similar to: Implimenting MSDFS Issue

I encountered strange behaviour of "msdfs" when using together with "netbios aliases". E.g I have in smb.conf: [global] netbios name = server netbios aliases = server-oldname .... host msdfs = Yes [share1] path = /var/samba/share1 [share2] msdfs root = Yes msdfs proxy = \penguin\share2 .... From a windows (XP) machine I can now see: \\server\share1 and

Hi, until now the users here did access the samba shares directly via \\server\share. The number of shares is rising and it should now be possible to access shares by the department they belong to. Thus the users need only one drive letter and not many in their windows explorer. To accomplish this I tried the msdfs approach and it's working very nicely. on serverA: share1 ->

We restored to 3.0.23d after update to 3.0.25a because of strange dfs behavior. the detailed situation: on msdfs root server 'samba' ls -lR dfsroot/: drwxr-xr-x appl1 dfsroot/appl1 lrwxrwxrwx share1 -> msdfs:server1\share1 [dfs] comment = "SaMBa DFS root" path = /path.../dfsroot # next line does not work prior 3.0.25 !!! # hide unreadable = Yes

Hello Jeremy, I think you missed a "/" in: mount --bind /share1/DVR /medium/DVR mount --bind /share1/Audio /medium/Audio mount --bind /share2/Video /medium/Video mount --bind /share2/Backups /medium/Backups BR, Matt On Thu, Feb 13, 2020 at 5:15 PM Jeremy Allison via samba < samba at lists.samba.org> wrote: > On Thu, Feb 13, 2020 at 04:45:16PM -0500, Hal Vaughan via samba

Is the issue below addressed in 3.0.25b? (no freebsd port available yet so I'm still at 3.0.25a) I can't see anything specifically about this in the release notes. I just want to add that I've also seen this behaviour on a windows xp x64 client. It's a pretty serious problem.. so I'm also thinking I may have to revert to an earlier version if it doesn't look like a

Hello, I'm setting up MSDFS feature in samba-2.2.0-alpha3. It works very great! But I'm would wish an extension to the MSDFS functionality: Is it possible to implement a feature, so I could group junction points within directories? E.g.: [pub] path = /export/publicsmb msdfs root = yes PUB | +- dir1 <- directory manually created in /export/publicsmb | | |

A sysadmin moved a share from one Windows server to another. I am now getting error 13 when trying to mount the share from the new server. The following worked before the server was replaced: mount.cifs //ipaddress1/share1$ /mnt/share1 -o credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,rw mount.cifs //ipaddress2/share2$ /mnt/share2 -o credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,ro Change: server

Hi guys, I haven't seen any replies to this, but im seeing the exact same thing with Fedora 7 samba (with all the currently available patches). using winbind into a an ADS realm. My samba is 3.0.25b. Clients are XP, 2003 r2 SE and EE 32bit, 2003 r2 SE 64 bit. All work ok for a while, then suddenly start doing the same as below. I.e., when mapped it looks fine, then some time in the future

List, I'm having trouble accessing shares, and I'm getting conflicting indications on whether I've successfully joined the domain with my PC and Samba server (which may bear on the share problem). I really could use some help; I've not been able to recognize anything in the docs or via Google that helps. I'm running SUSE 9.3 and Samba 3.0.21a, and I'm trying to

Hi, Can anyone tell me if the following is possible I need 2 Samba Shares for example share1 and share2, both sharing an identical location, however I want once PC to connect using share1 and everyone else to use share2 so far so good this works. However, at 1am in the morning I want to stop share2 and disconnect users whilst not effecting access via share1. Then at 2am restart share2.

Hi all, I am experiencing something similar to what Andreas described on march 9th. Since upgrade to samba-4.12.0, users can sometimes have errors on accessing shares. Errors can be different, most often NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION, but also "Invalid handle". Just restarting smbd fixes the issue, for a while. The server serves six shares: one or a few may be locked, the other are

Dear All I have a question from you, if you can please answer it. I have a linux server, with samba installed on it. I have 3 groups as, GroupA, GroupB, GroupC Each group is having let suppose 10 members from 0-9 I have 3 shares on my smb.con as Share1, Share2, and Share3 Now what I want it to give the read access to every one on each share and give write access of GroupA to Share1, Share2 give

I haven?t used Samba for over a decade and, from what I remember, I don?t think this is possible. Whenever I search for "two mount points" or "multiple mount points," I get hits for "multiple users," but not for mount points. I have the following directories I want to share through Samba: /share1/DVR /share1/Audio /share2/Video /share2/Backups /share1 is on

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

Hello, I have problems removing the permission settings on a directory/folder after configuration of a share. My folders look like: /var/folder1/folder2/ I created share1 on folder1 and share2 on folder2. Afterwards, I activated ACLs and set permission on folder1 to domain/group1 and on folder2 to domain/group2. I couldn't access share2 with a user from group2 and I figured out that Samba

Dear, all. I am pulling my hair because I could not find any error messsages that could point me to a fix to my problem. The directory I want to share was mounted on /home with drbd and heartbeat but then my users could not access any shares / their home directories. However, if I set up shares else where on my box like share under /opt or /usr/local, then the same users would be able to access

I make all steps in the guide: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/install.html#id2546028 but command (exetuded in the same computer where is samba): smbclient //fc9/tester -Utester%test gives error: Domain=[DZTI] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.0-17.fc9] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME The user tester have been created by commands: useradd tester smbpasswd -a

Hi all, The part that I don’t understand is why the behavior is different when there are ACLs involved. Take the below example: # This share is chmod 777, [share1] path = /srv/share1 # mode is 0777, no ACLs readonly = no create mask = 0660 [share2] path = /srv/share2 # mode is 0770, ACLs readonly = no inherit acts = yes create mask = 0660 share1 acts exactly as expected — I get a 0660

Hi, I?m running a samba 4.0.16 under Debian Squeeze 6.0.9, i?ve noted under standalone role mode file transfer on shares is almost twice as fast compared to AD DC mode for big and small files .Settings for the shares when was testing under standalone mode was exactly the same, any suggestions ? root at pdc:~# testparm Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf rlimit_max: increasing
