Hi, We are in the process of evaluating the possibility of porting Samba 3.0.4 to VxWorks. Features wise we don't see any problems. But our main concern is on the security. Since we do not have the concept of Users and Groups on VxWorks, we cannot have any authentications as such. So, the other possibility is to pass on the authentication to another Server on the network, typically a AD

Samba 3.0.6 I have successfully gotten other printers to work using the 'point-n-click' method for downloadable drivers. However, playing with one printer leads to failed results. I have created the CUPS port/printer, added it to samba and then used the Windows APW to upload the drivers. After upload, the print properties windows readjusts for the new printer options - I have checked

Hi all. I'm trying to use Samba to replace an old Windows print server, and everything works just like a charm - almost... There's one thing, which prevents my organization from accepting this new printerserver, and that is that I'm unable to activate and save the "Enable advanced printing features" setting for the printers - this is used to allow for printing multiple

we are running an older version of RH (7.3) - and I am getting concerned that I may need to migrate off of it - but I dont know what I should move to. Trying to formulate ideas before it becomes a 'got to do it now' scenario. I have some reservations about fedora - I just dont know how stable it is for a production server (our services are mainly samba/ldap/ntp/ssh/rsync/clamav) - we

I was doing good - getting close to rolling out a point-n-print samba/cups server when while uploading a driver file, I got some random windows error about the PRINT SUSBYSTEM was not available. After reconnecting to the samba server, the PRINTER share was gone. Uninstall the SAMBA RPM and re-install yielded nothing. I cant figure out what happened to it. any ideas?

Samba 3.0.9 SUSE 9.1 have a semi-working point-n-print server working, however when I try to add the drivers for a BROTHER 1850, windows explorer seems to crash and then when I try to edit the properties I get a protection fault error I can successfully add the printer (right click CONNECT) to other machines, but it doesnt print and it just fails with properties dialog as well thanks --

Just installed Xen 3 on FC5 that all went smooth following: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart I want to however create a FC4 virtual machine - I attepmpted to use the image at: http://jailtime.org but it doesnt seem to work (networking fail, most else works great) -- I am thinking that it is because those are for Xen 2 (??) So, is there another place to get images for Xen 3?

Hi, I have Samba up and running as well as winbind. I have ran some tests to confirm that yes indeed winbind is able to query the Windows NT 4.0 PDC for user/group/password information. However I am having difficulty understanding how to set shares up in samba so that I can apply permissions to them using my Windows user information rather than creating each user on samba with the same password

Hello all, I'm running Samba 3.5.5 on Debian 5, and following the documentation as closely as I can to install drivers using rpcclient. I first install the driver on a Windows 7 x65 workstation, then use rpcclient/smbclient to fetch the files. I then use smbclient to put those on the print$ share of the Samba server. So far, so good. Then I use rpcclient to add those files, and that

Hi. Samba 2.2.8. I have installed the drivers on the print$ share.

Hello, First of all my thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I'm still having an issue getting this network printer going. I'm now getting a windows error from explorer.exe, i've checked all the windows system, application, and security logs and of course the error is not in them. I then turned samba's debug level to 10, reloaded it and tried again to access the printer. This

Hello, I created a print server SERVIMP(*) with samba 2.2.8, i put all the printers at it. I installed the drivers one by one (win98 and win2k) using the APW of win2000.

Not thinking about migrating back due to issues, it is more due to implementation needs and a little situation I have been wrestling with with for a bit now, and would love some feedback First a little history: We currently have 10 locations connected via a dedicated 1/2 T-1. Last year I migrated from a WINNT domain to a Samba/LDAP domain. It has been running great. Basically did this for
