Dear Sir I been reading through your (?) samba-doc folder on Debian 2.2. The document DOMAIN-CONTROL.txt is dated 1996 and updated 1998. It mentions that SAMBA cannot be a PDC. This is not the case anymore isn't it? Thank you Warwick Chapman (Glenwood 1999) http://www.boatrace.co.za Assistant IT Manager Glenwood High School, Durban, South Africa 031 2055241 083 7797094

Concur ... I reckon that you need a bunch of how tos, that you can sent these rude people. I think that you are a victim of your own success. Samba has hit the mainstream, and now you are paying the price :-) Still ........ I prefer these messages to those filled with hypertext ... or worse.... 2 Meg of mime formatted drivel :-) Has anybody thanked you recently for providing so much help on

Hello! I have a query regarding the use of "encrypt passwords = yes" and is wondering if anyone can help me with it. If I recall correctly, when using "encrypt passwords = no" , Samba will lookup the username/password via the UNIX /etc/passwd file or equivalent. And as the password can have mixed-case passwords, the "password level = x" parameter is used to

Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).

The "printer drivers download" feature of SAMBA-2.2 is great. Thanks to the SAMBA team. I'm using SAMBA-2.2.0 and everything works fine except one command: $ ./rpcclient sdprint -U root -c 'enumprinters' Enter Password: rpc_api_pipe: cmd 26 on pipe 703e failed to return data. result was NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL $ I can't say that rpcclient log file is useful for me but

Dear Andrew Tridgell and Samba Team, You have done a wonderful job in providing an excellent piece of software. I am interested in porting smbclient to Handheld device, mostly as a hobby. Please see my website http://vieka.com/. Because some of the Handheld OSs don't have the ability to access Windows share resource, specifically, the new Pocket PC by Microsoft, I would like to add this

Hello list members, I'm slightly confused as to the status of the samba project(s), and was wondering if someone here could give an authoritative answer to what the situation is. Is it correct that the current latest stable version 2.0.7 is being developed into 2.2 by a continuation of the "original" team? And samba TNG is working on a different approach which will be version

Hi, I am just fiddeling with 2.2.0 final. I am having trouble with the config files I used with 2.2.0alpha3: check_access: no hostnames in host allow/deny list.

Well, as Andrew shouted at me again this weekend it's getting to be about that time.... :-) :-). Yep, we're thinking we should do an official 2.2 Samba release early next week, so if you have anything you can't live with, now would be a good time to tell us.... :-). It's been gestating longer than an elephant, so it's really time to let it out into the world and do its own

I have been running samba 2.2.8a with approx 400 users accessing it for their network drives. What I need to do now is to upgrade it to version 3.0.6. I have been trying to upgrade my development system with limited success this is what I have done. ? stopped samba ? /usr/src/samba-3.0.6/source ? used the same configure options as when I installed 2.2.8a i.e ? ./configure --prefix=/usr

If not what are the reasons not to do so? - -- Mit freundlichen Gruessen Best Regards Robert Schetterer

In the documentation the "oplocks = yes" option is give in an example, as the default for this parameter. However, I needed to turn oplocks off, and so assumed that the command "oplocks = no" would work. It doesn't, instead I found that "oplocks = false" does. There needs to be some boolean fixing done, or at least documentation should reflect this strangeness.

if one uses the "logon drive = " the home directory get mounted on Z: however, when i set "logon drive = H:" the home directory get mounted on H: i red in the PDC Faq, net tested for samba 2.2.X that leaving "logon drive = " would not allow roaming profile, and that it will save the profile in the user computer speeding up the login/logout process.
