RE: [Samba] How can Windows 2000 mount a share as a service?
Only applications specifically written as services can be used as services. What you need to do is make a mapping in IIS to a virtual folder Select the web you are working on Right click - Create new virtual directory Up comes a wizard In that wizard name your new virtual directory [content] or whatever, click next The next dialog will ask for the path: \\marvin\share Uncheck the box below that says Always use the authenticated user's Credentials Enter a username and password, click next Set the attributes: Read Clear: Run scripts Execute Write Browse Click next Now click finish. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Malcolm Baldridge Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 5:12 PM To: SAMBA Subject: [Samba] How can Windows 2000 mount a share as a service? I've asked every M$ expert I know, trolled through M$ TechNet, experimented with SRVANY/INSTSRV login scripts which hard-code username/passwords to login to a Samba 2.2.8a SMB server. I've experiment with and without the Allow service to interact with Desktop switch turned on. I am stuck. :( I can find no way to mount a share as a service, so that IIS can serve web-pages from a shared content directed located on a network drive. When I run my login script when I'm logged in as the Administrator or another user, the script works fine. The share's mounted and available as the specified drive letter specified in the script. I'm using just the standard net use as follows: net use z: \\192.168.0.1\Web mypassword /user:webuser I've fiddled with adding a domain name to the user, to no avail. I've experimented with using the samba server's Netbios name as well as DNS name, to no avail. The script only seems to work when SOMEONE is logged into the machine. When it's run as a service, no dice. It just fails with a single digit error code (5, I think). The error is opaque and non-descriptive. It's as if SMB mounting was specifically prohibited by the OS at some internal bowel juncture. This is insane. Surely, people running web-server clusters behind load balancers don't manually synchronise their content! My web application accepts user-uploaded files, so I can't use the manual resync method anyway. The upload area needs to be shared by all web-server members. There must be a solution for this very common requirement. I don't want or need a SAN block-device-level solution, I want a file-level solution. If anyone can share some ideas or experise, I would be very grateful. This must be a solved problem somewhere. =MB= -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Wishlist for v4.0 Integration / Setup of samba.
Is there maybe a way to consolidate (At the developer level) all of the tools and methods into one concise list. samba is not really tightly integrated with the OS, Is there maybe a way to re-organise the way samba works? maybe to make it completely emulate the way it works on the windows command line? for example make everything integrated into the net command. net use (file system mounting) net passwd net start,stop,restart [service] would trigger the /etc/rc.d/[service] script. net print [cups-samba] so on and so forth. there is an easier way. We should also maybe invest some time into making a better (wizard) routine for configuring samba, joining it to the domain, bringing it up as an ads/pdc/bdc machine. There should also be a way to configure ldap and samba to work together, this manual config-shit is useless. A good method might be to detect the current network setup and make the appropriate changes and settings. There should also be a net share command to quickly export trees from the commandline. the tool should work on the commandline first, then X. not all servers have an X server running. Well, hope I could help and bring a little insight into the group. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba Problems with Authentication against a 2K3 ADS Server
Ok, here's the problem now.. I have Two unix boxes and Four Windows Servers here. The two unix boxes marvin and muse are running rhes 3 and suse 9.1 stock. Marvin uses the smbpasswd file to authenticate; I just have to sync the passwords manually. I am trying to setup muse using winbind and samba 3.0.2a The problem is that the XP machines on the network don't want to talk to muse, I get an Access Denied message of sorts preceeded by a logon request dialog. The samba/log.smbd gives this explanation: [2004/06/28 23:40:56, 0] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_info3(1120) make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed! Very useful; nothing on google is useful either.. Here's my smb.conf: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = BRAINDONORS realm = BRAINDONORS.NET server string = Music / CDImage Server security = ADS auth methods = winbind local master = No wins server = zaphod.braindonors.net ldap suffix = dc=braindonors,dc=net ldap ssl = no idmap uid = 1-2 idmap gid = 1-2 winbind enable local accounts = No [music-mp3] comment = MP3 Format Music Files path = /music/mp3 read only = No [music-mp3-singles] comment = Singles and One tracks path = /music/singles/mp3 veto files = /.AppleDouble/.bin/.AppleDesktop/Network Trash Folder/._* -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
