I could try it when I'll be back, but I doubt it would work.
the driver name is "smbfs", and the driver name for ext3 is indeed
"ext3"... even "man mount" refers to it as "smbfs".
I just did a few tests on my home pc, a slack box running a custom
2.6.26 kernel and samba 3.0.23. this is my home smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = Home
server string = Samba Server
security = share
hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127.
load printers = no
guest account = nobody
log file = /var/log/samba.%m
max log size = 50
passdb backend = tdbsam
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
dns proxy = no
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
guest ok = no
writable = no
printable = yes
[public]
comment = Public Stuff
path = /mnt/storage/public
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = yes
I use samba here only to access some videos from my set-top-box, and
with this very basic configuration I'm able to access locally to it
using smbclient either with password and without, the only
difference is that without password it warns me "server not using
user level security and no password supplied", but it still gives me
access.
Why can't I achieve the same thing on fedora?
at this point I'm pretty sure it is a bug, to me the key is the
"tdb_fetch_uint32 failed" I get every time I add a user.
maybe I should file a bug on bugzilla, should I?
I searched
www.samba.org for pre-built packages, but there are not
more recent packages than 3.0.26 for fedora 7... I guess they would
not work on fedora 9, would them?
my boss will kill me... all was working with winXP, but I always
tried to convince him that linux is better :°(
----
# rpm -q samba
samba-3.2.0-2.17.fc9.i386
did you expect to find something newer from samba site?
fwiw...I set up my home Fedora 9 with tdbsam passdb (I normally use
ldap) on Fedora 9 to test your issues and I'm not having user issues or
any error adding users...
# smbpasswd -a jennifer
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
Added user jennifer.
I doubt you want to use the socket options as those are legacy from 2.4
kernel.
But you have introduced a new configuration to the discussion and I'm
wondering which system configuration we are talking about.
