Revised smb-wall (Was: [Samba] smbclient -M --> ERRmsgoff?)

[Wilkinson Charlie E]

I've gotten smb-wall to work with Samba v3.  If there's a better way,
please let me know.  If not, what's the chances this could be included
in a future release?

#!/usr/bin/perl
#
#@(#) smb-wall.pl Description:
#@(#) A perl script which allows you to announce whatever you choose to
#@(#) every PC client currently connected to a Samba Server...
#@(#) ...using "smbclient -M" message to winpopup service.
#@(#) Default usage is to message every connected PC.
#@(#) Alternate usage is to message every pc on the argument list.
#@(#)  Hacked up by Keith Farrar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
#
# Cleanup and corrections by
# Michal Jaegermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
# Message to send can be now also fed (quietly) from stdin; a pipe will
do.

# Modified 20060414 to work with Samba v3 by
# Charlie Wilkinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
# Added call to nmblookup to resolve IP addresses to NetBIOS names
#===

$smbstatus = "/usr/bin/smbstatus -S";
$smbshout = "/usr/bin/smbclient -M";
$nmblookup = "/usr/bin/nmblookup -A";

if (@ARGV) {
@clients = @ARGV;
undef @ARGV;
}
else {  # no clients specified explicitly
open(PCLIST, "$smbstatus |") || die "$smbstatus failed!.\n$!\n";
while() {
last if /^Locked files:/;
split(' ', $_, 6);
# do not accept this line if less then six fields
next unless $_[5];
# if you have A LOT of clients you may speed things up by
# checking pid - no need to look further if this pid was already
# seen;  left as an exercise :-)
$client = $_[2];
if( $client =~ /^\d+\./ ){  # Lookup NetBIOS names for IP's
open(NMBOUT, "$nmblookup $client |") || die "$nmblookup
failed!.\n$!\n";
while($line=) {
if( $line =~ /^\s*(\S+)\s<00> -\s*M/ ){
$client = $1;
last;
}
}
close(NMBOUT);
}
$client =~ tr/a-z/A-Z/; # to better catch/reject
dupes
next if $client =~ /^\d+\./;# toss failed lookup (PC
down?)
next if grep($_ eq $client, @clients);  # we want this name once
push(@clients, $client);
}
close(PCLIST);
}

# debugging...
#print "@clients\n";
#exit(0);

if (-t) {

I don't have any good docbook/XML pointers so its normally
just follow the convention of what's already there.
If you send me diffs, I'll try to review them and get them
in tree.I can also send you a build script for the docs
but I've never been able to get a working environment
on anything but debian testing.

Re: [Samba] hardware to use with samba?????

[Gary Dale]

ECC memory is useful for preventing memory errors. It doesn't matter how 
long it takes to get the wrong answer.  :)  I recommend it for anything 
critical.


The memory access speed is minuscule compared with the disk I/O speed 
and network speed. The type of memory is not important. The amount of 
memory usually plays a bigger role on servers.


How much caching helps depends on usage patterns. If your users are 
accessing the same files frequently, it can really boost performance. If 
they don't, you won't see a great performance increase.


The processor you've chosen has a lot of power for simple file serving. 
I gather from the questions, you're not doing this for a large 
organization, so you're unlikely to need more performance.


You should do some performance monitoring on the server to find out if 
you need to change anything. Put it up in the live environment and see 
how much CPU is being used, what percentage of cache hits you're 
getting, etc., and upgrade it accordingly.

Like any file server, you'd want the fastest drives available, which
means SCSI, put into a RAID array. Beyond that, more memory allows for
more caching. Processor speed is not a huge concern unless you're
running gigabit Ethernet, in which case you may need a fast processor
just to be able to pump the data into the pipe.

RE: [Samba] smbclient -M --> ERRmsgoff?

[Wilkinson Charlie E]

Ok, well Jeremy...  Apologies are in order.  Turns out I screwed up.
I'm sorry.  I got my args mixed up and I was using -I specifying my own
server hostname.  So it seems I was talking to myself.  DOH!!  It was
your request for an ethereal trace that resulted in that discovery.
"Why aren't there any packets?"

The good news -- If I just use -M and the netbios name, I can get popups
on my XP workstation.  However, if I use -M and an IP address, I get
"session request failed."

Problem is, I don't have the netbios name for all the clients I'm trying
to connect to.  

Backing up a little  I'm trying to get an smb-wall script to work.
Again.  I had written one myself years ago that I'm trying to get
working again, and there's also the smb-wall.pl script that ships with
Samba.  They both use smbstatus/smbclient and function about the same.
Or rather, they break about the same.  Apparently an older form of
smbstatus listed both the netbios name and IP address of connected
clients.  Now I instead have a single column with a mix of netbios names
and IP addresses.  Neither my script nor apparently the Samba
smb-wall.pl script have been updated to deal with this.  It appears I
really need the netbios name to feed to smbclient, and possibly both the
netbios name and IP address for non-local clients, right?

So now I'm frantically RTFMing on how I might be able to do WINS
lookups, get the desired format from smbstatus, or otherwise get the
netbios name, or convince smbclient it doesn't need the name.  Any
further pointers that might help me along would be greatly appreciated.

yes.  Eventually there will be a production release of

[Samba] smbclient -M --> ERRmsgoff?

[Wilkinson Charlie E]

Hi,
I've been a Samba user/admin for about a decade with relative success,
but now I'm stumped.  I'm hoping someone might be a solution to this, or
at least a solid answer.
 
I'm looking to send out winpopup messages to our XP clients when one of
our Samba fileshare servers needs to be rebooted.
 
So I'm trying to sending the messages from a Linux/Samba server, which
is not a member of a domain.  Clients are pre-SP2 XP Pro boxes, and are
domain (actually, active directory) members.  Using NET SEND from one XP
client to another, I can send winpopup messages all day long and drive
everyone nuts..  Using "smbclient -M  -I ",
I get the ERRmsgoff error.
 
Since I know the messenger service is running and this appears not to be
a firewall problem, what am I left with?  Server not member of domain?
Is that the prime suspect?  Couldn't find any clues about that anywhere.
(Well... ok, I didn't check the source code yet)
 
If it's some kind of authentication-based problem, I see that there's a
-U option to provide a username in -M mode, but no apparent option to
provide a password.  We have used such tricks in the past to print to an
XP domain client's shared printer.  Is there a similar way to
authenticate for sending winpopups?  Am I even barking up the right
tree?
 
If it helps, here's the response portion of the debug output:

[Samba] error message: Can't contact the NETLOGON pipe

Hi all,

I have two samba 3.0.21c + openldap domains setup and the appropriate

Whenever a user logs in to the domain that the machine is not a member
of the logon script fails.  The only hint I've been able to find are

Can someone steer me in the right direction of what I'm missing or

It's never hit and miss according to my tests.  There have been any
regressions in this code that I'm aware of in a really long time
(couple of years).

chmod 000 removes all permissions.  Are you sure this is what you did?
If so, you probably meant to do chmod 777.

The tdb mapping is designed to be persistent.  Sounds like
you have other problems going on.

Nope.  You need an AD DC implementation for that.

[Samba] HW suggestion for a new office

[Simone]

Hi list,
I am setting up a samba server (CentOS4) in new office of 30 employees, 
just file sharing not heavy traffic. We have an old Compaq 1850r PIII 
600 512Mb Ram that I could use and I was wondering if the hardware would 
be enough (guess so).

Thanks, any suggestion is really appreciated

[Samba] UID/GID Issues with Samba in ADS mode with Winbind

[Dracula]

Hello

I am  seeing an issue where Winbind is not keeping it's UID/GID
mappings.  For how long does the mapping stay in effect?  Is this
mapping effected by reboots or server restarts?  Will an AD user get the
same UID/GID every time?  Is there a way we can ensure that the UID/GIDs
stick between login/logouts, etc. 

Thanks

Regards,

Komal

[Samba] Samba Member Server Authentication

[Henrik Zagerholm]

Hi list,

Scenario:

1. HQ has a Win 2003 PDC

2. Branch Office has a Samba ADS Member Server

Is it possible for a Samba ADS Member Server to handle the Windows  
Client Logons if the WAN connection between the Win 200x PDC is broken?


After reading this I got a good understanding on ADS members
http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#adssdm

But I also would need LDAP replication if I want the server to handle  
logons in case of WAN failures right?


Thanks for your help.
Henrik
