[Samba] Samba 34 + LDAP = hang?
Hi, I tried updating Samba to 3.4 (from 3.3) as libsmbclient uses it and that pulls in talloc which conflicts with 3.3.. Unfortunately when I tried it, it hung when I tried to use the ldap passdb backend. I could not really get any useful debugging out of it :( The stack trace is junk (even after enabling max debug) and running with.. sudo /usr/local/sbin/smbd -d 10 -F -S Showed stuff but nothing related to LDAP (except mentioning the line in the config) and it still hung after saying it was going to daemonise itself. It hung not using any CPU but it hadn't yet opened any TCP listen sockets - however it did have a socket to the LDAP server open. Does anyone actually use this combination on FreeBSD? I have had various annoying issues with LDAP (eg slapd crashing when it's not shut down cleanly, various frustrations getting it setup etc) but I haven't come across this bug before. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from. -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Asside from trying to get that special magic sauce working, your best bet will be to either disable oplocks entirely (not a bad idea overall) *or* mount the smb/cifs file system on the unix side and modify through Samba.

[Samba] Samba PDC roaming profiles problem
I am having issues with my roaming profiles setup (small home network) On login I get errors like.. Windows cannot copy the file \\midget\profiles\darius\Application Data\Ventrilo to location C:\Documents and Settings\darius\Application Data\Ventrilo. Possible causes include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied. On logout I have seen errors like the following.. Windows cannot copy file C:\Documents and Settings\darius\Recent\Temp (2).lnk to location \\midget\profiles\darius\Recent\Temp (2).lnk. Possible cases of this error include network problems or insufficient access rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - Cannot create a file when that file already exists. Although I suspect that is from when I rsync'd my profile to save me losing some data. (I didn't specify --delete) If I login as the machine admin I can remove the profile from it and then login to the domain successfully. This is a bit of a drag (I have to reboot before Windows will try re-reading the profile from the network, plus the time taken to delete and re-copy the profile) I believe this corresponds with a Samba upgrade (to 3.0.23d) , however I did also change my main workstation at around the same time so isolating the source of the problem is difficult :( I've attached my smb.conf and I would attach a log file but I am not sure what a good debug level to use to get enough but not too much information. Note that originally profiles were stored in home directories but I read on the Samba Wiki this is not a good idea, however moving them to a separate share had no effect on the problem. Authentication is done via OpenLDAP and the whole lot runs on a FreeBSD 6.x system. (All built from ports).

I tried a quick test with a crash box and Samba 3.0.0 and it seemed to work fine. I used XP Pro for the test as the person with Win2K pro is only in the office once a week (hence the need for offline stuff :). Hopefully I can upgrade our main file server without too much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I also found that the default settings on 3.0.1 are nt acl support = yes, you would need to change that to no. Hmm OK.

[Samba] Can't use offline files in Windows 2000 properly
Hi, I have Samba 2.2.3a running on a FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE system and a Windows 2000 Pro laptop. I am trying to use the offline files feature in windows to keep offline copies of some documents but it doesn't appear to play nicely with Samba :( I setup some documents to sync and it appears to copy them over, and says it was successful, but after I go offline they are 0 bytes long and in the magic offline folder they are shown as local copy incomplete. I read http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/msg75181.html but unfortunately I can't use an ACL file system (I don't really want to upgrade to FreeBSD 5.x for our main file server at this point :) Updating Samba 3 is probably an option if it will work. I can provide debugging logs, and test patches etc if anyone is interested in helping. FWIW the sync works fine against Win98SE machines so hopefully it will not be necessary to implement ACL stuff (pie in the sky dream? :) Thanks in advance (and for a most useful piece of software) -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from. -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 9A8C 569F 685A D928 5140 AE4B 319B 41F4 5D17 FDD5 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
