similar to: tdbbackup with bouncing/shutting down samba possible?

Hi to all, On Solaris 9 (and below I think), Samba 3.0.1pre1's tdbbackup now needs snprintf which is not included in Solaris. The following patch on master Makefile.in (~samba/source) should ease the compilation of tdbbackup : diff -u Makefile.in.orig Makefile.in --- Makefile.in.orig Mon Oct 20 11:06:54 2003 +++ Makefile.in Mon Oct 20 11:07:09 2003 @@ -629,7 +629,7 @@

I have googled a lot, but I have found no examples of the correct use of the tdbbackup program. I am looking for some advice on how to use tdbbackup. I mean, I know I can simply run "tdbbackup *.tdb", but I was looking for in-depth information on when and how to use it, about best practices on using it, or what NOT to do. The Samba documentations says I should run it in my start/stop

Hi Samba 3.5.10 centos 5.x. I can backup with tdbbackup, read samba doc but haven't found how to restore them? Any info will appreciated, thanks!!! -- LIving the dream...

Hi, I am using Version 3.0.2a of samba on Linux 2.4.18 (suse with self-compiled samba from tarball) smb.conf: [IEPRINT] path = /home/htmprint/tmp printable = Yes print command = /home/htmprint/Programme/virtual_printer.sh %s After some weeks with some thousand printjobs generated by a program running as W2k-service the printer was no more available. I checked printing

Hi, Does someone know a document which explains the TDB structure. functionalites, and format of the TDB files etc. I need to understand why some of the TDBs like messages.tdb, unexpected.tdb, brlock if not read_only, locking.tdb, session.tdb, wins.tdb are called with TDB_CLEAR_IF_FIRST tdb flags. Why some TDBs are opend with O_RDWR|O_CREAT flags viz. gencache.tdb, group_mapping.tdb,

For backup and redundancy purposes, I've been needing to replicate CUPS printer queues between two Samba servers, and came up with the following shell script. We use a fairly sizable number of CUPS printer queues printing in RAW mode, and install the printer drivers from the Windows clients, so all clients actually download the printer driver from Samba at first use.

Hello, From time to time Samba 3.0.2 performance suddenly fails bellow what is acceptable. One smbd process eats between 30% and 100% of CPU usage, and for the machine associated with the smbd process i got dozens of (debug level 2): [2004/02/25 17:59:18, 0] smbd/connection.c:register_message_flags(220) register_message_flags: tdb_fetch failed [2004/02/25 17:59:19, 0]

dear, I made the installation of Samba4 in centos6, now I need to back up the structure, tried using the script that samba.org offers more he is giving this error. See the error through the bash -x bash -x samba_backup.sh + FROMWHERE = / var / lib / samba + WHERE = / root / backups + '[' N '' ']' + '[' -n '' -a -d '' ']' + '[' -n

Hello again, my server crashed today. It crashed because it ran out of file handles, which is not Samba's fault but mine. The server runs Suse 7.2 and Samba 2.5.5 with WInbind installed. The sever crash didn't effect any file systems, because I managed to properly shut the server down. The problem is that after I rebooted, some or all of the SID - uid/gid mappings got mixed up; e.g. gid

Hello All, We have a problem with our samba-based print server (a redhat EL machine, running samba 3.2.8) occasionally getting corrupt ntprinters.tdb files. To combat it, I've been keeping nightly backups of the file, and restoring the latest whenever it crashes. This _almost_ works. When I restore the file, some of the printer settings - such as which driver it is using - seem to restore

Thanks for the reply. Now we end-up with mix uid/gid from both ranges in cache TDBs. Few user logins are denied with below error in smbd.log, *[2016/01/07 11:39:44.475960, 1, pid=5202] ../source3/auth/token_util.c:430(add_local_groups* ** SID S-1-5-21-3082371790-1274690562-2878062458-5771 -> getpwuid(10005771) failed** wbinfo --user-info=mariond mariond:*:10015138:110000513:Marion,

(yes, I know it's an old version of Samba but I *really* don't want to mess about upgrading right now) The server in question (SuSE Enterprise Linux 9) got itself in a tizz last night and was restarted cleanly via the shutdown -r command this morning. Everything comes back up, including Samba, and all is fine. Except that no-one can print. Nothing has changed in any of the
