It works with 3.5.9! thanx! I downloaded the 3.5.9 tarball, compiled and installed as per instructions in the included howto html docs. But it installed in /usr/local/samba/, whereas the default CentOS 6 install (3.5.4) is still in /usr/sbin/smbd.
So, it works, but I have to start it manually, so that it's running the right version and knows where to find the config file. Is there any way I can get it to install in the RHEL/CentOS set of paths? thx -chalire On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 8:02 PM, Jeremy Allison <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 04:37:58PM -0500, Charles Redditt wrote: > > Issue: unix fifo (named pipe) does not appear in share, attempts to read > > the pipe result in "Access Denied" > > > > >From an XP laptop, I can open and access my samba share normally.
