[Samba] Can't write to a samba share...
I have a Red Hat 8.0 PC with a scanner connected and I am scanning images with sane. I would like to store the scanned images on a Red Hat 7.3 file server using Samba, but I am having some difficulty understanding how the file and directory security preferences work. I can attach to the share (called "Shared") with: smbmount //server/Shared /mnt/S -o username=username%password and can read the contents with no problems. When I do this as root on the scanner workstation, I can write to it with no problems. However, when I log in on the scanner workstation as a regular user (ie not root), I cannot write to the remote share. If I manually log in to the Server as the username and password, I can write to the shared directory OK. If I do an ls -ls of S from within the /mnt directory, I get: 4 drwxr-xr-x1 root root 4096 Mar 10 2003 S so it is clearly not writable by the user. Here is the server smb.conf settings: [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = Samba Server log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m [Shared] comment = Shared Directories path = /home/Shared valid users = @users writable = true force group = users force directory mode = 770 inherit permissions = yes The workstation username has a valid login on the server and is part of the "users" group. I have tried to add "-o rw" to the smbmount command, but it is still the same. I have then added "write list = @users" to the "Shared" share settings in the server smb.conf file, but I still can't write to it. I have increased the server smb.conf log level to 4 and then done a "touch /mnt/S/test" on the scanner workstation and have looked at /var/log/samba/scannerworkstationname on the server and and this is what it says: [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/process.c:process_smb(860) Transaction 40 of length 84 [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/process.c:switch_message(667) switch message SMBtrans2 (pid 13071) [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 4] smbd/uid.c:change_to_user(118) change_to_user: Skipping user change - already user [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfilepathinfo(1615) call_trans2qfilepathinfo: TRANSACT2_QPATHINFO: level = 1 [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(387) unix_clean_name [/rr] [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(387) unix_clean_name [rr] [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfilepathinfo(1636) call_trans2qfilepathinfo: vfs_stat of rr failed (No such file or directory) [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(91) error string = No such file or directory [2003/03/10 17:18:11, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(115) error packet at smbd/trans2.c(1638) cmd=50 (SMBtrans2) eclass=1 ecode=2 Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

Re: [Samba] How important are oplocks?
Hi Bob. I had never had anything to do with the oplocks switch with routine samba shares for file access, but I recently commissioned a new Samba server (Red Hat 8.0) which is running a Windows time and attendance database and we had intermittent problems opening a database session from various Windows PCs. The Windows error was indicating that the database was in use and could not be accessed by another user. Sure enough, when no one was logged in and one workstation accessed the database, they could apparently get in every time. However, this is a multi-user database that everyone should be able to get in to. By applying "oplocks = no" to the samba share, the problem was solved with everyone now able to open a session every time. As speed is not crucial to our usage I have not noticed any speed degradation.

[Samba] Printing with CUPS & Samba...
I am trying to print from both a Win98 PC via Samba and a Red Hat 8.0 workstation to an HP 4 Plus printer that is connected to a Red Hat 8.0 server. I have managed to get the Win98 PC working OK, but am having difficulty with the RH8 workstation. I set the printer up using a browser with :631, calling it HP4Plus, and I can send a test print from the browser on the RH8 box via :631. I can view and access the other server samba shares OK, but I am unable to send it a print job from the RH8 box. First of all on the RH8 box, I tried to set the printer as a UNIX Printer (lpd Queue) and named the server IP address and Queue name, but that didn't work. I have than told it that the printer is a Windows printer with the following settings: The Queue Type=Windows Share Name (HP4Plus) Username = valid user Password = valid password Host Ip - IP address of the server that is connected to the printer Workgroup = Windows workgroup (workgroup) I restarted cups, but it still doesn't print, and there are no entries in the /var/log/cups logs when I am trying to use Samba, but when I nominate the printer as a UNIX Printer (lpd Queue) I get in the /var/log/cups/access_log: - - [31/Dec/2002:18:59:37 +1000] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 140 - - [31/Dec/2002:18:59:37 +1000] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 140 - - [31/Dec/2002:18:59:37 +1000] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 80 - - [31/Dec/2002:18:59:37 +1000] "POST /printers/HP4Plus HTTP/1.1" 200 11231 where is the server that the printer is connected to. and in the /var/log/cups/error_log: E [31/Dec/2002:18:59:37 +1000] print_job: Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'! It would seem that printing via Samba would be the best option, but I have not been able to get it working with Red Hat 8 and Samba AT ALL. In the Global part of smb.conf, I have: load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups and in the shares part of smb.conf, I have: [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /etc/samba/drivers browseable = yes I have tried removing these last 2 entries, but when I do the Win98 PC can't see the printer. I have just about run out of ideas. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I read that the server broadcasts the printer availability, but it doesn't seem to work here.

I know that there are GUI tools available, but I have to do this on a couple of different version Red Hat servers that don't have X installed, so I would like to be able to do it manually if I can.

[Samba] ACL permissions with XP problem
Wondering if anyone can help... here is my setup: RedHat 7.3 with XFS (using the XFS install disk) After installation I'd downloaded 2.2.7 src rpm from redhat and rebuilt it with the --with-acl-support option in the samba.spec file then upgraded the resulting rpm files I've added the machine accounts and made root a smb user I can log in successfully(after applying the xp registry hack), the problem comes in when I try to change permission on a file from windows explorer. For example adding users to give them rwx permissions on a file gives me access denied. Now... I tried getfacl and setfacl and both work. When I use setfacl on a file and add a user, that user does not show up on the security tab in XP. And one other thing...

Max... this was my problem. I had loaded acl-dev... but it didn't compile.

Re: [Samba] POSIX to NT ACL bug
I JUST got over this problem with help here on the mailing list... what
version/distro of linux are you running?
Brad Sagowitz
Sergey Zhitomirsky wrote:
Hello
recently I set up XFS share under samba , and played from Win2K
with ACL entries of shared files,
and noticed that
Win2K never DENY ACL entries ,
so for example for a XFS file with acl:
# owner: a
user::r--
group::rwx
other::rwx
Win2K security tab shows for user "a":
Read & exec =
Read= Allowed
Write =
But in fact, POSIX ACL will allow user "a" to read from the file
and deny write or execute the file , as posix acl will not consult any
other ACL entries, after founding appropriate user: entry.
So, shown by Win2K flags are wrong, and must be instead :
Read & exec = Deny
Read= Allowed
Write = Deny
as NT ACL logic suppose, as far as know(?), that in case
father ACL entries will be consulted, so in this case NT user suppose
that he has "rwx" rights on the file due to other::rwx rule
(-> Everybody, Full Access=Allowed)
but when tried to write - receive Permission Denied.
So that is a samba bug, as samba must have send DENY for "write" and
"execute" and ALLOW for "read" for this user's file ("user::r--") ,
but now it just sends ALLOW for "read".
I have samba-2.2.7a,
./configure --with-acl-support --with-ssl --with-smbmount --disable-cups

[Samba] Samba & Terminal Services / Citrix
Hello! I have heard that there is a problem with using Samba along with Windows Terminal Services and that it's related to session IDs with multiple users coming from one server.

try configuring the clients to use the WINS server

you can do this by dhcp like this
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
default-lease-time 6000;
max-lease-time 72000;

option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;

Re: [Samba] How do you configure SWAT to show all options with regularlogon id?
well i think its still there admin users (S) This is a list of users who will be granted administrative privileges on the share. This means that they will do all file operations as the super-user (root). You should use this option very carefully, as any user in this list will be able to do anything they like on the share, irrespective of file permissions.

those statements are from dhcpd.conf - a separate program.

simpler problems. See below for some suggestions

Samba won't do DHCP by itself but's trivial to install a the dhcpd from
the ISC for most distributions.
if you're using debian just type 'apt-get install dhcpd'
and modify the dhcpd.conf to look like the conf file I sent you.
You don't have to do this though - it should work fine with manual
configuration.

Are you "sure" that the registry patch worked? It says that it does but
I had to do it by hand using regedit
before.
Looking more carefully at your config file i think you need to set
domain logons=yes

Finding out which files will probably involve a fair amount of trial and error. good luck! brad -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba as a WINS Server
Hello! I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to get Samba to do static mappings when it is acting as a WINS server? Are there plans to incorporate this feature in to future releases? Thanks much! Brad

[Samba] Problems joining an XP box to a Samba PDC domain
I am using RH 7.2 with Samba 2.2.4. I have changed my smb.conf as appropriate, added users on my linux box both on the machine and using smbpasswd, and applied the XP patch to my registry. This was according to the PDC HOW-TO that comes with the source. Anyway, I am not having any luck connecting the XP box to my Samba PDC. The problem is this: when I try to join my XP machine to the domain, I get a window with the following message: "A domain controller for the domain could not be contacted." This suggests that the XP box isn't seeing the Samba server properly. In the email below, the following is suggested: I have attached my smb.confif anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

[Samba] Delay opening Word, Excel files
Hello, I am running samba 2.2.7a on Red Hat 9. The clients are running Win2k with SP3 and Office XP with SP2. The Samba server authenticates with a WinNT 4 domain controller. When the users open a Word or Excel document there is a 30sec delay before the file opens. From info gleaned from searches on this subject I have tried turning oplocks off altogether, which resulted in Word and Excel crashing whenever I tried to open a file. I also tried setting oplock break wait time = 10 which had no effect. Thanks in advance for any help you could give me!

[Samba] Samba 3 and net user
Hello, I have a couple of questions regarding the net user command in Samba 3. The man page states USER ADD [password] [-F user flags] [misc. options] but doesn't describe what the user flags or misc. options are. Basically, I want to be able to set a users home directory drive letter and path by creating or modifying the users account from the shell. I know that you can't do what I need with the DOS "net user" command, so I was hoping that the Samba version of the command could provide the functionality I need :) Thanks, Brad -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] quick question re: smb.conf parameters
Ok, I know this is a stupid question but im having problems with some shares and so I have to ask: Are share parameters specified within the [global] section used as defaults for my other shares, or are they ignored? For example, if I set veto oplock files = /*.DBM/*.dbm/ within the [global] section, will that trickle down to my shares if I don't have "veto oplock files" explicitly set within them? If so, are there any share level parameters where this isn't the case?

[Samba] compilation problems with 2.2.7a on OpenBSD 3.2 using --with-ldapsam
Hello, last weekend I downloaded installed the openldap port for openbsd 3.2, which installed ldap.h and lber.h (among others) into /usr/local/include as well as liblber.a and libldap.a into /usr/local/lib. Following that, I downloaded samba-latest, ran ./configure --with-ldapsam --libdir=/usr/local/lib --includedir=/usr/local/include which came back with no problems to speak of. So I ran make, and it came up with Compiling passdb/secrets.c passdb/secrets.c: In function `secrets_named_mutex': passdb/secrets.c:287: warning: passing arg 2 of `tdb_lock_bystring' discards qualifiers from pointer target type Compiling passdb/pass_check.c Compiling passdb/smbpassfile.c Compiling passdb/machine_sid.c Compiling passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c Compiling passdb/pampass.c Compiling passdb/pdb_tdb.c Compiling passdb/pdb_ldap.c passdb/pdb_ldap.c:48: lber.h: No such file or directory passdb/pdb_ldap.c:49: ldap.h: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 So does anyone know what I should try next to be able to compile samba --with-ldapsam on openbsd 3.2?

[Samba] Binary filenames in smbstatus output? (Samba 2.2.5)
Have any of you seen behavior like this before? We are currently having problems with our Samba server coming up telling a lot of our users that Word files "are locked for editing." and will only let users open them Read Only. We are running Samba 2.2.5 from standard RedHat 7.2 RPMS, on i386 RedHat 7.2, Kernel 2.4.9-34smp. Im putting this to the list as a symptom to see if anyone has ever seen similar behavior. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. The server is in production and so we are a little apprehensive of changing versions unless we can be at least fairly certain the change will be painless and going to fix our problem. Partial output of smbstatus' locked files section shows: 13848 DENY_NONE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 10:17:26 2003 13848 DENY_WRITE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 10:17:26 2003 11705 DENY_NONE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 09:59:57 2003 11705 DENY_WRITE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 09:59:57 2003 29695 DENY_NONE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 08:11:32 2003 29695 DENY_WRITE 0x20189 RDONLY NONE z~ Tue Jul 15 08:11:32 2003 16678 DENY_NONE 0x1 RDONLY EXCLUSIVE+BATCH /data/ep/wq/windat/windat/CONFIGUR.DAT Tue Jul 15 10:36:44 2003 The file named z~ worries me.there are also entries like %, ~ and 8. Being that it is not showing path information it seems odd, can anyone explain this behavior? I can produce my smb.conf and high level debug output offlist if anyone thinks they can help.

I think I may have sent this to the wrong list originally. Can anyone provide some assistance? I have complied the version Samba 3.0.0beta3 on an HP-UX 11.11 machine.
