Re: OS X clients - Samba Arrrrggg!!

Actually I only tried to copy files to the server from an OS X machine for the first time yesterday so I don't actually know how long the problem has been around. I do remember having some trouble organising files on the server from an OS X client a week or so again. Well, I just tested here with my IMac vs. FreeBSD/Samba server and I could not repeat the problem. I'm using Mac OS 10.2.4, FreeBSD 4.8-RC (from March 3) and Samba 2.2.4_1 from ports ... looks like it's time to update that. Actually, I seem to remember some documented problems with certain versions of Mac OS and SMB shares. Is your version of Mac OS up to date? In fact, shortly after the server crashed No more mbufs? I restarted and it's been fine since. You may want to raise the number of mbufs available on this server. The problem is this: When I try to copy files from the OS X clients (and I have tried 2 to be sure), I see a Could not complete the operation because you don't have enough privileges error. I tried copy and create with both files and folders with no problems. Of corse, I am sure that the user I am logged on to the server as has full read write access to the directory concerned. To be sure I have logged on as different users. I find this problem in the Home Directories as well! Just to further confuse things - I am able to create a new folder and delete it again, although I am never permitted to put a file in it. And even stranger - when the copy fails it leaves a 0k file at the destination with name of the file I try to copy. This sounds vaguely familiar. I can't remember details, but I seem to recall installing a server a one point where files would be created, and when the client actually tried to write to the file, they had no permissions. The error was somewhere in the permissions and create ownership settings in Samba. Basically, Samba was being told to create all files as another user, with somewhat strict permissions, but then the permissions were too strict to access the file. Check the unix permissions on the 0 byte file that gets created. If they would prevent writing to that file, check your file creation options in samba. All this works perfectly on Win XP, Win 200 or Win 98 clients. Are the Win machines logging in differently than the Macs? We also run a Win 200AS file server and the OS X clients seem to have no problem coping files to shares on that machine. Confused? - I am! Yeah, so was I ... assuming that you're having the same problem I was. Chances are that I'm doing something daft - usually the way but I can't see what. Check the perms and the samba options. I may be wrong, but that's what it sounds like. I just got over this problem about a month ago. What I believe the problem was is that on the samba server in the shared folder I found some .(dot) files like FBCFolderLock and .DStore. When I deleted all these dot files that the Macs had created I no longer got the permissions problem. As always, back up before trying anything.

The problem is now solved and both Macs and Windows boxen can get in and save and edit files on the Samba server. There are two possibilities to what made this work. One is what was told to me about creating '.' files for the Macs. The Macs create a '.' file in the directory to, I'm assuming, hold the resource fork for the file so the Mac can read it. The other solution might have been that when I looked back inot the ServerFiles share on the server I noticed there were already some '.' files created by the Macs. One of these was called '.FBCLockFolder' I deleted all the '.' files that I found to be created by the Macs and everthing is working as expected.

So it can't find sysdeps.h. A locate can't seem to come up with one,
either. A Google search using ucspi-unix, sysdeps, and freebsd
turns up empty. What the heck is the sysdeps library and why don't I
have it? (Or why does ucspi-unix need it?)
According to my understanding, vmailmgr, the password authentication
module I plan to use with qmail and courier-imap, needs ucspi-unix.
Specifically, it needs a program named unixserver (compiled with
ucspi-unix), which is used to start vmailmgrd:
/usr/bin/unixserver /tmp/.vmailmgrd /usr/local/sbin/vmailmgrd \
21 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger
I'm not sure if something else, perhaps ucspi-tcp, can substitute.
In fact, given the huge thrash involved in installing qmail and its
myriad of support programs, I'm not sure of much anything at this
point.

Is the problem that both devices are using a '0'(e.g. sis0 nge0)? No, this is not the problem. I don't know why sysinstall won't configure the card, but maybe you can try it from command line: ifconfig nge0 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 (of course, use the correct ip address and netmask for your network). If something is wrong, it will at least give you an error message. If the address 'sticks', then append the following line to /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_nge0=inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 This will make sure the address remains after reboot. -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * ASCII stupid question, get a stupid ANSI! I've tried to do both of those examples and it still will not hold the IP. I do have the correct driver installed if I copied the line from LINT for my NIC to my custom kernel then rebuilt it, correct? It also does not give me an error it just acts as if everything worked.

chown and chmod using crontab?
I have a directory that 2 different groups have access to. When one group writes to the folder it retains the permissions of that group. I need the permissions to change to the permissions of the directory. I thought I could add a crontab in and run a little script every 1 minute to set the correct permissions. The script does what it should when ran by the cmdline but not when I try to run it from the crontab. Is it not possible to run chmod and chown on a folder by using a crontab? The entry into my /etc/crontab file looks like this: 0 * * * root/bin/fixperms My fixperms file looks like this: #!/bin/sh chmod -R 777 /usr/local/ServerFiles chown -R staff /usr/local/ServerFiles Am I doing this right?

If you have two different groups that need write access in a directory, the obvious solution, to me, is not to change ownership at 1 minute intervals, but to create a third group, and make the people of both groups a member of that third group. Then you give that directory write acces for that third group. - Mark System Administrator Asarian-host.org --- If you were supposed to understand it, we wouldn't call it code. - FedEx It's a good thing simplicity can't punch you in the face.

configuring AsanteGigianix1000TA
I have an Asante Giganix 1000TA card that I am having problems getting to work maybe I have missed something. I found in the LINT kernel the reference for 'nge0' wwhich is supposes to be for my card. I copied it into my new kernel that I was building then rebuilt the kernel. When I issue the 'ifconfig' command it shows up but when I try to set it up useing '/stand/sysinstall' it doesn't hold the IP address. Can someone help me figure this out?

qmail and freebsd 4.6
I am using Central Commands vexira mail server anti-virus program on FreeBSD4.6 running qmail-1.03_1 and I keep getting this error in my logs: Nov 26 14:11:37 mail /kernel: pid 3490 (vagated), uid 66: exited on signal 11 Only the time stamp and the kernel pid ever change in my logs. vagated is a store and forward smtp server it recieves the message then sends it to a temp directory where vagatefwd scans it for viruses then sends it to qmail to be delivered. I had read where signal 11's mean bad memory or other hardware problems so I scapped the old server and rebuilt a new one with all new parts and I still recieve this error. Am I losing emails because of this? Is this FreeBSD or is it the program vagated?

backing up to cd
What is the best way to backup to an atapi cdr? is it mkisofs or burncd or cdrecord? I would like to be able to have this automated where I will create a cron job that uses tar and gzip to compare the files in the directory and if there is a change in the file it will make a new backup then send it to be burned. But I am having a tough time trying to figure out which would be the smoothest way to back it up and then recover the files from the cd. I would like to be able to mount the cdrom and simply 'cp' the files to a directory. Can anyone one tell me what they think would work best?

Where is the default install for mysql
Okay, I have gotten the advice from the list to use a php4 and mysql solution to my webcalendar instead of my previous idea. I have never used mysql and have just installed it from the ports directory using make then make install on freebsd 4.7 and I need to rebuild my php with-mysql=/mysql/directory/ from how installed mysql would my path to mysql be /usr/local/bin/mysql?

Java and mysql and tomcat
I am attempting to find and use a webcalendar and have found one I would like to use at sourceforge it says the requirements are this: Java2Platform SE Tomcat Mysql MM.Mysql My questions are these, do I need tomcat if I already have apache installed? And what is MM.Mysql and is it needed? The description for it is a JDBC driver to make the connection between java servlets and the MySQL database. Is there a port in FreeBSD for this? Or does somebody else have a better solution to making a webcalendar that sits on a site that can be easily updated.

ps: bad name list
On my mail server(FreeBSD4.6) whenever I type the command 'ps ax' I get the error 'bad name list'. This is the first time I have gotten this msg. I have qmail installed and yesterday I wanted to add a function to qmail that would log all incoming an outgoing emails. So I had to recompile qmail, I did this by going into my '/usr/ports/mail/qmail/' directory added the changes to my extra.h file then did a 'make deinstall' then a 'make reinstall'. Since then I have been getting this error. What did I wrong and how can I fix this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

howto apply a diff file
I am new to freebsd and I need to update PHP because of the security hole found in it. I believe that I can use a diff file to update it without having to completely redownload and recompile it, is this right? I also have never tried this before and I can't find good documentation on how to do it. Can someone point me to a good doc or howto?
