similar to: Samba 4 documentation hard to find.

For anyone wanting to build and install Samba on a Solaris machine: I have successfully built and installed Samba 4.1.4 on a Solaris 10 i386 machine. You will have to build and install a newer version of Python before you can configure Samba. You must configure Python with --enable-shared. See bug 10261 at bugzilla.samba.org for the details of why that is. If you are going to build Samba with the

I have built Samba 4.1.4 on a Solaris 10 i386 box to be installed in /opt/local/samba4. I expected that the resulting binaries would include a run path as necessary to find the shared libraries. They did include a run path to /opt/local/lib (which would also be needed) but not to /opt/local/samba4/lib. I fixed this by re-running configure with the following options

We are having a problem that I suspect is due to nmbd giving out obsolete information. Unfortunately the problem can not be reproduced consistently. We have a build system that runs on our Solaris machines where the final files are copied into a distribution directory after being built. Note that copying a new file on top of an old one does not change the file ID. PC users sometimes will see the

This problem shows up on both Linux and Solaris. I am going to show the logs from a Fedora 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 machine. We are using 'security = domain' with a Windows 2000 domain controller. We are setting 'password server = starfish2' dispite the fact that the documentation says that this in not necessary as we have found it to be necessary. We are setting 'workgroup =

This may not be a Samba problem, but perhaps people here know the answer. We are installing some Windows 8.1 Pro computers. The servers running Samba 4.2.19 and 4.3.0 are not showing up in the Network display. Our domain controller is also not showing up. The Windows 7 computers are showing up. The domain controller is a Windows 2000 machine. I can manually map network drives to the servers

I joined a Fedora Linux box running Samba 4.1.5 to a Windows Server 2000 domain controller as an additional domain controller with the command: samba-tool domain join adi.com DC -Uadministrator --realm=adi.com --dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ The messages indicated that this was mostly sucessfull with the exception of the message: NO DNS zone information found in source domain, not replicating DNS

Arter managing to build Samba 4.1.5 on Solaris 10 i386. I tried to join an existing Windows 2000 Server Active Directory domain as an additional domain controller. The join started to work and then died with the error: Error: Samba was compiled without the posix ACL support that s3fs requires. Try installing libacl1-dev or libacl-devel, then re-run configure and make. I downloaded acl-2.2.52 and

We are running Samba 4.4.6 as a file server. In the logs for a few client machines I see entries such as: [2016/09/29 22:36:58.862575, 0] ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4402(widelinks_warning) Share 'IPC$' has wide links and unix extensions enabled. These parameters are incompatible. Wide links will be disabled for this share. I assume that Share 'IPC$' is some sort of

When Samba goes up a more major version (such as from 4.4.* to 4.5.*), they sometimes rearrange what files go in what directories. The best way to avoid trouble is to clean out the old version before installing the new one. If you build Samba to be installed in something like /usr/local then it is easy to remove the old files before installing the new ones. If you build Samba to go into the system

Adding a section of a debug level 5 log at the end that looks like it might have some usefull information. > This problem shows up on both Linux and Solaris.
