...o often, CPU1, core 2 takes over (at 100%) for a short period and then core 1 goes back to 100%. Is this normal? When the CPU load hits 100% the mouse and keyboard become unresponsive and the whole plot turns clunky. I've also had to turn apic off with linux apic=off in Lilo. Cheers all, Jools

...Pack No GUI running at all Shorewall v2.0.8 Squid v2.5.STABLE6 DansGuardian 2.7.7-8 CPU load is shown as 0 -> 5% when browsing and disk activity is minimal even when proxying. 50MB RAM in use with no activity in the swap file at all so I can''t see the load being that high. Cheers, Jools

...th static data shares mounted on a different server depending on the subnet you're on. Any tips on stacking login scripts? Can samba do this. Any hints and tips appreciated. I have limited time to do this and set up three web servers with limited time for testing but that's life. Cheers, Jools

...r however, it shows only the SID. I checked that the user and group idmaps in Samba's Winbind setting were matching ranges and even deleted the contents of /var/lib/samba before rejoining the member server to the domain but it still doesn't resolve. Any clues on which ways to go? Cheers, Jools

...l/30_exim4-config_check_rcpt there is a line near the bottom which reads accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts I changed this to accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts : net-lsearch;/usr/local/var/state/exact/rela y I then just set exact to and start/stop in /etc/init.d/exim4 thats all!

...ll to add the smb accounts. The -s switch should allow the Samba password to pulled from stdin instead of a prompt but the scipt just exits at the point of attempting the creation of the first Samba account . Is there any difference between Samba 2 and Samba 3 that would explain this? Thanks, Jools

...og in as root it lets me in and I can see root's home directory and access the shares. I have the ldif file backed up so I can restore myself back to the initial state whenever I like. Any suggetions would be gratefully received regarding how I can get around this one. Thanks in advance, Jools

...ntents of the tdbsam database into an smbpasswd backup file and am running john-the-ripper across it. It's succeeding in cracking the passwords but they only come out at max 8 characters and in capitals. Has anyone got any experience with JTR and smbpasswd? All advice gratefully received, Jools

Hi Guys Thanks a lot this has helped me greatly. The basics are now working i just have to migrate the rest of the user accounts and all will be well. :) Regards Andrew On 8/26/07, Julian Pilfold-Bagwell <jools@oss4all.plus.com> wrote: > Volker Lendecke wrote: > > On Sun, Aug 26, 2007 at 03:12:30PM +0200, Andrew Jeremy Gargan wrote: > > > > > >> write list = @agroup, auser, another user > >> > > > > Fedora bug.

...rect sid for the domain, but doing domain admin like things, e.g. gpedit, changing network settings etc., on an XP client leads to warnings that toni is not an administrator. Is there something I've missed? Setup is Centos 5.1, Samba 3.0.25 and smbusers maps root to administrators. Thanks, Jools

...d <domain> returns the sid for the Domain. I need to recover the original domain SID but setlocalsid changes the SID for the machine. As it is, people can log onto the domain but I can't set up any new accounts or change user details with smbldap-tools. Any help appreciated, Cheers, Jools

...h horribly when you try to start it. 7) Restart your ldap server . You should now find that the XP client says welcome to the "whatever" domain when you click OK. As I say, it worked for me after I'd spent hours searching for a solution without finding one. Good Luck!! Cheers, Jools

...n of colour depth. X is set to run at 1024x768 which is fine as far as the app goes and the colour depth is set to 24 bit. When the app runs, it complains that it requires 16 bit colour, or greater and then shuts down. Is this a problem anyone else has run into possibly with a solution? Cheers, jools

...o difference. The user on the Linux box is legit and in the write group. I've also done smbpasswd. No other users can access the share either from Linux or Windows. I'm at home now and don't have access to the server but tell me what files you need and I'll post them.

...herefore, is Vampire going to work in a situation where POSIX accounts can't be created as part of the migration process and if not, can I migrate the client accounts and SIDS from the old PDC to the new one in order to save having to log all of the clients onto the new PDC again. Cheers, Jools

...t access denied. I can run chgrp 513 on the folder and I get access for Domain Users but the group ownership appears as 513. If i run net groupmap list, I get an entry that says: Domain Users -> S-1-xxxxxxxxxxxxx -> users I'm obviously missing something obvious. Any clues? Cheers, jools

...but not well and Samba won't run on it (nmbd hangs). I plan to run a forensic to find out what happened but I need to get the whole plot up again first. Irony is that a BDC and LDAP slave were next on the "things to do list" but at least I have the files backed up ;) Cheers all, Jools

...xes after it's been OK'd. The modified permissions do appear in the advanced tab though. Is there a reason for the difference in Domain names? Does it matter if the SIDs are the same? Have I missed out an important setlocalsid command? Help please, I'm getting stressed ;) Cheers, Jools

...from loginscript.bat to login.%m and will deleting the existing primary group of a machine affect the info stored in tdbsam. Also, any ideas why add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /dev/null -g \ machines %u is not setting the machines group to machines? Thanks Jools -- J.

...prefixed with the domain name as well. I've also tried wbinfo -g and -u which both work and -t works fine. The machine has also been successfully been attached to the domain and net rpc getsid BGS returns the correct sid. If anyone can shine some light on this I'd be grateful :) Cheers, Jools smb.conf is as below: [global] workgroup = BGS server string = PYKOTA security = domain encrypt passwords = true admin users = @admins ew bm jpb password server = 172.20.0.101 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m log level = 3...
