Is there any piece of software that I can use to run between a client and a linux or windows server with a smb/cifs share that will test network speed, latency, sustained read/writes, multiple file create, read, write, close, etc.. etc.. over X period time? I'm testing a Centos server with samba and Windows 2k3/8 servers on the other end of a T1 connection and while I know the T1 bandwidth

Just curious, is anyone running Samba 3.x.x with LDAP using the Fedora/Redhat Directory server as the LDAP backend? -- Eric Feldhusen System Administrator http://www.remc1.org PO Box 270 (906) 482-4520 x239 809 Hecla St (906) 482-5031 fax Hancock, MI 49930 (906) 370 6202 mobile

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 ~]#

I was glancing at my logwatch report when I noticed: dovecot: IMAP(robinmail): fchown(/home/robinmail/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log.newlock, -1, 10(wheel)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=100(users), group based on /var/mail/robinmail): 1 Time(s) dovecot: IMAP(robinmail): fchown(/home/robinmail/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.tmp, -1, 10(wheel)) failed: Operation not

Folks, I like criticism! Please give me lots of it - particularly in respect of the updated "Samba-Guide". It should now be up on the Samba mirror sites. You can download it from: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf I have incorporated all feedback into this book. Did I get it right this time or should I give up? So far, not a word of feedback is deafening! Is it

I am trying to filter my imap mail sent to my phone by using sieve. Currently everything is set up and works well using mbox and sendmail as the lda. I have re-installed dovecot with sieve included and updated dovecot.conf, which gives # dovecot -n # 1.1.3: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.key disable_plaintext_auth: no

I use dovecot to push email to my SE P1i and it works very well. :) However, I have two email accounts set up on the phone, one using my domain for GPRS and public WiFi and one using my WLAN address for use at home, the idea being I don't want to pay for GPRS data at home. The trouble is the GPRS account remains logged on and I get the mail in both inboxes. There is no option in the email

Starting at midnight Feb 1 my phone can no longer fetch mail from Dovecot. It endlessly connects and reconnects as you can see in the log below. I have restarted dovecot, the phone, deleted /home/robinmail/mail, all to no avail. I have turned on debug output but it does not tell me anymore. I can connect and see the folder using the KMail imap client. Any idea how I can proceed with this? The

I am new to xen and trying to get the primary domain working properly before I create a new one. I am using the Gentoo unstable sources (2.6.16-rc5) and xen 3.0.1 and the kernel boots Ok and eth0 is activated. At this point the network is active and I can ping. Then I shutdown net.eth0 and start xend. This restarts net.eth0 and does some other stuff. Now every thing looks normal (ifconfig,

I have just installed dovecot and want to set up the drac interface. However, when I compile drac.c I get the following link errors; anybody know what the right compile options are for a 64 bit system? I have a Gentoo Linux system using the amd64 architecture. gcc -Wall -W -shared -fPIC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I$dovecot -I$dovecot/src/lib drac.c -o drac.so -ldrac

I am looking at options for VPN connections from iPhones and iPod Touches to CentOS systems. We use OpenVPN for connections with Windows, Mac OS X, and other Linux systems, but there don't appear to be any OpenVPN clients for iPhones (presumably because there are no tun/tap interfaces available yet). My experiences getting IPsec running on CentOS systems with OpenVPN have not been pretty.

I have a question about using roaming profiles in a Samba PDC controlled domain. I know that with Windows 95 and that generation or so, the profile had to be stored in the same directory as the home folder. ("/sambahomes/john/profile" for example.) You didn't have a choice because of technical reasons. But that restriction no longer applies with modern versions of Windows,

I must be missing something somewhere. I can't get our Samba server to show up when I look in Network Neighborhood under XP. If I type in \\servername\path, it won't find it, however if I use the IP, it works fine. Now, experience tells me that I'm having to type the IP because it's not resolving the name. Well fine, I can fix that, however I don't recall doing that

Hi all I just downloaded the latest sable rlease (3.0.23b). I compiled it and installed it without any problems. When I restart servers, shares configured like this : [xdavid] read list = user browseable = no path = /home/users/xdavid write list = xdavid only user = yes user = xdavid works fine, but these shares (using goups names) doesn't

I am running debian sarge 2.4.27-3-686 and samba version 3.0.14a-Debian . The previous machine was running rh 7.3 (valhalla) 2.4.20-29.7.progeny.11, samba version unknown. I have restored all shares and directories. Most of users can access everything, however our login script will not run. For those users that cannot log in re-joining them to the domain not only works but then the login

Thanks Alex, your suggestion along with some additonal tweaks helped solve my problem.

Hi I'm trying to upgrade from Samba 3.0.23c on FC4 to 3.0.25b from Samba sources. Everything appears to function correctly until an MS word document is opened from a share - the file opens but the smbd process in question rockets to 99%+ CPU, stays there & needs kill -9'ing to stop it. This happens reliably. I have an appropriate strace & a level 7 log but can't see anything
