[Samba] windows xp + samba
Hi My company network is built on Fedora Core 2 machines running samba (3.0.3-5) and windows 2000/xp clients. The domain controller is samba 3.0.3. When I'm logging to samba from windows xp clients and after pressed to mapped disk(share) they print out the error: An error occurred while reconnecting to [Drive Letter]: to \\server\share. Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored. On windows 2000 clients I haven't problem. Can anyone please explain why this happens and how I can prevent it? please reply for my email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] greetings Mariusz ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Windows XP Samba
I have a Samba server that I want to allow anonymous access to for the purpose of printing. It's stand alone and not joined to my Windows domain. When I try to connect to it through a Windows 2000 PC, it pops up a username password box, but when I click OK I'm in. Not a problem. However, when I try to browse the printer list from a Windows XP box, I get the username password box, but the username is grayed out. The grayed out username has CUPS\MyGuest (name of cups server\renamed windows guest account). Needless to say, when I click OK, the prompt comes back and I can't get in. The strange thing, If I put in the path to one of the shared printers, I can connect. Here is my smb.conf: [global] netbios name = CUPS workgroup = MYWORKGROUP security = share encrypt passwords = yes guest only = yes load printers = yes guest account = nobody hosts deny = all hostname lookups = yes hosts allow = 127. .domain.domain .otherdomain.domain local master = no printcap name = cups printing = cups load printers = yes restrict anonymous = no map to guest = bad user [printers] path = /tmp printable = yes guest ok = yes public = yes writable = no -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Windows XP - samba 1.1.9 slow file transfer problem
I've ran another Ethereal capture using Samba 3.0.2 and a Windows XP client and the problem isn't present, so I guess we'll just have to upgrade.

[Samba] Windows XP - samba 1.1.9 slow file transfer problem
I'm experiencing a problem with slow file transfer from a Solaris 2.6 Samba 1.1.9 server to Windows XP clients. This problem does not occur for Windows 2000 clients. In attempting to troubleshoot the problem, I've run Ethereal on both clients and noticed a marked difference in the logs of a transfer of the same file from the server. The Windows 2000 logs shows AndX SMB requests and responses with various sizes ranging around 1000-8000 bytes. The number of packets in the TCP conversation to transfer the file is 42 packets. With Windows XP the logs show AndX SMB requests and responses around 2 to 4 bytes long. The number of packets required for that transfer is 571. The time to transfer is 3 seconds on Windows 2000 and 30 seconds on Windows XP. A notable factor is that this SMB file transfer is occuring over a WAN connection, so the long ACK delay may be the problem factor, but I don't see how it would become a problem on Windows XP clients, but not on Windows 2000 clients. I've already tried changing the socket options parameter in the global section of the smb.conf file on the server. It previously was set to TCP_NODELAY, and I tried a setting of IPTOS_THROUGHPUT SO_SNDBUFF=8192 SO_RCVBUFF=8192. Any suggestions? Would upgrading to Samba 3.x resolve this issue? Thanks for any input. Greg Adams -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Windows XP -- Samba = A-ok! Samba -- Windows XP = Excruciatingly SLOW
Hi All, I've installed and configured Samba 2.2.8a on my FreeBSD 4.8 RELEASE box and ALMOST everything seems to be working fine. My only real issue is that copying files from my BSD box to my WinXP box on my switched 100TX network averages about 1 MB per minute in transfer speeds. I've done some comparisons by copying similar sized files from other Windows machines to my workstation and by copying the original slow files from the BSD box via WinSCP3. Either scenario gives me transfer speeds of about 500K per second. So at this point it seems to be how Samba and XP are interacting and not a network or hardware issue. I've shut off the WebClient as recommended here: http://samba.netfirms.com/faq.htm and checked the Samba logs only to find them empty. I've found a number of other folks via Google who've had the same issue, but have yet to find a resolution. Below is my smbd.conf file. It's a simple and wide open setup for testing as I go through Using Samba 2nd Ed.. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated... serioussam# cat smb.conf # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.0.2 (192.168.0.2) # Date: 2003/10/17 18:50:48 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = LOTHM netbios name = SAMBA server string = Samba encrypt passwords = Yes log file = /var/log/samba-log.%m wins support = Yes [test] comment = for testing only please path = /usr/local/samba/tmp read only = No guest ok = Yes Thanks, Mark Andrich -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Are you sure you get the password change message when logging in to the domain? As ra as I know Samba doesn't support password change dialogs at least in 2.x versions so it's got to be some kind of local password ?!? Strange ... 2. Have a look at mandatory profiles.

Re: [Samba] Windows XP + Samba
Hi, domain? As ra as I know Samba doesn't support password change dialogs at least in 2.x versions Just fyi, it works (regarding domain pasword changes, not local) as my users use it often. When Samba 3 comes out, then there will trully be no need for an actuall Windows PDC. This will make workstation roll outs easier as many cool tools that I've seen rely on AD. Bri- __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: [Samba] Windows XP + Samba
Bri, domain? As far as I know Samba doesn't support password change dialogs at least in 2.x versions Just fyi, it works (regarding domain pasword changes, not local) as my users use it often. Ooops, my message was written to be misunderstood quite easily. The fact that puzzled me, was the password change dialog on each and every login. There should be a passchange dialog if a) his password expires or b) he chooses to change the password himself after a certain amount of time or c) some sort of local service requires a pass change. So if meaningful domain password expiry notification and the (optional?) subsequent password change request triggered by Samba is not possible with Samba 2.x (yet) there's only options b) and c) left, right?

[Samba] Windows XP, samba 2.2.7a; delayed write failure
Hello all, Summary - - - - - - - - - - I am looking for suggestions, solutions, and assistance with a problem involving Windows XP in a samba-2.2.7a workgroup with domain logons and no PDC. Other WinXP clients don't seem to be affected, so I'm endeavoring to isolate what the problem could be. Detailed Notes - - - - - - - - - - - I have a windows XP client. It was once a Windows XP client with service pack 1, and was reinstalled as Windows XP only. - Because of the increased compatibility with windows XP clients, I choose to upgrade from 2.2.1(?) to the current release, and now have a samba-2.2.7a server. - The service has been operating flawlessly with many other Windows clients including other Windows XP clients for months/years. - The windows XP client will initially appear to operate normally as an SMB client for writing new files, but will repeatedly and stubbornly refuse to properly write temporary files upon file save e.g., Word and Excel. - I (with my site contact) have tested the Windows XP clients (both vanilla installation and service pack 1 installation) with the WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg registry hack. No change in behaviour with/without this hack, but I guess that this has to do with domain logon behaviour. - some relevant global options: domain master = yes preferred master = yes domain logons = yes wins support = yes - The windows XP client has no problem browsing files on the samba shares with Windows Explorer. - The various error messages returned by the windows XP client during the entire testing procedure are: Client redirector does not calculate the SMB signature properly. (before registry tweak, I think?) The save failed due to out of memory or diskspace. (only from WinXP without service pack) Delayed write failed. (in all testing cases) Microsoft Solution - - - - - - - - - - I have found the following resources that purport to address this issue: M$ knowledge base article discussing the Delayed Write Failed error, but restricted to Windows 2000 (Server,Advanced Server,Professional) installations. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;321733 This MSKB suggests changing the following parameter on the server: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters enablesecuritysignature=0 However, I find no such parameter or discussion of such parameter (naturally) in the samba docs, because of course, I'm running Samba, not a WinNT server. Questions: - - - - - - - - - - Has anybody experienced this problem elsewhere? Can anybody point out a potential solution? Did I miss a crucial setting or documentation point? And, as always, thanks to the Samba team for this reliable software, and thanks in advance for any responses or suggestions. -Martin -- Martin A.
