Description traderbeckola 2014-03-02 22:46:10 UTC
Created attachment 869708 [details]
standard perl script from samba-4.1.5.tar.gz with minor modification

Description of problem:

The findsmb command is missing from the fedora distribution of samba.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 20.  Both i686 and x86_64

How reproducible:

Always




Steps to Reproduce:
install samba (for example):

samba-common-4.1.5-1.fc20.i686
samba-libs-4.1.5-1.fc20.i686
samba-4.1.5-1.fc20.i686
samba-client-4.1.5-1.fc20.i686

run findsmb
also try 'locate findsmb'
or 'which findsmb'

Actual results:

findsmb command not found either by any of these methods


Expected results:

Something like:

IP ADDR         NETBIOS NAME   WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION 
---------------------------------------------------------------------
192.168.1.202    ministry.funnywalks.com

Additional info:

Attached is standard findsmb from the stock samba 4.1.5 source distribution on samba.org.  Only modification was to change file location of nmblookup to right spot for fedora.

Comment 1 traderbeckola 2015-01-08 11:34:38 UTC
Still seems to be an issue in Fedora 21.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 11:07:29 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 19:12:49 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 4 Jan Kurik 2015-07-15 14:42:17 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 5 traderbeckola 2015-12-05 14:52:09 UTC
Just checked my installation of Fedora 23. This bug does indeed still impact Fedora 23.

Thanks,

Erik

Comment 6 Andreas Schneider 2016-06-08 13:42:09 UTC
Will be fixed with Samba 4.5.0

Comment 7 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 04:18:14 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.
