Re: [Samba] delete readonly

But now other users can delete them too, not only the owner, and also when it was set to no it somewhat limited the possibility of a user to accidentally delete a directory with lots of files. Is there a way to allow a user to change the permissions of his own files? Then I could leave delete readonly to no, and if he wants to delete them, he takes out the read only attribute and deletes it. Have you tried setting the sticky bit on the directory? --Dane -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Files missing when using windows XP and samba
Make sure that there are read permissions on the missing files and read and execute permissions on any missing directories. For files: chmod 644. For directories: chmod 755. --Dane On Tuesday 05 July 2005 09:03 pm, Paul Dunphy wrote: Hi Stuart, By any chance, are the missing files very large? I am having a similar problem with Samba 3.0.14a on Irix 6.5.17, and in my case it appears to be related to file size. Large files (1.2 GB) and the folders containing them do not show up on the Windows client. This problem did not exist in my previous version of Samba, 3.0.0 (which I've been forced to revert to). Cheers, Paul Stuart Bailey wrote: Hi, I am using Fedora Core 3 as a server for both Unix (Solaris and HPUX) and Windows Xp clients. The Unix clients view the files through an NFS v3 share, and windows client use samba (3.0.8-0.pre1.3). When looking at a directory from the server, or from a Unix client, I can see 132 files. However, from the Windows client, I can only see 65 files. There appear to be nothing special about the files names (we have already removed spaces etc from the filenames incase they caused a problem). If I mount the samba shares via smbfs on the server (to a new mount point), I can see all 132 files, so I suspect the problem is not samba. I have checked the file permissions, and although they have various owners, all permissions are 666. There seems to be no consistency between files that are missing. I have tried a number of different Xp machines and they all exhibit the same symptoms. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Many thanks Stuart. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] simple cross-network browsing setup is failing
Can you post a copy of your smb.conf for your WINS servers and clients?

For my multi-site VPN setup I now set: socket options = SO_BROADCAST SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_THROUGHPUT TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 From what I can tell the SO_BROADCAST flag allows samba to send to sub-domain broadcast addresses(i.e. 192.168.1.255).

[Samba] smbd hangs when trying to start smb
Hello. I've been using Samba for several months now at my office and have recently run into a rather perplexing problem. Whenever I type smb start (as root) it will hang indefinitely with the words, Starting SMB Services: on the screen, and will not start the processes necessary to enable file sharing. I don't think I've made any changes to the system since Samba was last working properly. Also, I've tried starting the processes manually by typing, smbd start and nmbd start. nmbd starts without any problems, but smbd still hangs indefinitely. I REALLY like Samba a lot, and I also need to be able to share files from my Linux box with other Windows computers on the network. Do you know why it's doing this? Any idea of what I can do to correct it? I've searched the web for this problem but have come up blank. Thanks very much for your help. --Dane -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
