Hello,
I am trying to use the cdrom from one Sun server for software
installation on NT Clients. I am using samba 1.9.18p7 on solaris 2.5.1
Here is my smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = WIWI
server string = Windows NT Server 5.0
debug level = 2
log file = /opt/samba/var/log.%m
max log size = 10
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
read prediction = yes
interfaces = 141.22.103.100/24
local master = yes
os level = 100
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
wins proxy = yes
dns proxy = yes
protocol = NT1
mangle case = yes
mangled names = yes
default case = lower
case sensitive = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
[homes]
comment = HOMES
browseable = no
writable = yes
path=/home/%u
create mode = 0755
[apps]
comment = APPS
path = /export/win/apps
public = yes
writable = yes
available = yes
printable = no
write list = ntadmin
create mask = 0775
#share modes = no
#locking = no
[public]
comment = PUBLIC
path = /export/home1/public
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
write list = ntadmin, @mitarb
create mask = 0775
[install]
comment = INSTALL
path = /export/win/install
browseable = no
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
write list = ntadmin
locking = no
share modes = no
create mask = 0775
[cdrom]
comment = CDROM
path = /cdrom/cdrom0
browseable = no
available = yes
public = yes
locking = no
read only = yes
I am connecting exported cdrom with office97 pro inside as drive e: and
i am trying to make administration installation ( with e:\setup.exe /a)
on service APPS connected as drive i:. During installation i am getting
messages that three files cannot be read :
XLMAIN8.AW
WDMAIN8.AW
OUTHLP.AW
I am ignoring those messages and administration setup is complete. When
i am doing the same installation procedure, but usind cdrom exported by
one NT Client i have no any error messages, all files are readable. Is
there something wrong with my smb.conf, or is it one samba bug ?
Changing share modes and locking to no on the APPS is adviced for the
client installation but not for server installation.
Many greetings, Tomek
