I have Windows File sharing enabled on an OS X 10.4 computer. It's accessible via \rudy\myshare for all the Windows users on the network, except for one guy running Vista Ultimate 64-bit edition.

Hi all, We're trying to get SMB volume listings in our OS X application, and have been using NMBLookup, as suggested by Apple, to get listings. However, more often than not, we're not able to get a full listing of available SMB volumes using the tool. We've got a good benchmark in that we can see the full listing the Apple Finder gets, ...
I have a CIFS share mounted on a Linux machine. The CIFS server is down, or the internet connection is down, and anything that touches the CIFS mount now takes several minutes to timeout, and is unkillable while you wait. I can't even run ls in my home directory because there is a symlink pointing inside the CIFS mount and ls tries to...
trying to mount an smb share on OS X so that the 'www' user can read files from there. the SMB share is accessible via an Active Directory account. I can mount the share through the Finder (cmd-k ...) my basic approach is # 1) create mountpoint sudo mkdir /Volumes/www_mdisk # 2) permissions for mountpoint sudo chown www:www /Volumes...
Hello. I'm facing this strange problem.

C:\SharedFolder\> mklink /d ReallyBigFolderT...

Assume I have access to a SMB server at IP 1.2.3.4, how can I determine the list of available shares? Windows Explorer can do it when I enter a UNC path \\1.2.3.4\ - but command prompt "dir \\1.2.3.4\" fails! I've tried the usual FindFirstFile/FindNext calls - which I use successfully to read the files and directories on each share, bu...

I have the question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/990759/how-do-you-track-files-in-smb-with-an-application open and I was woundering whether maybe there are unique id's for files so that I can track when a file/folder is moved. Is there something like this? It can be very debian specific ...

Hello, We are developing a file system for Windows using IFS Kit. We started to investigate a performance problem which caused our file system I/O to be much slower when shared over the network. After looking at it with FileMon and TCPView from Sysinternals we found out that if a NTFS/FAT was shared, the SMB client and server were trans...

I am developing some low-level stuff (LSP) and found out, that SMB traffic does not go through LSP, because SMB does not use Winsock. There is a paragraph in MSDN about it, but this is in part of MSDN dedicated to Windows CE. So, is there any comprehend list of whole traffic that does not go through Winsock? MSDN is bit messy about that....
I had been running Fedora 9 for the last year --- I have a Windows box (actually a VM) that mounts a folder on the Fedora box using my own name/password. I do this so that I can run my version control program (Vault) on Windows. It has worked flawlessly for the last 6 months. Yesterday, I upgraded Fedora from version 9 to version 11. Si...

Take for granted that the impersonation has took place successfully and I can execute commands with full credentials. Is there any way to check whether the file is properly copied? ...
PySamba is a Python library that provides a full wrapper for the Samba CLI library provided with samba-3.0.24. It includes a Python module that hides the complexity of the lower layer (SMB), providing high-level commands like Mkdir or DiskAvail. PySamba allows the developer to interface to any samba-capable device much like Python's ftpl...
