similar to: Sharing an NFS mount via samba

I'm newbies in SAMBA and NetApp filer , I use Filer with OpenLDAP as an authentication and authorization server , but look like NetApp doesn't work properly ( can't authentication ) , NetApp engineer suggest me that NetApp work properly with pure ActiveDirectory Environment. not SAMBA + OpenLDAP backend like me have. so I solve this problem by make Samba as native PDC and use

Hello I have troubles with some shares that are NFS mounted to a Netapp filer, if I enable locking on that share, the file cannot be opened by the windows client in write mode ( read only after a looong time ) Anyone has the same problem , it seems to be a Netapp bug but they do not support samba at all :-) so I don't expect any answer from them. thanks

We are having a problem getting a NetApp filer to re-join a samba domain after a move to a new network. The filer worked fine with samba before the move. Apologies in advance for the long missive. I've tried the following: - re-running the CIFS setup program on the filer - removing the problem filer's samba account, replacing it, and re-running the setup program on the filer

Greetings - I'm now in the last couple of weeks before going live with Dovecot (v1.0.3) on our revamped IMAP service. I'd like to double-check about the best mount options to use; could someone advise, please? I have three separate directory trees for the message store, the control files and the index files. These are arranged as follows: Message Store Mounted over NFS from

Hello, I'll soon have to migrate our samba shares to a netapp filer (not my decision). Currently the shares are on an xfs filesystem and served by samba 3.5.2, which is also the domain controller (a role that it will maintain, only the shares are being transferred) and sama/unix users are in ldap. The filer is in the domain and uses ldap to map user ids and that seems to work. Samba maps the

Reading the "waiting IOs" thread made me remember I have a similar problem that has been here for months, and I have no sulution yet. A single CentOS 5.2 x86_64 machine here is overloading our NetApp filer with excessive NFS getattr, lookup and access operations. The weird thing is that the number of these operations increases over time. I have an mrtg graph (which I didn't

My setup is fairly straight forward; I have a Solaris 10 (SPARC) being used as a samba server with AD sign on. Users can log in fine and map their directories through windows clients. All the user home dirs and critical project dirs are on a NetAPP filer. When user tries to write a file, it is erroring out with I/O error, file access is permitted for read operations only. Investigating the

Hi, I'm using samba-3.2.6 on linux. Using this, I'm trying to update/modify Last Access Time(atime) of a file on CIFS share(on NetApp Filer). But not able to do so. I could successfully update atimes on windows server, but NOT on NetApp Filer. Is SET_PATH_INFO supported by NetApp filer(7.2 version)? Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks, -Kishore

Hi, We have SAMBA 3.0.33 running on RedHat 5. We are sharing home directories to users via Samba using the [homes] share. The home directories reside on a Netapp filer, (actually multiple), and are accessed by the Samba server over NFS. When users try to open a Microsoft Excel file from a Windows XP SP3

How do I go about troubeshooting this? I'm using RHEL 4 update 6. mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /blah busy It's actually an iSCSI LUN (NetApp filer). I successfully configured (ext3) and mounted it, but when I rebooted, the /dev/sdb1 device/partition is seen by the kernel and it shows up with "fdisk -l". Nevertheless I get that error. I've tried

We run our IMAP spool on ZFS that''s derived from LUNs on a Netapp filer. There''s a great deal of churn in e-mail folders, with messages appearing and being deleted frequently. I know that ZFS uses copy-on- write, so that blocks in use are never overwritten, and that deleted blocks are added to a free list. This behavior would spread the free list all over the zpool. As well,

Good ${time of the day} I have just been wondering if anyone would know if Samba is compatible with the CIFS implementation of the Network Appliance DataONTAP filers? http://www.netapp.com/products/filer/ontap.html I have so far unable to connect to any shared folder on the NetApp filer that require authentication. An attempt to access or list shared resources on the NetApp filer fails with the

Hi, we are testing a new AD domain that will replace our old NT4 one, and we are setting up a new cifs vserver of our Netapp filer (running Clustered Dataontap 9.2). The new AD domain was a clean deployment created using "samba-tool domain provision --server-role=dc --use-rfc2307 ...". All seems to work well and the Netapp filer joins the domain without errors and seems to run fine.

Hello Maybe someone could direct us to right solution with the problem descibed below. We tried different trick bo no success stories. We have a development cluster based on Dell R815 servers (+-30) and a storage server - Netapp FAS 3240 runnig Data Ontap 8.1p2. We have some 100 virtual servers - we use Xen 4.1 for virtualisation. A basics OS is Debian Squeeze with some backports packages

I used to mount some files via Samba which resided on a windows machine on a CentOS box. We moved the files to a NetApp filer, and I was unable to mount those files using either Samba or CIFS. Most of my problems with Samba were related to the (Windows?) password encryption scheme that has not been included in the Samba suite. Even if I use the mount t cifs, it didn't work. So on the

We have a "compute cluster" of about 100 machines that do a read-only NFS mount to a big NAS filer (a NetApp FAS6280). The jobs running on these boxes are analysis/simulation jobs that constantly read data off the NAS. We recently upgraded all these machines from CentOS 5.7 to CentOS 6.5. We did a "piecemeal" upgrade, usually upgrading five or so machines at a time, every few

Greetings Dovecot List, I have a bit of an edge case I am trying to resolve. I am currently using dovecot on Ubuntu 14.04 - Ubuntu package version: 1:2.2.9-1ubuntu2.3 I have attached the output of doveconf -n to this email - but to describe the configuration in a nutshell: my server is configured to use Maildir storage I do not use dovecot delivery service (there is a separate

I need some help. I can map the NetApp filer, but when I do a 'ls' in the directory I get errors. Saying that the file or directory does not exist and I know the directories and files do, you can see them when you map the NetApp with NT. If you know the name of the directory you can change into it. I can also map NT with samba just fine with no problems. The NetApp is running a CIFS server

Hello - I know I am not the only one that will be trying, or has tried this before. Here are my questions! NFS Clients, multiple servers running dovecot - linux with 2.6 kernel with relevant patches (utime, etc) Backend - netapp filer End users - various clients all running IMAP It looks like 1.0.beta8 is definately the way to go. I have a few questions with regards to setup. Is it now
