[Samba] Strange performance issue with Dreamweaver and Samba
Hi folks. When using Dreamweaver MX 2004 on a Win2k machine talking to a Samba machine I have a strange problem. For every key stroke or mouse event within the Dreamweaver window I see a flurry of SMB packets Mostly SMB Packet: SMBsesssetupX (REQUEST) SMB Packet: SMBsesssetupX (REPLY) Flags=0x0 Length=71 or Length=175 This obviously causes significant performance issues. anythoughts would be greatly appreciated -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Filesystem Locking or lack of locking issues
Good Day, I'm running into some issues and wondered if there are a few of you that can assist. Or please let me know if this is better off in a Java forum (but figure the Samba crew knows a bit more about filesystems then the java team :) Information prior to question/concern: Samba Ver: Version 3.0.6 OS: Linux sc8-a7-lri4.rsc01.net 2.4.20-30.9smp #1 SMP Wed Feb 4 20:36:46 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Java: j2sdk1.4.2_03 Using smbmount only. Accessing a Network Appliance share (NAS) from multiple Linux boxes. Running into issues with file locking. We are doing this as we migrate away from MS and to Linux, however we need Case insenseitivity in the short term (will end up going longer then I like), but thus the need for some type of SMB/CIFS Filesystem. We are using "java.nio.channels.FileLock" We are seeing locks not honored and also lots of java.io.IOException: Resource deadlock avoided. We see this in both NFS and SMB FS mounts. Locking is just not working correctly Oct 2 16:29:20 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_readpage_sync: launch/AllServers.xml open failed, error=-2 Oct 2 16:29:55 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:55 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:55 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_readpage_sync: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, error=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_readpage_sync: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, error=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_open: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, result=-2 Oct 2 16:29:56 sc8-a7-lri4 kernel: smb_readpage_sync: Clickthrough-4.status/AllServers.xml open failed, error=-2 Everything works fine on the local FS, it's just failing over a NFS and SMB share. But again the SMB/CIFS share is critical and I'll be forced to continue down the windows path, if we can't figure this out.

[Samba] Printing seems to be entirely broken
Here's the problem: clients that already have a Windows machine with the printer installed (through Samba, several months ago) can print just fine. However, any client trying to add, view, or do anything with a printer *now* always receive a message stating "Access is denied." When I double-click on the printer to add: "Could not connect to the printer. Access is denied." If I right-click on a printer under "Printers", and click on properties: "Printer properties cannot be displayed. Access is denied." If I try to view the print queue, I see in the title bar: "Access is denied, unable to connect." No matter what I do, I seem unable to do anything with printers, regardless of privileges. Syslog entries, even at max logging, show nothing out of the ordinary. This leads me to belive that it's file permissions, but those have all been checked. Here are the relevant sections of smb.conf. /etc/samba/smb.conf: workgroup = ikobo domain master = true local master = true domain logons = true preferred master = true os level = 65 load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups max print jobs = 100 lpq cache time = 20 use client driver = yes printer admin = @wheel show add printer wizard = yes [printers] comment = All Printers printable = yes path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no writable = no [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/local/samba/drivers browseable = yes read only = yes write list = @wheel Here are permissions on a few relevant directories: hank:/var/cache/samba/printing# ls -la drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 2 15:32 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 2 15:32 .. -rw--- 1 root root 24576 Oct 2 15:31 LaserJet_1300n.tdb -rw--- 1 root root 24576 Oct 2 15:31 ML-1710.tdb -rw--- 1 root root 24576 Oct 2 15:31 printers.tdb hank:/var/spool/samba# ls -la drwxrwsr-x 2 root users 4096 Oct 2 15:12 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 17 10:14 .. hank:/var/local/samba/drivers# ls -la drwxrwxr-x 4 root wheel 4096 May 19 09:39 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Oct 2 15:11 .. drwxrwxr-x 3 root wheel 4096 Oct 2 15:11 W32X86 drwxrwxr-x 3 root wheel 4096 May 19 09:39 WIN40 Does anyone know why I am having these problems?

Re: [Samba] Domain Trust Logins
I've made a network like you; it's working very well. samba trusts a w2k domain. did it viceversa? did you run winbindd? it sounds like not...

RE: [Samba] Samba 3.0, Windows 2k/XP and usrmgr.exe
Regarding this problem, I have solved the mystery by adding: admin users = root @domadm in the [global] section of my smb.conf. Domain admins can now happily add, modify and delete users through user manager. As usual with these things - a 10 second solution to a problem that has bemused me for hours!!

[Samba] mounting smb shares
Hi all, new to samba yadda yadda.. I think I am going in the wrong direction here. I am setting up an smb server to store photos. These are publicly available in read only except to the group 'staff'. Yes, I read the How To. ;) So in my smb.conf I have this... [photodir] comment = Public Photos path = /home/photo public = yes read only = yes write list = @staff I have added the user 'photo' to the system with the home dir of /home/photo I have used smbpasswd -a photo and given the user a smb password. I can list using smbclient -L 192.168.0.6 and I get this... I can mount the drive from a client like this.. Anonymous login successful Sharename Type Comment - --- photodir Disk Public Photos IPC$ IPC IPC Service (PHOTO SERVER) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (PHOTO SERVER) Anonymous login successful Server Comment ---- SAMBAPHOTO SERVER WorkgroupMaster ---- WILDCHERRY SAMBA When I do this I am prompted for a password, and simply hit enter and it displays. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I can then mount the share using mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.6/photo /home/samba/ -o username=photo and ls shows all the files on the remote smb server i the photo directory. But, the files therein are not read only, I can delete files from there simply by doing rm filename.txt This is bad. I need this to be read only. Where did I go wrong?

[Samba] Full Name from User Manager to /etc/passwd
Hi all, I use samba 3 with WindowsXP clients. I'd like to add a new user with User Manager (usrmgr.exe) from the client, but how can I solve, that this procedure takes the Full Name (what I set in usrmgr) to the linux /etc/passwd file. (the linux can store a full name in /etc/passwd, but how can the usrmgr take it to /etc/passwd automatically) I tried to search, what should I write to the "add user script" line to do this, but I couldn't find.

[Samba] Re: Multiple Controllers to auth against
I ran into this problem as well, and found that if I joined each server in turn (using "net ads join -S windc1", "net ads join windc2", etc.), the failover would happen. Otherwise I got errors from wbinfo -t, and nothing else worked. It took me a week or two to figure this one out, since I assumed "joining the domain" meant I was joining the domain, rather than joining to a specific domain controller. However, even with failover working, I've found it too slow to use. It seems like every few responses have to failover, which takes 20-25 seconds each. I've bumped the "winbind cache time" to ten minutes, so wbinfo results are cached aggressively, but ntlm_auth does not appear to respect or support this variable. I though ntlm_auth queried winbindd, and so would answer with whatever winbind provided, but that doesn't seem to happen here. I've filed bug number 1866 about this slow failover and no caching issue: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1866 "Jeff Heckart" wrote: I am currently using samba along side of squid to do ntlm authentication. I have a primary, and secondary NT4.0 controllers, and have listed in smb.conf as such: password server: server1 server2 I expected that when server1 went down, server2 would be queried next. This was not the case for me. I actually had server1 go down, and samba continued to attempt and fail against server1. How should this be setup? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
