Samba for MPE/iX Services
Troubleshooting Samba for MPE/iX Server
• Verify files created by PC user are owned by correct MPE/iX
username and account
• Verify full file read and create access to the user’s default home
share.
2. Configure Samba for MPE/iX in Share security mode and set
passwords on file shares.
• Verify that the file and print access from PC users works.
3. Configure Samba for MPE/iX in Server security mode, pointing user
validation to a NT server.
• Verify that the users logged into the Windows NT domain being
used as a validation server have the appropriate access to shares
and printing on Samba for MPE/iX.
4. Perform PC connectivity and file/print access tests with SMBD and
NMBD in daemon mode (for example, started from MPE/iX jobs
JSMB and JNMB) as well as started from INETD as services.
5. Verify that all functionality works when the daemons or services are
running as the default mgr.samba. If any functionality does not
work, check to see if any changes are needed in the default
capabilities of mgr.samba.
