Dear all, I regret that I am very new to this tool from the install side. I have so far altered shares on a running machine only. I have (thanks to Joss for some help already) installed version 3.4.3 under AIX 6.1 giving it our preferred base directory of /opt/freeware/samba/3.4.3 I have copied over the smb.conf file from the source machine (AIX 5.2 / Samba 2.0.7) and tweaked the content of

Dear all, I have been given the task of replacing the hardware we inherited from an outsourcing deal some time ago. The live server is AIX 5.2 running Samba 2.0.7. The replacement server is running AIX 6.1 and GNU C compiler version 4.2.0-3. We are not licenced for the IBM C compiler. I have downloaded Samba 3.4.2 (as samba-latest.tar.gz via the samba.org site) and I'm stuck. As a very

Environment: Solaris 2.5.1 Samba 1.9.18p3 We run samba from inetd (no special reason - just how its been done in the past). Then on one server we got masses of Samba daemons running (up to 40 as a time trying to run - load average 40+!), giving following complaints: Sep 28 14:39:06 zeus.brunel.ac.uk smbd[10728]: standard input is not a socket, a ssuming -D option Sep 28 14:39:06

I moved an entire RH 6.2 server from one CPU to a new one using a tape backup/restore. Everything from the old server is working on the new server, but when SysV starts up smb, the nmbd daemon (2.0.6) exits with an error: create_subnets: No local interfaces! eth0 has already started according to the logs and console. Any ideas? Thanks. ______________________ Greg Kelley, IT Director SSA, EAA,

Everyone, I have configured a new SLES 10 server exactly the same as I had previously configured a SLES 9 server. The only difference is the version of samba. On the SLES 10 server, I am running the 3.0.23c level, the SLES 9 server is behind a little. My problem is with connecting to other AD domains. Only my default domain has a valid sequence number. All the other domains are

Hi. I'm getting messages to the effect: Inetd: /usr/local/samba/lib/nmbd: Hangup Last messages repeat 319 times I start samba from inetd. Should I be starting it as a daemon or starting it in init.d? If starting it as a daemon in in init.d, does someone have a script that can let me use? I'm running samba on an a Sun E450, with Solaris 2.7. Thanks. grant

Hello people.... Ok I am having a strange problem with samba and more specificaly the nmb daemon. I run smbd and nmbd as daemons from the /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf so they run from inetd. But when I check the status with SWAT it tells me that nmbd is not running. So I have to issue the command nmbd -D manualy. Why? my setting on /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf are exactly like the

hi, masters! i have installed RedHat 7.2 and Samba 2.2.5. i did everything step by step: ./configure , make , make install , etc... i cannot start 'smbd' and 'nmbd' daemons. i try to run them from the command line or from inetd and i get something like: "there is no such command" all Samba commands are in the same hierarchy /usr/local/samba/bin. i can run other

[Apologies to sending to both samba & samba-technical lists - but I feel this is an issue to be aware of and an issue that may need fixing] This is what I have discovered with Samba 1.9.18p10 on Solaris 2.5.1: In contrast to smbd which checks its configuration files every minute or so, nmbd only does so on startup and on receipt of a HUP signal. This is not documented in the nmbd manual

Hi, I've install Samba on AIX 3.2.5 and I'd like to know if there are large companies using Samba ? What's the size of your company ? How many users ? Do you know a limit of Samba ? (performances) Thanks Vincent Ceriani

I am running SuSE V 8 with KDE 3 and had a memory problem when the screen would lose icons, taskbars etc. I am very much a newbie and everything was going along smoothly, even managed to get Cups up and running and printing across the small Lan to a windows printer. The problem is being caused by nmbd starting up in a loop causing dozens of instances to run each with their own PID until such

Hi, I've been running Samba successfully for several years. I tried running Samba on a new computer under Redhat 7.3 using a test smb.conf where testparm shows no errors. Running "smb start" runs properly i.e. starts smbd and nmbd, but after a few seconds both programs stop running (running "ps aux| grep smbd" shows job running, running "ps...." again shows

Hi All, I has been trying to port the Samba package to uClinux. But our uClinux toolchain doesn't support the fork() call. I must replace the fork with vfork.If we use vfork, the smbd and nmbd can not work rightly. both samba-3.0.32 and samba-3.0.2a have the question. In samba/source/smbd/server.c, the function open_sockets_smbd(), creates a child process and a parent process. Both these

I've got a share from a Unisys MCP Mainframe mounted with mount.cifs from RHEL 6.1 (samba-common-3.5.6-86.el6.x86_64). when I try to touch a file, it creates the file, but reports an error - "setting times of `testfile.txt': Permission denied" strace on the touch command shows that it is erroring out on the utimensat() call utimensat(0, NULL, NULL, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission

John, One of my previous jobs was at Unisys doing a dynamic translator for the Univac 1100 / 2200 series computers. We chose LLVM for the base of the translator for its modularity, optimizations, and x86 code generation. We wrote a front-end that parsed Univac instructions and generated IR for them. It all ran on X86-Linux boxes which with some special peripheral adaptors were then
