[Samba] short ip range host allow in smb.conf

2005-08-11 Thread Ken Walker
how would i put the following into smb.conf in a shorthand format

host allow all ip's from 192.168.0.151 to 192.168.0.185 but non outside this
range

without putting them all in separately, is it

host allow 192.168.0.151 - 192.168.0.185 

?


Many thanks

Re: [Samba] Smbpasswd problem fine before but now ?

2004-09-15 Thread Ken Walker
I'm still trying to solve my problem below.

I have found that in my smb.conf file, all information relating to
ldap is either # or ; out, but when i run testparm it shows settings
for ldap which is pointed to locally.
I completely deleted all commented reverences to ldap, restarted
samba, run testparm but it insists that ldap is being called locally.

I even used a previous smb.conf from before i upgraded to 2.2.8a,
which has no referance to ldap, but it still shows up in testparm as
ldap= local.

My other machine that was also upgraded to 2.2.8a has no reference to
ldap or indications it is being called in testparm

I'm completely confused.

Can anybody help

Ken

[Samba] How do I go from 2.2.3 to 2.2.8a for LM8.2

2003-06-03 Thread Ken Walker
I have got installed at the moment the default samba 2.2.3 that comes with
LM8.2 and want to upgrade to 2.2.8a, I have just downloaded the following
files

samba-doc-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm
samba-common-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm
samba-client-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm
samba-server-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm
samba-swat-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm

There all destined for the main file server, I understand I have to install
all of the above packages

When I try to install any of them I keep being told about 2.2.3 having
dependencies for 2.2.3. Do I have to uninstall the previous version first ?

Or do I do a force.

Also is there any particular order they have to be installed.

There's a first time for everybody, and this is mine :o)   [or should it be
:o( ]

I also tried urpmi samba-common-2.2.8a-2mdk.i585.rpm but get an error saying


error registering local packages

If I do a urpmi --update --auto-select samba

It says it has to update the following dependences, over 2 cli screens worth
and stating 311Mb, those listed include apache, cups, samba 2.2.7a, kde
packages, KDEGames,e2fsprogs,telnet-client,ssh and loads more, do I really
need to update all those ?

It all looks quite daunting when I'm not sure !

umount usr/Cad12: device busy.

If i try and cd to that folder, the console freezes and only kill

I tried as su and on another Virtual console as root, but it will not
umount. I've shut down the win98 machine and powered it up again. But it
still will not umount.

Also how do i kill a virtual console which is not responding.

 This sounds like our bug.  Do you have a patch?  If not, it will
 be al ittle while before I get caught up and can look into it.

I took a quick look at this. To use an account with no password
try

smbclient -L host -Uname%

instead. If the password is not supplied then smbclient will always
try again with an anonymous request.

[Samba] I can't log into a NT( i could ); but can from another samba

2002-12-09 Thread Ken Walker
Last week i could log into a win2000 machine from a samba 2.2.2.2 machine.
But now I can't.

Using the same password and user name, which will not work now, i could
smbmount to a shared folder on a Win2K machine.

I installed a printer on the machine i'm trying to log in from.

Now, i just get access denied. If i look at the logs on the win2k, it says
wrong or misspelled password. I can log into that same win2k machine from
another samba using the same username and password, with no problems.

I can even smbmount from the problem machine to another samba machine, using
the same username and password. ( both samba machines have passwords=user,
both running LM )

now if i set up an account on another win2k machine, using the same username
and password, i can't log in from the problem samba machine, but can from
the other samba machine.

It seems to be sending a corrupt password.

Can anybody suggest anything.

[Samba] Cups..works on LM8.1, LM8.2 but not LM9

2002-12-05 Thread Ken Walker
I've been trying every combination possible to get CUPS on LM9 to print to a
shared printer on a windows machine.

On setting up the printer in printerdrake, On LM8.1 it worked first time. On
LM8.2 with the same settings it worked first time. On LM9 it just sits there
and laughs at me, with the same settings as LM8.1 and LM8.2.

And how do i remove a default printer it thinks it has but isn't there ?

The printer on the remote windoz machine i'm trying to print to is a HP1100.
The default printer it thinks it has is also a HP1100, but has it down as
its own ip address, and not the ip address of the machine that actually has
the printer.

Last night i tried setting up an Epson 1160, also connected to a windows
machine.

LM8.1 set it up, and out pops a test page.

LM8.2 set it up, and out pops a test page.

On LM9nothing, again just sits there, says the printer is
printing, says its ready. but prints bugger all.


LM9.. Aaarh nothing.

Anybody had this problem

many thanks


ps is it possible to set up a LM box so that students print from a
windows machine  to the samba box, and then the samba box sends it to
another windows machine to actually be printed. I need only selected
students to use the printer ( otherwise the little buggers sneak in and
empty all the cartridges, then sneak out again )

Many thanks

Using Tar to copy 8Gig comprising 5 folders and umpteen files.

Fromto  File system  Max file size allowed  Max file size system

4Gig
LM8.1  Win98fat32   2Gig

Also tried using cp, as above, with a 4Gig file and it still bombed out at
2Gig.

So it looks like if you want to copy a file out of or into a samba server
that's bigger than 2G. forget it. It doesn't even respect the target
operating systems max file size.


Any answers from the Samba Team ?

or smbmount to the machine with the files on and again keeping the original

[Samba] Warning when updating Samba via mandrake update

2002-11-05 Thread Ken Walker
I've just done a update of Samba from 2.2.4 to 2.2.6.

After installing everything it says some files were modified, ie smb.conf,
and gives you the option to view the changes. 

It removed all my shared folders, removed settings from 'global' and changed
lines for cups and other bits and pieces. Some changes are highlighted in
green and the ones it removes are in red with '-' stuck in front of them.

I'm not sure if anything happens if you just click on ok after the update
and don't see what's been changed. 

So be warned, if everything stops working after an update then check your
smb.conf file

Been 
there, done that, checked all ports are set correct

swat 
utp 901

ect

and 
checked

ect


and 
checked

etc.


and 
checked

that's 
why I gave up.

but 
now ive put mandrake 8.2 on another machine ( my swat not working was on a 
8.1,but samba was) as a default install and samba wont even run, complains about 
not being able to open database files.Ar

at 
least it will keep me busy for a couple of years, cant say that about a console 
game :o)

but 
what's even sadder, you do get moving images on a games 
console.

if 
only kids of today new the pleasure of that flashing command prompt curser., not 
to mention the [ ok ] in greenYes
