hello all, I am building a network system using Samba 3.5 on Debian Squeeze and Windows 2003 workstations. I have properly configured my samba PDC, and that's working correctly. I am using an external LDAP to store the credentials. I also wanted to use roaming profiles, and I have properly configured this. That's working well for me, using Windows 2003 work stations. I'll soon

I have some shares on a media server that are considdered "Local, offline content", namely they should be accessible if the rest of the network is down, and each system has it's own group of users who are allowed to maintain it. the media servers in the livingroom are only for my wife and I, but each person can modify the one in their own bedroom and noone elses bedroom.

I have a purely samba domain: samba PDC, BDC, and a collection of clustered member servers that provide CIFS access to our underlying file system. Things are working fine, with the exception of users being able to set ACLS from Windows workstations. When they try to do so, they can search for and properly find domain members, but when they try to apply the changes, the settings simply vanish

so I have some local users that I'd like to show up in my samba domain a bit more properly, but it's infeasable to add their accounts to the ldap directory proper. I've tried to create an idmap entry (probably wrong) and a structural SID with a sam account pointing to the numeric UID and a proper name for the unix account, but it still shows up as UNIX-USER/accountname. what am

Hi, I''ve been working the past 8 hrs combatting DDoS attacks on websites and dedicated servers I host for clients. They''re hitting one specific IP address, but coming from thousands of external IP addresses. I use: shorewall-4.0.10-3.noarch How can I tackle this? I''ve blocked many subnets in the blacklist file but it''s made very little difference. If

I found a fancy, easy (seeming) way to add printer drivers in windows 7 since the old methods don't seem to work anymore. if you run mmc, you can add a snapin called print management, which enables you to manage various things (drivers, forms, ports, and printers to be most important). Problem is, I can't figure out how to use the "Drivers" method to add drivers. I get a

I would like to dnat certain protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, SSH) to the contents of an ipset (lan:+serviceshost or similar) where the ipset is ensured to contain only one host, but can be changed dynamically when services are in maintenance mode and go to the "services are down" message on another server. Will this work, or am I barking up a fish here?

OK, there has got to be a way to work with this thing other than wiping the Domain every time an error pops up. Trying to resolve problems I did a git upgrade and: setup# /usr/local/samba/sbin/upgradeprovision Which provided the unhelpful: Found 3 domain controllers, for the moment upgradeprovision is not able to handle upgrade on domain with more than one DC, please demote the other(s)

Hello all listies. I've got samba4.0.6 running on FreeBSD 9.1. Joined W2K12 domain as member server. running getent group I noticed it takes a long time to resolve groups. The result is correct, but it is inordinately long. With 3.6.13 on FreeBSD 9.1 the return is nearly instantaneous. smb4.conf looks like this. [global] workgroup = TMS3 security = ADS realm = TMS3.COM encrypt

Hmmm...not quite sure where to go to fix this up.

Nor does the DNS name as it can have more than one DNS name. You need to work with Samba as a somewhat separate entity. It is simply easier to match

Hello all How do you allow someone in a particular group (i.e. the group writers in my example below) other than the creator of a file (the owner) to set a document as being read only? This is the only problem I am facing with my samba shares at the mo which I need to fix, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Hope this makes sense!

Just thought I'd say that samba4 is working quite nicely. Samba4 DC on Ubuntu server. Added a W2k3R2 and W2k8R2 server as DC's. Took a little bit of play to get it done, but not much. The only thing I've noticed so far (still in early lab stage) is a GC issue. Now if I can upgrade a Samba3-LDAP domain.... Cheers, TMS III

Having some issues with: samba_dnsupdate Specifically: /usr/bin/nsupdate: cannot specify -g or -o, program not linked with GSS API Library I've looked through the script, and cannot find these options called. If anyone can point me to where they're called I'd appreciate it. Cheers, TMS III

Hello everyone, I have a Samba 3.4.7 + OpenLDAP working as PDC. Since this morning, some computers, mainly the ones with Windows 7, are getting trust relationship problems and I cannot find the source of the problem. All my windows boxes do automatic updates, and there was a pack of 9 or 10 updates yesterday, but i don't know if this have some relation with the problem. I don't know
