[Samba] Samba share on a network shared with other people is randomly accessible
I installed Ubuntu Server 12.04, Samba, configured smb.conf, added a Samba user, and restarted Samba, to create a shared folder between my VM guest (Ubuntu), and my host (Windows 7). I also set my Network to Bridged instead of NAT. I was able to access \\UBUNTU for a while, but now I'm not able to, and it seems like randomly I'll be able to access \\UBUNTU for brief amounts of time. I'm new to Ubuntu, Samba, VMs, and networking in general, so I tried making the VM's IP static in hopes it would fix this to no avail. I'm at a complete loss and have worked on this for 3-4 days straight now. Here's what I appended to smb.conf: [my_share] path = /home/cory/apps read only = no admin users = cory I get the feeling this is a problem with the network changing when other people connect to it, and/or some Samba settings. Anyway, I'd love any help. I'm completely stumped as to why it'd work sometimes, and why it wouldn't work most of the time - without changing anything. Thanks! -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

[Samba] Samba share access problems
Hello, I have Samba 3.6.6 compiled and running under Ubuntu 10.04 server, I upgraded from 3.5.x and used the same share and configuration file. I have access problems from my Windows machines network path not found that I am trying to diagnose via smbclient from the server console: with smbclient... When I run, smblcient -L wen-chang\user1,.

[Samba] Samba Share Access Delay !
Hello Samba Users, I am using Samba for our project needs to share folders between a Windows Server 2003 machine and a RedHat Linux machine. I am facing issues with Samba shares (Samba Version 3.5.5 for RHEL 4 x86_64). The scenario is as below – The windows machine has a couple of shared folders, one of them being * ** C:\output* The windows shares are mounted onto corresponding mount points in linux and the same are exposed to the external world via samba running on the Linux machine. Now, the Windows machine kicks off a few jobs and as a part of those jobs it writes to the *output *shared folder. This write request is directed via Samba as the windows machine writes to \\Linux IPAddress\output. It has been observed consistently that accessing the shared folder from windows using UNC as \\LinuxIpAddress\output takes a very long time. Each access takes around 45 to 50 seconds ! though there are no network issues. Any directions on how to get around this problem ? Can it controlled via specific share level/global settings in smb.conf ? - Supriya -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

[Samba] [samba] Share authentication via AD
Hey folks, I've got a server setup that uses samba to join to the Windows 2k3 Active Directory. I've also created a shared folder on that server. The problem I'm experiencing is that I'm unable to authenticate to the share and thus browse it. The smb.conf file is: == [global] workgroup = domain server string = Samba Server Version %v security = ads local master = no preferred master = no load printers = yes cups options = raw idmap uid = 16777216-33554431 idmap gid = 16777216-33554431 template shell = /bin/bash winbind use default domain = yes password server = AD Servers realm = Kerberos Realm winbind nested groups = yes [rpms] Comment = SLES 10 RPMs path = /srv/www/htdocs/sles read only = No force group = bob force user = bob create mask = 0664 == As far as the basics, the server is joined successfully to the domain and I can browse to it from a windows box. I know that winbind is functioning as I can login (via local or ssh) using my Active Directory username and password. Any help in identifying problems with this configuration would be appreciated.

[Samba] Samba share of a NFS mount
I've got a NFS directory that's shared among my RHEL5 servers that I'd like to give access to a couple of Win2K servers, also. The easiest way to do so is to NFS mount the directory on my Samba server, and export the directory as a Samba share. It works. Kind of. But it redefines 'slow'. Copying the file from a normal Samba share takes under 10 seconds on a slow network: [c:\program files\resource kit]timethis.exe copy y:\testfile \tmp TimeThis : Command Line : copy y:\testfile \tmp TimeThis :Start Time : Mon May 04 09:24:30 2009 Y:\testfile = C:\tmp\testfile 1 file copied TimeThis : Command Line : copy y:\testfile \tmp TimeThis :Start Time : Mon May 04 09:24:30 2009 TimeThis : End Time : Mon May 04 09:24:39 2009 TimeThis : Elapsed Time : 00:00:09.123 But the same file from a NFS share exported via Samba takes five times as long: [c:\program files\resource kit]timethis.exe copy x:\tmp\testfile \tmp TimeThis : Command Line : copy x:\tmp\testfile \tmp TimeThis :Start Time : Mon May 04 09:22:07 2009 X:\tmp\testfile = C:\tmp\testfile 1 file copied TimeThis : Command Line : copy x:\tmp\testfile \tmp TimeThis :Start Time : Mon May 04 09:22:07 2009 TimeThis : End Time : Mon May 04 09:22:51 2009 TimeThis : Elapsed Time : 00:00:44.295 The NFS export looks like so: /var/ftp/pub192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,no_root_squash,async) and the smb.conf entry like this: [nfs] comment = tolstoy nfs directory path = /mnt/rhel read only = no browseable = yes public = yes create mask = 0666 Pointers in the right direction - or where to start looking - greatly appreciated.

It's been a while and I don't remember the specifics, but there are problems relating to locking when you do this. From memory it is OK as long as the samba server is the only NFS client accessing that share, but as soon as you have an NFS client accessing files that the samba clients have open things start to get messy. The proper way to do it is to run a samba server on the NFS server itself. *Michael Heydon - IT Administrator * micha...@jaswin.com.au mailto:micha...@jaswin.com.au -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Either mount your samba share like this % mount -t smbfs -o username=mediauser,password-med08cis //132.32.43.11/media /media or correct the path of your file object or maybe symlink the directory like this: % ln -s /home/josgreen/tools/jakarto-tomcat-5.0.19/webapps/associate/media /media This is by no means a samba problem :-) Please update your samba password now, because everybody on this list knows it now :-) -- Udo Rader bestsolution.at EDV Systemhaus GmbH http://www.bestsolution.at signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba share over a NFS mount (tuning)
Hi, I have a server that run OpenSuse 10.3, this server run VMware Server and host an OpenSuse 10.3 virtual machine witch is a Samba file server for my windows clients. The goal behind having a OpenSuse hosting an OpenSuse virtual machine is to separate the configurations from the data so I can easily change the configurations without affecting the data. The host keep all the data and share it with the virtual machine with NFS v3, so the virtual machine mount the NFS share and then a use Samba 3.0.26a to share the NFS mounted folder for my windows clients. The network I use between my host and my virtual machine is an Host-only virtual network. My virtual machine use a bridged network over a dedicated 1Gb Ethernet card to communicate with the windows clients. I reuse a smb.conf from the previous Samba (3.0.25b) file server witch was functioning with absolutely no problems. The problem I have with my new Samba file server is that my Vista client have a 20 to 60 second delay when they open a MS Office 2007 file. They have the same delay with MS Office 2003 and all the Office's file the Vista clients open with MS Office 2003 are read only. I think it is a file lock issue because went I disable the file lock at the NFS mount or in Samba smb.conf file. In my case, I just cannot disable file lock in my production environment.

[Samba] samba share setup witn nt acl permissions
Hi all, I am trying to setup a file server using nt acl -like permissioning(like the ones with windows server 2003) but dunno where to start.

[Samba] Samba Share only works when NFS exported to another machine?
Hi, We have an Areca ARC-1170 SATA RAID Controller with 6 x 1TB Seagate Barracuda ST31000340NS drives. These drives are configured as a raid 5 (giving a total of 4.5 TB ext3 filesystem) we have used the 64bit LBA option because our array is greater than 2TB. This all works fine until we try to use it as a Samba share, when we try to access the share it does not allow access, however if we NFS export the 4.5TB filesystem to another machine and then create the Samba share on the other machine it works fine. Has anyone seen this before or have any idea as to what could be causing this problem?

[Samba] Samba share and --ghost'ed automount hierarchy
Howdy folks - I have an automount hierarchy /data, with 30 or so mounts defined across various hosts on my network. A few of these mountpoints are temporarily off-line, but still appear under /data, due to the --ghost option. When I try to access the top level \\server\data from a Windows client, the directory listing in Explorer never returns because smbd is trying to stat these unavailable filesystems it thinks exist due to the --ghost option. Is it possible to have smbd simply return the list of directories it finds (from the fake --ghost listing) without it causing the automounter to attempt a mount each directory? I'm running SuSE 10.1, with Samba 3.0.22-11-SUSE-CODE10 and autofs 4.1.4 on a 2.6.18-rc4 kernel (with SuSE 10.1 /proc/config.gz). auto.master and the auto.data maps are stored in LDAP, if that makes a difference. (another option might be to write a script to convert the auto.data map into an appropriate set of symbolic links to msdfs filesystems, install Samba on the various NFS servers, etc. - but I'd like to try the easy option first - currently, none of the servers in auto.data provide SMB services). --- Robert Giles Group System Administrator SPD/ARL:UT (512) 835-3077 ?

[Samba] samba share permission
Just finished setting up a samba Server and having problems with file permissions. I have a main folder 'company' and subfolders like accounting, human resources, marketing. Unfortunately I cannot create separate shares for each folders as some members need to have access to all groups.. (I have 20 subfolders and 15 groups!). I also have a document management software running on the same share and accessing all 20 subfolders!... I have tried setting up smb.conf to restrict access according to group and users. As soon as I implement some GROUP access on samba I start having access problems whereby files cannot be accessed by members of that group. If anyone can help by supplying a version of SMB.conf that should do the job I would much appreciate! Any HELP is appreciated.. :-) Julien Julien -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

RE: [Samba] Samba share question
I have the guest account enabled. However, if I create the same share in say /var it works how I would like it to work, so I think it has something to do with /home/wes which is forbidden to anyone but wes, even though I have /home/wes/Downloads viewable by anyone. So it appears that the hierarchy has something to do with it. Obviously a normal user does not have permission to create a folder and share it from /var, and I do not want everyone to have read access to /home/wes, is there some way I can make it work that anyone (guest) can view the [Programs] share? -Original Message- From: Matthew Easton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 20, 2006 9:01 PM To: Wesley Hobbie Cc: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Samba share question On May 20, 2006, at 6:33 PM, Wesley Hobbie wrote: I have the following Samba share: [Programs] writable = yes path = /home/wes/Download I want myself to have write access, and everyone else to have read- only access.

[Samba] Samba Share of NFS filesystem
We have a samba share which is a NFS mounted filesystem with user quota. The samba server runs SuSE 9.2, the samba version is 3.0.20b. The filesystem is nfs mounted from a NetApp fileserver. If a user on a windows (xp or 2k) client copies some files onto his samba share and needs more space than the quota allows, the copy operation ends without any error message! As I have seen in the samba server log, the server sends the error code 'NT_STATUS_DISK_FULL' during the close operation but it seems that windows is ignoring this error. Is that a bug in our samba configuration or in the windows?

NFS is allowed to return a disk full error on close - the trouble is that Windows clients won't recognise it. You could try setting strict allocate = yes to change when the writes occur from the client NFS redirector - but this is going to be horribly slow. The best thing to do with quota-enabled filesystems is to host them on the Samba box I'm afraid.

[Samba] Samba share file permission problems
Dear all: Is it possible to set Samba share (and the files under the share) from Samba using setfacl? I want to set up a common directory for certain group of people to read, write and execute it (user::rwx group::rwx). I assigned user1 as the owner of all the files under this common directory and here is the thing: when user2(or any other users in the same group) accessed any of the files, she becomes owner of the files and the group permission changes to read only so other people in the group cannot edit the same file. Why is this happening? Is it because it's not a good idea to use setfacl? If so, is there any other tool to do it?

[Samba] samba share problem accessing from w2k client
Hi Joshua, I think that if the client workstation has not joined a domain, then it will simply ask for a valid username/password combination for that share in order to try and access it's content. The machines have a valid machine account, and i have thought of this possibility too and re-joined them in the domain. When accessing a share for which he is authorised there is no problem and no box show up on the client. Just when he tries to access a non-authorised share. Might it have something to do with the fact that the user is in more then one domaingroup? for example group users and group employees? ps i never had this problem with samba 2.2 using smbpasswd as backend. Maybe it would be best not to show the share at all except for valid users. Something like: --begin-- [example] comment = example path = /example create mask = 0760 browseable = no valid users = @allowedusers2 read only = No wrtie list = @allowedusers2 --end This way you won't have to worry about message boxes and stuff like that. If the user is not in the valid list, the share shouldn't even show up. Hope it helps.

[Samba] Samba share mapped to a virtual directory via UNC within IIS doesn't work
I have a Samba share that I've created from a Linux box. I've mapped this sucessfully to drive in Windows 2003 server. I'm also able to read/write to it under Windows explorer just fine. It's using user security so I have to enter the username and password defined in the Linux box when connecting to this share. I then mapped a virtual directory under IIS to the UNC name of this Samba network share (\\MachineName\ShareFolder) and saved the Samba connection login. This is when the problems began. Now whenever I goto my browser and type the url to that folder I get an error 500. The IIS log file shows this: 2005-02-03 14:29:11 192.168.1.150 GET /test/test.jpg - 81 - 192.168.1.150 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.2;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) - 500 16 1326 15 /test/ is the virtual directory that I've mapped the Samba share to. Is this caused by a permissions problem? I don't see any other reason for it. I'm not accessing a script, just a static file. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba share for ADS users
Hi all, As per suggested i added a windbind seperator comment in my samba.conf file and followed that up with adminin user=Domain+Some AD user. I expected this to give that AD user full control over the share (read , write , execute) however, if that user tries to create a file in that direcotry he still gets accessed is denied. Right now i have the share owned by a unix user (because i dont know of any why to have it owned by an AD user) non root with 755 as the permissions on all the folders. How do i go about giving and ADS user the ability to create files and folders in that directory without changing the rights to 777 for all files and folders?

On version 3 I have experimented with serveral options the last setting I tried is: [tmp] comment = Temporary file space path = /tmp read only = no browseable = yes public = yes map hidden = yes dos filetimes = yes dos filetime resolution = yes fstype = FAT fake directory create times = yes ea support = no My feeling is that somehow the file/directory times are important (perhaps the file creation time plays an essential role). I have sniffed the network with ethereal: the important file is copied to a .rbf file. That (roll back?) file isn't touched and later on deleted. The software company ensures me that when using any kind of Windows share the software works as expected, only with Samba it fails (other customers have identical problems). They too would like the problem resolved. They also checked their .msi file: the central database file is marked as very valuable, and shouldn't be destroyed. It is the MSI install process that rewrites the central files. Does anyone know how MSI checks its target files and whether samba can be tweaked either by changing the configuration file of by adding new functionality to Samba to make it work?

[Samba] Samba share problem
I had setup a Samba 3.0 PDC on Fedora 2. I have 2 shares like given below. The 2 shares are working fine, allowing only the users of the corresponding group to access the respective shares. [ab] comment = Lotus Group Folder path = /home/ab valid users = @a browseable = yes readonly = no [cd] comment = Creative Group Folder path = /home/cd valid users = @b browseable = yes readonly = no If a user belong to group 'a' logs into the windows PC he can access the folder ab but he can also see the shared cd folder. If he tries to access this cd folder he is asked with username and pasword. If he gives the correct username/password of a broup 'b' user he is not able to get into the cd folder. How can I make samba to allow users belonging to group 'a' to access cd folder when he gives the userame password of a group 'b' user. = Regards, AnandhG __ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: [Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux.
As far as I know you can not mount a folder/dir that is not shared. In this case create a new share for abcd_Linux_dev and mount it as smbmount '//a.b.c.d/abcd_Linux_dev' '/root/pqrs/LinuxDev' -o username=abcd/domain,uid=abcd,gid=abcd may be I'm wrong :-) -Original Message- From: Divya B Sridhar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 17 November 2004 5:48 PM To: Steve Simeonidis; 'Eric Lester'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux.

[Samba] samba share of mounted Novell volume is empty
Hi, I am using samba as logon server. I have created some shares using SWAT. I am using scripts for loging on to Windows clients and connecting drive letters . Everything works fine so far.

I can see them as root but also when I log in as normal user. Now I created again a share for this novell-directory. I assign a drive letter via login-script. When I log in on my windows-client I see the novell-server directory under the assigned drive letter, but it is empty! I can se no files or data at all. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any hints!
