I'm working on a couple of Yocto Project based embedded projects, one using a Gumstix Overo board and the other using an Intel Atom motherboard. Both need a simple Samba server, which isn't included in the standard build. The only existing Yocto-compatible recipe for Samba is an OpenEmbedded one for version 3.6.8. I was quite surprised to find that adding Samba almost tripled the size of

For a long time, I've had a share set up on my Samba server (Ubuntu 14.04) that gives me read/write access to /. (It's a machine that does Yocto Linux builds, nothing proprietary on it.) I routinely accessed it from a couple of Win7 boxes and one Mac. A few days ago, I installed some Ubuntu updates, and suddenly the share stopped working. I could open the machine, and I could open the

I'm having trouble changing the machine name programmatically on Samba 4 (running under systemd). There's no "netbios name" option in smb.conf, so I'm relying on it using the hostname. Here's what I'm doing: 1) Call sethostname() with the new name. 2) Write the same name into /etc/hostname, to make it nonvolatile. 3) Read a decimal number from /var/run/smbd.pid.

This is an embedded system without a lot of high-level utilities like you get on Ubuntu. -- Ciao, Paul D. DeRocco Paul mailto:pderocco at ix.netcom.com

I know how to do it through systemctl, but I was

I have an embedded box (Yocto Project based linux distro) to which I'm adding Samba 3.6 (from OpenEmbedded). All I need it for is to provide one browsable file share that allows read/write access to anyone on the network. But I want it to be password protected. My best guess as to what goes into smb.conf is: [global] workgroup=WORKGROUP netbios name=MACHINE security=share

I have a Windows home network with a bunch of Windows boxes and two Ubuntu boxes. Everything can access shares on everything else, with one exception: no one can get to the one share on the second Ubuntu box which I just added to the system. All my machines have one user account (admin privileges in Windows) with the name "pauld" and the same password. In an effort to solve this problem

I've got an embedded x86 system built with Yocto, which boots from a USB flash drive. It uses a loop mount to give access to an ext3 root file system contained within a FAT16 file, which means it has persistent storage. What I want is something that boots from the flash drive, but copies everything into a large RAM disk, and runs from there, so that it doesn't touch the flash drive once

I've read what I can find about SMB passwords, but I don't get what they are. Are they Unix passwords or an alternative to them? If I have a file share, and the underlying file system requires some sort of credentials to access it, what is the relationship between that and an SMB password? If a client tries to access the share, using a user account that is listed in the smbpasswd file,

The docs say that sending SIGHUP to smbd triggers an immediate reread of the configuration. There's generally more than one instance of smbd running, though. Can I send the signal to any one, or is there one in particular that handles it, or must I send it to all of them? More to the point, my embedded system stores a single process ID in /var/run/smbd.pid; will signalling that reliable

Systemd service files are generally coming with packages. This means these files can be overwritten by some system update if this updates also your Samba packages (note: I never had nor tested that behaviour with Samba packages, but it happens for other packages). 2016-02-23 8:39 GMT+01:00 L.P.H. van Belle <belle at bazuin.nl>: > Uh... just add : > > netbios name = PC_NAME >

I'm using the Yocto Project to build an embedded distro, to which I'm adding Samba 3.6 from OpenEmbedded. Doing so increases my root file system from about 63MB to 175MB. I seem to be building a large Samba server with a small ancillary operating system tacked onto it. I listed the files in my file system image, and see that lots of the commands are quite large. I understand that Samba 4

The Gestalt System project aims to develop a free, Open Source, object-oriented software framework which makes use of other free, Open Source software tools for the purposes of managing, analysing, and reporting on quantitative data in a manner which is suited to modern, networked computing environments in which processor, memory, and storage resources are abundant but time is scarce and

It pulled the call to send_file_list(-1,...), which is what handled the one_file_system code. It's not like we can easily go back either, since flist.c 1.267 removed support for f=-1. Bummer. --

My apologies to this list for an automated spam reply which made its way here recently. I've been advised of it by several subscribers off-list. I've disabled the automated response feature of my spam filter (Lars Wirzenius's "spamfilter" procmail recipies). I'm finding the tool effective but overly aggressive -- if anyone here has experience with this tool, I'd

I have a GNU/Linux / Unix application in which I'd like to have an R process running in a persistant state, while receiving instructions (and data) from another process, and returning results to this process. My initial thoughts are to set something up with named pipes or such, but I believe that the R process will terminate when it reads EOF (^D) from the input pipe. The client process is

I'm curious to know where the tdbsam password database file is kept on my Fedora 7 system. Using the unmodified smb.conf file that shipped with Fedora 7, I've enabled users using smbpasswd, and successfully accessed shares. I just can't figure out where the password database is located: [root@box ~]# service smb start [root@box ~]# setsebool samba_enable_home_dirs on [root@box ~]#

So, I just got my GumStix Stuart BT today: http://www.gumstix.com For a non-telephony (Bluetooth based) project. I'm browsing the SVN website for Gumstix and lo and behold, there is Asterisk! I'm excited. Has anyone ever tried it on a GumStix before, and if so, care to share tips? If anybody is curious, this is a PC the size of 2 packs of Wrigley's Spearmint Gum put together. Runs
