Hello, We would like more information on how to install the Samba suite. We are using SCO OpenServer Unix v 5.0 and want to interface with Windows NT 4.0 & Windows 98 clients. Note : We have downloaded the entire package from your site and tried to install it, but the first step (configuring Samba) couldn't be carried out as we could not locate the ".configure" file. The downloaded package contained "configure.in" . Kindly reply, it will help a lot. regards, Vikram.

Hi, ok i was told by my teacher that the newer version of samba i.e. version 3 will be a perfect clone of active directory and it will have all the features that active directory domains have. so tell me if this is true. can a samba version 3 server act like a ACTIVE directory based windows domain controller? and also if u can tell me that the domain policies defined by a windows active directory domain controller will remain undisturbed if it is replaced by a samba server. like if i was restricted from accessing the networl folder of one of my teacher which contains the question paper for tomorrow exam , will i still be unable to access it or the permissions will go crazy and i would be able to access it. plz inform me more about how the concept of a active directory domain and permissions have been incorporated or not incorporated into the new version of samba waiting for ur replies Sahibzada Junaid Noor Ph # (+92) (051) 5950 940 Cell # (+92) (0333) 5223586 Qazi plaza,Third Floor,Commerical Market,Chaklala Scheme 3, Rawalpindi Islamic Republic of Pakistan --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?

Hiya, Me thinks your teacher was telly porkies. Samba 3 can not act as an Active Directory. You can do some policies but this has to be done though an NT 4 syle policy file. ACL will work aslong as the underlying filesystem can support them. If you want to find out how samba works, I suggest you buy a book or look at the Samba-HOWTO.
