similar to: s3fs or ntvfs

We had used Samba 4 alpha 17 for a long time and want to update our server now to Samba 4.0.x. The old Samba versions was using NTVFS and Samba 4.0.x is now using S3FS by default. So, what is the best practice now? Should we stay on NTVFS or should we switch to S3FS? The global part of our smb.conf looks like this: --- [global] interfaces = eth0 netbios name = PDC

Hi All, Im running a samba4 server. When I logged onto the server from a XP Machine and then I go to My Network Places -> Microsoft Windows Network -> Mydomain my samba4 server is not listed. What could be the reason? Should I set up anything on my XP machine? Your help will be appreciated. Thanks and regards, Fabian

For now it seems due to your smb.conf that you are not using the samba internal DNS server. It's not a must have, but samba does not provide dns. NetBIOS name should be equal to your

OK, but how can you be sure that something you are

Reading Whatsnew.txt in samba I understand that If I use s3fs, as it is set by default in the provision step, I won't be able to modify GPOs later, right? So I have a couple of questions: - What's the advantage of using s3fs over ntvfs in new installations? - If I'm planning to deploy a new Domain, probably needing to change GPOs later, should I select ntvfs??? Best regards, Felix

Hello! I've just built my first samba4 (4.0.5) on an OpenIndiana machine without any problems. But when it comes to the provision step the problems begin. Everything is fine, if I call samba-tool with the --use-ntvfs option. But I want to use samba4 with s3fs because of the support for newer SMB protocol versions. But when I call samba-tool without --use-ntvfs option I got the following:

Hello, I'm trying to configure a CIFS-Proxy.

We had used Samba alpha 17 (included in Resara Server 1.2) for a long time and has now migrate it to Samba 4.0.5 (Ubuntu + Zentyal 3.0 PPA) with NTVFS enabled . Most things seems to work: DNS with Bind9_DLZ, domain join, user login and also GPO are still working fine :) But we have trouble with file permissions now! All domain users can't rename or delete their own files which they had

I've noticed that the samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset --use-s3fs command does not work on a ZFS filesystem on FreeBSD. It does work if sysvol is moved to a volume that is able to be mounted with the acls flag. I will reference a ticket I started with FreeNAS here: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4351 As of version 9.2.1.1 s3fs is now the default using the workaround known for FreeBSD.

Hi How about calling s3fs, s4fs? Cheers, Steve

In samba-tool, sysvolreset has options for either --use-ntvfs or --use-s3fs to set the permissions appropriately However, sysvolcheck does not have the same capability, and always attempts to verify in s3 vfs. Is this a known limitation in Samba 4.0.0 ?

sorry for the noise.. I missed the solution in my mail. just saw it online.. The working version for rdp login.. I can confirm also that after adding these to the smb.conf dcerpc endpoint servers = epmapper, wkssvc, rpcecho, samr, netlogon, lsarpc, spoolss, drsuapi, dssetup, unixinfo, browser, eventlog6, backupkey, dnsserver, remote, winreg, srvsvc auth methods = sam, winbind, ntdomain,

Hi! I have successfully managed to migrate my samba 3 NT domain from gentoo to a fully operational samba 4 AD on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with roaming profiles, MMC management and what not. Over 50 users log into that daily. I've got a number of problems, but let's tackle them one by one. When I try to use smbstatus to check who is using the server and what files are being open, I'm getting:

Hi, how can accomplish access based shared enum = yes in Samba4? I want to hide a share to a user who has not read access. I read that this is possible in Samba3. Thanks in advance and regards, Fabian

Greetings, We've been testing Sernet Samba AD and are running into trouble with the RPC server unavailable message when trying to edit group policy and manage users with Windows 8.1. Upon restarting the service, we can connect to the RPC server, but after 24 hours or less, we can no longer connect. I've been trying to find more information about this issue, which was apparently

Hi , We migrated to AD account in a Ubuntu 16.04 (Samba 4.3.11)and came across issues with user shares. Some of the users were able to access the shares and some were not. The server in question has both AD and File and we followed the samba wiki to enable the Windows ACL To migrate , we ran the following samba-tool domain classicupgrade --dbdir=/var/lib/samba.PDC/dbdir --realm=lin.GROUP

Hi It seems the vfs objects are not loaded. I've joined the domain with "samba-tool domain join DOMAIN DC -UAdministrator%Passwort --realm=DOMAIN.LOCAL --server=windows-dc.domain.local --use-ntvfs" The modules zfsacl.so and recycle.so exists in /usr/local/lib/shared-modules/vfs But neither the ZFS module nor the recycler works.

Hi everyone After almost 2 days up-time with Samba 4, it failed again. This time it simply will not restart. The krb5.conf had got corrupted.
