I have a Windows Server 2003 system I'm trying to back up to a Linux host. when I access the share with smbclient, I can "see" the files (`ls` returns a list of files, etc) smbclient -U shareuser //server/sharename password But, when I try to actually mount the drive, I get "permission denied" errors trying to access the drive. (EG: using `df`) Running the following

Hi, Need some pointers. Currently using mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename /mnt/share Since I can only mount as root, (not in /etc/fstab) sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename /mnt/share Problem here is.. I can't get group or world writeable permission on the share. It's a NTFS share but that is not a problem. I can

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, i recently upgraded some of my servers from 3.0.2a to 3.0.4 after the upgrade my browselist shows duplicate entries for the domains. one domains is managed by a samba PDC(providing WINS too) and two samba BDC's. the other domains are managed by one samba PDC.

hi all I have compiled and running the latest samba (2.2.2) cause i need ldap authentication from samba. Things are working fine but when I browse the server from a windows client I just get the icons with no name of the shares displayed. Although I do get the share names if I try "smbclient -L srever". Also I do not get the share name when I use " net view \\server ". Since

Hey Jeremy, Thanks for the advice. I followed your suggestion collected the logged information for a single connection attempt (i.e. smbclient //servername/sharename -U username); I've included the log data below (in the postscript). It looks like Samba is still looking for a Unix user account and not finding one. I should mention that it seems that I am able to authenticate as the user; the

Hello Experts, I have a severe Problem with my current samba installations. Here in my Home-Office networt I have a dual-CPU machine with Debian Sarge, hosting some samba 3.0 shares and as well being a host for 4 vmware-sessions (Vmware Workstation v4.52, with 3xServer2003 and 1xXPpro). As well I have a separate raid5-server with samba 3.0 in the exakt same configuration (of course all parameters

Hi list DFS Links in a separate share seems to work, but in the [homes] section does not. Is this a known problem? Samba is 3.0.26a. /etc/smb.conf excerpts: ---------------------------- 8< ---------------------------- [global] ... host msdfs = yes ... [homes] ... msdfs root = yes ... [dfstest] path = /data/dfsroot msdfs root = yes ---------------------------- 8<

Hello, Is it possible to set up multiple Windows workgroups on a single Samba server? We have the same user, defined in 2 different workgroups (Windows Domains), and would like both of these users to connect to the same Samba share. However, we're not certain if this is possible, or what the syntax should be in the config. file. Any ideas here? Thanks, David Hansen Visit our website

Hello, I've got some problems with a Samba Server. The Samba Server is member in an Active-Directory Domain (Win2000), it is NOT the domaincontroller. Authentication is kerberos-based (smb.conf: securty=ADS, winbind). The Sambaserver is accessed by Windows-Clients, that are domainmembers and by some Windows-Client, that are not. Originally Users, who were logged on the domain could access

Can anyone tell me if files can be copied from a Unix (Solaris 2.6) host running Samba 2.0 to a Windows Server ? It appears that the 'smbclient' command might support this capability, but I can't seem to get it to work. I can use the smbclient -L to view shares and the -M to sent Windows hosts messages, so all appears to be configured correctly. (using a 'wins server' on a

Good day, I have installed a couple of Linux machines where I want to mount various Samba shares. So far, I (and various other users) do this using a credentials file, because nobody has ever been able to properly configure everything needed such that the shares can be mounted using the login credentials. However, from time to time, I try again to set things up properly. So here it goes: people

I am trying to set up roaming profiles and I got it working. Could someone confirm if Samba variables work or do not work in the user database. If I do the following option: pdbedit -s -u username -p "\\\\servername\\sharename\\profilename" my roaming profiles work fine but I have to direclty specify the server name and username. If I do not double up all the "\" it does not

Ok, i clarify a bit more. \\servername.internal.domain.tld\users2\%username% is used in my AD for the home folder of the users. %username% translates to the username. I tried 2 setups now, windows acl base setup and posix based setup. Both fail for me. THE SERVER with the shares ( and is nfs server) The samba/windows part. ( postix rights setup ) On the server this is /home/samba/users2

Hey Samba list, First a brief comment regarding my background and situation. This is my first time posting to this list. I've been asked to resolve a Samba authentication issue, but I have next to no experience using Samba. Unfortunately no one else here knows how to use it either; we're operating with an inherited environment from a sysadmin who left minimal documentation, and we have

Hello! Is it possible to change the share name of the [homes] section. Now smb.conf has the [homes] section configured, and when I list my shares with smbclient, it prints: Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- homes Disk Public folder Is is possible to change that "homes" to the name of the actual user, or

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok, I've made progress on my problems from earlier today, but have one final sticking point that's gumming up the works. On a WindowsXP box, I can access shares via \\server\sharename just fine. But if I do "net use L: \\server\sharename", I get "System error 67 has occurred. The network name cannot be found."

Hi all, I have a small problem here with Samba (version 1.9.18p7, although I upgraded this morning to p8). The server is a Sun Solaris 2.6. The clients are all Windows NT (server & workstations). All the workstations are on a subnet, and the server on another subnet (so broadcast packets are not able to move from a station to the server), so I configured Samba as a WINS server, and all

Hai..   I need to have my home dirs shared over some of my servers. I did setup a nfs4 kerberos base Debian jessie, samba 4.1.17 and sernet samba 4.1.3 on these servers.   This works, i can mount without problems.   But because verything is created with the windows user tools, the owner/Group is root. Like this   Server:   ls -al drwxrwx---+  2 root  root 4096 Sep  4 13:17

Hello, I have a Debian Squeeze server and want to configure Samba + OpenLDAP on it. Following some documentation I've found over Internet, I see that I must include the "samba schema" in OpenLDAP but apart from this, I've installed on the same server a software called "gosa" and it has a samba schema called "samba3.schema" which I don't know if
