Re: Samba-Linux-XP-Win95
Hello all! I ran in a problem similar with this. Even if XP has a Public share (no user, no pass), both Linux and W95 keept asking for password. First I suspected password encryption to be the cause, but I discovered afterwards that a default XP install is blocking the access of Guest user, so the password is asked even is nothing there. After enabling Guest account in XP, all the problems dissapeared: XP sees all and all sees XP. I don't know what relevance can have a Guest account (blocked or not) to another user password to acces some shares... but...

Samba Server recompiled???????
Hi all! I have a REALLY BIG QUESTION: I have a RH Linux 7.0 with some servers up and running, including Samba 2.0.7-21ssl (standard rpm from install). I have w2k pro clients and I want to set up RH Linux to be a domain controller. I put that reg in w2k registry. With w98 clients all is working properly. Although i can see it in workgroup, when i try to set up the domain, all is getting freaky. The samba log file is telling me that the user's auth failed anc could not logon. The w2k error is something like "Procedure out of range" - freaky, huh? Please help me on this. Do I need to recompile samba with some misc options?

Re: IDE disk geometry
Yes, I agree. But on my 15Gb HDD lilo will only display LI and hangs up the system if BOTH boot and swap are not in the first 1024. I don't explain, just see the facts. I'm running RHL 6.2. Is ths so old? - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, October 07, 2000 2:56 PM Subject: Re: IDE disk geometry Alex Sofronie wrote: geometry.

I have several systems with the entire swap space well after cyl 1024 and have had no problems. The auto partitioning in Pinstripe and Guinness set up swap at the very end of the range of cylinders. I have even booted systems without any swap space at all and ample memory and have had no problems. I have had systems with the swap space on a disk other than the "first" hard disk. I have had swap space on a RAID-0 MD device. AFAIK there is no 1024 cylinder limitation w.r.t. swap space. Possibly it is a limitation if you don't have enough memory, or are using an old version of lilo or older kernel rev. Might the "linear" option also make a difference where geometry problems are involved? These days, I set up a 24-32MB /boot partition when needed to make sure the kernel is located within the first 1024 cyls. I allow more space in /boot for SMP systems or systems which need special drivers where I would tend to have multiple kernel versions that I want to boot. I have even had a case where "/boot" was on a partition of /dev/hda and "/" was on partition of /dev/hdc and it works fine. Access to swap is entirely a Linux not BIOS matter so it conforms to Linux not BIOS restrictions. In other worsds there is no 1024 limit for swap. There are there three things who must conformd to BIOS restrictions: the boot loader, the kernel and initrd. However the GRUB boot loader seems to be abe to can access kernels and in initrds who are beyond the 1024 cylinder or in the second IDE controller. Perhaps modern BIOSSes don't have those stringent limits. -- Jean Francois Martinez Project Independence: Linux for the Masses http://www.independence.seul.org ___ Redhat-devel-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-devel-list ___ Redhat-devel-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-devel-list
Re: IDE disk geometry
Hi all! I have the same problem and i posted it to list but no one couldn't give me the right answer. I had to recover some VERY old documentation about lilo and ext2 to face this. So, here we go! The difference between bios params and linux reported params can be the problem. Put your hdd params to auto and leave them this way! They'll work. If you use lilo, pay attention that it want the boot partition to be in the first 1024 cyls. If not, lilo fails to initiate after trying to get right geometry. Also, you must have the swap partition in the first 1024 cyls ENTIRELLY. On my system, RHLinux 62 reported something like kernel panic: could not... . If you do not use lilo you'll still have to put linux swap partition in the first 1024 cyls. I recommend PQMagic (MSDOS platform) 5 to do the job. It's very user friendly and bug-free. Silly question: why does not have Linux a create/move/resize partition program like this most powerful PQMagic for DOS? - Original Message - From: Sangeeta Huria [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2000 12:08 PM Subject: IDE disk geometry Hi All, I have an IDE hard disk of capacity 17 GB with two partitions. One partition of capacity 8GB has Windows installed on it. I am trying to install Linux on the other partition. But, the disk geometry(no. of tracks, cylinders and sectors) reported by BIOS does not match the disk geometry reported at the time of LINUX installation. Can anyone please suggest what's going wrong and what needs to be done in this case.
