...driver to the Samba print server using Windows 2000 or XP. The Add Printer Driver Wizard runs ok until I click on the Finish button, then it requires a Windows 2000 Advanced Server CD-ROM to be installed, to get a driver out of the printers\NT4\I386 directory. Is there any way around this? Jay Ts jayts@iname.com

List, I've got my Samba box (RedHat 7.2) running NTP client to sync with PARC. I want my windaz clients to be able to read time from it automagically. Is there a way to do that?

I upgraded a fileserver I admin to samba 2.2.5 from 2.0.7 almost a week ago and whlst I was on site today something very strange happened. I found that I couldn't browse anything on network neighbourhood from any of the machines and looking at the log files it appears that a windows98 machine managed to elect itself local master. I have got the usual: local master = yes domain master

In a samba share with domain authentication on an ext2 filesystem, is there any sensible way to allow creation of folders, files and so on inside it other than making the share directory world-writeable on the Unix system? If not, are there other options for achieving this? I know I've heard about a Linux filesystem which has NT-style ACLs, but I've also heard that it's

Hi, I am running samba 2.2.7 as a PDC with a couple of Win2k workstations participating in the domain. Once in a while of the workstations, I can't access shares on the other, getting a message "no logon servers available". Once I restart smbd and nmbd via /etc/init.d/smb stop start, the problem goes away immediately. I tried to search in samba logs, but there were no error

I have simple needs, as I am my only user. I am in transition between Linux and Windows. I need to get Samba running. I DO NOT need any security between machines (except to the internet.) I have certain hardware requirements that forces me to keep Windows a little longer, some day soon I will be able to afford to make the last changes. In the mean time I need to move and store my "My

Hi, This has probably been covered before but after 4 hours of searching I'm nearly at the point of throwing my XP machine out of the window!! I have set up Samba (v 2.2.5) on my Red Hat 7.1 box. From the Red Hat box I can see all the other computers on the network (other Linux machines, Win2k, Windows ME and my Windows XP box), and get access to the shared drives on them. The linux box can

Hello Guys, I am having some problems with configuring SAMBA with regards to performance. We are running SAMBA 2.2.3a on Dual PIII 1Ghz machines with 512MB of RAM. The server is running on a default server installation of Red Hat 7.2. We have a 500Gb RAID 5 drive using the Promise SX6000 Raid controller. Currently we are only getting a throughput of ~5MB/S for writes and ~13MB/S for reads.

Hello, I am running Red Hat 7.3 Samba 2.26 and winbind. I have been able to join the domain and test all of the following with these commands. All works great. winbind -u winbind -g getent passwd getent group But when I set up a share to test with one domain user account it just presents me with a password dialog box and does not accept anything. It should not prompt me but if it does

Before you read this, I want to state (for reasons listed below) that I don't expect an answer (advice is welcomed, but please read this email carefully before answering). I'm sharing this with the community with the hope that better software results from our sad experience...

I'm probably the umpteenth million person to ask questions about this... I'm trying to set up a linux box that would authenticate users against win2003. Here's what I need help on, in a somewhat unorganized fashion.... 1) There will be about 4000 accounts, only about 20 of them will need shells. Will I have to create entries in /etc/passwd for all of these users? Is there a

After setting up winbindd, krb5 and pam, I can log into my linux server and be authenticated against the AD. When I am logged into the linux server should I have any tickets shown with klist? I can manually runkpass after login but I would like this to be automated, wasn't sure if I should be using the pam_krb5 module to take care of creating the ticket at login. How do I handle the
