Hi all ! I'm currently developping a program that takes the smbtree output, parse it, retrieve all connected workstations, then call nmblookup for each workstation, resolve the IP, create a BIND zone file with this. At this point, the programs works; I use system( " ") calls and unsafe temporairy files. I just wanted to get it up quickly Now; to secure this programs; I tought

Hi, Trying the latest version again tonight 4.6.7 it has the same problem I've seen with the prior newer versions as well. The one I went back to was 4.4.15 which works. What is happening right now is there is a Win2K3 box that is the domain server, with thecompanydomain.com (NetBIOS domain name: COMPANY). That has the __MSBROWSE__ on it. I have a Linux Wheezy system on that is part of

I'm trying to do something that should be simple, but my current solution isn't working 100% All I need is a list of smb shares on the network. I'm doing this: /usr/bin/nmblookup -M -- - and then use this on each ip returned: /usr/bin/smbclient -g -p 139 -NL <ip addr> That works for most cases but it fails to find all the shares (compared to the mac Finder) -steve

I've tried building it on a server that I know has pretty much every library possible for a program to need, but I'm still not getting a good samba install. I'm on white-dwarf linux (kernel 2.4.25), gcc 3.3.2, Samba 3.0.2a White-dwarf is home-grown, very much like slackware. When I configure and make and make install, I don't get any errors, but I when I look for some files

Hi, I searched the documentation and the web but cannot find a way to query a wins server for all registered machines in an workgroup or domain. If I want to ask the wins with nmblookup, I have to specify a single name to lookup, wildcards are not allowed. If using the broadcast facility I can search with wildcards: nmblookup '*' -B 192.168.0.255 querying * on 192.168.0.255 192.168.0.7

I have a samba server 3.0.28a set up on ubuntu 8.04, which is accessed by a windows xp client. The windows machine can see and download all the shared folders from the linux machine, and the linux machine can download from the windows machine with smbclient. However, when I issue "findsmb" the linux machine only reports itself, not the windows machine. The man pages show it

Hi (this is most likely a newbie question). A couple of problems. I have a linux guest (puppy) running on vmplayer on a friend's machine, which runs WinXP home. I have folder sharing enabled on the host for a few different folders. I am trying to mount the winxp host shared folders onto the linux guest. First problem is that I can't seem to see the shares. smbtree only lists the

Mates, The saga continues, but THANK GOD 'make revert' WORKS. Here is my problem. I am trying to compile 3.0.7 from source and install it on my Mandrake 7.2 box. The gcc compiler is 2.95.3. Here is what I have done: [stop samba] # ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-smbmount # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start Here is what I get: [root@Nemesis david]# tail

Hi list. I'm new to this list, so please bear with me. I've got samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 9 (SPARC). I've run all the tests. testparm runs fine. Other tests: # nmblookup -B stage __SAMBA__ querying __SAMBA__ on 192.168.18.25 192.168.18.25 __SAMBA__<00> # # nmblookup -B 192.168.1.9 '*' querying * on 192.168.1.9 192.168.1.9 *<00> # # nmblookup -d 2 '*'

This seems to be common enough problem. I've used a variety of methods (command line as well as utilities like LinNeighborhood) to mount XP shares on my RedHat 8.0 running Samba 2.2.7. I get consistent problems the other way around. Despite a couple of shares on my Linux partition, I am just unable to do get to it. Network Neighborhood shows my Linux/Samba server but no shares, nor can I

I have a pretty simply home LAN with a Linux box (Mandrake 9.1) and 2 XP boxes. The workgroup is named UNIVERSE and the machines are earth (Linux), voyager (XP) and starbase (XP). (smb.conf has security=user). Voyager can browse over to \\earth\share no problem. Recently I connected starbase to my LAN using a wireless router. When on starbase I cannot browse to \\earth\share. When I do so I

Hi, just joined the list and know very little about smb. I'm trying to do something that should be simple, but my current solution isn't working 100% All I need is a list of smb shares on the network. I'm doing this: /usr/bin/nmblookup -M -- - and then use this on each ip returned: /usr/bin/smbclient -g -p 139 -NL <ip addr> That works for most cases but it fails to find

I need a pointer to what Fine Manual I should go read to set up my netbios name resolution, because all my attempts to use netbios names are being resolved against dns ... I have one subnet (192.168.2/24), with several Fedora 11 machines and several Windows XP machines, and a couple SMB/CIFS NAS units which also share printers. No domain, it's all just a workgroup. The WinXP machines

Dear Samba gurus, I have a Fedora 8 linux server, running samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8. I am doing the simplest thing of all - exposing a public read-only share within MS Workgroup environment. My server has a fixed local IP address (192.168.1.200) and it's on the same subnet as the rest of the machines. The server and machines are connected to a 24 port CISCO switch. My problem is that I can

Hi All: I have some questions when writing a lib with libsmbclient-dev ,my target environment is on any linux system. 1 I want to static link libsmbclient.a instead of using libsmbclient.so, but I got a lot of error , am I able to use libsmbclient-dev using static link? 2 I found that ?smbtree? command is more stable in finding all those domains and servers than

Yesterday (12/17/16), I updated my Centos 7 machine with the latest updates. Prior to the updates both my Windows 10 and Centos 7 machines were able to access Samba shares hosted on a Fedora 25 server. After rebooting the Centos 7 machine, I get the dreaded "Unable to access location --- Failed to receive share list from server --- Connection refused" message when trying to mount the

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

Periodically, we?ve a user from our accounting department that is getting errors from Excel that the file she?s trying to open is opened by someone else (it isn?t) and prompts her to either open it as read-only, or to cancel the open operation. When this occurs, she hits cancel,

Hi, I am using samba 4.5.4 in my fedora machine. when I execute "smbtree" command it shows nothing with SMB2 protocol. If I change my client max protocol=NT1 in smb.conf, I can see all server present in my Network. looks like below bug. https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12431 Can it be fixed or someother options can be used for the same to work with protocol greater than NT1
