[01:17]<laaga>what is the best way to distribute 100TB of disk space?
[01:17]<laaga>do you have multiple computers?
[05:38]<dnejcj_>I wonder why my domain isn't accessable
[05:39]<dnejcj_>I can access the computer on the domain but just not the odmian
[05:40]<wygxlnzvs>you broke it again?
[05:40]<dnejcj>winxpert, no I just changed the domain name
[05:41]<dnejcj>winxpert, and I fixed my problem with the long drive I need \\earth\%U
[05:42]<wygxlnzvs>yeah if you change the name you will have to rejoin domain and restart all computers
[05:42]<wygxlnzvs>not a cool idea...
[05:42]<dnejcj>winxpert, even the linux boxes?
[05:43]<dnejcj>oh wait I might have gotten everything backup and running
[05:44]<dnejcj>btw my network is only 5 computers
[05:44]<wygxlnzvs>the linux boxes may need to wait until dns, wins or broadcast kick in..
[05:44]<wygxlnzvs>upto 30 or 45 minutes
[05:47]<dnejcj>winxpert, should i just shutdown my small home network untill the morning?
[05:48]<dnejcj>because my two linux boxes see the new domain but the windows boxes are being a pain in the ass
[05:49]<dnejcj>well now my window box picked up the domain
[07:24]<frve>Question for the masses... Have a samba server, local auth, local database. Have a new active directory tree and im trying to create a system where samba will hit the AD tree for auth and if that fails, hit the local database. Is that possible?
[08:09]<vgwrvy0g>i am having a problem... i want to share a directory on my local network so that local users don't need any login credentials at all, and full permissions. i have it set to do that, and it works fine with windows clients. but other 'nix clients are unable to access the share. smbclient can see the share, but it can't open it, saying something about the share not existing or being deleted recently.
[08:13]<vgwrvy0g>i love open-source support :/ gee i wonder why so many people use m$ instead
[08:14]<frve>what kind of statement is that?
[08:16]<vgwrvy0g>sorry im frustrated.
[08:17]<vgwrvy0g>just sayin. there's no 1-800-smb-help phone# is there. there's 'email this guy, no email that guy, no wait in line at a dead irc channel for 3 months and hope somebody comes in who knows what to tell you'
[08:18]<frve>aye
[08:29]<ajgvnzvnz>vexati0n: what do the samba logs say about your attempts to access the share?
[09:38]<qzgvjuzysa>Is it possible to write files bigger then 2GiBit over SMB ?
[09:38]<qzgvjuzysa>(well or atleast samba)
[10:23]<qzgvjuzysa>does cifs support files larger then 2G ?
[10:51]<dyrzj_vrrrjq>Any experts that have a minute to glance over a simple config script? I'm trying to integrate samba in AD.
[11:05]<ajgvnzvnz>micro_tango2: http://pastebin.com/
[11:07]<qzgvjuzysa>micro_tango2: converter means you have to post your current config there
[11:07]<ajgvnzvnz>right, sorry, multitasking at the moment
[11:07]<fryey>hi guys
[11:08]<qzgvjuzysa>btw does cifs take file larger then 2 GB ?
[11:08]<fryey>guys, how do I multiple user login in samba?
[11:08]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: hold on
[11:08]<fryey>ok
[11:09]<pzrgc->multiple user login in what way?
[11:09]<qzgvjuzysa>security = user
[11:09]<qzgvjuzysa>i mean
[11:09]<qzgvjuzysa>share
[11:09]<pzrgc->but samba will 'remember' the username you provided first
[11:09]<fryey>I mean, I create 2 users in samba, with different username and passwd, with access to different directory
[11:09]<fryey>that's the problem
[11:09]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: ow :)
[11:09]<fryey>if I login through windows with one username
[11:10]<pzrgc->there is no way to prevent that
[11:10]<fryey>I can't login to the different directory with the other username
[11:10]<fryey>ic
[11:10]<pzrgc->windows is incapable of behaving otherwise
[11:10]<pzrgc->it's a windows SMB implementation issue
[11:10]<fryey>so is there any workaround to enable me to login with multiple user?
[11:10]<pzrgc->kill the workstation service
[11:10]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: first question: are u using secity user or share ?
[11:10]<pzrgc->or kill all SMB connections
[11:11]<pzrgc->prior to reconnecting to the machine
[11:11]<fryey>Qantourisc Faizi: first question: are u using secity user or share ? <-- secity user? sorry don't understand
[11:11]<fryey>so I have to restart the workstation services on windows?
[11:11]<pzrgc->what security model is your samba using?
[11:11]<pzrgc->Faizi: 2 options
[11:11]<pzrgc->1) restart that service or 2) kill all the existing SMB connection manually with net ues
[11:12]<pzrgc->net use
[11:12]<qzgvjuzysa>frank-: per computer i'm sure you can use a different account, aldo i'm not sure per share :)
[11:12]<fryey>how to check the security model? I'm quite new to this, my samba server is version 3.0.20 running on slackware 10
[11:12]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: you can run an smb server in 2 ways: username and password / connection OR a username and password / share
[11:12]<pzrgc->if you connect to one machine, and provide a username/password once, windows will remember it for that computer and use it for the remainder of the sessio
[11:13]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: [global] security = mode
[11:13]<pzrgc->this is the problem with that security model and windows
[11:13]<pzrgc->and this is why windows sucks
[11:14]<fryey>Qantourisc Faizi: [global] security = mode <-- errr...
[11:15]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/manual4/smbconf.html
[11:15]<fryey>if I restart the workstation service in windows, then I can login with different username and password?
[11:15]<pzrgc->yes
[11:15]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: that is certain
[11:16]<fryey>Thanks Qantourisc , going to rtfm, be back if I got more questions
[11:16]<fryey>thanks again
[11:16]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: no i'm not telling you to rtfm :)
[11:16]<fryey>then?
[11:16]<fryey>use that config file?
[11:16]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: i'm telling to to go to that link find "security" and read his explonation
[11:16]<pzrgc->you're welcome Faizi
[11:16]<qzgvjuzysa>should me more clear :)
[11:17]<fryey>ic
[11:17]<fryey>ok I'll do that
[11:17]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: hmm no explonation there :)
[11:18]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: man smb.conf /security /
[11:18]<qzgvjuzysa>Faizi: maybe that explonation is good ?
[13:40]<vyac>Hello, does anybody know any good samba configuration GUI tool ?
[13:42]<sauvvfn>Um... I have two disks mounted as /mnt/disk-1 and /mnt/disk-2. I have both mapped on a windows-machine, but the windowsmachine sees the free diskspace on / instead of disk-1 and disk-2, is there a way to "fix" this?
[13:47]<vyac>Sorry was disconnected, was there any responses regarding any samba configuration gui tool ?
[13:59]<dsg>vick: swat?
[14:16]<vyac>msn, it's web interface, i already looked on it
[14:17]<vyac>When i try to view the share on a samba installed on debian, i get error 'remote server doesn't accept connections'
[14:19]<vncsds>what does the ADMIN IPC share stand for and how do I either remove or create it?
[15:03]<sauvvfn>hrm...now this is weird... samba reports correct diskspace on one share, but not the other
