View 2 RepliesI've read through these pages [URL] but can't seem to get Samba server working. I am using Gnome and I go to System - Administration - Services
In there I can see smb and nmb. Both are enabled, but both have a status of unknown. I can't seem to start or stop either of them. I can just enable or disable them. I've tried using the gui, as well as command line.
I'd really like to get this going as I'd like to copy files from my XP Pro box to my Linux box (F9). I have WinSCP, but am having permission issues and I can only copy to a folder on my desktop on the Linux box (I'd like to get this fixed too, but that's a different thread at a later time)
I have a computer running Fedora 11. I wanted to use samba in my office. So I configured the /etc/samba/smb.conf ,but it did not work well : Windows can find samba,but when I tap in username and password,samba request them again , and the same thing continues in a loop. So I copied another computer's smb.conf (which is also a Fedora 11,samba runs well in this one).I copied this file to /etc/samba/ ,then samba can't satart up . I read from /var/log/samba/log.smbd.log : Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf": Permission denied Even if I use: chmod 777 /etc/samba/smb.conf
why I can't login samba from Windows:
[global]
workgroup = MYGROUP
server string = Samba Server Version %v
; netbios name = MYSERVER
; interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.1.99/24
[Code]....
I've got a situation where I would normally use NFS, but cannot. So in it's place I need to use a samba share (even though it's linux -> linux). I need it completely open and world writeable as if I had done an rw in an NFS export. I thought I had it as when logged in as a user I can edit delete etc. however the apache user seems to be struggling with creating files.
Here's my smb.conf as it stands.
Code:
[global]
workgroup = WGRP
server string = Samba Server Version %v
security = user
passdb backend = tdbsam
unix extensions = no
[tmp]
comment = Temp Directory
path = /var/tmp
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
[sites]
comment = Sites Directory
path = /var/www/sites
public = yes
guest ok = no
write list = siteusr
writeable = yes
create mask = 0777
browseable = no
security mask = 0777
directory security mask = 0777
note that the drive is mapped as user siteusr
What I can do to open it up more?
I'm trying to config a customer's samba server to use a MS 2003 SBS for auth. The samba is for file sharing only config'ed with disk quota's. Currently the samba is config'ed for auth = Users. But I want a central point for user auth, and since they already have the sbs in place, I'd like to use that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI don't think it has anything to do with the config file. More to do with SElinux. I need to know how to configure SElinux so I can see my samba share when SELinux is on. When I setenforce 0 I can seen all the files and folders set it to setenforce 1 cannot see anything.
Here is the output when I ran [root@fileserver /]# getsebool -a | grep smb
allow_smbd_anon_write --> on
smbd_disable_trans --> on
These two options were off I tried turning them on.
This is another one of the commands I tried running. I did change a few options but I am not sure which I do need to change. I am running a stand alone server so I don't need the DC option.
[root@fileserver /]# getsebool -a | grep samba
samba_domain_controller --> off
samba_enable_home_dirs --> off
samba_export_all_ro --> on
samba_export_all_rw --> off
samba_share_nfs --> off
use_samba_home_dirs --> on
I can also post a copy of my smb.conf file too.
I switch to linux 9.10 and I got webmin installed, I was hoping to set up samba so it would share my second hard drive over the network. Is there anyway I could share the second drive?
Here is my fdisk info.
Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 40.0 GB, 40037760000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4867 cylinders
code....
Edit, Can you find out the ip of the server via commands not like this ip 192.168.XXX.X
i want to configure samba on fedora 10. here are my settings in smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = MARVELSERVICES

I'm attempting to give a few buddies encrypted storage space through sftp using truecrypt.I have it worked out to the point where the truecrypt volume is automatically mounted when the user logs on, and dismounted when they log off.I would like to restrict each person to their individual home folders. This way, I can control exactly how much space each user is able to use (through the size of the truecrypt volume), while maintaining security through the network due to using SFTP.
I've been looking around, and the only thing I can see is restricting a large group of users to a single directory, this won't work, I need each person to be locked down to their personal home directory.My end goal is to have these volumes "mountable" in Windows through the use of Windows network drives (on a wide network, not through samba on local), or by using expandrive or a similar program. how I can lock these users to their respective home folders?
Ive followed this:

SWAT service is running
Firewall is disabled
disable is saved in this file.
Doesnt work. http://localhost:901
What to do to diagnose this? What to check?
this is my first post ever, so sorry if i'm not very descriptive. I just installed Ubuntu Server 9.10 x86 and I cannot use the net command that comes with Samba

I wish to prevent the samba messages (mainly nmbd and winbindd) from appearing in the system log (/var/log/messages). I want to allow samba logging to the standard samba logfiles, but prevent the syslog getting clogged up by samba. I added syslog = 0 to smb.conf and reloaded the config but the messages were still appearing. I also tried the following (and restarted the syslog via /sbin/service syslog restart) # Suppress messages from samba.
nmbd.* /dev/null
smbd.* /dev/null
winbindd.* /dev/null
For interests sake the messages I'm getting are below (I'm not concerned about the messages themselves, I can chase them up at my leisure via the samba logs) Mar 18 09:58:29 SERVER nmbd[3808]: query_name_response: Multiple (2) responses received for a query on subnet xx.yy.z.zz for name DOMAIN<1d>.

I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.04 with OpenSSH, trying to create an ssh tunnel (for web traffic) to it from my (also Ubuntu) laptop. This is the command I'm using to create the tunnel:
Code: ssh -ND localhost:8080 george@192.168.1.20 I had it all working on a virtual machine.. which was deleted What settings/lines do I need to change/add from the default OpenSSH config files to get tunnelling to work? I've Googled and AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes, as is X11Forwarding.. but it still doesn't work. Chrome can connect to the server, but says the connection was closed before any data was sent.
have a sample kernel .config, so I can compile a small custom kernel on my vps? I tried to make it alone,but I removed stuff,so that my VPS won't start anymore. Virtualization is KVM, running on a Core 2 Duo.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo my server running FC4 died last night and I decided to go ahead with the long-awaited upgrade to FC10 while I was rebuilding my server. I use my server for a number of things including, but not limited to: router, firewall, web server, mail server... I have a typical configuration process that I have followed since before fedora, and it has worked well for me up through FC4, but my usual config process doesn't work on FC10.
First of all, I don't want SELinux running, I didn't see an option to not install it during the FC10 setup, so how to I properly disable or uninstall it afterwards? Second, I was unable to even configure the server to route traffic from my internal network to the web, here's the process I usually go through for this:
[Code]...
I don't have a static IP from my ISP, so I'm not quite sure how to add the default route. I think I need to do something like "route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx eth1" where eth1 is my external NIC, correct?
What else do I need to do to route traffic? I noticed that I wasn't even able to ping my server from the internal network even though they are on the same subnet, my server's internal NIC has an address of 192.168.7.1 and my computer on the network has an address of 192.168.7.2. If I can get this going to I have internet access again at the very least, I can move forward with the web server, email, etc.
I am installing VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386 on FC 12
Have an error when executing vmware-config.pl initially. When I try again it has the message:-
start of messages;
The following VMware kernel modules have been found on your system that were not installed by the VMware Installer. Please remove them then run this installer again.
vmmemctl
vmci
vmxnet
vmhgfs
vmblock
I.e. - 'rm /lib/modules/2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686/misc/<ModuleName>.{o,ko}'

End of message
I tried remove them using modprobe e.g.
modprobe -r -v vmemctl the response was "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/anaconda, it will be ignored in a future release."
Subsequently I tried vmware-config.pl, but have the same error.
I just done a brand new install of fed12 and did all the yum updates. Apache seems to start ok and I always liked the http config tool but it won't run on Fedora 12. I downloaded and installed system-config-httpd.noarch 5:1.4.6-1.fc12 and it all went fine but when I try to start it I get the usual box asking for my root password, I type it in and press enter, the box disappears and then....nothing. If I run system-config-httpd in a terminal I get the same box asking for root passowrd but when I enter it I get a long scroll of text which ends with:
line 4: 2137 Aborted (core dumped) /usr/bin/python /usr/share/system-config-httpd/ApacheConf.py
I don't know what causes this. Is there any way to get the http config tool working?
I have Fedora 14 along with vista. when I boot fedora, it gives following error at the beginning: Starting udev:udevd-work[505]:error opening ATTR{/sys/devices/pci0000......./usb3/......../power/level3} for writing. No such file or directory and halts right after- Starting atd :[ OK ] However I can use fedora in command mode. I had installed some softwares & had removed Evolution before this problem started.

The "f" is how I now feel.I do "fn+f2" as it is booting and it displays the sequence of loading items which report all is "ok" until it gets to "jexec services" and then it hangs.I do not know how to access the machine in command line mode and I am not sure what to do from here. I beleive the "jexec service" is a Sun Java item but I am not sure.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an odd problem - that I'm having difficulty tracking down the cause!
Since upgrading F12 I have had varying levels of success booting in. Let me explain.
1. Boot
2. Plymouth graphic progresses
3. Freezes at GDM/login screen - Mouse freezes and Keyboard lights flash
4. Hard Reset with pushed in power button
5. Repeat with different kernel - usually the same result (the only exception appears to be 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686 kernel - this appears to have a better boot success than the other kernels listed)
In particular the .PAE kernels do not boot AT ALL ( this includes the 6-145 and 6-162 kernels). However the .PAE kernels did work on F11!
ABRT does seem to capture the following kerneloops (url very frequently (yes I do return them to kerneloops)
BUT on reviewing the /var/log/messages file they don't appear to coincide with these boot failures times!
I am using Fedora 14 64 bit with two 1T drives. There is a Raid 1 for the important information and I use a Raid 0 for cached files that can be generated on the fly. Yesterday my Raid 0 went into read only mode.
Here are a couple of tests:
What caused the Raid 0 drive from /dev/md1 to get removed? Is there a way to get it back to active sync?
I have tried:
But it can not open /dev/sda2: Device or resource busy.
What is the command to install CUPS and Samba, like yum install. I don't want to be installing wrong things and then end up with dependency problems, and after that what do i need to configure to have CUPS print from the localhost, and so that other computers from the networks also be able to print from the server, that is i'm workin on a server. As for samba i just need the installation command, then i want to figure the rest out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe GUI for network configuration of Fedora is marvellous such that the configuration is almost fool-proof. But how can I make the connection by hand in the command line mode? It goes okay except the very last step. When I disconnect the eth0 interface from the right-hand side of the desktop GUI, I tested how to bring it back by command line but I failed. When disconnected, the ifconfig still shows the eth0 interface, with just the ip address portion changed.
I tried "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.xx" to give it an ip address but the connection is still down even if the ifconfig shows an ip address for the eth0 interface. Then I tried "/etc/init.d/network restart" and "ifup eth0" and also "route add defaut gw 192.168.1.1" but none of these could accomplish the same work as a single click on the GUI to connect. I am very curious about how to do it in the terminal.
Automatic upgrade ver 10 to 11 Have a large drive that is shared over Windows domain.This was renamed from /media/drive/ to /media/7534179143A7E34 All the users in Windows domain can not access the files or folders on the Fedora server - Samba setup. Why was the deive renamed and is this causing problems. I reshared the folders on the drive but still cannot access the drive. Where do I start to fault find please.
