Re: [Samba] Is Samba made for trash?!? Newp.
By then, we discovered that if we disabled all oplocks, we got no more corruption. I posted here weeks ago problems regarding Excel 97 file corruption. I finally disabled oplocks then. But day passing, I had new problems with Word 97 :-/ (new posts here, mainly not answered but a tip on how to get clients at same time that servers... -NET command usage...): Many times a day, clients here when oppening a MS Word 97 document have it in READ ONLY mode, but seems no reason fort that!! I recently put oplocks *back* ON *but* with veto-ing excel files... I hope this change could solve de pb.. Waiting for changes, I read again docs about oplocks (Samba HOWTO Collection -R-O-X-, O'Reilly and SAM'S books too) Again and again but as Jeremy says thereafter, seems a problem *in* Word 97 ... Maybe I'll have to patch it (it's original version, just patched with Euro Font Fix, nothing more, maybe the source of the problems? -Idem with Excel) That Samba file server has been incredibly stable, serving terabytes of data to almost 100 clients. We've seen no file corruption since that day. You'll find many admins who agree with me - Samba rocks! Same opinion here. Samba works like a charm. We got 2.2.3a Debian woody stable release (damm when will they upgrade at debian?? ;-)). -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] The Big Plunge
1. Will a Samba PDC establish trust relationships with NT PDCs? Yes. But I a really reccomend you have all PDCs under Samba, since my feeling is they are much stable an easier to manage than real M$ ones :-) It's an advice, you can keep your PDC under NT if you want. 2. What anti-virus software exists for Windows clients which will automatically grab signature updates from an internal server? Dunno. All users here are under W2K with Norton Anti-virus auto-update mode on... This works nicely and const about $60 USD -max price, you can get cheaper with bundle licenses. I'm thinking about replacing this costly solution and potentially risky (I need to trust Norton...) with a centralized anti-virus software on samba shares... 3. Do you mostly use scripts to manage users, or a GUI? AFAIK, there are many GUI for you convenience (SWAT or SWAT module for webmin...). I personaly prefer scripts. 4. Is it LDAP/Samba integration possible? Sure. This works really well, look at samba-ldap-tools. My 2 cents. -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Found MS-Word 97 Samba bug : diagnostic found!
Hi all, I have a bug with Version 2.2.3a-12 for Debian GNU/Linux (custom 2.4.20 kernel with aacraid support (DELL PowerEdge 1650 with RAID mirror, etc)): Some users have, SOMETIMES, a READ ONLY set on files, where no one except them use this files. I'm in oplocks=false because of MS-Excel 97 issues, and, no need of fast performances at the moment (10 users). I put a /home/public with nobody.nogroup rights. Each users is in nogroup group too. force user=nobody on this share set force create mask=0664 on this share And, here what I have!!! : First file has NO PROBLEM, second one HAS READ ONLY ERROR, (but not if the file is REOPEN again): -rw-rw-r--1 nobody nogroup 37888 Feb 14 11:46 test_file_1.doc -rwxr--r--1 nobody nogroup 37376 Feb 14 2003 test_file_2.doc Look at date Feb 14 2003: erkk!! this is not a standard date!!!

Re: [Samba] How important are oplocks?
Super can be if you can add info or link about list of dangerous database engines for oplocks... Btw. Foxpro 2.6 = is ok. Foxpro 7.. = bad. Clipper= dangerous... exist this list for off oplocks? Thanks. But unfortunately, its not that simple.I doubt for example that one version of FoxPro will be good with oplocks, while another is bad. Yes. Making such list is not a good idea I think. Seems you all debate here of what the causes of the malfuntion could be (or are), and I think you didnt understand my point of view. Seems you arent considering all of the problem. (read above). When you see oplock problems, I guess you could say it is more client-OS and hardware dependant than it is on the software involve. So?... Most other applications do not have 2 or more users opening the same file at the same time on a routine basis. Sure. But you can't forbid people to drive because one of them maybe one day will drive drunk :-) I mean, in a production environment, It cant be half answers. It works or it doesnt. Thats my point of view. It is really interesting to know more about oplocks, why it works or not, why this client OS, this application will fail with oplocks on. And I really thank you all to share your knowledge on this! But, again, I cant bet on a technology. I'm not playing poker and cant do it with files where maybe all the business of my company is based on. Thats why I've disabled oplocks. I'm DBA maybe you'll understand why my principal fear is data loss. :-) Thanks all again. -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] How important are oplocks?
But, some times that can result in corrupted files back on the server if... ... no need to say more :-) IMHO, this is a real good reason to disable oplocks. I don't believe that in a production environment one could take such a risk. I personaly had Excel files corrupted. Had to take it back from backup sets. I really had to find good BOFH excuses for my users :-/ Editing the corrupted .xls file, I found that Samba loggued kind of samba log output in it instead putting it to /var/log/log.smbd :-) Search for my mail on bug 26128 in this list for example and/or more info.

Re: [Samba] Re: Access Samba Servers from the Internet?
I'll take the time to read more over about NetBIOS. Read it all. Its all clear now. So, I finally make it work perfectly. My PDC at 192.168.0.1 in 192.168.0.x network acts now also as a WINS server. The foreign 192.168.1.1 windows 2K uses 192.168.1.253 gateway to connect to the internet provider. This provider carry on MPLS VPN functionality. The foreign PC has 192.168.0.1 as 1ary DNS (Bind) and 212 as 2nd DNS (providers' firts DNS). It has ALSO 192.168.0.1 as WINS server. My provider had to unlock both 192.168.0.253 and 192.168.1.253 routers: they lock NetBIOS requests in default mode! Now the foreign PC is authenticated by the PDC, and ca work with its personal and common samba shares Weeepeee :o) I promise I'll give money to samba.org when I'll get rich one day :-) Finaly, I'm writing an article to put in my website to detail all to be done when creating such a VPN with Samba in the middle.

First of all, Thanks a lot John for take the time to make such precise and valuable answers. I am really impressed to read all your answers in this list, and I know all difficult and long it is, for answering myself about question on PostgreSQL in IRC and Mailing lists. PS: Master Browser does not mean that same as Domain Controller at all! [...] use WINS [...] Note: Again, none of this has anything to do with domain control (or what many prefer to call PDC). [...] PDC means Master Authentication Controller - NOT Master Browser. Please read my comments above very carefully. [...] WINS is your best friend Thanks for this answers. I promise to read again and again about NetBios in all the HOWTOS of Samba. I now know that my problems could be solved using my Samba PDC act as a WINS server too... As you may know, I use a VPN MPLS solution with my internet provider. He just told me today that routers are configured to block NetBIOS traffic by default. :-/ He's doing what needs to be done to allow NetBIOS traffic between two sites (192.168.0 where the samba box resides and distant 192.168.1..). I'm doing tests now with Samba PDC acting has a Wins server too. I'll put in this list my complete configuration and network schemes when all will work, in the case other persons would do the same. One needs to understand the NetBIOS protocols to solve a NetBIOS problem - few TCP/IP admins care to do that! I'll take the time to read more over about NetBIOS.

Re: [Samba] oplocks and samba 2.2.7
Hi all, I really know you'll tell me it is not an issue from Samba nor a matter of topic in this list. But. I have problems with oplocks, surely because of my version: Version 2.2.3a-12 for Debian I noticed it all in bug 26128 and posted here precisions, few days ago. Version 2.2.3a-12!!!??? YES, this is the *stable* version from Debian. What would I do? Install newer version (2.2.7,afaik), then corrupt my system? Or wait for Samba team to put 2.2.7 in the stable? For example, in current proposed-updates, samba version proposed is 2.2.3a-12!! I think I'll have to wait a year before 2.2.7 becomes stable, then you'll be supporting only version 2.4 ? :-) I really know again it is *not* the problem of Samba team. But, I think when I read docs always install newest version before asking to support, you put to rubbish all users who havent yet connexion to internet, or ones who just buy brand new RH, Mandrake, Suse, whatever, box, with surely not the latest Samba version in :-( What are my solutions then? Build my own deb package from your cvs? Thats what I'm gonna do finally, corrupting a bit my stable production debian server :-/ I'd really like you give your point of view on this.

Re: [Samba] Re: Access Samba Servers from the Internet?
nmbd can be master browser only on network that is on your network machine eth. Thanks for your answer. If I understand you well, MASTER is only PDC for 192.168.0 because of eth0 configuration. Here is it: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.0.253 Given this, the solution is to change the netmask? Then, MASTER would listen in network 192.168. instead of 192.168.0 only. Am I right? How to achieve my PDC to become unique PDC in my LAN composed of 192.168.0, 192.168.1 and may be tommorrow 192.168.2 .. ??

Re: [Samba] Word 97 and samba.
Any other options
that might help?
I had a problem with auto-timeout from client side :-)
But its a windows problem only ;-)
Type NET CONFIG SERVER and look at SESSION TIMEOUT..
By default you have 15 minutes
Then, if a user is typing from more than 15 minutes, without disk
access, in a document wich is on a server, the server disconnect the
client, and crap Word 97 crashes or sends connex problem messages to the
client!
Type NET CONFING SERVER ? to see how to change the value. Max Value in
windows 2000 env is about millions :) Watch for support.microsoft.com,
file Q138365.
Put 65535 minutes instead of 15, will be enough :-)
Z:\net config server ?
La syntaxe de cette commande est :
NET CONFIG SERVER [/AUTODISCONNECT:minutes]
[/SRVCOMMENT:texte]
[/HIDDEN:{YES | NO}]
Hope this helps.

Re: [Samba] Re: Access Samba Servers from the Internet?
secure to set-up a VPN connection from your client to your host and then login that way. Of course, it is possible to access your SMB share through I have exactly the same need. I have a co-worker that can come to our site because of physical problems, he cant just come at work like everyone. The thing is to achieve a normal Windows 2000 connection to our domain. Here is how I solved it (not yet accomplished, but in good way to): I subscribed a VPN MPLS solution at my internet provider. I think it is the best way to do actual VPN, better than frame relay or IpSec, because it is transparent to users. Here an ascii-art datagram of the solution: ___ Internet... / | FIREWALL | /[ VPN MPLS ]--\ || router router 192.168.1.253 192.168.0.253 || || || Far away PC local network with 192.168.1.1W2K workstations, Linux PCs /| | \ Samba as PDC other machines in with Bind DNS 192.168.0. 192.168.0.1 subnet have to be different for the VPN MPLS to work! That's why the main network it's in 192.168.0. and the away network is in 192.168.1 On 192.168.1.1 PC he can ping 192.168.0.x machines! The same in 192.168.0.x machines, we can ping him and also it's router. But, we can't achieve him to be connected to our network :-(( That's the current big problem! He has 192.168.0.1 as 1ary DNS and has 2nd DNS he has the provider's 1st DNS address. On his machine he can do: nslookup machinetest =works nslookup machinetest.homelocalnetwork.com =works ping 192.168.0.100 (machinetest'IP) =works ping machinetest = doesn't work!! I am sure of the DNS (Bind) configuration but seems Samba is rejecting him?? What's wrong??? I read an article about DNS in Windows 2000. Seems the DNS *must* work with DHCP, dynamically in order to distant machines to connect. Is that true? I mean, then, my local machines would use NetBios only to connect to samba PDC? Then, if this is true, this means NetBios connections cant' go thru the VPN? Why? Is this because of different subnets? As you see, VPN MPLS is a good solution, but I really hope someone doing VPN MPLS with Samba as PDC in W3K environnement could tell me how he achieved this to work Finally, sorry for crap english :) Thanks a lots. -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
