I found this from http://charon.minilab.bdeb.qc.ca/anonym/nt/2000/ads/TTGW2KGP_Vol1through4.pdf I would like to figure out how to do this gpedit.msc+AD+gpc+gpt magic for win2k/xp with linux+samba(2.2/3.0/tng)+openldap and is it possible at all? Thanks. Although GPOs provide significantly more policy features than NT 4.0 System Policy provides, GPOs are stored and processed differently than NT 4.0 System Policy is. In NT 4.0, the System Po...

Hi, We are setting up a samba PDC with rhcl 5.I made some restrictions in XP box using GPEDIT like restricting the access to control panel,desktop properties, registry and etc. ,then i copied the DEFAULT USER folder frm that XP box to netlogon share of samba server.(thought it would act as baseprofile for all users and this profile policy will be copied to all new users).But what ever the...

Hello everyone, Not really a Samba problem, but I hope someone can help me : I am doing some tests for integrating XP clients on Samba 3.02 with LDAP backend. I have tried this on a test machine on which I have applied local policies withthe gpedit.msc console (ie : Delete the roaming profiles or hide the logon scripts...) and this work perfectly. Now I'd like to do the same on other machines and I want to export the local policies I applied on the first one but it does'nt work : I copied the Registry.pol files from one computer t...

James, I configured the account lockout policies by RSAT, GPEDIT.MSC. By GPEDIT.MSC I set the value = 10 attempts. Through the samba-tool, I used this command: # samba-tool domain passwordsettings set --account-lockout-threshold=11 INFO: Current debug levels: ... pm_process() returned Yes Module 'tombstone_reanimate' is disabled. Skip registrat...

Hey all, according to the whitepaper http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736591%28v=ws.10%29.aspx I would like to a windows shortcut on the desktop that allows me to open and run the "Group Policy Editor" *for my samba4/AD domain*. The shortcut command should be: "gpedit.msc /gpobject:"LDAP://CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=mydom, DC=example,DC=com" I certainly need the correct ID og the object, but how do I find it out? I need to replace the string {31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9} shown on that example with the correct on...

...amba server is not virtual. The problem is my wife's Win7 laptop which is running some sort of home edition of Win7. I did everything I could in control panel to enable file sharing but I still can't see the Samba share. I can ping the computer running Samba? I tried to launch "gpedit.msc" but this program was not there. Do you think it would work if I upgraded Samba to the latest version 4.1? Should I consider upgrading to Win7 professional? Thank you, Joe Hesse

Hi. my last post was about upscale configuration for my WinXP clients, because I believed I had it working, but ... Next day I booted the client and .... it wouldnt let me log onto the domain again. :-( I am using Samba 2.2.8a with Ldap backend which works great in workgroup mode. Joining the domain is very easy and works well, but then after rebooting I get: "Es kann keine

...sen't works too ), until that i work with centos 4 and debian etch's samba, I always set the same configuration and works fine, but with debian lenny ( 3.2.5 ) i getting problems with privileges, and i set one user ( "administrator" ) with all privileges this user can't open gpedit.msc ou change configs on regedit. Is that normal?? or there are something wrong here? Thanks for all help!!! JC

How do you disable roaming profiles in Windows 2000? I know in Windows XP you use gpedit.msc but I don't see where in windows 2000 to disable roaming profiles. Any suggestions? Thanks, Adam

...fine, but now we would like to use user policies. As I learned that can be done by the ntuser.pol file in the 'profiles' user sub directory on the PDC. So her is what i already tried: 1.) Set up a test Window$ 2000 Client and get it into the Domain 2.) Log in as Administrator 3.) Start gpedit.msc (and change something) 4.) Test if that change works 5.) Log out 6.) Make the ntuser.dat to a ntuser.man 7.) Log in as Administrator 8.) restore the original gpedit.msc parameter 9.) log out and in again So i found out that this does not work, as the changes via gpedit.msc are only stored loca...

Hi all, All clients are Win 7. How can I transmit rules defined in gpedit for users (for example forbid execution of regedit) to the Default User roaming profile? Is it done with a ntconfig.pol ? If yes, how can I make it ? Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

...llowed the directions in the "Making Happy Users" section of the Samba-3 By Example guide. http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold Folder redirection is working, using the %LOGONSERVER%\profiles\%USERNAME%\ string to replace %USERPROFILE%. But, when I use gpedit.mmc to exclude the redirected folders from the roaming profile, as instructed here http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#sbehap-locgrppol all files in the redirected folders are deleted when the user logs out. In other words, if a user logs in, downloads the firefox install...

...http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/PolicyMgmt.html There is references to apply policies in NT/2000 Server and winxp clients, but it's not clear to me that will run fine or not using samba 3.2.3+winxp machines. If exist a way, How ? I was create a local policies using gpedit.msc and I would like to apply to entire network.

...O I am unable to find *Account Policies* and *Local Policies *under *"Computer Configuration / Policies / Windows Settings / Security Settings*". This is also the case when using RSAT from a Windows 10 Pro machine. These Policies do exist on the Windows 11 Pro machine itself when I open *gpedit.msc*. Not sure if this is relevant, but I did download and install the the 22H2 ADMX Templates for Windows 11 to the Samba AD. They exists in the SYSVOL directory. An example of a policy I'd like to set in the GPO is *"Interactive logon: Message text for users attempting to log on"*...

...windows xp users to login locally to their machine, but still have them automaticly check the netlogon share or something like that to apply network mappings and policies per group or user. I have this working when the user logs onto the domain. He gets a profile (which i keep local through gpedit.msc). I also know of a way to apply all those things locally to every machine, but obviously i want to have this another way. Domain login could be ok if it's a new user, but i'm talking about +- 50 workstations with local profiles already in use. And it would be the best to manage...

Hi all, I'm trying to configure samba as PDC, I have a problem when windows client log in this is the error: Windows cannot load the profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off I have samba-3.0.11 and smbldap-tools-0.8.8. I tryed also samba-3.0.14 and smbldap-tools-0-9.1, I have the same problem on Gentoo and on

...rects into users' home on the Samba server for many folders (e.g. 'My Documents', 'Recent Docs' etc.) - Use of poledit.exe and various templates to create NTConfig.POL in Samba's NETLOGON share, thus supporting various System Policies (1). - Using gpedit.msc on the reference PC to 'deploy' various initial policy settings (2) This is what I *don't* have figured out. I basically need to find out whether any of this is possible and, if so, whether it is possible using my existing toolset: - Updating and managing settings that...
