Hello!

I use samba from current potato. I have Win98 client. I find that if
I try to copy (by Windows) a large file from client onto samba network drive,
then this file corrupts almost for sure. 

Can anybody help me?

Samba + Win98: Please, help

2000-03-28 Thread Serge Gavrilov
Hello, Debian Users.

On server I use samba from current potato.

On client under Win98 I have tried to install on samba share disk the
applications.  But there are a lot of applications which crashes when
installed on Samba share. These applications are M$ Office, Netscape etc.
These applications starts and crashes, or the Setup program crashes etc. 
It seems that some files installed are broken. When I do the following:

1) subst d: c:\
2) install the applications on d:
3) remove disk d:
4) map samba share as d:
5) move apps files onto d:

all apllications works !!!

So what is my problem? Why the the applications directly installed on 
network samba disk do not work properly?

Does anybody have this problem?

Thank you very much for any help!

I think this is due to your X russification. There exist two methods of X
russification: locale based (symbols determs by special names which describes 
in keysymdef.h) method based on hex codes of symbols. The second method always 
works, the first works only with programs that knows the locale. StarOffice 
don't know russian locale :(. I use the second method: my keyboard map based 
on hex codes of russian symbols and my XLOCALE is ISO-8859-1. Thus I down't
have this problem.

No. This is a bug. What version of open package do you use? I used 1.4-10. I
have sent bug report and maintainer answered me that I need to take 1.4-13
from potato. Both 1.4-13 and 1.4-9 from hamm does not have this bug.


/bin/open

Hi!

Now i have installed Slink. But I have a problem: /bin/open does not work
properly. If I say: 

/bin/open -v -- /bin/bash 
 
I see
 
Using VT /dev/tty12 but I see that there is nothing like bash started on tty12

If I use open from Hamm distribution there is no problem.

Is this a bug?

Thank you.

In Netscape 4.5 there are a lot of bugfixes, especially important for russian
