Hi, I'm new to Samba. It came with my Linux distribution. I followed directions in my red hat linux book and modified smb.conf. It's partially working.

I have sucessfully got a windows 2K machine to join the domain but I can not get it to run a logon script, map the drive letter to the home directory or create a roaming profile. All my smb.conf setting look correct as per the samples and How To's so I'm stuck! smb.conf is as follows: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = LINUX netbios name = LINUX1 server string = Samba Server

Please make windows go away. I am enjoying(even the frustrations)learning linux for the first time. So many packages and features, it's crazy. I like crazy but have a request for you guys.

I am looking at installing Samba for use on a production server. I already have it installed on two systems (version 2.0.6), but do not have installed to the point of getting the best performance out of it with what is available. So my question is, what should I (or should I not) install? What version of Samba that is out is the best? I am aware of Samba 2.0.7 is at least decent, is it the latest

OK. So here's my case: I've been trying to get Samba configured to run as a domain controller for about a month now. The job is to add a domain controller to a workgroup of Windows XP Pro machines. It has been a long uphill struggle with lots of hope but little progress. Just when I was about to give up on Samba, someone suggested that I try in with a few other versions of Windows. 95,

I am trying to get roaming profiles working for my Win2K workstation and run a group login script at logon.

Good evening all, I'm running samba 2.2.2a on RedHat 7.2 as a PDC and until today all was well. One of my users upgraded their workstation to Windows Xp pro and although they received a message "Welcome to the domain" when they try to log on they receive the message that the domain comptroller cannot be located to validate their account. The workstation show up in the browse list.
