[Samba] cleaning messages.tdb
I have a drive almost full because of the messages.tdb problem with print queue. I will upgrade samba, but , how can I clean it quick ? I searched the mailing list archives and I didn't find it. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

They get regenerated. YMMV. It can't hurt to do the same with the one messages.tdb file (or can it?) --Tonni -- mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billy.demon.nl They love us, don't they, They feed us, won't they ... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

It can't hurt to do the same with the one messages.tdb file (or can it?) It should be noted however that you don't want to delete absolutely all the tdb files. There are a few notable exceptions in every domain style installation such as secrets.tdb and more files such as group_mapping.tdb and the passwd file (which I don't know the name of) if you're using tdbsam. I would gather that the printer driver assignments are in a tdb file too but I can't say for sure which of the many printer-related looking files they are in. -- Paul GiengerOffice: 701-281-1884 Applied Engineering Inc.

I always appreciate your comments, though you might not believe it :) Are you family to Pascal Gienger,m German national? I owe him too, as I do many others. On my RHAS3 rigs, using Jerry's srpms, secrets.tdb goes in to /etc/samba, not Red Hat's /var/lib/samba with the rest of the .tbs. All my group mappings are in LDAP (ldapsam backend). The printer driver .tdbs Samba regenerates, the printer (only one on my test rig) keeps on working. I assume Samba gets its info from smb.conf. As the HOWTO doco says, *never* test on a live system (well, didn't I already know that), always test on a test network.
