[Samba] CIFS: mounting public/guest shares impossible? error: SessSetup = -13
hi, i've always been using mount -t smbfs and recently upgraded to mount.cifs because i have a very aggressive application which always killed the smb connection (getting timeouts, ...). my setup: * some passwordless public/guest shares * one admin share over a x-over link to be able to use the admin share i had to switch my server from security = share to security = user, otherwise i always got mount.cifs error -1, Operation not permitted. now that was weird, because it always worked with smbfs, although the man page states: parameter: admin user = jg This parameter will not work with the security = share in Samba 3.0. This is by design. = well, this parameter worked with smbfs, but not with cifs! now with security = user i can mount this admin share, but all the public/guest shares are not mountable with CIFS, only with SMBFS. here's a sample share: [disk1] path = /mnt/disk1 valid users = nobody ftp *guest read only = Yes guest ok = Yes guest only = Yes hide unreadable = Yes hide special files = Yes invalid users = root admin @wheel veto files = /*root*/ browsable = Yes i tried to mount the public share with many different settings regarding user=, guest, sec=, but i only get: CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -13 CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13 i also tried to disable PacketSigningEnabled, nothing helps. with sec=none, dmesg tells me that it is an unknown mount option. is there no way to perform a null session? i have configured the smb.conf global settings like this: encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = smbpasswd:/etc/samba/private/smbpasswd username map = /etc/samba/smbusers the smbpasswd contains a nobody user with no password and my admin user. cat /etc/samba/smbusers: root = administrator admin root nobody = guest pcguest smbguest both client and server are samba v3.0.21b. kernel version is 2.6.15.1 on both sides. for the windows clients i'm using the workaround 'net use \\IP\share /USER:' to be able to access the shares. thanks for any enlightenment :) JG -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] samba = 3.0.6 connection timeouts
and just happenend again while streaming a video. crap. now, security or no working samba? *gg* ok, talking to myself again... i've now patched samba 3.0.5 with the DoS-patch and i'm using 3.0.5 *atm*. v3.0.6 and 3.0.7 just don't work here (hope 3.0.5 doesn't break compatibility with xp sp2 clients...)

[Samba] samba = 3.0.6 connection timeouts
hi, i get connection timeouts, so my samba connection just hangs. i have to remount (after lazy umount) the share to make it work again. the problem seems to arise after some traffic, but at the moment i was only listening to mp3s over the share when it occured again. dmesg output: smb_add_request: request [c3d1c0e0, mid=59360] timed out! smb_add_request: request [c3d1c1e0, mid=59361] timed out! smb_add_request: request [c3d1c0e0, mid=59362] timed out! smb_add_request: request [c3d1c0e0, mid=59363] timed out! [...] smb_file_read: path/file validation failed, error=4294967291 smb_lookup: find //mnt failed, error=-512 on the server side with smbstatus i see many requests for the mp3 file with the same pid. 8712 DENY_NONE 0x3 RDWR NONE //path/file Tue Sep 14 16:04:24 2004 i do not have problems with samba 3.0.5 or lower. the problem only occurs in 3.0.6 and also 3.0.7. client samba version is 3.0.6, client kernel: 2.6.7-gentoo-r11 server samba version is 3.0.7, server kernel: 2.6.6-mm3 how can i debug this? thx, JG pgpwG5UqCoT8i.pgp Description: PGP signature -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] Server requested LANMAN password but 'client use lanmanauth' is disabled
hi, You have been caught be one of the nasty side-effects of bug https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359 You will need to set 'client ntlmv2 auth = no', to re-enable the lanman support required for security=share. thank you very much!! it's working again. i had searched bugzilla for lanman OR auth and groups/google but didn't get this result.

[Samba] Server requested LANMAN password but 'client use lanmanauth' is disabled
hi, after upgrading my client to samba v3 rc2 i got some problems with mounting one share of my file server that needs a password. the previous version i was using (samba v3 beta3) works fine, but the rc2-version gives me an error without changing any config file. the server is samba v3 rc2, here's its smb.conf: [global] workgroup = x netbios name = x server string = Samba Server %v load printers = No show add printer wizard = No log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m log level = 1 hostname lookups = no security = share encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = smbpasswd username map = /etc/samba/smbusers interfaces = 10.xxx.xxx.xxx/24, 192.168.0.3/24 bind interfaces only = Yes local master = Yes os level = 65 domain master = no preferred master = yes dns proxy = no dos charset = ISO8859-15 unix charset = CP850 display charset = CP850 then i have defined some shares which are accessible by everyone without giving a password. but i got problems with one share, that is only for administration purpose over my internal interface: [x] comment = admin purpose hosts allow = 192.168.0.3 path = / read only = No create mask = 0640 directory mask = 0750 browsable = No valid users = root guest ok = No - mount -t smbfs -o rw,username=root //192.168.0.2/x /mnt/srv = Password: Server requested LANMAN password but 'client use lanman auth' is disabled 15640: tree connect failed: SUCCESS - 0 SMB connection failed - as a workaround i tried overriding the client use lanman auth, but it doesn't work, i can set it to yes, but testparm always shows no. i'm compiling samba with these parameters (gentoo ebuild): --with-expsam=xml, --with-acl-support --with-pam --with-pam_smbpass --enable-cups --without-ldap --without-ldapsam --without-ads --with-python=no --with-readline mounting the share from winxp works fine. what did change between beta3 and rc2 that i missed? kernel is 2.4.19 (gentoo) where i changed the value #define SMB_MAX_PACKET_SIZE 32768 to 65536 in smb.h if you need more info please tell me. thanks!
