Hi,
I have installed samba 2.0.6 under HP-UX 10.20.
I downloaded the precompiler binaries for samba 2.0.6 and followed as
per the instructions and installed the SAMBA from the HP-UX depot it
created.
And now when I start from /sbin/init.d/samba the smbd daemon starts
and
this is the message I see in the /var/opt/samba/log.smb :
invalid argument

[2000/01/24 16:11:15, 1] smbd/server.c:(621)
smbd version 2.0.4b started.

The /etc/services file is as follows:
swat 901/tcp # Samba configuration
tool
netbios-ssn 139/tcp # Samba
netbios-ns 137/udp # Samba
The /etc/inetd.conf file is as follows:
# SMB connections handled by Samba
swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /opt/samba/bin/swat swat
netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /opt/samba/bin/smbd smbd
netbios-ns dgram udp wait root /opt/samba/bin/nmbd nmbd
The contents of the /opt/samba/lib/smb.conf file is as follows:
[global]
netbios name = HPSAPP05
workgroup = SWGDOM01
security = user
[boss1]
Comment = shared directory for group boss
path = /INSTALL/boss1
writeable = yes
valid users = @sapsys
locking = yes
create mode = 0660
directory mode = 0770
[homes]
guest ok = no
read only = no
comment = UNIX home directory space
path = %H
writeable = yes
valid users = %S
create mode = 0600
Please note that the HP-UX server is running HP-UX 10.20 and it is
called
hpsapp05 and I have called the workgroup as SWGDOM01 which is my
NT domain for all users in the network.All that I need to do is
access the
share /INSTALL/boss1 from Windows 95 and NT workstations.I will be
extremely
grateful if somebody can help me in fixing this and please I would
appreciate if you.
I have created a UNIX userid testuser in /etc/passwd and it is in
the UNIX group
sapsys.I am logged on to my NT Domain as testuser and when I say from
a
DOS window on a Windows 98 system as follows:
net use f: \\hpsapp05\boss1
I get the following error message:
Error 53: The computer name specified in the network path cannot be
located.Make suer you are specifying the computer name correctly, or
try again
later when the remote computer is available.
WHen I try ping hpsapp05 from the windows machine I can reach that
box.
Running smbclient on the hpsapp05 box as follows:
/opt/samba/bin/smbclient -L HPSAPP05 -U testuser
Added interface ip=172.17.132.37 bcast=172.17.135.255
nmask=255.255.252.0

MISSIONSYS HPBAYAPP
SWGBAYS WG000177
SWGDOM01 SWGSER10
I get the above output.I can't understand where it is picking the
Workgroup as MISSIONSYS that was my workgroup
previously on the windows workstation which I have changed to
SWGDOM01 and rebooted windows.MISSIONSYS was my
workgroup in smb.conf previously which I changed to
SWGDOM01 and stopped samba and restarted it still seems
to remember the old worksgroup and similarly HPBAYAPP was
the previous netbios name which I modified now before restarting
the smbd to HPSAPP05 but samba still shows the old names.
Can anyone please clarify a fix.All I want to do is map the
file share on windows and also print to the printer that I will
next setup on the samba server.Am I supposed to add
the samba server to the NT domain.I do not want to request
our NT administrators to add the HPSAPP05 to the NT domain
is there a way out that I can just work at UNIX and manage
the visibility of the Samba server to my Windows PCs.??
Many thanks & Regards
Mohan
