I've got it working! Something else was listening on port 139 so I removed the references to netbios-ssn and netbios-ns from inetd.conf and restated the daemon using 'refresh -s inetd'. When I run /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D afterwards it works fine! Mike

Here's an extract from the log file that's generated when I try to start smbd; [2007/07/26 14:10:15, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:getsmbfilepwent(391) getsmbfilepwent: malformed password entry (no :) [2007/07/26 14:10:15, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:getsmbfilepwent(391) getsmbfilepwent...

Running /usr/local/bin/smbstatus returns a similar error; # /usr/local/bin/smbstatus Processing section "[ccase]" Processing section "[vobstore]" Processing section "[viewstore]" Processing section "[aperl]" Processing section "[triggers]" Processing section "[distrib]" Processing section...

I seem to have managed to get round the previous error by enabling Asyncronous I/O (thanks!) but I now have another problem... The nmbd daemon still starts OK but smbd returns the following error; # /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D Abort(coredump) # I also get the following when trying to find out a...

Hi, Thanks for your reply! I'm afraid I don't really know what I'm looking for here. When I go into the "Change/show characteristics of Asynchronous I/O" the "State of fast path" field is set to enable. When I run the following command though it returns nothing; # lsdev -Cc postix_aio #...

I found a forum that asked me to try a few things in relation to my previous error; # lslpp -l bos.rte.libc Fileset Level State Description ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Path: /usr/lib/objrepos bos.rte.libc...

Sorry, I meant to say, when I tried to start the daemon manually I got the following error; # /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D Could not load program /usr/local/sbin/smbd: Dependent module libpopt.a(libpopt.so.0) could not be loaded. Could not load module libpopt.a(libpopt.so.0). System error...

Hi all, I'm trying to install and configure SAMBA on AIX 5.3 but can't start smbd. I've downloaded SAMBA 3.0.21 from the UCLA site below and extracted it successfully. I've also created my smb.conf file under the /etc directory and run testparm which seems to suggest everything is setup...

I have installed various versions of Samba (most recently the precompiles version from bullfreeware) but i keep getting the same error. /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd smbd –D exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd because of the following errors: 0509-150...

Thanks!

Excellent - thanks guys! I'll try putting it in these places and hopefully it will work!

Hi can anyone tell me if it's normal for no default smb.conf file to be created after installing samba v3.0.4.0 on AIX 5.1? I would expect a default file to be placed somewhere but it definitely does not exist. If this is normal does anyone know where the smb.conf file should be created? It...

Thanks fajum - I didn't realize it would be as straight forward as that! GM
