[SOLVED] Samba fail when in VPN

I'm trying to use smbnetfs to automount our corporate samba shares when I'm VPNed in via VPNC. I have been unable to gain access to samba shares when physically outside of the network. If I plug in my laptop to corporate switch, shares are mounted. When I VPN in from the outside, nothing. Can someone shed some light on this? Only thing I can think of is I get a local IP assigned (192.168.80.0 subnet) when I plug in physically to the network and maybe that is causing samba to refuse connection? But when I VPN in I connect to the gateway so I should be seen as local. Not sure what to do next.
Thanks for the help.

As a test, I installed gvfs-smb package for Nautilus and after reboot was able to mount my share. At that point, it was clear it was doable so after some reading, mount -t cifs //<ip>/<share> did the trick
Edit: Still does not auto-mount with smbnetfs but at least I have access to my environment

  • [solved]script fails when changing profile through powerdevil.

    i use ondemand governor and i want to change up_threshold value.
    Whenever i change profile through powerdevil up_threshold gets its default vaule of 80.
    what i did was to create a script named threshold containing the lines:
    #!/bin/bash
    sudo sh -c 'echo 50 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold'
    i have also set through /etc/sudoers that this script is passwordless for my user.
    if i run the script, it successfully changes the value. It also runs successfully if i put it in startup.
    My problem is that it fails to run when i choose it to run when a profile loads through powerdevil. I am refering to the feature shown below :
    at first i thought that this function has a problem. so i chose to run kate, and when i changed profile, kate started immediately. So i guess that there is a problem with my script.
    Any ideas?

    I hope someone reads this thread also its already marked as solved...
    Anyway, i would like to use CPU frequency scaling, but in the powermanagement settings,
    i cant shoose anything for frequency scaling.
    What do i have to do to be able to set "ondemand" or "always lowest frequency"?
    Wich daemons and/or modules do i have to activate to change the frequency policy?
    Would be very nice if someone could help me.

  • [SOLVED]Get [FAIL] when loading user specified modules.

    That is it, when the system is booting i get a [FAIL] message when loading user specified modules after upgrading udev, and the kmod new module handling or something as say in the news. I dont have a modprobe.conf or a modprobe.conf.pacsave file either and creating a modprobe.conf file doesn't solve the problem. The strange thing is that the modules are loaded anyways. I mean the ones that are specified in rc.conf. I dont know if the system [FAIL] to load that modules or others...The system works fine for now too.
    Thanks.
    PD: sorry if you notice my poor english.

    I had the same problem and removing the governor performance from rc.conf solved the problem. I tried however to remove both governors and only leave powernow-k8 (this is the only one that works for me) leaving rc.conf like this:
    MODULES=(brcmsmac powernow-k8)
    When I boot the laptop and check which governors are available and being used I get the following:
    [netlak@soulrebel ~]$ cpufreq-info
    cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009

    CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
    CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
    maximum transition latency: 8.0 us.
    hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.10 GHz
    available frequency steps: 2.10 GHz, 1.50 GHz, 800 MHz
    available cpufreq governors: performance
    current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.10 GHz.
    The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
    within this range.
    current CPU frequency is 2.10 GHz.
    This like as if the ondemand governor would not be available but when unplugging the laptop and check again I get this:
    [netlak@soulrebel ~]$ cpufreq-info
    cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
    Report errors and bugs to [email protected], please.

    The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
    within this range.
    current CPU frequency is 800 MHz.
    This shows that the ondemand module can be autoloaded when needed, so I leave rc.conf only with powernow-k8.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How do I solve "import failed" when trying to import folders to the organizer?

    When I try to import folders to the organizer I get an "import failed" message.  Then it says that files or folders selected did not contain any supported file types or they are already in the catalog.  I don't think it can be the latter because I just installed it today and haven't been able to import any files or folders.  Can anyone give me troubleshooting ideas; I can't find any in the help menus.  Thanks a bunch!!

    The JPG data might be corrupted just enough for PSE to choke on the image, although other programs can open the image OK.  Try opening one of the images in XnView, for instance, and saving that image; which will re-write the JPG data correctly.  Then see if Organizer can import it.

  • Why does user authentification fail when opening VPN

    When trying to open VPN on my mini Ipad I get the above message. Can anyone tell me  how to fix this?

    Hello,
    it could be that you have license to have only one remote panel at once.. and perhaps that first connection does not get destroyed properly before opening a new browser window.. Though that should not cause the crash you described. Which version of the LabVIEW Dev suite to you have? See the link below:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/C23829DB3D00486A86256D5E00707FB2?OpenDocument
    Also, is the VI for that front panel reentrant?

  • [Solved] Xorg fails when using Vmware.

    I've recently ran into a problem with ArchLinux running as a guest in VMware,
    I'd try load xorg and it would crash so I thought I'd install another version of ArchLinux in another machine.
    All went well until I installed
    xf86-video-vmware & svga-dri & open-vm-tools and added # MODULES = (... vmwgfx ...)
    So I'm finding it hard to figure out if this is a common issue (I've googled around and couldn't find anything), or something to do with one of the packages I've installed.
    Suggestions as to what I can do to fix this problem would be appreciated,
    Thanks and have a nice day.

  • Time Machine Fails when VPN is Active

    Running Cisco VPN that allows local access to my 192.168 network with no problem for other applications. However, Time Machine fails to find my local NAS drive when the VPN is active. The NAS and MBP are on the same subnet. Any thoughts or reasons why this is occurring and how to resolve the issue?
    Thanks.

    If you're using the Cisco client built-in to OSX, be sure that "Send all traffic over VPN" is disabled. With the client from Cisco, I think the checkbox is called something like "Allow local LAN access." Be sure that that is enabled.
    Note that this setting can be overridden by the VPN administrator, and often is. (Usually for security or company policy reasons.) So do not be surprised if the checkboxes have no effect for you. If that is the case, then you'll have to speak to the VPN administrator to see if they'll make an exception.

    Amr Azim,
    You must have logged in thru a dedicated connection to any server through say VPN before deploying.This way the sdm uses the same login as that of already establised connection.
    So 'sign of'  all connections to any servers before deploying and redeploy your application.Here you will be prompted to supply the sdm password and deployment shall proceed.

  • BUG: Playback Fails When Loading A Random Video - Firmware 1.2

    I've been looking all over on where to post a bug, and for a fix for this bug I found. Not many seem to be having this problem (I assume not many are trying to randomly play a video from a video playlist)
    BUG: Playback Fails When Loading A Random Video
    iPod FIRMWARE: 1.2
    PROBLEM (1): When pressing "Play" on a video playlist or on 'Music Videos' while the iPod is set to Random->Song, the iPod displays a white playback screen, displays song 0 of 0, empty duration bar and a duration time of 0:00/-0:00.
    PROBLEM (2): After successful playing a seleted video within a video playlist or music video list, the iPod attempts to play a randomly choosen video (HDD clicks abnormally) but times-out and returns the user to the Playlist selection screen.
    iPod MODEL: 60GB Video - Black [Bought in NOV 05]
    If anyone knows how to report a bug, or anyone else having this problem (Try it on you iPod, post your results!) let me know!

    I've been looking all over on where to post a bug...If anyone knows how to report a bug let me know!

  • WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds parti

    WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds partial results.
    We have scheduled reports which take some time to run. When they are scheduled they sometimes show successful even though the report only holds partial results. The only indication is when you open the report as webi report you see the warning that it holds partial results.
    When running the report manually, it works file.
    The issue is not in the no of rows in the universe settings because we this unselected. The issue is that it times out.
    The reason that it times out is that a lot of resources are used for loading and processing data when the report is scheduled. When running it manually, it works because at this time the serverload is less. the time in the universe is set to 10 min.
    The version we have is BOXIR2-SP4.
    Ok. Issue identified.
    The question is - why is the report successful when it holds partial results? If this is normal behavior, noone can really trust the scheduled reports, especially when you save it to excel and send it by mail.
    Is there a solution for this except increasing the allowed query time which would not solve the issu but only allow more reports to complete?

    Hi ,
    Currently this problem exists in XI R2. This feature will be part of thenext Service Pack i.e XI R2 SP6.
    This CER will be delivered from IDC Webi and BIP Platform as part of Jupiter Sp6.
    Problem Statement:
         Scheduled WebI Reports which are partially refreshed are distributed to the destinations for Users to View and make decisions. These users arenu2019t usually aware that these reports have u201CPARTIAL RESULTSu201D
    Recomended Solution:
        Allow the Schedule Creator / Modifier to set a parameter to stop the distribution of the u201CPARTIALLY REFRESHEDu201D WebI report.

  • [SOLVED] Samba: Can browse shared folders, but can't open files

    Hi all, I've been using Samba to share some folders from my Arch box over the local network, and have not had any issues until just now. As the title says, I am able to browse (via Samba, both on a different device and from the Arch box itself) the folders being shared as well as see their contents, but trying to open a file fails, as does attempting to create a file in one of the shared folders. Accessing the files from the computer itself directly (not via Samba) works fine.
    The error given by Thunar when trying to create a file is simply:
    Failed to create empty file "test file".
    Invalid argument.
    Trying to read a file results in the same "invalid argument" error being given by the app that should open the file.
    I've removed Samba and reinstalled, following the steps on the wiki to get it set up. Still have the issue.
    Further, I only seem to be able to add shares via the smb.conf file - previously I was able to share folders via Thunar or the net usershare command, but now those also give an error:
    $ net usershare add tmp /tmp "tmp" everyone:F guest_ok=y
    net usershare add: cannot convert name "everyone" to a SID. Undetermined error.
    Any ideas on what could be causing the problems would be greatly appreciated!
    edit: my smb.conf file:
    # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
    # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed

    # Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
    # is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
    # for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
    # may wish to enable

    It seems your Samba is denying access to these files & dirs. My best guess would be that either the Samba user is not allowed to write (and read) those (in which case you'd have to modify the permissions accordingly) or Samba sets, when the share is mounted, the permissions such that your user is not allowed to read and write (you may in this case try to just set permissions for you to allow you what you want to do; or use "create mask" or "directory mask" or "writable" in your samba config. ).
    Also, what do the logs say about this? According to your samba conf they are in /var/log/samba/%m.log where %m is the hostname or IP.

    This is an error due to conversion failed from character string to int datatype. Infact, the table column contains "NO" value which you are trying to convert to Int/SUM which is illegal. Without your code and table structure, its difficult to pinpoint your
    actual issue. But check, all columns for value "NO".
