...is in the printer admin group in smb.conf. I can provide snippets of the config files if needed. Is there some docs I can read about my specific issue, or generally about printing with samba 2.2.8 and cups? Thanks a lot. -- Best regards, Fabio mailto:liste@kurgan.org

...bridged. I assume that apart from speed (512K on WAN connections) broadcasts are the only differences between LAN and WAN set-ups. Is there something I missed with broadcasts? I assume that since I use WINS, I don't need broadcasts to make Samba work. Am I wrong? -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

...still online. I'd like to know if there is something else that I could use, if there is some "hook" in Samba that I can use to run scripts at logon and logoff, that can pass me username, groups (not really necessary) and IP address of the workstation. Thanks. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

...e not allowed to open files from directory A. Is there some solution to this issue? Maybe I need to set "inherit acls = yes"? I basically want ACLs to be ALWAYS the default ones, as set on the topmost directory, nothing more and nothing less. Thanks for your help. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

...her without patching the kernel? If so, what patch do I need exactly? Is there something wrong with my kernel version, that has a broken NAT support? (this could explain why I get some packets that do not get NATed at all) Thanks a lot for the time you took reading this. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

...pear at the next refresh (the next refresh of what?), it never disappears. Now, is it because of this that I get this error? Maybe the PDC thinks that he has to synchronize something to a BDC that has been removed from the domain? I have googled but I have found no answers... -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

Hi, Can I know when a Samba user (one that is connecting to the Samba server via a Windows Client) creates a file in the shared folder or modifies a file in the shared folder, what would the acls of the file be? (I meant the gid and uid of the file) Mine worked as if it is always created as a root user. I thought the file should have the uid and gid or the person who created the file

Hi All, I've been trying to tackle this for some time and so far did not find a way to do this. The problem is simple - as I don't enable printing through Samba I'd like to disable it in such fashion that user would not even see the empty Printers share when he lists the available shares. How can I achieve that? Best Regards, Marek C.

I am trying to setup a Netbois alias that uses it's own smb.conf file. I have made the following changes to the original smb.conf file: netbois alias = TPUB02 include = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.%L For some reason the smb.conf file in the include statement does not work. In touble shooting this issue I was able to hardcode the smb.conf file name in the include statement and that does

Hello Listmembers! This is the first time i'm posting to this list. I'm not a native speaker, so excuse my mistakes. We're using Redhat with Kernel 2.4.29, 12 GB of memory, Dual Itanium Processors Scasi Raid controller with filesystem ext3 Samba V 3.0.14a We encounter following problem. If somebody on the network writes big files from windows clients to a samba shared

...3.x. I suppose I will need to run convmv on the directories that are shared by samba to translate the file names to UTF-8, but the question is: what charset is in use now? From the testparm output I could not guess it, so i don't know how to convert my files. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

Hi, I upgraded a mid-sized samba install (+-150 pc's) from Samba 2.0.7 to 3.0.14a last night. It is acting as a PDC and the upgrade went smooth except for one thing. Under 2.0.7, it seems like the "include =" is recursive.. ie: in included files, you can include files. This behavior seems to have changed in 3.0.14a. Can someone confirm this? My setup: smb.conf include =

...led: DOS code 0x0000001f, got no key-data" but it still seems to work. This has worked for me, and after doing it I was able to use the printers normally and also modify their settings using a Windows client. Hope this helps, but I suppose we need a better solution... -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

Hi all, I have a Samba 3.0.13 with ACL support running under SuSE and acting as a PDC for the hole organization. Among some shares, there's one that has about ten subdirectories. Everybody can access this share and restrictions are applied over those subdirs. The problem is that, for example, when I create a file (or modify it with Word or Exel) in the Finances subdirectory, the file has my

I have googled a lot, but I have found no examples of the correct use of the tdbbackup program. I am looking for some advice on how to use tdbbackup. I mean, I know I can simply run "tdbbackup *.tdb", but I was looking for in-depth information on when and how to use it, about best practices on using it, or what NOT to do. The Samba documentations says I should run it in my start/stop

...he users SID numbers? Doesn't this make an horrible mess on the workstations that already know the domain users by the old SIDs? Any help (even in suggesting to read more of TFM, and possily a link to the part of the manual that I have to read) is really appreciated. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

..."500", now that my workstations already know the user "root" by its old SID. I suppose that generally is definitely NOT a good idea to change a user's SID, because this would make his files on his workstations owned by someone else. Am I right? -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

...od at C programming, I can't fix them myself, so I'm just waiting for someone to fix it. You should also check on bugzilla.samba.org by searching the term "recycle". There are some patches that where never (AFAIK) integrated into mainstream sources. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi

I have Samba PDC and use tdbsam backend. I use the version 3.0.11, but recently I have exchanged it for the version 3.0.23c. Now I have a number of problem. Here is one of then. I wish to move one user "gad" from Domain Users (RID 513) to Domain Guests (RID 514). Now Primary group of user "gad" is "Domain Users": pdbedit -Lv gad -d0 Unix username: gad NT

Hello everyone. I'm using SAMBA version 3.0.9-2.3-SUSE as a PDC and internal mail server (few users in user list) for quite some time and so far so good for what i wanted (Domain logins, shares, users files and backups). My problem is when i need to install software or hardware on a machine (client of the domain - Windows XP Pro). As the users don't have administrator priviledges on their
