I have tried this with a bunch of different versions of Samba, starting somewhere in the 3.0.1 series. I am currently running 3.0.34 on several Gentoo servers, all showing the same problem. I am almost positive it is not a Samba issue, but I was just hoping that someone may have experienced it and knows if there is a solution. When I have the current Novell Netware client installed on XP

I am currently researching the possibility of slowly moving an existing Novell network [with all Windows clients except mine :)] to something Linux based. I have about 900 clients that would be slowly migrated if this whole thing is feasible. The version of NetWare we are using now is no longer "officially supported" from Novell, so it is becoming more and more difficult to successfully

Security problem with Samba on Linux ------------------------------------ In Samba releases 3.5.0, 3.4.6 and 3.3.11 new code was added to fix a problem with Linux asynchronous IO handling. This code introduced a severe security flaw which was undetected until now. We are releasing new binaries and fixed source code as release numbers: 3.5.1, 3.4.7 and 3.3.12 with this fix included. This will be

I currently have a 95% Novell Network network that continues to have constant printing issues. Enough Novell bashing, here lies the problem. I am trying to migrate all of our printers over to a samba print server, but in several of my tests I have come up with problems. I will attach my smb.conf at the end for those of you that wish to see it. I am using lprng as the printing backend because all

Okay, I've been chasing performance for a while now. I have no idea if I should be trying to get better performance or if I'm getting all I can out of my hardware.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I cannot find anything in the documentation or mailing list that addresses this oddity. I've installed Samba Version 3.4.7 on Ubuntu Server 10.04, and I'm utterly confused by samba's behavior regarding permissions. Users on the server have home directories in /home/chemgroup/username. (chemgroup is actually a symlink to another

to only show shares that the user has access too, but I don't believe it is possible. To remedy this, I tried to create a share called "share". Then create subdirectories under that using UNIX groups. I am using a group sticky bit in conjunction with create mask = 770 to keep the perms straight. Here is the share: [share] nt acl support = no path =

Hi, I need to create a large number of users in the smbpasswd file.Is there a way to do this without having to type passwords? I need a batch mode. Using Samba 3. Thanks, Craig

I've rolled 2 virtual servers running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and have installed the SerNet packages. SRV1 has the AD setup and SRV2 is a member server. I've followed the wiki for both servers to the letter, and winbind still refuses to grab info on the member server. I rolled the provision with --use-rfc2307, added a bunch of users with samba-tool. I then manually created a group and made sure

I'm using Samba 4.2.0 and cups 2.0.2. I have had the same print server and config since the early 3.x days and have never had an issue. Now suddenly, any new printers added to cups can no longer be installed in Windows. XP clients give a generic "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Either the printer name was typed incorrectly, or the specified priner has lost its connection to the

I ran "yum upgrade" early yesterday from a remote ssh login, but upon looking at the set of packages I decided to wait until I could sit at the console to reboot. So I declined to proceed with the upgrade when prompted. Later when I ran "yum ugrade" again, it found no packages to update. After some poking around checking the mirrors, running "yum clean headers",

I was thinking of putting a slightly bigger HD on my Linux server and would like to know the easiest way. I know that ghost works well on FAT32 partitions, but does it work on Ext3 partitions too? Id rather not reinstall if I don't have to, so any and all suggestions are appreciated. TIA Kev

I'm using a Samba4 ADDC and just noticed that the SSL that was created at install time is about to expire. Is there something Samba specific to create a new certificate, or should I manually create a new one using openssl? Thanks!

There is now a kernel-3.18.25-18 that fixes CVE-2016-0728 (and upgrades to the lastest 3.18 LTS kernel) for Xen4CentOS users. This kernel can be tested from here: http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-xen-common-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/ (CentOS-6) and here: http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-common-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/ (CentOS-7) Once we get several tested installs we can move this
