...wever, it seems like most installations modify the registry and seem to demand a client-by-client installation. Am I missing something on this? Can someone provide me some hints or references to help this? (And is anyone thinking about a SMS/ZEN type package for Samba/Unix?) Thanks, Bill -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

Is there any way to set up a backup WINS specification in dhcp/Win NT/Samba? Having my WINS server go down the last few days made this a little more desirable, especially since when I noticed the service was dead, I wasn't able to reboot it for a few hours due to usage. Thanks, Bill -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

I can't seem to make the fax detection work.

I am appending some documentation by my colleague Bill Eldridge that was actually written for our dial-up service, but should work for you purposes as well. A couple notes. 1.)The user must exist in /etc/passwd on the Samba machine or login to the Samba box will fail. 2.)In the example, we don't set up home directories for the users, we are using it fo...

Hi- I've been trying to setup an rsync server on a WinXP box so that I can sync files between my desktop and laptop. I'm starting rsync as: rsync --server --daemon --no-detach . from a command prompt. but I can never connect to it -- even "telnet localhost 873" doesn't work. It seems that rsync is listening on stdin, rather than listening on a socket. When I type at it

...it works consistently? I was trying to stick to centralized server configs, trying to avoid any Win client lmhost files, with at most a WINS & use NetBIOS over TCP/IP change, but at this point I'm willing to cash in for something that works consistently every time. Thanks, Bill -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

...s PDC in both their smb.confs, had no participation in domain browsing, etc., etc. The only thing I had running was Net Logons (which I thought was needed to have a Samba dial-in allow domain logins, but after I turned it off, I realize I'm wrong. Why would Net Logons take over PDC? -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

...tional better substitute. Also, it's very good to encourage people to upgrade to recent releases. It's amazing the number of "Can't run 1.7.6beta on RedHat 3.9" bugs get reported.

Hi. I have Samba set up to serve W95 PCs. Kids "log in to the network" using their Unix password. Students get their Unix home dir mounted as network drive X: when login is successful. This all happens on IP subnet 192.168.1.1/24 So far, so good. We are thinking about adding another IP subnet - say 192.168.2.1/24. Of course, the two subnets will be connected with a router. It

...machines properly, but upgrading to the newest drivers at 3Com's web site fixes the problem. No changes to any of the configuration settings. I don't know what other cards have this problem, but ALWAYS upgrade to the most bug-free version of a driver and software before giving up. -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

Hello, I have a script on a production system at work that mounts an NT-exported share for NFS re-export to some NFS-only clients. The system was RedHat-4 and samba 1.9, and used the following style command line (names have been changed to protect the innocent :-) smbmount //host/share /mnt/point -c HOST -U user -P passwd \ -u nobody -g nobody -f 666 -d 777 Now the system has been upgraded to

If asterisk is running as a daemon (started with no command line options), can I reconnect to it and get the vvverbose info in the console? In other words, will asterisk -rvvvc work? Sorry to ask.... I would just try it to see if it works, but I don't have an installation handy and have to do some remote troubleshooting soon. ThanksE+06. D. __________________________________ Do you

I think this has been addressed a few times, but without quite satisfactory results. I have a private subnet behind an NAT proxy server (IPMASQ), and a public subnet on the other side with the NT PDC on the public. (Using both NetBEUI & TCP/IP). The PDC will change later, but currently I'm trying to find out how this all works before I do that. I'm trying to make a client machine on

I know this is off-topic to the list, but someone asked me to make the information that I garnered about Dell Poweredge systems available to the list. So, here it is. Basically, after a search on dejanews, I came across this article: http://x5.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=430135686&CONTEXT=917266543.1696071777&hitnum=19 In it, someone states that there are drivers for the PERC RAID

Eric, I am busy trying to grasp the browse list concept. We have subnets and dial-in accounts. From what I have read you may have to get your Linux box act as aWINS server and have to dial-up user use the wins server to resolve names on the brows list. The browse list is updated every 12-15 minutes ao your dial-up account might not show upat first. This has caused me some trouble at first as I

Hi everybody, I have set up a Linuxbox with Samba and security=server in smb.conf. So far this works, the users are authenticated on the NT-Server as they shuold but then they´re mapped to guest user. When I create the User on my linux box with the same username as on the NT-Server it works OK, no matter what password this user has on the linux box. The real problem is, that I don´t like the Idea

Nicholas: Regarding your problem: "The SGI server is only serving files, no home directories, no printers (we have separate NT servers for each of those functions), and it is using "SERVER" level security. Encryption is on. Guest logins are disabled ... I'm confused greatly by this - one day, a user's login will work, another day, it'll suddenly stop working. "
