[Samba] Connection not possible

2005-06-06 Thread Madhusudan, R
Hi,

I have SAMBA 3.0.10 running on my Mandrake 10.1. Everything seemed to
work fine until this afternoon, but I'm no longer able to connect to the
SAMBA server from my PC. The error I get when I tried connecting using
the name and/or the IP address is: 

The specified network name is no longer available.

I checked for the presence of SMBD and NMBD daemons and found them to be
up and running. All that happened before things stopped working was a
reboot of the Linux system.

Any suggestions to diagnose the problem would be appreciated. The WINS
server is available on the N/W.

Thanks,
Madhu

[Samba] Problems while installing...

2005-03-23 Thread Madhusudan, R
Hi,

I have two Linux systems, one running FC2 and the other Mandrake 10.1.
When I tried installing Samba 3.0.11 on both the systems, I get the
following error:

# rpm -i samba-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm samba-common-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm
warning: samba-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID

Any suggestions on how to fix these and go ahead with the installation?

[Samba] Installing/De-installing procedure...

2005-03-22 Thread Madhusudan, R
Hi,
 
I have a system running FC2 with SAMBA-3.0.10-1.fc2 installed on it. I
tried de-installing it, but failed as follows:

Can anyone suggest how I could go about de-installing the kit? 
 
Also, how would I install and use SAMBA on a Linux system if all I had
were the images I built using the sources? What are the steps I 
need to follow here?

Hello,

About your second question, i just don't understand what you mean
Suppose that I built the samba executables using the sources. If I want 
to use these images to install and run samba, unlike the usual way of 
using RPMs, how do I do it?

Thanks,

Hi,

Following the instructions given in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection, I installed 
Samba 3.0.10 using the images generated on my system.

Whenever I try to start either nmbd or smbd by hand, they seem to exiting 
immediately. I searched for information on diagnosing this problem,
but didn't find any. 

Am I missing something here? Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

Well,
The best way woul be to recompile the sources for eache machine, unless you
ABSOLUTELY sure they are equal at software level.
So, you'll just have to uncompress the source
run the configure script with the options you wish then make, make install.
Check this.

Hi,

Given below is the output of the command execution:

$ /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -b | grep smb.conf
   CONFIGFILE: /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf

What does this imply? 

I'm coming to realize that installing samba via RPMs does a lot more
than installing samba using images via make install does. Or that I
need spend some extra time making the system aware of this unconventional
installation...

What are the additional steps I need to follow to get samba up and running
with the way I've installed it?

Thanks,

On your system execute:

then check that your smb.conf file is in that location.

[Samba] Trust between SAMBA and NT server

2004-11-03 Thread Madhusudan, R
Hello,

I'm having problems getting the SAMBA domain to trust an NT domain. The following is 
how I went about the exercise:

1. On the NT domain, I added the SAMBA domain A/C in the TRUSTING DOMAINS list, 
providing a certain password.
2. On the SAMBA domain, I executed the following command feeding the same password 
given in step 1, but without 
success:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# net rpc trustdom establish asnt01
Password:
Could not connect to server ASNT1
[2004/11/03 17:43:37, 0] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_mem_get(530)
  prs_mem_get: reading data of size 4 would overrun buffer.
[2004/11/03 17:43:37, 0] utils/net_rpc.c:rpc_trustdom_establish(3035)
  WksQueryInfo call failed.

Any ideas as to what the problem is? I was able to get the NT domain to trust the 
SAMBA domain though.

The inter-domain trust A/C, namely ASNT01$, was created when I tried successfully in 
getting the NT domain to trust the SAMBA domain. 

The NT domain is called ASNT01, and COBRA.DOM is SAMBA domain.

My intention is to make NT domain the trusted domain, and SAMBA the trusting domain.

I was able to pull off the vice-versa exercise though, that enabled users in the SAMBA

Sorry i dont understand you, do you want samba to be the trusted domain

what i told you before was to make samba the trusted domain, so users in

username and passwords again!

[Samba] Avoiding user home directories

2004-10-27 Thread Madhusudan, R
Hi,

 When I connect to SAMBA using a particular username, apart from the shares I created,
it appears that the home directory of the user logging in also shows up in the share 
list.
I searched for a parameter using which I could control this, but was unsuccessful.

The [HOMES] section of my SMB.CONF looks like:

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
create mask = 0750
browseable = No

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Madhu

Hello,

What do you want? no home-directory share?
Yup, that's precisely what I want :)

Simply remove the complete [homes] section
and these shares will disappear.
It worked, thanks!

Errm,
