Re: [Samba] Can only see files one level deep
I solved it! (For me). Pulled from here. http://www.macwindows.com/snowleopard-filesharing.html#050310a The veto files line for my share in /etc/samba/smb.conf includes the file .DS_Store. For Mac clients accessing the share using SMB instead of AFP, the .DS_Store file needs to be accessible and writable, otherwise the Finder will hang trying to create it. Hope this helps! I commented out the following line in my smb.conf: #veto files = /.DS_Store/._.*/DesktopFolderDB/Network Trash Folder/resource.frk/TheFindByContentFolder/TheVolumeSettingsFolder/ And now it works. The above line used to not be an issue, but is now! Either way, solved for me. D On 2010-06-18, at 7:54 AM, William P.N.

[Samba] valid users VS users in conf
Hi there, Samba 3.0.33-3.7.el5 Centos 5.3 For some time now I have been using the following on my shares: valid users = @group For some reason, my samba just up and crapped out over the weekend... When trying to mount the drive (Win XP), it just keeps asking for the credentials. When trying from OS X, I get "A volume failed to mount" error. When attempting with the smbclient I get: tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED I was watching my log file with a tail -f and NOTHING is logged there when it fails. I did some searching around and some posts for similar issues people suggest using: users = @group for the shares. I tried that and it started working again. There were no updates done to the system, and my system has been working with the "valid users = @group" for years. Why would this happen? Is there any disadvantage or security concern by using the "users = @group" style? Ideas?

[Samba] users home folders not accessable - access denied
I apologize in advance if this is a double post. I had sent my last one from my phone and i never saw it show up on here, so thought something may have went haywire there. Anyways onto the issues: System: CentOS 5.3 samba-3.0.33-3.7.el5 samba-client-3.0.33-3.7.el5 samba-common-3.0.33-3.7.el5 I have a samba server that was running great. I have my /home mounted on a raid 1 drive. In my fstab it had: /dev/md0/home ext3defaults,acl 1 2 Now i was running out of room, so i added another hard drive. As the original system that was configured did not use LVM, I had to create a new mount point. So I formatted the new drive with ext3, and was going to split my samba into two drives.. the raided drives would contain all my main samba shares, and my home folders would just be on the new single drive (space constrictions in the chassis, otherwise i would have done it as raid 1 as well). So I modified my fstab to be: /dev/md0/shares ext3 defaults,acl1 2 /dev/sdc1 /home ext3 defaults,acl1 2 Now as you can see, the raid 1 drives (my original /home) has been moved to /shares and my new drive is now /home. All the home directories were moved to the new drive (sdc1). I can access the data, write to it, delete, etc. So all seems fine from the CLI. For all intents and purposes, the new drive is there, mounting at boot, and able to be used. Now when i try to access all my shares, my main shares from the / shares drive work like a charm. But when a user tries to access their private folder (/home/username), they get the error: \\server\username is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the system administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network name cannot be found. Now when browsing the network, I can see that share there. When I look in my smbd.log file I see: smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(1003) '/home/username' does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [username] Error was Permission denied Just to see if i can get more info, I tried mapping the drive net use h: \\server\username System error 53 has occurred.

Well, I got all my directories moved around. I actually ended up remounting the drive with the user folders back at /home, and mounted my actual share folders back at /share. Both were always in seperate drives. All my permissions were actually managed from bash scripts, so it was super easy to reset and move my main samba shares. I then swapped the user home folders back using the usermod (-d) tool. I changed back my smb.conf back to my original settings. I thought that since my home folders were back where they always were, and that my smb.conf was back to original - it would all work. So as it stands, all my defined shares work great, but my user home folders have the network path not found error when trying to access or map the drive. So ideas in this issue?

[Samba] Changing users home directory location
Hi there, I have a pretty stock samba setup, but had been getting low on drive space. I dropped in another hard drive, and added it as the mount point /home/users. I then moved all my user folders into the /home/users folder (effectively moving them to another hard drive), and left my existing public samba shares where they were /home/samba/share. I didn't want to have to much with my ACL's, etc. I then used the usermod tool to update all the users home directory. # usermod -d /home/users/username username now my smb.conf currently has (home directory related - rest trimmed): logon home = \\%L\%U [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No Now after restarting smb, and trying to access my mapped drives \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\username They are not accessible. How does samba determine that path? I also tried making my homes share like: [homes] comment = Home Directories path = /home/users valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No But again, no go. So I am assuming there must be another setting Then I tried: [homes] comment = Home Directories path = /home/users/%u valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No and [homes] comment = Home Directories path = /home/users/%U valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No Any pointers here?

[Samba] samba auth against imap?
I had a VP in our company ask today if it was possible to use the same id's and passwords as our mail server. Now if it was LDA based, no problem. But I was just curious if there was some sort of authentication method to authenticate samba shares against an IMAP server? I have seen a few other pieces of software use imap authentication. I have security concerns over this method, but just wanted to see if it was even possible. I have been google searching, but no real answers yet.

[Samba] push install software with samba
Godo day all, I used to have a book mark for an open source piece of software that could be used in conjunction with samba to push install software (that supported unattended installs) and windows updates (I think). I for the life of me can not remember what it is called. Does anyone have a URL or two for something like this to work with samba? Thanks!

[Samba] access denied & Sid does not start with 'S-'.
Hi there. For some reason I am getting permission denied errors on a new samba server. I can add machines to the domain, I can login with any user id's and so on as well. But when I try connecting to a public share, or the users home directory, I get a user denied error. "\\Fileserver\user is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource.

[Samba] pdc login issues with Vista
Hi there, I just setup a Centos 5 server running samba 3.0.23c (as provided by upstream via YUM). And it is Vista Business edition. Now I am looking for a little clarification on this setup. I have been reading on google and the list archives, about NTLMv2 auth and the fact you need to make an edit with the secpol.msc. I did complete that. I also read that I would need to add (which I have made note can be removed as of samba 3.0.25) "host msdfs = no" to my smb.conf - which i also did in the global section. Now I have added the machine to the domain, without issue (according to Vista), but when I try to log in (with a domain user), I get the error (from Vista): "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request." I again searched google for this error with regards to Samba and found nothing. Upon looking in the samba log files, I found nothing in my /var/log/samba/*.logs of error like. It all seemed like pretty standard start up diolog. So as a test I logged into the vista box with a local user, and mapped a drive. That seemed to work without issue. I threw on a few folders and text files. Again no issues. Here is my smb.conf for reference: [global] ### GENERAL ## domain logons = yes domain master = Yes netbios name = JKA os level = 255 preferred master = yes security = user wins support = no workgroup = JKA ## SECURITY ## # disable LM authentication lanman auth = no lm announce = no # increase the minimum protocol # This disables win9x to win me min protocol = NT1 # Allow these IP Addresses to connect hosts allow = 10.0.0.0/24 127.0.0.1 # Anything else not allowed is, by default, rejected hosts deny = ALL ## LOGGING ## debug timestamp = yes log file = /var/log/samba/%U-%m.log log level = 2 max log size = 9216 ## LOGON ## ## DK ## # a user logon script logon script = %U.bat # Logon path used to enable roaming profiles # Comment out the blank one and uncomment the other to enable #logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon path = logon drive = H: logon home = \\%L\home\%U ## FILE LOCKING ## ## DK ## # See: # http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch05_05.html veto oplock files = /*.doc/*.xls/*.mdb/ ## VISTA HACKS ## ### DK ## # Can be removed as of samba 3.0.25 host msdfs = no [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /home/samba/netlogon locking = No ;[profiles] ;comment = Profile Share ;path = /home/samba/profiles ;read only = No ;profile acls = Yes ;create mode = 0600 ;directory mode = 0700 ;browseable = No [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = no browseable = no create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 [Public] path = /home/shares/public read only = No comment = Public Folders public = yes writeable = yes # END SMB.CONF Can anyone see anything funny about my conf?
