RE: [Samba] Help with samba on Solaris 9
If you just applied a Sun patch cluster, it likely overwrote your /etc/pam.conf file.

Grant Schoep wrote: Ah.. shoot. Oh, that's _exactly_ the word I used when John Terpstra told me, too. :7) I have 3 different Sun compiler versions available so I tried those. I guess I'll go download the gcc compiler and get that built and use that instead... I think I grabbed a tarball for 3.3 from a mirror of sunfreeware.com. Like I said, solved my issues. Good luck! -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Printing OK on 98, Access denied on XP Pro
I have a very simple setup on a Solaris 8 server, running Samba 3.0.1 (see smb.conf below). A desktop PC running Windows 98 (SE?) happily connects to and prints to my one shared printer, but an XP Pro laptop takes a lng time to install the local driver and then just says Access denied, unable to connect. I already told it to use a client driver and disabled spoolss. Here's my smb.cnf file: --Start of smb.conf [global] workgroup = jwu netbiosname = pvd-dat-60 security = share dns proxy = No wins server = IP redacted # printcap name = /etc/printcap printing = sysv disable spoolss = Yes #[temp] # path = /tmp # read only = Yes # guest ok = Yes [pvdpar03lz02] comment = HP 9000hns path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = Yes guest ok = Yes # read only = Yes use client driver = yes ---End of smb.conf--- (The temp section was to test whether things worked before. I will actually delte those lines when I solve this problem. I commented out the printcap line because I don't want to share all the printers: I have a lot configured on this Sun but use a Windows print server to publishing them to desktop PC users.) Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for everyone's time. -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] .Xauthority SMB
Shannon Johnson wrote: Any ideas? I don't know nearly as much about the X system as I probably should (but I'm learning). The ORA book Linux Security Cookbook talks about running X apps as root over an SSH link. They suggest using a brief shell script to make sure that the .Xauthority file has the correct ownership. Could this be germane? -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] RH 9, Samba 2.2.8 and Mac OS X Clients
Is this related to handling of files with resource forks? Manipulating files in Terminal, IIRC, ignores the resource fork -- but Finder actions (like dragging a folder to upload it) include those resources. You might try barking up this tree. :7) (Sorry I can't make any concrete suggestions.) -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] RE: Basic Sol8 compile question
John H Terpstra wrote: Have you tried the gcc compiler? Actually, no. :7) (I know it's an oddity to find a shop with Sun's compilers these days.) I have cc installed already, and I don't honestly have time to install a whole second compiler suite with all its complementary utilities for this. I simply want to compile samba and share out a few printer queues. Are there significant hurdles to compiling Samba 3 without gcc? I recall having all rght luck with 2.2.something earlier this year, but I really want all the cool bells whistles in Samba. If installing gcc is what it takes, well, I'll start digging. -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

On Solaris 8, for example, I believe that even the pre-packaged versions from sunfreeware.com require that the popt package be installed at the same time. Look at www.sunfreeware.com for a pre-compiled binary or source code. -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Solaris, Active Directory, and Samba 2.2.7a or 3a21
Does anyone use Samba -- either 2.2.7a or 3a21 -- on Solaris 8 to serve shares (but not printers) with users authenticaed against Active Directory? I have some questions about just what it took to get this running. -wde -- Will Enestvedt UNIX System Administrator Johnson Wales University -- Providence, RI -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
