Hi, I'm running samba-3.0.5 on OpenBSD 3.5. I'm trying out using samba as a print server for the first time, and it works ok, but I have this problem where everytime I print anything, a additional blank page comes out of the printer at the end of what was just printed. It's an old HP Laserjet 4 connected to the parallel port of the samba server. /etc/printcap lp|HP4|HP Laserjet

Has anybody done such a thing as this? I'm looking to make this transition as smooth as possible. I have the new fileserver up and running, and I'm using rsync to keep the Novell data current on the Samba server. Any words of advice on transferring the users and groups and permissions over to the new server in the least painful way possible? I have some idea that Novell uses LDAP

Hiya I've got FreeBSD and Samba 2.2 running quite nicely on a server I ma using for web page development. This is on a 3 PC network at home using fixed IP addresses 192.168.0.x etc. However, last night I tried to make it into a PDC following the PDC Howto document. all seemed well till I tried to login to it >-: The netbios name is 'micah' the server name was

Hello all now that I have finally got CyrusSASL to authenticate.... next up is installing Samba I'm running FreeBSD 5.2.1 and have the options in the ports tree of 2.2.11 and 3.0.6 In my test server intall I used 2.2.8 with success, and it is still running at home on a P166.... as a PDC but here at work it must work for mostly Win98SE machines, plus a couple of Win2000 and XP laptops.

See my note from yesterday about quota size displays for reference I have just been looking at the source code. (long time since I did C, so forgive me if I stuff something up royally) in source/smbd/ntquotas.c there is code that corrects for block sizes other than 1024, which would work correctly IFF the *bsize is set correctly (should be 512 on my FreeBSD system but i don't know how to

Hiya Yesterday I had to face the XP Home logon script monster and came up with something that appears to work ok. Issue is the XP Home will not do a domain login and therefore not run the logon script, nor map the home drive using 'net use h: /home' My solution is to put a batch file into c:\documents and settings\username that contains net use h: \\server\username

Hiya I'm using Samba as my PDC, and this is fine for desktops since most of them are still Win98. However, the bosses laptop has W2k and used to work fine under the Novell client. ie there was one user on the laptop and those setting were used when logged into Novell and when not connected to the net. Now, with the domain we seem to be stuck with having 2 users, one the local machine

Hi all I have just noticed that Windows (98 and 2000) are not displaying the correct figure for disk space on any of my shares. FreeBSD 5.2.1-R Samba 3.0.7 from ports quotas enabled on the ufs2 filesystems samba compiled '--with-quotas' ok, a user gets a quota set like this edquota -e /home:8672278:8774678:0:0 denis now, those numbers are in 512 byte blocks and should represent
