Easiest way to get samba up and working for Windows users?
by Noob Centos Admin 07 Mar '09

07 Mar '09

Everytime I have to setup samba to handle Windows users, sometime inadvertently goes wrong or doesn't work the way I expected, or takes forever to setup, especially when there are many users and various policies. So far, the easiest, sureest and quickest method appears to be install WindowsXP into VMWare and use it to handle Windows sharing. Needless to say, this strucks me as rather ironic and stupid. Thus could anybody please suggest a working frontend to samba that makes it easy to add users, set their permissions and get something that works like basic windows file sharing? So far I've tried the following which all don't quite work. 1. CentOS's samba configuration tool - added users never show up on the share configuration so the only shares it could create was for public access. 2. Webmin - thinks it added the users, but again they never show up when checked against the bundled CentOS tool and needless to say, the shares never work too 3. Samba SWAT - Very confusing tool, selecting shares sometimes end up as another share, and again, doesn't seem to work. So I just need a very basic tool that will reliably allow me to do the following - specify user name, specify password, and maybe specify a group - specify a share the user or group has read only or read/write access - force new files/folders to take on group ID so that it behaves like a normal windows share Don't need print services or anything, it's just far easier to dump a hardware print server into the network than to contemplate the additional complexity of making something like CUPS work. Just need to make sure that the Windows users can browse to the folders, get a prompt for their login and password where needed. Thanks!

I accidentally typed ss instead of ls and was surprised when it did something... I can use rpm's --whatprovides to see where it came from, but how are you supposed to find out want a program does when it doesn't have a man page? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

epel-5.2 trying to upgrade to 5.3
by Marcelo M. Garcia 06 Mar '09

06 Mar '09

Hi I just installed CentOS 5.2 (x86_64), and everything was fine. After installing the "epel-release-5-2.noarch.rpm", and issuing "yum check-update", I can see that "epel" is trying to upgrade to version 5.3. First I didn't notice the problem, and after upgrading, I got the message "error sumary" when updating the system. It seems that the x86 (32bit) version is working fine. Does anybody else having similar problem? Thanks Marcelo

Hi When adding priority to a repo, like rpmforge or epel, is it better to give the same priority or can give different priority to different repos, ranking them? thanks Marcelo

general protection rip?
by J Potter 06 Mar '09

06 Mar '09

Hi List, On one of our CentOS 5 (x64_86) servers, identical to a number of other systems, I'm seeing some processes / services failing to run, along with the following error in /var/log/messages: Mar 2 23:25:07 someHostname kernel: wrapper-linux-x[24448] general protection rip:805386e rsp:ffc20390 error:0 Mar 2 23:25:09 someHostname kernel: dsm_sa_datamgr3[5063] general protection rip:f7f86e7c rsp:f5aab30c error:0 Mar 3 09:57:54 someHostname kernel: dcecfg32[1993] general protection rip:b9c71a rsp:ffa20568 error:0 Mar 6 09:38:59 someHostname kernel: omreport[15107] general protection rip:af597a rsp:ffdccad0 error:0 I've Googled a bit, but don't see any clear consistent explanation. Does anyone have any pointers as to what is causing this? Faulty hardware? I ran memtester, but it didn't find any issue with the memory it was able to test. Thanks, Jeff
