Hi Kees, Thanks once more. To be precise: - you are running this on DCs? - no links required as on the wiki page? - "vfs objects = dfs_samba4, acl_xattr, full_audit" - I don?t have that in my smb.conf. What part(s) of this are default, required, or special? Thanks, Joachim -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: samba <samba-bounces at lists.samba.org> Im Auftrag von Kees van

No, there are 2 ways of configuring it, the wiki has the symlink method, below is the other method. I don't like broken symlinks on my machines, therefore this is what I prefer. > - "vfs objects =

Hi, I am trying to configure domain DFS (I think that's the correct term) as below, using the guide on the wiki: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS)#Configure_domain-based_DFS_in_Samba I am aware that the wiki says that this doesn't quite work... however it feels to me that it's very close, nearly working, and I might be able to get it going (hopefully?!)

Hello Rowland, If someone wants full_audit, will adding 'vfs objects = full_audit' on a DC also have dfs_samba4 and acl_xattr enabled just because running on a DC, or would this cause both defaults to be turned off?

Hello, Our company currently stores its data on centralized samba servers which causes performance problems for remote office employees. We are thinking of decentralizing the data with NAS in each office and synchronizing all the NAS on our central domain controller with MSDFS. I have heard this can be done in real time with Windows and Active Directory.

Since past the beta-times of samba 4 (and it worked in former times!!) it never worked like this: \\yourdomain\share or \\yourdomain \dfs-share. The only thing working along witch your domain is: \\yourdomain\netlogon. I had another thread open on this case some times ago.

Hai, Hmm i did a good review on the subject. As far as i can tell, on samba dfs works but not with \\your.domain.tld Just tested this also on my 4.5.8 DC's and member servers. \\DC1\dfs \\DC2\dfs Etc. works fine. Reading again : https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS) And my conclusion is, domain-based dfs does not work (yet) in samba. Greetz, Louis

Hi , I want to configure DFS on standalone server on HP UX IA 64. Could you please help me on this. Thanks.

Robert Gurdon robert.gurdon at gmail.com 12:49 (0 perce) c?mzett: samba Hai, I would like to set up a DFS with this configuration: I have 3 Samba4 servers (4.1.4). 2 of them should work as a DFS "client" the third one will be the DFS stotage (actualy this servers has the required amount of space). So, i configured all shares on DC3 and point to those shares on DC1 and DC2. Everything

Dear all, I am testeing the dfs functions with Samba4.

Hello, i'm trying to figure out some specific things about Samba DFS. 1. What is the ordering method of a DFS Share with multiple servers (e.g. msdfs:serverB\\share,serverC\\share linkb ; Source: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/msdfs.html)? With a Microsoft DFS i have 3 options regarding the target. (Targets in a client's site are listed first in a

I'm dealing with a Linux environment with extensive automounting, that also has DFS configurations for the Windows clients of various CIFS systems. I've got CIFS automounting working for various CIFS servers, which definitely has its uses, but I'd *love* to be able to mount the DIFS published paths for the CIFS shares? Basically, if I have shares called \\example1\share1 and
