Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am looking for a good and new book for Samba which includes descriptions for the new features (maybe using Samba and Win2K), too.

I have setup Samba default from RedHat 7.2. ver 2.2.1a as a PDC for my windows =network. I all works great except when i try to use MS Word, i get this error "word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error" does anyone know how to remedy this problem. permissio for the my profile is okay, i am able to write when i log out, only when i try to use MS word, this error pops

Hey, Would anyone be able to point me to info on ACL_REVISION3 specifications? My lowly MSDN and SDK seem to only know about ACL_REVISION2. A file on Win 2000 share has revision 2, same file copied to samba share has revision 3. Context: I am looking at the security descriptor for files under Windows 2000.

Is there a way to get information on a print job from the command line? For example: > smb_print_query smbprn.00002.a12345 jobid = pr1000-555 filename = Notepad - sample.txt owner = dan_thibadeau machine = mylaptop size = 1234 bytes or something like that? Thanks, Dan Thibadeau

Dear all, as you already know, it is possible to send short winpopup messages to Win boxes using the command smbclient -M host. If a Win user wants to reply, it should be possible to use the Windows' WinPopUp GUI to reply, but the message gets lost somewhere. For example: smbclient -M winbox Added interface ip=192.1.1.125 bcast=192.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Connected. Type your message,

I set up winbind on one box successfully. Now a friend told me that it might be better to use ActiveDirectoriy (the PDC and all other servers are win2000). What is the difference in both approaches? which is 'better'? I feel that ldap is the more general and cleaner solution. Is that true? My windows-admins will get rid of wins soon. does winbind rely on wins? can libnss-ldap also create

Recently, a problem developed in storing IE5's Temporary Internet Files on our samba exported network scratch space. In tracking it down, I found that the Win2k client attempts to set the ACL of the file "Content.IE5/index.dat". However, the this call ends up setting the mode of index.dat to 0407 (-r-----rwx), thus making the file unmodifiable to the user who created it. (This in

I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps

I know in some ways the answer is RTFM, but I'm not even sure which docs to read or where they are. I've posted about my printing problem before (Win2k SP2 won't print to my Linux server printer), and even though I've had some suggestions, nothing has worked (after a solid week of trying combinations in smb.conf, I'm close to having to drop Linux and go to a complete

I keep getting "Windows cannot copy file \\ssp1\profiles ... to C:\Documents And Settings\..." when trying to log into a Samba PDC using a Windows 2000 SP2 client. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? I am including my smb.conf file, below: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = DC1 netbios name = SSP1 server string = Samba Server encrypt passwords = Yes update

Hello, Small question: if I have to reinstall my Samba serve; using the same winbindd_cache.tdb and winbindd_idmap.tdb will maintain domain id/unix id mappings? In other words, will it work? :) cheers Gustavo

Hi there, ive got a nasty little problem with my Samba 2.2.1, running on a lfs system with kernel 2.2.18 and glibc 2.2.2 . At boottime i first load smbd with option -D and after that nmbd -D. But immediatly after that nmbd crashes without saying a word. Then i found something very interesting in the logs, here an excerpt of log.nmbd : --------------- snip --------------- [2001/10/10 14:04:07,

Hello Samba help, When I try to use 'restrict acl with mask = true', I get: [2001/10/16 09:19:44, 0] param/loadparm.c:map_parameter(1986) Unknown parameter encountered: "restrict acl with mask" This is with the latest Samba (2.2.2) on Red Hat Linux 7.1.

Hi, I used to look forward to Samba's warning free compilations, but this is to be no more. I've got samba 2.2.2 installed and running with --without-winbind, but it seems that this is a good thing to have. Sooo... Has anyone successfully compiled winbind on Solaris 8 using cc? I'm using cc (cc: Sun WorkShop 6 update 1 C 5.2 2000/09/11) and am running into the same compile
