Hi Samba fellows,
We all know what a fine job Andrew has done by creating Samba.
Would't it be nice to have his picture published ? For example
on the SAMBA web site ?
Andrew, do you have a nice photo of yourself that could be published ?

I've encountered some interesting results lately with regards to MS'
client locking schemes which may help out. I don't know whether it will
help out with MS Access, but I was encountering sharing problems between
MS Exchange and Schedule+ when trying to use a private address book
stored on a Samba share. I tried all variations of Share Modes, Locking,
Strict Locking,... I ended up sniffing the transactions using the
Network Monitor from Systems Management Server while storing the address
book on an NT share and then on the Samba share. The only setting that
looked like it conflicted was the read-ahead/write-behind option induced
by the "Read Prediction" parameter of Samba. I disabled it and the
sharing problems went away. You might try this and see if it helps.

Ok, I have a small problem..
Our school has set up all our machines with WFW 3.11 and Win95.
Unfortunately, they have just installed support for Novell net, no
support for the mircosoft net.
So, is there a cute, small program somewhere that enables me to use SMB
shares WITHOUT enabling M$-net?

Hi all,
Where can I find SMB packet specifications (fields, sizes, types, specific
values, etc...) ?
If somedy knows the "Exchange" structure too, I will be very happy.
The real question is:
- I would like to create an Exchange server on Unix.
How to do that ? Is it possible to use samba for it ?
Thank you very much.

Hi!
Have anybody tried the `queue' and `qinfo' commands of smbclient? I
wonder, wether they work at all. I tried them when connecting to WfW 3.11
disk or print share with the same result:
qinfo returns:
returned 10 bytes of parameters, 0 bytes of data, 0 records
and queue results in:
ERRSRV - ERRerror (Non-specific error code.) obtaining print queue
I would like to be able to control spool job from Unix (at least to cancel
it); but as I understand, I have to know its id (or what is it called)
first ;)
thanks in advance

What I think is happenning here is that samba is mapping the
DOS archive bit into the user execute bit. There is an option
to control this. I don't remember which but it is documented
in the smb.conf man page.

I noticed in 1.9.16p1 the -G and -C options for nmbd became
"obsolete".
I don't agree, it handy to be able to modify things quicly at
runtime rather than edit the smb.conf file...
Minimally, I found I've found setting the group name in nmbd
handy...I'd like a more extensive approach (like -xrm, to set
all X resources). something like
-conf " "
to set any configuration item...

Incorrect netmasks and broadcast addresses. From the above, I'd guess
that .0 - .127 is on a different subnet from .128 - .255, with the
Samba server being on the latter.

Hi everyone :)
I was wondering if it is possible to make samba appear in multiple
workgroups? We were unable to get win95 machine with different workgroup
then sambas to find samba as master browser, but immediately after
changing the workgroup everything worked fine.

Hi,
in reply to your posting, all I can say is YES, samba may be the program you're
looking for. I'm using it for file/printer sharing, and it really does the job.
My networks are made by Linux servers, that holds files and printers, and WfW311
clients. I've found this working much better than using expensive NFS client for
Windows, and easier to set up. Uh, my files are mainly Access DBs.
If you need any advice (and I'm able to give it to you) feel free to e-mail me
privately.
Andrew and the others really did (and continue to do) a good work with samba
Cheers
PS I don't know AIX issues (if I remember, you have AIX) I mean, compiler and
stuff. But sometimes you can find samba already compiled, so why not giving it
a try?

Check to ensure that these two IP's are named in your DNS. Samba (in my
experience, I assume this is supposed to happen) won't serve an unnamed
machine.

Hi, a quick fix is ':%s /^M//' in vi while editing a file.
or you can try this script I found :
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -i
#
# Convert text files between Unix and MS-DOS file formats
#
# If this program is called with a name ends with '..dos', like 'todos',
# it will add ^M, otherwise it will strip them.
# Optionally a target format can be chosen with command line flags -u and -d.
#
# If no file names given the program reads stdin and writes on stdout.
#
# Michal Jaegermann - 2 April, 1994
($prog = $0 ) =~ s:.*/::;
$add = ($prog =~ /dos$/i) ? 1 : 0;
$use =
qq!Usage: $prog [-d] [-u] [file ...]
-d convert to MS-DOS text format
-u convert to Unix text format
!;
while ($ARGV[0] =~ /^-/) {
$opt = shift @ARGV;
$add = 1, next if $opt =~ /^-d$/;
$add = 0, next if $opt =~ /^-u$/;
die "Unknown option $opt.\n$use";
}
die $use unless @ARGV || !-t;
if ($add) {
