[Samba] Samba 2.2.3a + Windows XP - Office 2K & Messenger Crashes
Hi,
I have a samba server running for about 2 years and now I updated the server
to RH 7.2 + All Updates and samba-2.2.3a. We have about 40 win98 boxes
running without any problems.
Now I'm trying to configure WinXP pro boxes, I've already managed to
connect
them to the domain, but I'm having very weird problems using Office 2K and
Windows Messenger. When I logon using an administrator account everything
works as expected, but when I try to logon using any ordinary user accounts
and start windows messenger it crashes silently, and when I start the any
Office application, it is closed just after the application starts.
look at my smb.conf below:
# smb.conf

[Samba] Samba 2.2.3a + Windows XP - Office 2K & Messenger Crashes
I don't think this is related to samba, but as my workplace is also infected
with microsoft, I was gonna offer some help. Do the users you are logging in as
have administrative rights? If not, have you tried to use office as an
admistrator? If not, you need to. When you first open office 2000, it asks you
if you want to register the copy with microsoft. !!ONLY!! An administrator on
that computer can answer that question because it writes the answer into a
protected section of the registry, whether you answer yes or no. If you
don't do that, and try to use office as a non-administrator, when it checks
the registry to see if that was answered, it sees that value doesn't exist,
so it will either just close, or keep asking the person to answer if they want
to register it with microsoft. So all you have to do is login as an
administrator and answer either yes or no, and then it should work fine. (if
that's the problem) This is the TOP call microsoft recieves on their office
support number. :)

[Samba] Samba 2.2.3a + Windows XP - Office 2K & Messenger Crashes
Oh yeah..forgot about this one too. :) I actually ran into this one. I
couldn't find my companies cd-key for office (the truth) and was hoping to
cut a corner and ran into this. So I just had to dig up the original cd and
re-install. :) Or install star office :)

Crashes
I agree this is not a Samba issue, but it sounds suspiciously similar to the
problem that arises as a result of using a <gasp> bootleg copy of Office
2K. Here is the details of the cause, and the fix...
From:
www.astwood.com/tech/Microsoft/office_quit.asp
Office quits immediately after startup
The information in this article applies to:
Office 2000
SR-1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
This article describes how to fix the problem where Office 2000 quits
immediately after startup after SR-1 has been installed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAUSE
Office was installed by using a CD key that begins with GC6J3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOLUTION
Locate your valid product CD Key, which is located on the back of the original
CD case.
If the product CD Key begins with GC6J3, the Product Key is not valid in
Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1/SR-1a. Get a working key
On the Start menu, click Run.
In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
In Registry Editor, find the following subkey (folder):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Click the plus sign (+) next to this folder. If you see only one subkey in this
folder that has a 32-character {GUID} (globally unique identifier), select that
subkey and go to step 5.
Find the key with the name: {GUID}: {00000409-78E1-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7}
DisplayName: Microsoft Office 2000 Premium
Select the ProductID string value in the right pane.
On the Edit menu, click Rename.
Type OldProductID and then press ENTER.
On the Registry menu, click Exit.
Start any Office program.
When the Microsoft Office 2000 User Information dialog box appears, type your
valid product CD Key
Hope this helped...
