error showing up on the log.smbd file. [2007/05/02 15:19:47, 0] smbd/server.c:main(835) standard

Hello AIX folks, I am changing the packaging of Samba for AIX. Presently Samba is built with a truckload of static libs and bound up in a package that has no other support for the supporting infrastructure. What I'd like to do instead is make as much of the package dependant upon shared libs and to allow for completeness of the package. In other words, BDB, OpenSSL, OpenLDAP, SASL, KRB5,

I have a *big* problem with Access 2000 running on a Windows 2000-SP2 PC on 2.2.3a. The error: "Visual Basic for Applications Project in This Database is Corrupt" I have a log level 10 of the 2.2.3a samba for that machine. Then, I returned to 2.2.2 and did the same thing (log level 10). No error! When I go back to 2.2.3a, I can create the problem over and over again. Who wants

AIX 5.2 OpenLDAP 2.2.15 Samba 3.0.7 (no winbindd) I've got a stupid problem with referrals that I can't seem to ferret out. Each Samba DC has a localhost-based LDAP replica for scalability (my idea anyway). So the only way they will talk to the Master is if there is need for an update. Ok. If I make the updatedn the same as the rootdn of the replica, it updates the local database;

I have been trying to get AIX 5.3 ML-11 integrated with MS AD (MS-2003 with SP2 and SFU 3.5). It has given me a few y hairs. I have not been able to get it to function correctly. I have followed various tech articles and installation notes that I have found on the web. They are all basically the same in that they suggest to either compile the required components from scratch or to use the

Hi, When we first installed SAMBA on our IBM AIX 5.3 server, we created 6 shares. For some reason we have discovered that to access a Samba share we always had to assign one share ahead of all others to a user for that user to gain access. ( i.e. If a user requires access to the "extracts" share, we have to assign the "reports" share first in the user login, and then assign

hi*& ppl, can anyone help me? I haven't problems with NT clients to samba PDC. But I can not setup win95/98 clients to user based security, because win95/98 never can retrieve user list from samba pdc. Is it released? I can find any info about this problem. Thanks, Eugeny.

I administer an NT network. My boss administers the Unix side. He runs a box that runs Samba. Our NT users have a share on the Samba box that is mapped by their NT profile. It contains their profile and personal file storage. We are planning a move to Windows 2000. It will be in native mode (no NT boxes, no WINS, no netbios). Can Samba handle authentication with Win 2000? What version of Samba
