similar to: samba 2.2.8a W2K policies

Hi, We are considering samba 3.0.1 as a replacement for our old-hag Windows NT4.0 Server PDC. However, we do want some policy control, and from the samba 3.0.0 documentation (23.3), it says the only current functional policy is the password expirey. Is this still true in samba 3.0.1? Can an NT4.0 server be a backup domain controller to samba 3.0.1 PDC? That way we can keep the NT4 machine

Hi! I have to migrate a samba domain to an Active Directory and therefore I need as first step to have a NT4.0 BDC in my network. As I don't find an useful answer via google I want to ask you if a NT4 BDC will work in a Samba PDC enviroment? regards Martin

There is OBVIOUSLY something wrong somewhere. EITHER a WHOLE bunch of us are stupider than we thought, the documentation left off a step, or there is something SO blatently obvious that we are ALL staring it in the face and missing it inches in front of our faces. This is exactly what I've had, (BUT I *D*I*D* have it running ok ...) and I STILL havent figured it out yet,... Subject:

Hello again, Thanks James for your replies. In regards to the slow read/write, the software vendor is aware of the problem, at some stage they will buffer the read/write, but it won't happen overnight, the binary file is quite complicated. So there are no updates available for this particular issue and I don't expect any for a couple of months. The software in question can generate

I try to admin Samba 3.0.0 and 3.0.1pre3 (tried both versions) NT4.0 PDC with NT4.0 machine and NT4.0 USRMGR.EXE and get persistent error message 1) The group name could not be found 2) The user name could not be found 3) The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. Loggin into domain under name: root I can see the user and group listing. When I click on a user to see his

Printing from NT4.0 clients to Samba 2.2.3a using the NT4.0 drivers from HP works fine for me, my only problem has been with W2K clients using the W2K drivers from HP. The drivers from www.hp.com appear to be level 3 drivers, that is where they install, and they are downloaded by W2K drivers if they are available when the NT4.0 drivers are also available. Now, whether these drivers from HP are

This is not SAMBA directly related at present. Having trouble getting NT4.0 server to create domain from fresh install. Plan on using Linux/Samba box as backup controller -- any hints (will also do e-mail). TIA Dave

Good evening, On the bottom of page 53, section 4.1.2.2 in the SNIA spec (http://www.snia.org/tech_activities/CIFS/CIFS-TR-1p00_FINAL.pdf), it states if the dialect is NT LM 0.12 and extended security is off (I.e., use "traditional" NTLMv2/NTLMv2 authentication w/o SecurityBlobs), the SessionSetupAndX response is as shown in section 4.1.2.2 with a word count = 4. However, what I have

Kristyan (and all) I just searched the samba website, and I couldnt find any reference to spnego except for a slide show (samba-lwny.ag ) that I can't open. ANYWAY. since I can't find any reference to the spnego parameter, could someone explain what it is, what it does, and HOW it can help us "stupid" people? It doesnt seem to be a parameter I've come across before..

Hello to all, This is my first ever use of a mailing list so bear with my ramblings and illiterate prose. I have been using samba from 2.03 to 2.07 for over a year now. We run DHCP, WINS on the samba (acting as domain) box running Mandrake 6.0. Windows machines are running everything from Win95 up to Win2K. With Win2K I have problems with slow read/write, particularly for one application

Dear All, I've seen the PRINTER_DRIVER.txt doc on getting the PRINTER$ share set up to automatically add printer drivers to Win95 clients. It explicitly says that the procedure described does not work for NT4.0 clients. I can't find any other documentation on setting up a PRINTER$ share suitable for NT4.0 or NT2000 clients either in the distribution (2.0.5a) or the web site. Is this

Hi, I have a Samba server Version 3.0.14a-2. It has been working flawlessly for close to a year. I utilize winbindd to a NT4.0 domain to authenticate users to my Samba shares. All of a sudden, the shares are no longer accessible to Windows machines. An ls on an example directory shows: drwxrws--- 15 root 10000 4096 Dec 6 11:21 AC_Manuals This is wierd because the 10000 should show

I have Samba 1.9.17p2 and it works great on NT4.0 SP2 When I update to NT4.0SP3, my Samba connection gives me the following message: The account is not authorized to login from this station. Did something change? Maybe NT4.0 SP3 uses a smb.conf option that wasn't used before? I've installed the package version from the Solaris 2.5 web site. I'm actually running Solaris 2.5.1

Hi All, When I copied one file from NT4.0 to Linux through samba with 'copy' command in NT4.0, the file was always corrupted. Size of the file copied into Linux was always about 4G. If I copied it through Windows Explorer, it was OK. It seems samba cannot process the "Write Raw" request sent by 'copy' command correctly when file size is larger than 4G bytes. Thanks

I've studied the books, searched the list archives, etc. I suspect there is someone who can just tell me one thing to tweek, so I humbly beg your advice. Situation: I am playing with/learning Linux, intending to replace our two company Netware servers sometime in the next 6 months. At home, I have an NT4.0/SPC PDC, an NT4.0/SP6 docked laptop, and an HP server with RH7.1 or 7.2 (2.4.??

All, I've built Samba 2.2.2 environments on two Sun(solaris8) boxes. The user community here is a split between NT4.0, XP and W2K. My NT4.0(myself included) and XP users can map to all shares located on my Unix boxes with no problem..ie. they can see them by viewing entire network and selecting the correct host ,etc...and by Explorer,Map Network Drive, Browse, selecting Host and then choosing
