I recently couldn't connect to a windowXP domain share from a winXP client.(Samba is the PDC) When I attempted to mount the share from the samba server this is the error I got. colin@Alfalfa:~/oakwood$ smbmount //buckwheat/share buckwheat/ Password: 6586: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnomem (Insufficient server memory to perform the requested function.) colin@Alfalfa:~/oakwood$ smbmount

Hi, This is a question regarding WINS in Samba 4 I need to add a permanent record to the WINS database in Samba I'm using Samba 4.1.17+dfsg-2+deb8u1 in Debian 8 According to this document: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-HOWTO/tdb.html There are two files where the WINS records are stored: wins.dat which is re-created upon restart, and wins.tdb which is meant to be the

Hi All: I have problems with maintain tdb files. From samba doc, these files are = classified into persistent and temporary.

Hi, I've got a strange problem with address resolution in a mixed Network with Samba on Linux as Server and Win2k / XP clients. At first my setup: - SuSE Linux 8.1 - Samba Version 2.2.5-SuSE on SuSE 8.1 (smd.conf attached) - nmbd is configured to act as a WINS server. - DHCP is installed (dhcpd.conf attached) - No DNS is installed Everything worked fine until a temporary Server-Down-Time,

I've recently setup an iSCSI portal on my network and have taken some servers offline. However, due to the requirements of certain software programs I need to use UNC paths. I was able to fix this issue by adding CNAME into my DNS. I'm still finding that certain programs still require to view the browse list to find the appropriate server. Since CNAME doesn't link to the

Here is the problem: Installed Debian Woody Installed Samba 3.02a-1 Setup Samba Setup Network to use Static IP address (Being a PDC / WINS Server and all...) Now I'm getting the following: >ifconfig eth0 eth0: Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr: [MAC address here] inet addr:192.168.x.19 Bcast:192.168.x.255 Mask: 255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 .....etc....

I am running Samba 3.4.8 as a PDC on Solaris 10. I recently made this the WINS master- previously the BDC (Samba 3.0.37 on another Solaris 10 server.) I also use Sonicwall ipsec VPN for remote access (Windows XP clients.) The sonicwall client creates a virtual NIC on the client so that the client can have an IP address directly on the company LAN (ie. the same LAN as the samba

Hi, I'm wondering how to setup my DNS server (BIND 9.1.1) to read a zone from my wins.dat file. Is there a script I can use, or is there some other way to do it? I'm a linux newbie so a lot of info helps! Thanks, Jeff Nichols -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hi all. I want to add static entries to wins.I look over the book <Samba-HOWTO-Collection> for the v3.2 of samba. That tell me "All you have to do is add a line to wins.dat". I try this. But we should shutdown the nmbd,and then start nmbd. I want to stop the service. What can I do with samba4 or 3??

Hello list members. I have a curious problem with Samba 3.0.20 on Slackware 11. This net has 7 PCs and 6 of them "run" WinME. I have activated WINS support on the GNU/Linux/Samba server. When I do > ping servidor on a WinME box, it pings to 192.168.0.1, which is the "oficina2" (WinME) box not "servidor" (Slackware). I've looked at the wins.dat file

Our domain controller is running Samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 8. We have XP laptops. We swap between a builtin network card, docking port and wireless card. All of these have separate IP addresses. If I say, boot up with the wireless card, then remove it and use the builtin network card, the IP address in wins.dat on the server doesn't change. It still has the IP address of the wireless card.

Hi. I need to use the ntlm_auth module to auth. users so a group can use Internet and other not, using squid. The users that belong to "Internet" group may use Internet.

My wins.dat seems to be rather out of date. I'm running Samba 2.2.2 as a wins server with dhcp. When the client address changes, Samba doesn't seem to update wins. The clients are Win2k & WinXP. In the manual page, it suggests that I shouldn't change the max/min ttl parameters. Can I hook dhcp to samba somehow? Rebooting the out of date clients triggered Samba to update

Hello: First, sorry for my English. I'm testing samba4 rc5. I have compiled and installed samba4 and now I'm trying to simulate an upgrade from my samba3 site to my samba4 test installation. I have setup a isolated network and I have replicated server and clients, copied my samba3 ldap contents and tdb files. But, when I run samba-tool classicupgrade following to the docs,

Is it normal that the gencache.tdb should grow and grow “forever” and fill up with “RA/<hex>” posts? I’ve been investigating why our Samba 4.7.3 servers (happened with older version 4 servers too) would use such insane amounts of memory on our FreeBSD 11.1 servers (we see smbd processes using hundreds of megabytes of RAM and up to 5GB virtual memory). Anyway, one part that seems to use

Hi, This morning three of our FreeBSD-11.1-p11 servers with Samba 4.7.7 installations started to ignore ACL settings and reject user access to shares.  All three servers are members of DC running on Windows Server 2008R2.  Everything has been running ok for last few year.  I have been upgrading Samba and FreeBSD installations and on last Friday upgraded to the latest packages from

Colleagues- I'm experiencing a very odd problem that seems to be the root of some cross-subnet domain logon / browsing problems I am experiencing. Basically, I have a Samba 3.0.8 box acting as a PDC and WINS server for an NT style domain that is primarily on one subnet, but has a few users on others. On subnets other than the one the server resides on, domain logons fail sporadically.
