Hi everyone ,
Recently upgraded to 2.2.5 on RH73 and
suddenly my Roaming profiles did stop working and on top of this my NMBD is
giving me constant errors!!!!
when i try
nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 _SAMBA_
name_query fail to find name _Samba_
then i have tried :
nmblookup -B 192.168.123.1 MYSERVER
and then :
nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 MYSERVER
192.168.123.1 MYSERVER<00>
looks fine
after this i tried again :
nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 _SAMBA_
name_query fail to find name _Samba_
no luck :(
in my conf file i have
interfaces = eth1 lo // and this is what i use my eth1
bind interfaces only = yes
when i run testparm i have not errors!!!!!
My logs are full with messages :
nmbd/nmbd_resposerecordsdb.c:find_responce_record(234)
find_responce_record: response packet id 32345 received with no matching
record.
.......................................
and this keep going on and on and on ... at least 5 times per min
i have tried to downgrade to 2.2.3a official RH73 but all my users can't
be authenticated!!!
then i had to upgrade to 2.2.5 again !!!!!
My downloaded RPM is from samba.org However when i
verify it rpm -V i have
missing /etc/samba/samba.stack
missing /etc/samba/samba.xinetd
I have tried to un install and make clean install of this RPM same problems
too!!!!
My roaming profiles also stop working and messages i am getting is that
they can
not be created!!! I have move my profile directory that to different place ....
it was into /export/profiles and now is in /usr/local/profiles
have played with permissions giving full -R 777 to the entire dir but
not luck still system can create user profiles
I am using W2K SP2 Clients that can authenticate successfully now but
can't create profiles /this is after the upgrade to 2.2.5/
also the way i have created new profile dir in /usr/local/profiles was
mkdir -p /usr/local/profiles
chmod 1777 /usr/local/profiles
path = /usr/loca/profiles
read only = no
browesable = yes
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
Then i have decide to move my profiles dir into /tmp/profiles
because tmp has 777 permissions and i have created profiles in the same way
i have done
before !!!!
now i can log in and see everything but when i log out i get messages from w2k
"Windows can not update your
roaming profile!! Please contact your
System Administrator"
Details The system can not find the file specified!!! "
Questions:
1 How can i make my NMBD to work fine !!!!
2 How can i make my Roaming profiles to be ok after the upgrade !!!!
Thanks in advance to anyone taking time to answer this e-mail
and thanks to SAMBA team and Gerald Carter /Samba in 24 hours/ for
wonderfully work and dedication!!!
Ivan
