Hello list, I'm running ubuntu server 7.10 amd64 and trying to set up a samba server for a LAN. Samba version is 3.0.26a IIRC (I can't access the machine ATM) I'm stumped with a problem and I believe it's related, somehow, with the 'force user' parameter, so I created this testcase to seek for help... In the example smb.conf I'm trying to create one share accessible

Hi, I am really stuggeling with Samba, searched forums and checked tutorials, so far with no success. So you are my last resort and probably the first place I should have checked, but I am completly new to mail groups, so please be patient with me. Users can log in to the Samba PDC domain successfully and get the login script executed just fine. But: 1.) If user A is creating a file then user

Hello, I recently upgraded from Samba 3.0.22 to 3.0.25c on Solaris, and after doing so I noticed a sudden proliferation of new error messages in the Samba log, such as: [2007/08/27 15:36:03, 2] smbd/sesssetup.c:setup_new_vc_session(1200) setup_new_vc_session: New VC == 0, if NT4.x compatible we would close all old resources.

Hi, two days ago my functioning samba/ldap server stopped working. I *think* the problem is somehow related to the fact i transfered everything to a new server, but that was two months ago. Trouble started yesterday morning after a power-outage. Configuration: ubuntu 8.04, with a standard samba, ldap and smbldap-tools installed via apt-get. When users tried to login, they got a message "a

Strange problem, Trying to run a samba server as a PDC, I have created samba users and shares. I can access the shares however I am unable to connect to the domain.

Hi, I have samba-3.0.23d-1tr on a trustix 3.0 system. This samba was joined to a win 2k3 domain and it works perfect for lot of months. Now I can access only to tmp share, and samba server is very slow to expose all shares. If I launch wbinfo -u or wbinfo -g, I still see the users/group from win2k3 server, but in the log of my winxp client (whose name is Euro15), I see: [2006/12/27 11:52:31, 2]

I would like to deny users access to the pdc based on the hostname. so if username1 logs into computer1, that is allowed, if the user logs of, and goes on to computer2, it will be denied because computer2 is a staff machine we have students that will sometimes try to use staff machines and i want the login to fail. i have lots of log entries that look like.

Hi Rowland/All, I have tried upgrading our Samba from 3.0.28 to 4.3.8. I didn't wanted to remove my old working version, so I just stopped my samba service and installed new version. I have overwritten the new smb.conf with our existing smb.conf and tried restarting with the new startup scripts. 4.3.8 is having three startup scripts smbd, nmbd, winbindd and I tried restarting all of them.

Hi, I have a very small setup, one XP/clinet and one Vista/client and a Ubuntu/samba server. I like to cleanup my log.smbd but I can't figure out how! I have everything up and running and I can access the share's from the XP client. I googled around and it seems that I should bind some Windows group/user against Unix group/users with something like 'net groupmap add rid=2512

I have a friend that had a samba server go down. They switched to another server and are having problems with people logging into it from Windows 98. If the same user logs in from WinXp then everything works otherwise they get an error. He also said that the smb.conf files were the same on both servers. >From the errors it almost looks like some sort of permission problem, but since it logs

Hi! First, let me apologize for the length of this message. I wanted to include as much relevant info as I could and it got a bit lengthy.

We currently have about 40 computers serving about 150 people.
