I've tried building samba 3.0.20 and 21a without luck. I've tried binaries and they all give this error. I know I am missing something but nothing points to a solution. ../bin/smbstatus exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program ../bin/smbstatus because of the following errors: 0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for /usr/lib/libc.a(posix_aio.o) because: 0509-136 Symbol

Hello: I have a server set up a CentOS 5 server for a client to push files onto using FTP. I have a cron job to process the files and move them to another directory. Sometimes, the cron job executes while the client is still uploading a file (Some of them can be large) and I get a partial file. Is there a way to tell when a file has finished uploading? I am using the vsftpd daemon installed

Here's a thought: what about doing an lsof? If a file is still being written by ftpd it should be open for writing.

I want to upgrade my samba installation from 3.0.9-1.3E.3 to 3.0.20 without breaking anything along the way :) Any suggestions about order of installation? It looks like I will have to nodeps at least some of the packages. I have everything working with our AD environment so I don't want to disturb it if possible. Thanks in advance, Chuck

I want to limit access to shares via windows groups but when I set a share to anything other than 'valid users = %S' or 'valid users =', I cannot access the share. The error message indicates that the share is not accessible and I may not have sufficient permissions. If I change just the valid users in smb.conf and restart smb, I get right in without prompting. I also found that I

Hello: I have a Supermicro SuperServer 5015P-TR. It has a Pentium D and is running CentOS x86_64. Can this machine use 8GB RAM? I think it should because it is running a 64 bit OS, but I am concerned because it is fundamentally 32 bit hardware. Anyone have any experience in this area?

Hello: I have a machine running CentOS 5.2 I added two IP addresses to eth0 by copying /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1 and changing the relevant IP info.

Hello: I followed the instructions here: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/ch02s04s01.html to put isolinux on a usb drive. When I boot from the usb drive, the installer comes up and I can do a network install. I have to say that is very impressive! But, since I have a 4GB usb drive, I am thinking I can load the rest of the installation onto the usb drive so I do not have

Hello: I tried this command to tar up a set of data files updated since yesterday (The data directory contains multiple files with varying dates): /bin/tar -z -c -N 2009-03-25 -f /tmp/test.tgz data When I look at the content of the test.tgz file, it looks like it copied the content of the entire directory, not just the newer files. I am on CentOS 5. Any ideas? Thanks, Neil -- Neil
