Could somebody tell me what is wrong. When I try to give permission to a share made under Win98 to specific user (Samba works as Domain Controller and Win98 logs into DOMAIN) there is an error - user list is unreachable - try later - This is translation from my language so this isn't exact error message. Samba works as Domain Controller and WINS server. Thanks Szmoyn.

If I want to make two servers use the same encrypted passwords can I share the smbpasswd file via NFS? Will updates/locking work correctly? Is there an alternative? Can LDAP/PAM use encrypted passwords? -- Gary Algier, WB2FWZ gaa@@ulticom.com +1 856 787 2758 Ulticom Inc., 1020 Briggs Rd, Mt. Laurel, NJ 08054 Fax:+1 856 866 2033 A self-addressed envelope

Is there any way to prevent users from mapping drive letters to Samba shares? We are constantly getting user problems like: "I can't find my files on my F: drive. Please restore it". They expect us to know where their F: drive was mapped. We try to show users how to use UNCs and shortcuts, but I would like to prevent mapped drives. There is another reason to prevent them:

Hi: I am haviong problems with Landscape mode on our HP printers (many models). I am running 2.2.7a on two different servers. One is using the "old style" printing (using "printer driver file" parameter). The other is using the newer printing system. It is the same code on both. Both are Solaris systems. For the old one, the drivers are installed on the client, for the

Hello I'm using the ISC-dhcp 3.0pl1 + pxe patch (from http://savannah.gnu.org/download/pxe-toolkit/) and pxelinux as the loader program. It turns out that in my configuration pxelinux specific DHCP options are sent out by the server encapsulated within vendor extension option (option 43, RFC 1533). Currently pxelinux cannot parse this correctly (the full option 43 with it's contents is

I am trying to run multiple instances of samba on the same unix host. This is being done so that I can functionally breakdown the usage into, for example, a "finance" server and an "engineering" server. This is not based upon the client or the user, but based upon the virtual server. My first attempts were a real problem in that, though the config file could be specified on

I am trying to switch over to the new "style" of printing, but when I do, I loose the ability to print duplex. I have two servers. The old one (spike) is setup as a file server, etc. and the print services date back to the early 2.0 days. It is currently running 2.2.2 with the original printer setup. The printing works ok with this server. People can print using features of the

Hi all; On OS Hardening ( http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/OS_Protection ) there's a section on "Physical Protection" that includes requiring a single-user mode password. There's four lines that look something like this: echo "Require the root pw when booting into single user mode" >> /etc/inittab echo "~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin" >> /etc/inittab echo

Well. I resolved this problem by reinstalling all Red Hat but I'm intrested what was the problem. I have 2 computers one with Windows 98 and one with RH 7.1 with Samba (I tried this with 2 ver 2.0.7 and 2.2.2). I could connect to Linux share from Linux using smbclient. I also could connect do Win98 from Linux machine. I could see Linux machine in Network Neighborhood, but when I tried to map

Hello All: I have a Samba server (running 3.0.11) that uses an LDAP SAM for authentication. We now have AD (native mode) running in house. Since everyone has a login there, I would like to use the AD credentials for authentication. However, I would like to continue to use the Unix user ids and group ids, etc. All the documentation for AD authentication talks about ID mapping, etc. I don't

Hello everyone, I''m quite a newbie with Xen and I''m currently having an issue. I run Xen 4 on Debian Squeeze x64 and I''m trying to build an OpenFiler DomU from the Xen domU filesystem tarbal they provide (See http://www.openfiler.com/community/download/).

Hi out there, i intend to run multiple Instancies of Samba on a single, multi-homed, server, with each instance bound to a specific (logical) interface. If this works, it would be fine to me. Mainly for administrative Reasons. (You won't believe, but from time to time it becomes necessary to restart some services, but restarting the entire server is a real mess) Well here my

Hello, I am running Samba 3.0.2 with Cups support. Recently I set this up on a new server, shut down the old Samba 2.* server, changed the name and brought up the new server as our new print server. Everyone automatically had all their drivers "upgraded", even when they previously had special local drivers installed. They did not need to delete and re-double-click the printer icon on

I think pam_smbpass it is not initializing all the parameters from smb.conf. This exhibits itself as "Cannot access samba password database" messages in the syslog.

Does anyone have any idea how Solaris PC-Netlink compares to Samba? It seems to support ACLs (does Samba?) Also, how do they both do on the subject of being a domain controller? What I am looking for is ACL support (I am getting tired of making every possible combination of groups to deal with user needs). I also want LDAP support whereby changing the passwd from an NT system changes both the

I am trying to upgrade a samba installation from 2.2.7 to 3.0.9 and I have statements like: include = /etc/samba/special/%U This works fine with 2.2.7, but fails with 3.0.[4679].
