Issue
The The file may have been changed error message appears when you save an Excel file
to Samba. The error message also provides choices to either save a copy or overwrite
changes.
Workaround
When prompted, select overwrite changes otherwise the file must be saved under a different
name.
To avoid this error, change the registry as described in the Microsoft knowledge base article at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=324491
The Samba community also addressed the issue and has further characterized it on the Bugzilla
webpage at https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1094
Issue
Because of increased Windows security requirements, profile storing might fail if adequate authority
has not been configured for roaming profiles.
Issue
Some Windows 2000/2003 Domain trusts might not be recognized by HP CIFS Server, including
some intra/inter-forest trusts.
Workaround
When required to accommodate the intra/inter-forest trusts that HP CIFS Member Servers might
be exposed to in a forest, shortcut trusts can be explicitly created. HP CIFS PDCs support external
trusts, which can be sufficient for Samba and Windows inter-domain trust relationships. For more
information about Windows 2000/2003 trusts, see the MS TechNet documentation at http://
technet.microsoft.com.
Issue
An existing POSIX machine account must already exist before you add the corresponding Samba
machine account and the sambaSamAccount information required for HP CIFS Server machine
account authentication. You can use the useradd command to add the POSIX machine account
with $ at the end to the /etc/passwd file for HP CIFS Server to recognize it as a machine account.
If the POSIX machine account does not exist, running the pwck command displays the following
error message:
1 Bad character(s) in logname
Workaround
No workaround exists.
