I need to replace a Windows 2000 Server with a Samba box. The W2K is the only domain controller in the network and it runs Active Directory. I know the Samba-3 limitations as an Active Directory Domain Controller, but I don't need absolutely all the features. What I would ideally need is: * Single Sign On * .adm policy files support (for client security and use restrictions - clients are

...looks like a new call, and as far as i can see there is no way to differentiate between a new call and a transferred one.

hi, does anybody know about the following situatuion and it's solution ? we configured an samba3 as pdc - sure in the way it was often described. but if we login on a windowsXP as domainmember (member of the admin group) it seems like we do not really have full administrator-permissions. we can add useres and can do some other tasks only an administraor is allowed to do. but some stuff

I've set up a test Samba PDC with a few test shares. From the first Windows PC I logged on to a local computer account and mapped drives to the shares on the Samba PDC.

Both arrangements above appear to meet my

Hi all! I'm going mad about getting my shares mapped to my win2k and winXP machines from my Samba PDC Version 3.0.2 on Debian. Win-machines doesn't seem to execute logon.bat at all, except when i log on as root. I've set the ownership and chmod 0775 all logon.bat files to eatch user on my network. Am i just blind or are there something obvious/very wrong with my config? my smb.conf

Hi folks, I have two samba hosted domains at two different offices. I would like them to use the same LDAP backend so that the accounts are exactly the same. Unfortunately, it seems that a users SID is linked to the domain that created it, so another domain cannot authenticate the user, even if it can see it in the LDAP directory, because the user SID doesn't match the domain. My first

Has anyone goten Samba 3.0.4 to work correctly as a PDC with an smbpasswd back ground (not pam or ldap). If so could you please send me a working copy of your SMB file (only core components needed, no need for shares or

Hello, After a great deal of tweaking, I finally got the Samba server working, so that it would accept domain logins. However, the problem I now have regards roaming profiles, which refuse to function. After successfully authenticating the user, the following 2 messages appear: Message 1: ---------- Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on
