[Samba] My smb.conf file works on Fedora 11, but not Fedora 16
I setup a new box with Fedora 16. I have Firewall and SELinux disabled. I can ping the IP and host name from the outside. I copied the smb.conf file from a similar box that was running Fedora 11 to my new box. When I try to browse the shares on the new box, I keep getting rejected cannot browse the shares. This happens whether I browse from a Windows or Linux system. What am I doing wrong? Here is the smb.conf file that was working in Fedora 11, but not Fedora 16. [global] workgroup = AUSTIN server string = SQABVT Samba Server log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 1 security = share socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 local master = yes os level = 1 domain master = no preferred master = yes dns proxy = no password level = 8 username level = 8 wins support = yes [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = yes writable = yes [automation_logs] comment = Logs directory path = /home/sqa/bvt.new/logs browseable = yes writeable = no guest ok = yes The smbd.log file on the Fedora 16 server keeps spitting out the same message, which I don't understand - [2011/12/20 12:49:41.855121, 0] smbd/server.c:1101(main) standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option.

[Samba] large smb.conf file
I have about 5000 distinct shares defined in my smb.conf file. As you can imagine it's quite large. Everyone once in awhile all the smbd daemons ( in top ) go to a run state and pretty much bring the system to a halt. The system is WAY oversized. 99.999% of the day samba runs fine. We _THINK_ we've narrowed down the times when the smbd processes go crazy to a time when we're updating the smb.conf file. Does this sound reasonable? Is there a better way to create the neccessary shares?

Re: [Samba] large smb.conf file
I don't personally know of a way myself, but I think it would be of great value to be able to remove the share definition from the main smb.conf file, and maintain them in some sort of database. It would at the very least minimize the startup time in reading the configuration file but perhaps complicate smbd process startups by requiring a db connection of some sort; this is admittedly above and beyond my abilities to start/debug/design/debate, so I thought I might just pass on the idea to the list.

The problem is that you have a bunch of smbd processes that notice the mtime on the configuration file changed and so decide to reparse the entire file.

Re: [Samba] large smb.conf file
As a side note, the server is a SunFire E6900 with 8 dual core ultra IV procs and 32gigs of memory. With 300 smbd processes the issue can send load avg's up to around 100 and we see small issues with people who are trying to log into the domain at the same time. With 600 smbd processes running then the issue is obviously compounded. During the rest of the time, the server doesn't even really feel samba. We had not tried to use the copy share feature as suggested but will try that.

Tanks to a member of this list, I was able to solve my problem. He told me that if my samba installation is a new one, I must create the config file. And he was right. I then copied the samba config file sample given in samba sources to /usr/local/samba/lib, I edited it... And that's it! I could not know this because this is the first time I build samba sources.

If you don't understand basic Unix/Linux system administration and the basic Unix/Linux system commands (including find, locate and their ilk, which you obviously don't) and are running Red Hat, stick to rpms and srpms which will put everything in the correct Red Hat places.

[Samba] SIMPLE smb.conf file
Hi, I have been trying to get SWAT to work so I can configure it using a GUI. But as you can see on my last message, no luck. I have tryed what seems like hundreds of different configuration schemes using smb.conf and cannot seem to get things right. Here is the situation : Local network, internet on a router/firewall. two winXP machines, two win98 machines. No domain authentication, simple windows logons. Simple shares with share based authentication. The machine i'm installing Samba on is a Red Hat 9 machine. I want to set up samba so it will ask me for username/password on each individual share, or simply make the whole shares scheme pulic. I've tried to make shares public, and no matter what I do I always get the same error : \\Serviteur is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact.. blah blah. The network path was not found. Even what I try to access my linux machine using SAMBA from itself I get a similar error. ( I can access the WinXP shares from Linux ) Here is my smb.conf : [global] workgroup = 5330-1 netbios name = Serviteur server string = Samba %V encrypt passwords = yes update encrypted = yes obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password %n\n *passwd:*all*:authentication*tokens*updated*succesfully* unix password sync = yes log level = 9 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 0 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RECVBUF = 8192 SO_SNDBUF = 8192 os level = 33 domain master = No dns proxy = No guest account = guest printing = cups wins support = yes security = share [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = no create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 browseable = Yes [webroot] comment = apache webroot path = /var/www/html public = yes writeable = yes browseable = Yes create mask = 0777 THANKS !

Re: [Samba] SIMPLE smb.conf file
Second use one subject ! In your conf is more errors. First if you use samba and not set guest acces shares is always authenticate! If need create public free acces to shares set security to user and on shares that maybe public add guest ok = yes. But then owner of all in this share is guest user set in your guest account to guest (must exist on linux). All new files on this share will be created as guest and blabla... In global yuo set this to no ! update encrypted = yes obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes unix password sync = yes If create any smbuser with smbpasswd remove it if need public guest share.

[Samba] my smb.conf file
ok here is my smb.conf file.. its basically the default for RH8 with a few additions like writable = yes for users to be able to write to their directories and such.. this .conf file works fine in XP, its just Windows Millennium I am having problems with.. Windows Me keeps prompting for a password at: //TopGun/:IPC$ TopGun is my netbiosname.. I have no clue what IPC$ is, encrypt passwords =yes but I am going to try that windows 98 hack (should work for windows Me as well I hope) to see if that fixes the problem.. I sure hope so.. samba in my case, is being used with my apache 2.0 webserver so that local users on the LAN can upload their websites to their webpage without having to use FTP.. my website is at: http://www.tcoburn.com and each of my users have a website as tcoburn.org/~username. I just want this to work so my users can upload their websites to their /home/username/public_html directories rather they are using WIndows Me, or Windows XP thats all I'm trying to do.. I am using a Linksys router using DHCP and I have a static IP that tcoburn.com points to. all this works fine in XP with this smb.conf file, just windows Me I'm having a problem with smbpasswd users and passwords are created and work fine in XP.. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Even at log level 1 it routinely exceeds 5 Meg. a day and then is renamed log.smbd.old and a new log.smbd is created. NO MATTER WHAT I SET max log size equal to! Be it a large value like 30 which is what I want, or 0 for infinite, its just always seems to be ignored and the default 5000 is always in effect. Is anybody else experiencing this? I have a feeling it has to do with the sheer load this server experiences and/or the complexity of the smb.conf file although its really not THAT complex. I'm doing the dual personality thing with include = /usr/local/samba/lib/%L.smb.conf and make a lot of use of %U and %G and a bit of %S and some force user and some force group and root prexec and root prexec close but REALLY NOTHING THAT complicated and EVERYTHING works perfectly except for the max log size setting. This used to happen when I used to build Samba with gcc on Solaris and it still happens although now I use Sun's Forte compiler. I've been annoyed by this version after version of Samba and everytime I upgrade I always eagerly check if my log files will grow beyond 5 Meg and they never do. I just upgraded to 2.2.7 last week and am still experiencing this problem so I've decided to finally post about it.
