RE: [Samba] Use Microsoft shared fax printer?
Jim: 1. The faxes are going to be created by code running on a Linux server. 2. The faxes will be sent from a machine running Windows 2003 SBS server with the Microsoft Shared Fax Service. 3. Store and forward is best. I would just like to queue them into the Shared Fax Queue on the Microsoft server. Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (214)986-3533, www.JAMMConsulting.com FREE!

[Samba] Batch print office documents?
Hello: I need to build a system like this for a client: I will have a Linux server in a data room. It will have a web interface where the users may upload files. The files may be: Word, Excel, PDF, tif files, etc. Now, using the web interface, they should be able to brig up a list of files, select a set to print and send them to a local printer that is running as a shared printer on a Windows network. The client does not want to change their network to Linux nor do they want to give up the ability to use Office documents. I do not want to learn how to create this system on Windows. I would much rather run Linux on the server. Is is possible to batch print a set of files (including Office files, pdfs, and images) to a Windows printer using Samba?

RE: [Samba] Use Microsoft shared fax printer?
Shaun: Correct me if I am wrong, but I think you are suggesting using HylaFAX on the Linux server and then have the Windows PCs use it. What I am trying to do is to have the Linux server send faxes using the Windows Machine as a Fax Server. Is that possible? It will be *much* harder to convince the client that they now have to change their fax server to Linux. Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (214)986-3533, www.JAMMConsulting.com FREE!

[Samba] Permission problems writing to Share from SQL Agent
Hello: I have a client that is using MS SQL Server in a Windows 2003 server. They have a Linux machine (Fedora Core 3) that is acting as a file server using Samba. We want to write backups from the SQL Agent for SQL Server to one of the shares on the Samba server. If I set the share to allow guest access, the SQL Agent can write the backups just fine using \\Shares\SQLBackups\pubs.bak but, if I require a user name and password, it gives me permission denied (Which I expect because I don't know how to give it the user name and password to use). I tried setting SQL Agent to use the Administrator account and then mounted the share to Y: using the user name and password I assigned, but when I try backing up to Y:, I get that it could not find y:\pubs.bak Has anyone set up SQL Agent to write to a Samba share before? Where/how do I give it the user name and password to use? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, JAMM Consulting, (972)612-6056, www.JAMMConsulting.com FREE!

To fix 1: Make sure there is a machine account for the XP box on the samba server. Do: adduser machine$ smbpasswd -a -m machine Also, you may want to add guest ok=no and make sure the user you're logging in to the XP box as exists as a samba user. To fix 2: Even though you've got printcap name = /etc/printcap I'm pretty sure that Fedora uses cups. If not, then I'm giving you incorrect advice, but that error exists only under cups, AFAIK. uncomment the line (or add it if it's not there) application/octet-stream in your mime.types in your cups config directory (usually /etc/cups/mime.types) JSYK: If you fix the second problem, the XP box will print fine, even with the access denied message.

RE: [Samba] Samba does not work over masquerade
David: Its not a samba problem. NetbiosDGM needs to be proxies. If you can use ipfilter, look at the netbios proxy. I believe port 137 needs to be proxied as well. The netbiosdgm proxy in ipfilter changes part of the payload in the netbios dgm packet to work with NAT. I am not sure what you are talking about. This is well beyond my current understanding.

[Samba] Problem setting up stunnel

[Samba] Trying to set-up Stunnel for samba
Hello: I am trying to set-up an stunnel for samba. On my Linux server, I have samba set-up and working in non-ssl mode. I set up a file share called Documents. Then, I ran an stunnel on the command line to allow me to tunnel thru it. Here is what I did: /usr/sbin/stunnel -D 7 -f 2139 -r 139 Then, on my client (A Windows 2000 machine), I did the following: 1. Created a directory c:\bin 2. Downloaded the file http://www.kuix.de/ssl/stunnel-3.11-kai-gui-winexe.zip and extracted it. 3. I then went to a command line, changed to the c:\bin directory and typed this command: stunnel.exe -c -d 127.0.0.2:139 -n smb -r 204.130.252.205:2139 I then went to windows explorer and tried to add a network place with the location \\127.0.0.2\Documents but when it tries to connect, I get a pop-up that says the network path was not found. The command line on my Windows 2000 box has this message: LOG5[796:924]: 204.130.252.205.2139 connected from 192.168.1.3:1206 LOG3[796:924]: remote connect: Unknown error (10060) There are no messages on the command line on the Linux box, so it seems that I was not able to connect to it. This is strange since I know that it is not a firewall issue. If I compile samba with the --with-ssl option, everything works fine. Any ideas?

RE: [Samba] Problem linking with SSL on RedHat 7.2
Urban: Are you sure you want SSL? As I understand, it is useless with windows clients as they don't support it. I am sure that we want to use SSL. We want to be able to access our repositories remotely, but do not want to have the data compromised. Regarding the windows clients, they can support it using an stunnel wrapper, which is what we are going to do. No idea why it doesn't build, perhaps you should use the openssl packages that came with RH7.2. Here is what I did: make clean ./configure --with-ssl --with-sslinc=/usr/include/openssl make I still get these messages: Linking bin/smbd smbd/ssl.o: In function `sslutil_init': smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x23f): undefined reference to `SSL_library_init' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x256): undefined reference to `RAND_egd' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x3ce): undefined reference to `SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x577): undefined reference to `SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa_callback' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [bin/smbd] Error 1 Any ideas?

[Samba] Problem linking with SSL on RedHat 7.2
Hello: I am trying to compile sambe with SSL on my RedHat 7.2 machine. The Redhat installation is a fresh install. Here is what I did: Made sure that samba was not previously installed by typing rpm -q samba cd /usr/local lynx ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/crypt/mirrors/ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/ssleay/SSLeay-0.9.0b.t ar.gz tar zxf SSLeay-0.9.0b.tar.gz cd SSLeay-0.9.0b vi Configure Made the first line look like this: #!/usr/bin/perl ./Configure linux-elf make make install cat /tmp/private.txt Now, I typed a bunch of random characters and hit Ctrl-D. /usr/local/ssl/bin/ssleay genrsa -rand /tmp/private.txt /dev/null rm -f /tmp/private.txt cd /usr/local lynx ftp://us1.samba.org/pub/samba/samba-latest.tar.gz tar zxf samba-latest.tar.gz cd samba-2.2.3a/source ./configure --with-ssl make When it is trying to link, I get these errors: Linking bin/smbd smbd/ssl.o: In function `sslutil_init': smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x23f): undefined reference to `SSL_library_init' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x256): undefined reference to `RAND_egd' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x3ce): undefined reference to `SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file' smbd/ssl.o(.text+0x577): undefined reference to `SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa_callback' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [bin/smbd] Error 1 Any ideas?
