Fw: [Samba] How is the Samba people stress testing Samba.
I'm in the "testing and proof" stage of converting from Windows NT 4 to Linux/SAMBA and I'm very interested in any "stress testing" that you (or anyone else) could point me to. If you get your DOS Program working, would you mind sharing it? The other thing that interests me in your post is the corruption of a Paradox database. I'm also trying to convert of a buddy of mine to the SAMBA scene at his wife's Veterinarian clinic. They use a Paradox database for just about ALL of their record keeping and billing. Last week we setup a test server with Red Hat 8 and Samba 2.2.5 and got nearly 4 times the performance over Windows 2000 running the database on the same hardware. The problem is that they *pound* on the database 8-12 hours a day 6 days a week. I I'm looking at corruption 4-48 into production, I'm not going to have a buddy for very long Have been able to learn anything more on this front? I'm going back out the clinic tonight to do some more testing and I'll report anything that happens while I'm there. Kevin I understand your worry. I'm right now considering going back to Win98 as we have to figure out, where exactly the problem lies. Ihave tried with different kernels 2.4.16 through 2.4.19 but have not yet been able to solve this issue. If I were you I would be very careful about moving the database as things are right now. I suggest that youat leastrun a very lengthy concurrent paradox stress test (from multiply workstations) before moving. You could have acopy of my DOS testprogram, but it'sin Danish and I have never translated it to English. The program was written as we had problems with database corruption when moving a financial database from Netware toWindows NT3.5. The reason I posted the original message is that I'm really interested in knowing how Samba has beenstress tested. Bo

Re: [Samba] CUPS printing
Someone calling himself linuxpower adviced on this list: Message: 2 Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2002 07:30:18 +0100 (CET) From: =?iso-8859-1?q?linux=20power?= [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Samba] CUPS printing To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --0-1567453496-1037255418=:2514 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Replace -P %p in the print command line with the absolute path to the printer. Bug in samba. Hi, linuxpower, I have read your repeated advice on this list to use the absolute path to the printer inside the print command. On other occasions you talked about an absolute path to a printing device. I suppose, you mean the same thing with both your variants of your wording. Would you please be so kind to explain to me what you mean by these? Would you please give an example for an absolute path to the printer, for an absolute path to a printing device plus an example for the print command, as you imagine does work in the cases you advice to use it? Sorry, I can't make my mind up about this one. (I wouldn't mind about this -- but your advices leads to e-mails, directed to *my* mailbox, of people asking what the *~#?$§ this means...) Your talking in the context of CUPS about path to a device, makes it very likely to be mixed up with the clearly defined technical term device URI which CUPS uses. On one occasion, you have even given the specific advice Fix it by replacing -P %p with the absolute path to the printing device found in lpstat -v and on another one (Fri Oct 4 06:55:24 2002) you wrote There is a bug in samba which cannot resolve -P %p in the print command.Replace -P %p with the absolute path to the printer. Excuse me -- this advice is pure nonsense (while a bug in Samba might be there). Here are the reasons: lpstat -v on a CUPS based printing system gives something that is named a device URI in all relevant documentation. If it is the parallel:/dev/lp0 device-URI, one *could* assume to take the /dev/lp0 part as a path, even an absolute path. But what about device-URIs like lpd://10.160.51.131/PORT1 socket://hp-printer:9100 ipp://kde-cups-server/printers/infotec4105 ?? Would you also call //10.160.51.131/PORT1 or //hp-printer:9100 or //kde-cups-server/printers/infotec4105 an absolute path? CUPS does encode in the device-URI the protocol to be used for the communication with the printer plus something you might call absolute path to the device. You can't replace inside the Samba print command (in smbd.conf) the -P %p part by one of the quoted device URIs... Your creation and usage of the term of absolute path I found nowhere clearly defined -- it seems to only lead to utter confusion and urban legends... - About your conceived bug in Samba -- please consider this: There is also a hint in the smb.conf man page: ...*if* the setting is printing = cups and printcap = cups and ...*if* Samba is compiled against libcups, ...and *if* there is an entry in cupsd.conf to get CUPS to create a printcap file [Printcap /etc/printcap], then *any* print command setting in smb.conf will be *ignored*, as samba is then using a direct access to the CUPS API for printing This means: if the two simple settings printing = cups and printcap = cups don't work, you probably don't have a smbd which is compiled against libcups. To check, simply run as root ldd `which smbd` (on Linux, dunno about ldd on other Samba platforms). - Now for the original question Mark Belfanti [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: For printing from windows with windopws driver using cups you may need to reconfigure to have sups act as a raw print queue.

I've just switched my Linux server to use Cups instead of LPRng. I can print all day to our HP LaserJet 4 Plus. Hi, Mark, CUPS ships a well-working Laserjet driver. Install it (as root) with lpadmin -p laserjet4plus -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -E -m laserjet.ppd (The -m switch will retrieve the laserjet.ppd from the standard repository for not-yet-installed-PPDs, which CUPS keeps at /usr/share/cups/model/.

If you are experiencing file corruption that is actually caused by Samba, then we'd all like to know exactly how to reproduce the problem.

[Samba] General info Samba as Printserver for NT4.0
Hello dear reader, I was trying very hard for several days to setup a linux-server with Samba to work as a printserver in a NT-network. The Printserver should only offer the the print-service for networkable HP printers (1200) . This means, i just wanted to see, if i could replace the existing NT-printserver by a linux-machine. The only problem that i could not overcome, was, the automatic download of vendor printer driver files (for windows) from the linux-machine onto the NT-clients. All docs say this works fine for W9X and NT, but now, after studying a lot of Newsgroups, i think, it does not work for NT. My question now: Is it possible to use the old fashioned method (using printer driver file-, printer driver location-, printer driver-parameters) of printer driver downloads to Win/NT-Clients with Samba 2.2.1a and NT4.0 ? If not, is it possible to do that with a Samba Version 2.2.1 ? I hope you can answer my questions and thank you very much for your reply !

[Samba] locking issue
Title: locking issue Dear list, I personally think this is a non-issue, but I may be incorrect. If it is a non issue I need to find a way to get some communication going on making it evident to the devlopers of a software program. I have strict locking = YES (which is by default set to NO) set and I have been repeatedly told that there is a locking issue within SAMBA. I don't believe this is the case as we are pushed towards a propriatary client. Basically it boils down to this... 1.) Samba has been stable...no/few issues 2.) Locking is set to strict...shouldn't have the issues that COMPANY X and COMPANY Y had right? 3.)Why do I want to pay thousands of dollars because COMPANY X and COMPANY Y couldn't figure out that locking should be set. Now what I'm asking if: A.) Is this locking issue is indeed resolved by me setting this lock? B.) Even if that setting resolves said issue or not - what can I do to get some communication open for testing so we don't have to purchase X product because of a simple fix or setting change. I'd be more than happy to get ahold of some developers at this place to get some kind of a dialog set up.

That should list the available shares. If not, then it would seem that name resolution is the problem. Try 'net view ip.of.linux' If samba is happy, that should show you the shares. Also, make sure that the RH8 does not have the firewalling enabled. As root 'service iptables stop' should turn it off. Then try the access from the w2k box.

[Samba] nmbd memory leak in 2.2.x CVS
I am running 2.2.6 on a customer's site and everything has been perfect. However I noticed the other day that one of the two nmbd processes (it is a wins server) had grown to 13Mb over a two week period.

Re: [Samba] XP Pro And Samba
We dont have so good experience here on the list connecting XP's.It is rather difficult because M$ probably have done something with the XP firewall. However this could not be the problem here since your internet connection works fine.Samba uses ports 137(udp) ,138(udp) and 139 (tcp). make sure they are opened.You must also create the same user/passwd pair in linux as in samba, and log in with that in windows.But here you would probably got an Access denied error or permission denied error if that was not ok.Else make sure you have listed up thrusted interfaces in interfaces=x.x.x.x 127.0.0.1 in smb.conf.Eventually enable wins in smb.conf and set the wins ip in tcp/ip prop. in XP to the ip of your lan card.There could be a lot of other thing you must do that perhaps sombody else could answer, however I would check these things I mentioned first. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] skrev: I have a win98 peer to peer network using a Samba server for file sharing.

[Samba] Samba Member Server or LDAP?
Hi, Is it possible for samba to act as a member server in a samba domain? What I'm trying to accomplish is: I already have a samba pdc setup. Everything works fine with login scripts, password change, etc. However I need to move all of the home directories onto another server with a much larger disk and would like to keep the existing server to authenticate users against. My idea was to point the new member server to the existing pdc as password server, and set the pdc server logon home option to point to \\member\home\%u. My ultimate goal is to centralize user/machine management and only have to do it one one machine, but have the option of several servers available to all users setup on said machine. Would looking at implementing LDAP be a more efficient option? Thanks for your help.

RE: [Samba] Switching to another Samba server
Well, the fact that the problem is with the permissions isn't set in stone, but it's my best assessment at the moment. Regular websites seem to work fine in IIS from the Samba share. But .NET sites seem to be a different story. The error comes in the MyBase.New line of code in the .NET site, which I believe is the server trying to maintain a read/write relationship with the directory that has the website. Anyway, in Windows, when I right-click on the folder within the Samba share and view the permissions, it shows me 3 sets of permissions: Everyone, the WWW Group on the Samba domain, and the WWW User on the Samba domain. These correspond to the permissions that are on the Linux filesystem for this folder, which is chmod'ed to 775 and owned by the www user and the www group. However, while Windows understands that much of the permissions, none of the boxes are actually checked. It knows _who_ should have rights, but not _what_ rights they should have. And checking the boxes doesn't do anything, as they immediately un-check when I try to apply the changes. As for the configuration of the Windows box, the WWW user on the Samba domain is logged into the console with the Samba shares mapped as drives. It's ok for this user to stay perpetually logged into the console. The share to which it is connecting, and to which the IIS server's wwwroot points, is Read/Write from Samba's point of view, and the WWW user owns every file/folder in that directory, recursively. In the IIS Directory Security settings for the main website, Anonymous Access is allowed, and the Anonymous user is set to [Samba domain]\www with the correct password set. Digest authentication for windows domain servers is checked, and greyed to not allow un-checking. Nothing else is checked. Also of note is the fact that, ultimately, I would also like to make virtual directories in IIS that point to domain users' home directories on the Samba share. The idea being that users will click on those links and be presented with Windows login prompts in their browsers which authenticate them to the server. That way I can build all kinds of cool account maintenance tools in .NET and my users can maintain their accounts on my website. I somewhat was able to accomplish this... I made the virtual directories, was presented with the login prompt and, upon authentication, I was able to see the home directory's contents. However, I was only able to see things that were world-readable (the home directory itself was world-readable). Well, that's it in a nutshell. David P.

[Samba] Samba's Printer Going Off-Line (after a Win98 Machine speaks to it)
Hi, I have a light firewall machine that also acts as a Samba print server for a Win32 host on my intranet. For some reason, if the Win98 machine hasn't printed for an extended length of time, the printer goes off-line. When the Win32 tries to print, the printer throws an error and we have to unplug the printer and then plug it back in. It then tries to finish the print job which doesn't look too pretty (its an HP Laserjet 5L). What is very strange is that that particular machine also is the lpd print server and there are no problems whatsoever printing from an lpd client; the only time the printer goes off-line is after a Win32 client speaks with the Samba Print Server, probably when the Win32 client shows the print dialog. Any ideas on what is causing this problem and possibly a solution?

[Samba] NT domain vs simple workgroups???
Hi, I've been following some of the posts (never received a reply to mine but found one similiar). I have a question that I hope you can clarify. Original question: I can see the server from my Windows XP machine using network neighbors, but when I double click on it I get: Path not found One reply: If you're using NT domains (not simple workgroups)... What is the difference between the NT domains and simple workgroups? Where do you set a workgroup name in NT? I understand it in Linux, Win 98/95, but NT only asks for domain name. At least that I can see. At home I'm using RedHat 6.0 samba server (version?), NT4;service pack 1, and Win 98. My intranet is running on Apache in the samba server. From the NT and Win 98 pc's I can access the intranet via Netscape and MIE. I can see the samba server in Network Neighborhood and I can open the path to the files. I can open the .html and .txt files from them also and make changes to them. I have not had to make any changes to the default smb.conf or the apache config files. The files are saved in /home/user/public_html At work I'm using RedHat 6.0 samba server (version?), NT4 (service pack??) and Novell Netware Server (version??). My intranet is running on Apache in the samba server. From the NT pc's I can access the intranet via Netscape and MIE. I can see the samba server in Network Neighborhood but when I try to open it I get Path not found, no valid path to server, etc. I am unable to open any files on the samba server, which is what I need to be able to do. The files are saved in /home/user/public_html I only have administrator access to the samba server. There is a coworker with administrator access to the NT machine's, but they know less about this than me. Neither of us have access to the Netware server and evidently, the coworker wants to leave out the main IT people. What can I do on the samba server, or have done on the NT machines? Not knowing the service pack version, but having read that 3 and above don't allow plain text passwords, I have asked him to EnablePlainTextPassword in the registry. Will this work? Do I need to make changes to the smb.conf file? What changes? Well any help would be appreciated! Thank you. C Bud __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sorry, I just noticed that you said 5L, I was thinking of the larger ones with a LCD on the front. It does have a power save mode that kicks in instantly. Have you tried reinstalling the drivers or checking for newer ones? You might try using an old LaserJet driver that is compatible with the printer. A laserjet II or III driver might work.

[Samba] NT domains -vs- simple workgroups????
Hi, I've been following some of the posts (never received a reply to mine but found one similiar). I have a question that I hope you can clarify. Original question: I can see the server from my Windows XP machine using network neighbors, but when I double click on it I get: Path not found One reply: If you're using NT domains (not simple workgroups)... What is the difference between the NT domains and simple workgroups? Where do you set a workgroup name in NT? I understand it in Linux, Win 98/95, but NT only asks for domain name. At least that I can see. At home I'm using RedHat 6.0 samba server (version?), NT4;service pack 1, and Win 98. My intranet is running on Apache in the samba server. From the NT and Win 98 pc's I can access the intranet via Netscape and MIE. I can see the samba server in Network Neighborhood and I can open the path to the files. I can open the .html and .txt files from them also and make changes to them. I have not had to make any changes to the default smb.conf or the apache config files. The files are saved in /home/user/public_html At work I'm using RedHat 6.0 samba server (version?), NT4 (service pack??) and Novell Netware Server (version??). My intranet is running on Apache in the samba server. From the NT pc's I can access the intranet via Netscape and MIE. I can see the samba server in Network Neighborhood but when I try to open it I get Path not found, no valid path to server, etc. I am unable to open any files on the samba server, which is what I need to be able to do. The files are saved in /home/user/public_html I only have administrator access to the samba server. There is a coworker with administrator access to the NT machine's, but they know less about this than me. Neither of us have access to the Netware server and evidently, the coworker wants to leave out the main IT people. What can I do on the samba server, or can be done on the NT machines? Not knowing the service pack version, but having read that 3 and above don't allow plain text passwords, I have asked him to EnablePlainTextPassword in the registry. Will this work? Do I need to make changes to the smb.conf file? What changes? Well any help would be appreciated! (But please don't say get a newer version of Linux) If I need a newer version of samba, where do I dowload it from? Is it rpm? or tar? Easy to install/compile? etc... Thank you.

Re: [Samba] Did I get hacked?? strange log info...
Jesse Vaughan sagte: Also on a side note, Any of you know what the deal is with the martian messages my kernel is getting?? 'martian sources' are a FAQ amongst linux firewall guys. In short, a network device reports a 'martian source' when it sees a packet that can't be 'from this planet' so it must be from mars (=martian source). An example would be a packet which comes from the internal net, HAS mac adress info (=is not routed) but doesn't fit the network config of the device in question.

Re: [Samba] NT domains -vs- simple workgroups????
You dont write what you use workgroup or domain or you use NT4 WS or Server? I mean you use WS and workgroup. Your samba have config this is reported by linux command testparm -s send reply of this command with allconf to me or samba list when you have problem. Secondary is your defined smbusers ... send login names from smbpasswd file. Afther this i can help you. At your que what is diferent domain of workgroup... 1. Domain server must register all NT XP W2K clients to work but workgroup not. 2. Domain server can profile store and login script for any Wx client workgroup not. 3. Domain server PDC on samba exist only one per domain in NT can secondary BDC backup. 4. Domain server central store of acl to all domain subservers and clients.

Cannot get net ads join to work under Solaris 8
HI, Any clues would be appreciated in getting net ads join working on Solaris 8. I have downloaded the latest CVS samba 3.0. on to a solaris 8 box as is.

Hello,
I was looking at the ldap authentication code (in 2.2.5) and it looks
like there is no support for having multiple ldap servers for
authentication (ie, if one is not responding, try from a backup). Does
anyone have a patch to add this functionality? If not, I'll go ahead
and do it but I wanted to check to see if it has already been done first.
Check the HEAD code. There may be support in there you can back port.
No such support at present, but in HEAD you can come close by setting up
2 passdb backends. (This isn't ideal however, beocuse lookups that fail
in the first will always go to the second).
Adding such support to HEAD would be very nice - the difficult bit is
actually deciding how to construct smb.conf options.
I've added support for this to my copy of 2.2.5. I've run it through
several tests with different combinations of our ldap servers being up
and down during our off hours here to verify it, and it things seem to
be working just fine so I thought I'd send you guys a patch if you are
interested.
As far as syntax for the smb.conf options, I just used the existing
option (ldap server) but allowed for multiple hosts to be separated by
a space or comma. This was simple but doesn't take into account the
possibility of ldap servers running on different ports.
Thanks for everything you guys do.

smb_register_passdb()
Hi Andrew,
Here's a patch to add a smb_register_passdb() function. It puts the
list of available backends in a double linked list, and lets you add
backends with smb_register_passdb().
In this patch, the double linked list contains a name and a pointer
to an init function that allocates and fills a pdb_methods structure.
A different approach might be to add an init() pointer to the
pdb_methods structure and put a name and pointer to a pdb_methods
structure in the double linked list.
Could you please take a look at it and tell me whether you
have any comments?
Btw. Good luck with your exam today!

Correction To DOMAIN_MEMBER.html
[this is almost too trivial to bother with, but in the interests of accuracy ..] I just converted a Samba 2.2.3a-for-Debian server from being a stand-alone workgroup member using plain-text passwords into a full NT-administered domain member using encrypted passwords and security=domain. This being the first server we've done this with, I paid attention to the apparent authoritative document on the subject, DOMAIN_MEMBER.html in docs/htmldocs. It runs pretty much like this : cut In order to join the domain, first stop all Samba daemons and run the command: root# smbpasswd -j DOM -r DOMPDC -UAdministrator%password [...] Now, before restarting the Samba daemons you must edit your smb.conf(5) file to tell Samba it should now use domain security. Change (or add) your security = line in the [global] section of your smb.conf to read: security = domain Next change the workgroup = line in the [global] section to read: workgroup = DOM as this is the name of the domain we are joining. You must also have the parameter encrypt passwords set to yes in order for your users to authenticate to the NT PDC. cut So, in plodder fashion, that's the order I tried to do things in. Unfortunately, unless you edit smb.conf to set encrypt passwords = yes *first*, you can't run the smbpasswd domain-joining call - it fails with : SAMBABOX:/etc/samba# smbpasswd -j MYDOMAIN -r MYPDC -Uadminuser%adminpassword Error connecting to MYPDC Unable to join domain MYDOMAIN. I just thought it might help other folks, to document this explicitly. I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out what I was doing wrong, jacking up the Samba debug level, getting Ethereal traces of the join operation, etc. ... I checked, and it's still the same in the version posted on the Samba.org website, although there's also Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html which has a section Make Samba a member of an MS Windows NT security domain which documents the same thing in a somewhat different and perhaps less confusing manner. I'd have gladly produced an edited version of DOMAIN_MEMBER.html for consideration, but I know the project uses Docbook for this stuff, and I don't know the first thing about that :( Cheers Nick Boyce EDS, Bristol, UK

Ok. Well I had the same problem when I was starting to setup

Well I think you are right. You are having problems in this section of
code:
if ((ret = krb5_rd_req(context, auth_context, packet,
NULL, keytab, NULL, tkt))) {
DEBUG(3,(krb5_rd_req with auth failed (%s)\n,
error_message(ret)));
return NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE;
}
So the origin of the problem is in the MIT krb5_rd_req function
call..
My smb.conf file is:
bash-2.05$ cat /usr/local/samba-3.0alpha20/lib/smb.conf
[global]
realm = CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
ads server = MSKDC1.CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
security = ads
workgroup = CONSUMOMS
[personal]
path = %H
writable = yes
but I didn't see any info for realm and ads server in your smb.conf
my /etc/krb5.conf is:
[libdefaults]
default_realm = CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
egd_socket=/dev/egd-pool
clockskew = 300
# default_etypes_des = des-cbc-crc arcfour-hmac-md5
default_etypes = des-cbc-crc
default_etypes_des = des-cbc-crc
default_tkt_enctypes = des-cbc-crc
default_tgs_enctypes = des-cbc-crc
[realms]
CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX = {
kdc = MSKDC1.CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
kpasswd_server = MSKDC1.CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
admin_server = MSKDC1.CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
default_domain = CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
}
[domain_realm]
.consumoms.aranea.com.mx = CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
.CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX = CONSUMOMS.ARANEA.COM.MX
Hopes this help you!

You need to download the klist command from the MS Site. Search for the

Re: NULL sessions - Listing shares anonymously - restrict anonymous

In the Samba 2.2 branch the 'restrict anonymous' parameter behaves as per the manual page. It's broken and unlikely to be fixed. Ive been reading some dev mailing lists and someone said that there would be 0, 1 , 2 as possible values to the restrict anonymous option, as it been done yet ? In the Samba HEAD and 3.0 branches however the parameter behaves more like the RestrictAnonymous registry setting. Only 'restrict anonymous = 1' is currently supported though. Tim.

Tiny conceptual nmblookup buglet.
I've come across and interesting, but mostly benign, problem with nmblookup. Here's the deal: IIS registers some NetBIOS names when it starts up. One of these is the Internet Group name INet~Services1C. This name is translated to NBT wire format *without* up-casing the name first (which is against the rules, and should probably be considered a bug in IIS). The result looks like this: EJEOGFHEHOFDGFHCHGGJGDGFHDCACABM The thing is, nmblookup does abide by the rules, so it up-cases all names before encoding them. The name INET~SERVICES1C looks like this: EJEOEFFEHOFDEFFCFGEJEDEFFDCACABM Match those up and you'll see they're different. Samba is further polite in that it decodes names and does a case-insensitive comparison when trying to match names. Windows, it seems, does not do this. As a (reasonable) speed hack, they just compare the wire formats. As a result, nmblookup cannot find the INet~Services1C on the network. Chris -)- Ps. Yes, if I have time I'll try to work out a solution. Pps. There's another IIS/NetBIOS name bug. IIS also registers a name built by prepending the string IS~ to the machine name. If the result is too long, it will overwrite the suffix byte. -- Samba Team -- http://www.samba.org/ -)- Christopher R.
