Samba 2.0.5a dislikes Windows 2000 2.0.7 OK
Dang it. I have a nice stable slink system here, been running for a looong time, rock solid. NT 4.0 clients access it via samba 2.0.5a, and everything works. Well, we're in the process of pushing out Winders 2000 ... which won't talk to 2.0.5a. I have several other machines, potato and woody installs. 2.0.7 works with win2k just fine. Any ideas just what the problem is with 2.0.5a ? Is it fixable/configurable ? How tough is it to get 2.0.7 running on a standard slink system ? -- Dean Carpenter [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 94TT :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

RE: netstd tools in the base system (was Re: What to do with /bi n/perl symlink?)
Don't forget that there are a lot of firewalls (ANS Interlock in particular) out there that require logging in first. Passive mode won't work. That is, you ftp to the firewall, log in, and finally do a user [EMAIL PROTECTED] That gives you a connection to the remote site which then prompts for the password. Yick. -- Dean Carpenter [EMAIL PROTECTED] 94 TT :)[EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Rev.

Now that ftp is removed, they would either have to download netstd using something other than linux, or use dselect to download netstd. Given some people's dislike of dselect, this will be a major complaint. Some people can't use dselect's ftp method, firewalls and so on. Unless the firewall doesn't allow ANY ftp at all, the ftp method supports passive mode. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Findutils and Cron package minor changes needed
In the findutils package, /etc/updatedb.conf could use a small addition. Add /var/spool/news and /var/spool/squid to the PRUNEPATHS variable. In the cron package, /etc/checksecurity.conf needs the same. Add on /var/spool/news | on /var/spool/squid to the CS_DIRS variable. I don't know whether those changes should be in those two packages or in the inn and squid packages, but without them the scripts run for a *long* time on large systems. -- Dean Carpenter [EMAIL PROTECTED] 94 TT :)[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
