[Fwd: Re: [Samba] Need Samba 3.0.0 help] More info...
Well folks this is getting irritating. When we map our Solaris Home directory to a network drive on the NT side of life then attempt to "make a new folder" it actually does make the new folder in the home directory, but it just hangs up on the Windows side. Any ideas why we don't get a return response? Another thing is that if we select a ".txt" file to view, the log files on samba will state that it has granted the OPLOCK for the file, thne it states that it has it opened for viewing. However, the same thing happens, it goes out into never never land. Clues are appreciated!? -- -- Original Message ------ Subject: Re: [Samba] Need Samba 3.0.0 help From:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Date:Mon, April 5, 2004 10:56 am To: "Paul Gienger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Paul et all, I tried to add the webserver to see if this would clear up the problem I was having with it seeming to hang from the NT machines, but it is still not working.

Re: [Samba] Need Samba 3.0.0 help
You can always install a basic web server on the samba box to give a quick 'No' rather than waiting for windows to time out waiting. Watch the logs and you'll see lots of 404's.

Jason, I do not have access to all the NT or XP machines that connect and map drives. We are not the administrators. I did turn it off on one of the XP's that we have. There was no change.

[Samba] Need Samba 3.0.0 help
Hello all I need help and I'm just about at my wits end. First let me state that I can not give logfiles in email since the Samba servers are on the secure side of my world and contain sensitive information. If by my stating my problem, I am hoping that someone will point me in certain directions that I have not tried. We have two samba servers on our site. Both are running Samba 3.0.0. Sun Server using Solaris 9 Kernel 112233-11. First one is authenticating to a NT PDC. NT domain. We have NT's that map their drives to this and it works just fineUsers could not be happier. It uses a VERY simple smb.conf file. The shares are either home or data directories that are automounted via NIS automounts on our Sun or SGI servers . Shares to our servers are functional. Second one is authenticating to a Windows 2K Server. Windows 2K domain. We have NT's and W2K's and XP's This does not work well. It did but for some reason it just stopped working. We have no clue what the problem is, but have to pinpoint the problem. We work with various domains on our site and we do not have administrator to the windows desktops. We do have the Administrator rights on the Windows 2K server. Not that this helpsI have no clue what I am doing on the Windows side. We use the SAME smb.conf file with a few changes. The workgroup = 2Kdomain, the netbios name is different. Both servers were setup for: [global] workgroup = encrypted passwords = yes update encrytped = yes password server = passwd chat debug = yes log level = 5 log file = /var/adm/samba.log name resolve order = host deadtime = 10 [homes] path = /home/%u read only = No browseable = No All other shares just like homes...very simple. What happens is that we start the #2 Samba server... smbd and nmbd start All ok...so far On the windows side in a Command window do a # net view \\two-samba-server... see shares. there is hope! Map network drive from NT or XP... All ok so far drill down to any directory it hangs on the windows side. If I try to create a new folder... it hangs on the windows side. If you look at the Home directory on the Unix side, it created the directory. You can kill the smbd process for the user on the unix server and it will release the process from the Windows box but you then have to Disconnect the network drive and remap it. Not that you would want to since it does not work. I got the bright idea today to join the samba server to the domain. So I did that by issuing the command: net join -w 2Kdomain -U Administrator It asked for the password..I put it in It stated: Joined domain 2Kdomain This did not work either... So that is about itJust a note about the LOG files Everytime I drill down in the directories, the logfile lists all the files of that directory. It even states that I was trying to open a .txt file even though it didn't open. Any ideas? I have customers that are developing in the Win2K domain...their customers are rather ticked...so I have to resolve this. Thanks for any assistance...
