[Samba] What controls the Read AndX Request byte size?

2006-09-29 Thread Steven Cardinal
In trying to track down some performance issues, I'm finding with Ethereal that, when I launch an application from my Windows server, the SMB Read AndX Request packets have Min Count, Max Count Low, and Remaining all at 512 bytes. When launching the same application on the same client from a

[Samba] Intermittent ACCESS DENIED

2006-09-27 Thread Steven Cardinal
In a follow-up to a previous post a couple weeks back, we've implemented a Samba 3.0.20 (Suse packages on 10.0 - recompiled to include idmap_rid) server to replace the Windows 2000 file server in our Win2003 Active Directory. For the most part things have been going well, but occassionally people

[Samba] Losing access to drive within XP

2006-08-02 Thread Steven Cardinal
This sounds more like an Windows problem, but it is an interaction with Samba and I'm hoping someone has an idea of where to start looking. 3 times in the past week I've had a user (different user each time) come to me saying their P: drive is inaccessible, access denied. The P: drive is set in

We have a third party application that tracks its own licensing through a special file it creates. We just recently moved this application (along with all of our other user data) from a Win2K server to a Samba 3.0.20 server. This application no longer works correctly. What the application is

[Samba] smbstatus output question

2006-06-28 Thread Steven Cardinal
Can anyone tell me how smbstatus does its host name resolution? When I run smbstatus with no switches (3.0.20 on Suse 10.0), the output of hosts mostly shows IP addresses, but a couple hosts will show up by name. I've confirmed that all of the hosts are resolving in DNS through both forward and

For lack of a better solution, I deleted my ntprinters.tdb, restarted smbd to build a new one, and relinked my printers to drivers. It would be nice to know where Samba is caching that information, though. We use the Comment and Location fields to help our end users locate the printer and to

Am running Samba 3.0.20 on SuSE 10.0 and cups as my printer provider. I've used the cups gui to create a number of printers. They appeared correctly in my Printers and Faxes folder in Explorer and I uploaded my print drivers successfully. Now, a few days later, I'm looking at my printers and I

[Samba] uid/gid mapping when using AD backend

I would like to have multiple Samba Domain Member servers, acting as file servers, in my Active Directory domain. I've used the Samba-3 By Example and the Official Samba-3 reference to get my first server running, authenticating users to my AD domain, and mapping uid/gid using idmaps through
