[Samba] Mac OS X and Samba Shares
Dear list- On Mac OS X Samba clients (10.3, 10.4) I have recently experienced the following behaviour: users would not be able to write to assigned Samba shares UNLESS tha Global parameter "Max Disk Size = xx" is set in the Samba server's config file. I first discovered this issue while setting up a Linux server using the 2.4 kernel and version 3.0 of Samba. Without setting this, the Macs are not able to write to it since the share shows that 0 space is left on the share. Setting the parameter value to anything short of 1TB fixes the problem, but I cannot set it to anything larger than a single TB as the same problem will return. Additionally, I recently brought a OS X Server machine on line for a client (using the default settings) and things were going like gangbusters, for a while, then the same problem appeared on the OS X clients. I added the global parameter listed above and it sort of fixed the problem - users can write now but do not see correct disk size and space availability (because of the single TB parameter limitation). Does anyone on this list have any thoughts about this? Thank you in advance.

[Samba] nsswitch/winbindd_user.c:winbindd_getpwnam(161)
Dear List- This error is appearing in my log.winbindd log file. The full error is as follows: nsswitch/winbindd_user.c:winbindd_getpwnam(161) user 'RAID' does not exist nsswitch/winbindd_user.c:winbindd_getpwnam(161) user 'BAMBOO_LEAVES_SINGLE.TIF' does not exist To clarify, there is no user by those names (i.e. raid, BAMBOO_LEAVES_SINGLE.TIF) on our DC, but there are share names/filenames; the full name/s of the shares in question being Raid1 and Raid2, with the UNC path looking something like this: //myserver/raid1 //myserver/raid2 This error or some variation of it is appearing in the log file every 1 - 4 seconds, corresponding presumably with some sort of read/write I/O operation. The box is currently serving as a NAS in our production environment, and this box does undergoes very heavy IO. Previously, kerberos had failed due to a time drift on the NAS. That problem has since been corrected and Kerberos reports back as functioning correctly. Samba version: samba-3.0.14 Linux Kernel: kernel-2.4.27-2.0.00 OS: REdhat 9.0 Has anyone on this list ever experience an occurrence like this? Thanks in advance.

[Samba] REPOST: Simultaneous Share Access via NFS/SMB
Did not get a response so I am reposting. I have a share that has been exported via NFS as well as shared using Samba 3.0. On the Windows side, all authentication is currently done using Winbind and Active Directory. On the standalone Samba server (also authenticated using Windbind) where the exported NFS resides, I have the same local Unix user (identified by the same name and UID/GID) that I have on each Unix (Mac/Linux) host that needs to access the NFS export. I also have name mappings setup in my smb.conf file. Currently, unless the file/directory is explicitly owned by "xuser", the unix hosts are not able to access that resource. Other than name mappings, I am not quite sure how to allow access to my NFS clients wanting to access these network shares without changing ownership of the user/group to my "xuser" The goal is that the unix username will map transparently to a Windows User/Group, but I am not quite sure how to manage this. My questions are as follows: Must IDMAPing be the same on all unix hosts before this will work?; and/or Can this be easily solved using the "net groupmap" command utility? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration. jyana -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] REPOST: smbcacls question
Version 3.0.10 Yes, I am aware that the value for the debug flag is missing, but remember I only got the error output posted here because I had debug set to 5 or something higher (so the command I present here is not totally accurate). I have got the command working now so that it will display the ACLS. Have not tried to set/change anything as of yet, but will so so shortly. I think were I went wrong was my syntax with the SMB share. I probably was either not giving full UNC paths or leaving them out altogether, falling back on the UNIX style syntax instead (where UNC path names are not required). Not sure that I like this syntax, it is very kludgy and counter-intuitive to use. Thanks. Herb Lewis wrote: you don't say what version you are running so the syntax may be different than my version. type smbcacls --help to get syntax. There is definitely something wrong with your command as the -d option is used to set the debug level and takes a number for the arg. also you need a UNC share name and then the file name in the current versions. So for the current version to list the acls on file xxx at share named //server/share using the user administrator you would type smbcacls //server/share xxx -U administrator Jeff Yana wrote: Since I never received a reply, I am reposting this earlier post: I am trying to run the following command and keep getting the same error.
