Hi, I'd like to ask you what do you limit Desktops syncing in case users put large files on them, e.g. films. Downloading / uploading such large files can generate lots of unnecessary traffic. Is there any kind of filtering possible ? Other solutions ?

..., I'd like to convert a number of userpassword ("posixAccount", crypt-ed) and create a ldif to update my Ldap server database. I've seen smbtools scripts in Samba sources but it seems there no tool to do that in there. What should I use to accomplish this ? Cheers, -- Michal Kurowski <mkur@poczta.gazeta.pl>

Hi Folks: A couple weeks ago, the list helped me develop the way to find the UID of users on my AD system. At the time I did not think that it would be necessary to know the GID of the AD Groups, but I am hitting some snags where I need to change the group ownership of folders etc. I suspect that the necessary command is a variant of the getent command, but man getent has not yielded where I

This basic settings work OK but I'm just turning samba on for larger scale and I want to be sure people group membership will be mapped right.

Hi- Is there any way to make it so that Samba3 with an LDAP backend doesn't need to create local linux accounts to work?

Just for sake of curiosity: Is that possible ? I'd like to support XP Pro *only* and to ban any other Windows OS (no 2000 server or 2003 server machines in here).

...cript %m my_script: #!/bin/sh echo "Please log to 'some machine' to change your password" | \ smbclient -M $* The script works OK but not when ii is actually needed.

hi all, got a small prblem here Running Samba 2.2.8 with a couple of dell laptops that are used either standalone or connected to a network. Both users are storing lots of pictures on their C drive which are visible through My Documents/My Pictures. The problem is that when they are connected to the network, all these files are stored as part of their profile on the server. When it gets to

Hello there I'm also trying to get Sun Directory Server 5.1 (from Solaris9) to work with Samba 3. I've loaded the DS5 schema file (from Samba 3.0.10) into Sun DS5, however when Windows attempts to authenticate against Samba, Samba seems to be sending an invalid request off to the Sun LDAP server: [27/Jan/2005:12:22:39 +1100] - Entry

Hi, I've been trying to find something on this in the docs but have failed so far - perhaps I'm just looking in the wrong place and if so please feel free to reply with a link. My issue is that files create on a samba share in windows are fine. The file is created and is accessible by everyone straight away. But, if I have a unix script create a file on the samba share at the server end

Hi everyone, I'm using Linux kernel 2.4.29 and samba 3.0.10 with Slackware 10.1 distro and I'm having trouble getting the mount.smb to respect my uid and gid options. Whichever uid and gid I specify I get something strange like uid 147926 and gid 101. I heard someplace that this is a bug in the smbfs kernel module but in that case it has appeard after the kernel 2.4.22 since I started

Hello all, I have the following problem: I wish to access the NFS shares through Windows. I want guideline on the following issues : 1.One of the solution to above problem involves sharing the same share(directory) using Samba server and NFS server.But won't this give rise to conflicts with respect to access permission bits of that particular directory being shared.

I have SAMBA 2.0.7 running on about 20 Solaris 9 servers around the US. One location is experiencing interruptions for Windows XP clients who map to the SAMBA server. There are no known changes to Solaris or SAMBA to explain the change. The problem is very random. I have seen postings that discuss how XP uses ports 139 and 445. Is there a way to block port 445 in SAMBA 2.0.7? The

Replacing an old Samba 2.2.2 server with a newer Samba version, and would like to set the SID to the same as the old server. However, 2.2.2 doesn't have the 'net' utilities or anything else that I can find to display the SID. Anyone have any hints? Thanks, Jonathan Wilson

Hi all, In trying to upgrade Samba here, I have built various versions from 3.0.11 to 3.0.14a using various versions of gcc and the Sun compiler (this is on Solaris SPARC) and had the following problem in all cases. Running the built samba as a logon server, I find that WinXP clients work fine but Win9X clients have some difficulties. The problem is that the Win9X logon script can't
