Hi, I am using redhat 5.1 and want to print to an hp722c on a NT 4.0 box with service pack 3 installed. The printer works fine locally. I have created a win-printer spooler on the redhat machine as a SMB printer to a share on the NT machine called //bob/hp720. I created a printer on the NT machine called hp720 and shared it off as hp720 with the permissions everyone full control. The printer

While we do sync our /etc/passwd whenever /etc/smbpasswd is changed via the Samba sync option that does not seem to be possible the other way round: I just want a /etc/smbpasswd generated from my /etc/passwd with the correct passwords as used for the UniX login... Is that possible ? Regards, -- /(__ __|\ Lars Steinke, Research Student @ ( \/ __)_

Hi there, I have Samba 1.9.18p18 installed on Linux (S.u.S.E. 5.3). It is configured to act as a domain controler for the Windoze machines. One of my users, which can login from his Win95 (plain text password) without problems, wants to change his password from the Control Panel. But every time when he logs out after changing his password and re-logs in, the new password is refused by the

Has anyone implemented a "virtual cdrom" facility as offered on windows? That is CD images are cached & compressed on hard disk and shared across a network. See: http://www.winmag.com/library/1996/1196/11r24a.htm I have not found any news of a Unix solution. I would like to offer one on a Linux server to Windows clients. It should not be hard to implement with Samba... Thanks

I have Samba 3.0.0rc1 installed on a linux server DC-01 and it's configured as a PDC. The only share it has is netlogon. Users are stored in an LDAP passdb. All our users' home directories are on a second linux server, FS-01. It's been joined to the domain (command "sudo net join -U Administrator", which is the name of the "root" account). And here's a

In the release notes for 3.0.20rc1, I noticed the following: Changes since 3.0.15pre2 ------------------------ Parameter Name Action -------------- ------ ldap filter Removed I'm curious as to why this was removed and if there's another alternative. Our samba setup makes use of the ldap filter to restrict

Does anyone have perl code that can generate the Samba passwd hashes from a clear text password? I'm aware of the smbpasswd command that comes with Samba but that isn't the best tool for my purposes. I have a local account creation/deletion software that already handles encypting the password to generate unix /etc/passwd files and I need to be able to do the same for the Samba passwd

I'm trying to setup a samba PDC and I seem to be missing a few pieces in the puzzle. I've reached the point where I've tried joining an XP workstation to the domain (yes, I've applied 3 changes to the registry that have been mentioned numerous times on the list). The domain join appears to work fine - I get back a nice box from the Windows machine welcoming me to the domain.

I'm really desperate for some quick help in getting the samba-3.0.0beta3 compiled with ldap on Solaris 8.

I am having problems with samba and ldap as concerns groups. We have two central LDAP servers which we use for authentication for many different applications, samba being just one of those. The LDAP servers are Solaris servers running Directory Server v5.2. Our PDC is running samba 3.0.7 on linux. There are several file servers, but the main ones are running samba 3.0.7 on solaris and all

Hello! I know that this is not samba related, but may be some one knows a quick answer: When using profiles, stored on a well running samba-2.0.0beta2 PDC, the NT PC's cache the profile during a user session. As this profile is not deleted on the PC and we have a lot of users with only few PC's we need a lot of diskspace for this old profiles. Is there a way (Registry Key, ..) that

Hello, I have had several instances over the last month of Asterisk freezing, sometimes after 12 hours, sometimes after 8 days. The common elements are that: - all Zap channels lock[hangups don't register and no new calls in or out] - no new in/outbound calls can be made on Zap or SIP channels - people who are still connected to calls can continue to talk - in the CLI interface, you can

Hello Everybody ! We have a LAN network consisting mostly of Win NT machines, with a couple of Win 95 boxes and a IRIX-based Samba server. Is there a way that i can mount the file system of a NT box onto my IRIX box ? Can i write directly to a NT box from IRIX box ? Do i require NFS for that ? Thanks in advance !

I'm running Centos on 12 machines. Colleague runs Redhat Enterprise Linux and while studying his system, I see some gibberish/complication about his system being a "Client" install, not a "Server" install. Apparently, RH provides completely different disk sets for Server and Client installs. I've gone to the RH website and read about the difference between Client and

Listers: Am trying to compile Samba 3.0.2a on Solaris (9 - SPARC). After a bit of fiddling, we were encouraged, having finally gotten the configuration to work smoothly. (This was itself a major coup; glad to share config and results with anyone trying the same thing...) However, the 'make' command goes nuts, filling the filesystem (with almost 900 MB!) before dying with a 'no
