Having read a few posts recently I thought I would do some testing. Given XP's use of 445 and that I have a couple of networks where they only have XP clients, I thought I would try setting smb ports to 445 only rather than that suggested of just specifying 139. This has worked well for XP clients with SP2. However SP1, and presumably pre-SP1 clients, lose all sight of the NBT network.

Hi I've searched the archives but did not spot this particular issue there. Config. RH8, Samba 3.0.2a. Auth via smbpasswd. I have a small office network where one of the accounts has had there password expire and resetting the password just went round in loops. I've tried removing the password synching from smb.conf and removing the user from smbpasswd and re-creating their account

I have a mixed network with both XP and ME clients. I'm going round in circles trying to find out why half the machines, that is half the XP and half the ME, don't show up in the browse lists. I have searched through the archives and, while I can see similar problems, I did not find a solution to this one. Can someone give me some pointers to a solution please? Thanks Alan

I've just found out today that my system won't let users (2000 and XP clients) change their passwords. >From their consoles they get permission denied messages. Looking at the logs its clearly a Samba/PAM interaction issue but all looks OK in the pam.d directory. I've spent a few hours searching online but can't find anything that match's this scenario. Extract from users

I've just been trying to get my Samba 3.0.0-2 build to work with CUPS. The rpm I downloaded from the Samba site was not compiled with CUPS library support. Which is why I am assuming that having added printing = cups in my conf file things are not working. If I use the source rpm can I force the build to include CUPS library support ? Or do I have to build from scratch? thanks Alan

Hello all: I know I had posted this question a while ago, but I have just not been able to get it to work. I am trying to sync samba passwords with unix passwords and it is just not working. I have attached the results of "testparm -sv /etc/samba/smb.conf > smbconfig.txt" with this email. I have also attached the "net groupmap list" results. If anyone can provide any

I have a problem logging into 3.0.6 with an XP SP2 machine. I'm not sure where this problem has arisen from as I have been testing XP SP2 on a few machines and during this process I've done a clean install of 3.0.6. I started testing a laptop and found that while logged in locally I could access domain files as expected. When I tried to log into the domain I was presented with
