So far, so good with 1.9.18p1 on HPUX 10.20 (kudos to the Samba team!). However, I've got a question.... I'd like to be able to restrict access to some of our services, and can certainly do so with the "hosts allow = " entry in smb.conf - it does exactly what I want. But... I plan on bringing Samba up on a few campus hosts, some of which have more extensive listings of PCs I

Hello there, I have a samba PDC 3.0.0 running ok, but I had turned on the option "Time Server" in smb.conf, to synchronize the workstations time with server. But the workstations synchronize 1 hour less than it is. I think that the workstations isn?t considering the daylight saving time. I?m using the command: net time \\server /set /yes Thank?s, []?s Tercio

Hi, I'd like to hear off-list from anyone who is currently successfully using folder redirection with an NT4 domain controller. If you are doing this, please would help me to understand your secret. There are two ways I know of that should work, however I have received feedback from separate sources that claim problems with both of these methods. I would like to include in the new book

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 ? Cheers, -- Michal Kurowski perl -e '$_=q#: 13_2: 12/o{>: 8_4) (_4: 6/2^-2; 3;-2^\2: 5/7\_/\7: 12m m::#;

Need your help! I'm very confised and tired, tried a lot of variants but still at the start, even lost all understanding how the permissions and masks works. Please write me a config for the following case: There is a directory: '/home/shared/door', owned by 'michael:office' shared via samba as '[door]' How can I configure the FS and samba to let 'michael'

One of my users complained that his Win2kSP2 complains that his password Is going to expire in 8 days. A while ago we changed from Win2k domain to a Samba 2.2.3a controlled domain. How do I disable the password expiration? I read the man pages and searched Google but couldn't find any hints about the issue. It almos seems like this expiration thing should not be happening at all...?

Hi, I have recently upgraded to 3.0.11 and the new user privileges worked fine. Since I applied the user privileges and trust patch, I am now unable to grant privileges to users or groups. The error I am getting is Failed to grant privileges for longhill\Domain Admins (NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_PRIVILEGE) I have tried all 5 privileges and I get the same error. I suspect it has something to do with the patch, but I'm unsure as to what. Cheers Kristyan Osborne Longhil High School 01273 391672

Howdy All, I need to change the machine names on about 10 machines ( winxp ) on a samba 3.05/redhat9 network ( NO LDAP ) Am I correct in the order I have listed below to accomplish this 1. remove the machines from the domain ( change to a workgroup ) 2. remove the machines from the smbpasswd file ( I can use webmin for this ) 3. stop samba 4. remove the machines from /etc/passwd 5. add new

Hi Folks, Just installed Samba 2.2.10 on my FreeBSD 4.9 computer. I can see the FreeBSD box on all of my Win 9x boxes, but when I double click on its icon, I get a rude box message that says something like: ==================================================== You must supply a password to make this connection Resource: \\SAMMY\IPC$ ====================================================

First of all I am new to Samba. I successfully deployed Samba 3.0.6 as a PDC w/roaming profiles. All the workstations have a desktop.ini file that shows up on the desktop after joining the domain. The contents of the ini differ from workstation to workstation. >From my understanding this file is a supposed to be a hidden file, but it is not. Any ideas? I apologize if I have not included

...s can not. This would indicate that there is a problem with samba, either with ACLs accessing group information or passing group/user information from the system to a smbd process owned by a user other than root.
