platforms provide is not always compatible. This chapter contains
platform-specific information about compiling and using samba.</P

>24.1. HPUX</H1
><P
>HP's implementation of supplementary groups is, er, non-standard (for
hysterical reasons). There are two group files, /etc/group and
/etc/logingroup; the system maps UIDs to numbers using the former, but
initgroups() reads the latter. Most system admins who know the ropes
symlink /etc/group to /etc/logingroup (hard link doesn't work for reasons
too stupid to go into here). initgroups() will complain if one of the
groups you're in in /etc/logingroup has what it considers to be an invalid
ID, which means outside the range [0..UID_MAX], where UID_MAX is (I think)
60000 currently on HP-UX. This precludes -2 and 65534, the usual 'nobody'
GIDs.</P
><P
>If you encounter this problem, make sure that the programs that are failing
to initgroups() be run as users not in any groups with GIDs outside the
allowed range.</P
><P
>This is documented in the HP manual pages under setgroups(2) and passwd(4).</P
><P
>On HPUX you must use gcc or the HP Ansi compiler. The free compiler
that comes with HP-UX is not Ansi compliant and cannot compile
Samba.</P

>24.2. SCO Unix</H1
><P
>
If you run an old version of SCO Unix then you may need to get important
TCP/IP patches for Samba to work correctly. Without the patch, you may
encounter corrupt data transfers using samba.</P
><P
>The patch you need is UOD385 Connection Drivers SLS. It is available from
SCO (ftp.sco.com, directory SLS, files uod385a.Z and uod385a.ltr.Z).</P

>24.3. DNIX</H1
><P
>DNIX has a problem with seteuid() and setegid(). These routines are
needed for Samba to work correctly, but they were left out of the DNIX
C library for some reason.</P
><P
>For this reason Samba by default defines the macro NO_EID in the DNIX
section of includes.h. This works around the problem in a limited way,
but it is far from ideal, some things still won't work right.</P
><P
>
To fix the problem properly you need to assemble the following two
functions and then either add them to your C library or link them into
Samba.</P
><P
>
put this in the file <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>setegid.s</TT
>:</P
><P
><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
> .globl _setegid
_setegid:
moveq #47,d0
movl #100,a0
moveq #1,d1
movl 4(sp),a1
trap #9
bccs 1$
jmp cerror

clrl d0
rts</PRE

>put this in the file <TT

moveq #47,d0
movl #100,a0
moveq #0,d1
movl 4(sp),a1
trap #9
bccs 1$
jmp cerror
1$:
clrl d0
rts</PRE
></P
><P
>after creating the above files you then assemble them using</P
><P
><B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>as seteuid.s</B
></P
><P
><B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>as setegid.s</B
></P
><P
>that should produce the files <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>seteuid.o</TT
> and
<TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>setegid.o</TT
></P
><P
>then you need to add these to the LIBSM line in the DNIX section of
the Samba Makefile. Your LIBSM line will then look something like this:</P
><P
><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>LIBSM = setegid.o seteuid.o -ln</PRE
></P
><P
>
You should then remove the line:</P
><P
><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>#define NO_EID</PRE
></P
><P
>from the DNIX section of <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>includes.h</TT

>24.4. RedHat Linux Rembrandt-II</H1
><P
>By default RedHat Rembrandt-II during installation adds an
entry to /etc/hosts as follows:
<PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
> 127.0.0.1 loopback "hostname"."domainname"</PRE
></P
><P
>This causes Samba to loop back onto the loopback interface.
The result is that Samba fails to communicate correctly with
the world and therefor may fail to correctly negotiate who
is the master browse list holder and who is the master browser.</P
><P
>Corrective Action: Delete the entry after the word loopback
in the line starting 127.0.0.1</P
