Hi, I am trying to follow the instructions here: https://xapian.org/docs/bindings/php/ It doesn't seem to say how to actually download the files. Can anybody clear that up for me? Thanks. -- John .G. Heim jheim at math.wisc.edu

I have a PDC running debian wheezy with samba 3.5.11 . If I run 'net rpc testjoin' on my PDC, it does this: # net rpc testjoin get_schannel_session_key: could not fetch trust account password for domain 'UW-MATH' net_rpc_join_ok: failed to get schannel session key from server HUBBLE for domain UW-MATH. Error was NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO Join to domain 'UW-MATH'

I'm setting up a debian squeeze file server with NFS mounted home directories and authentication via ldap. Now I want to give Windows users access to those same home directories. I thought I'd try samba4. I figure I have nothing to lose since this is a virtual machine and if I don't like the results, I can just restore from a snapshot. Its not a production machine yet. I'd

I'm setting up a new linux fileserver and I was wondering if samba likes one filesystem more than another. I have to format a 1.8Tb partition sometime today and I'll probably do ext3 unless samba prefers something else. We have a lot more linux users than Windows users but the Windows users have more problems with slow access.

I'm looking for advice on how to handle this problem... I've inherited a samba domain with an ldap backend. It uses custom scripts to add users and to join a machine to the domain. I don't mind the custom add user script but I'd like to do away with the custom script to join a machine to the domain. The custom script breaks all the time and our Windows systems admin is pretty

I am confused... Using an ldap server as a backend for samba4 is not recommended? We are primarily a linux shop. We have an ldap database we use for authentication. I can't use that anymore if I switch to samba4?

I believe that once you have roaming profiles configured, all you need to do to configure folder redirection is set some registry keys. I'd like to turn that job over to our Windows sys admin. Can someone provide me with their favorite documentation for configuring folder redirection? Keep in mind I am passing this link along to a Windows sys admin. Our backend is samba 3.6.3 if it

We (the Math department at the U of Wisconsin) recently switched over from another server to dovecot One thing that a lot of people here do is set up an on-line form that sends them email. They use formmail for this. I have them edit their procmail config so that all the messages go into a particular mail folder.... So far so good. With our old system, all messages in a folder were kept in a

How much of a resource hog is a PDC? My understanding is that authentication is done vs a BDC if available. I configured my new file server as the domain PDC because I figured it would already have to run samba. I have two other machines configured as BDCs to serve as logon servers. I'm looking for opinions on whether I'm asking for performance problems by making my file server the
