Hi there, is it, and how - possible to add an Win2K/XP Client to a Samba-Server (PDC) without encrypted passwords ? We have many of Win9x Clients they connect to the samba-server without using the encrypt passwords = yes parameter in smb.conf. So I want to add a Win2K and XP-Client to the net without changing the smb.conf (encrypt passwords = no). -- SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF

...box running samba 2.0.7. A couple of users on Windows XP clients are reporting problems saving files from within MS Word, and Wordpad to the samba share, which of course is a mapped drive. They get an error saying "This is not a valid file name".... These XP boxes do have the reg hacks plainpassword.reg and signorseal.reg installed. The work around is to save a file to a local directory and then copy the file over to the samba drive via windows explorer, but that s*cks! Any ideas? this is driving us bananas.

...mported the recommended NT4..reg to the win98 and NT clients and set a logon.bat in the autostart to connect to the server automatically as recommended, too in the WinNT.txt. The logon.bat is something like this: net use //servername/service. I`m asked for a password. Although encryption is set to PlainPasswords in the clients the password is not right. Always the error 86 occurs. Any hints? Is it possible to turn on encryption and serve win95 and win98 clients at the same time?

Hi, the wiki doesn't explain the file format for passwd-file. I want to do a small set of virtual users using flat files. I have my postfix "vmailbox" generated, and working as expected for delivery. I've configured dovecot, put passwd-file for the auth_passdb, and specified a file name. By "passwd like" what is allowed? Where is it document. How unlike passwd

...smbclient on my machine. But the Win2k Machine isn't accessible. On the Win2k Machine on the other Hand, i see my linux-host but i can't access it, a message, telling "\\blubb is not accessible, the network path was not found" appears. I've allready upped the Registry-Key (PlainPassword). So this couldn't be it. Also the Users and Passwords are the same on the Win2k machine, the linux machine and on samba. I really hope, someone can help me. After searching around for about 1 day, i didn't find a solution for this problem. smb.conf: [global] workgroup = TKS6...

...from Windows2000 with EnablePlainTextPassword enabled in the registry - from WindowsXP with RequireSignOrSeal disabled but it fails with the error message "session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE" for the same account - with the smbclient of samba 2.x - from WinNT with or without PlainPasswords enabled in the registry I checked the ldap requests with ethereal: in all cases it's the same request and the same response, except that requests from the first group uses unicode encoded and the latter ansi encoded passwords. I'm not sure if the login failure is caused by this differe...

Hi, I'm trying to setup a samba server that will serve linux shares out to users accross the network. I'd like authentication to be done locally, and I want it to authenticate against pam using the already existing local linux user accounts. I am not authenticating domain users, or windows users, and I don't want to use smbpasswd. Is there some way to force samba to

...box and nothing else. So , I went ahead and created a "passwd" file with two users. One user being my name (spyros) and plaintext password and the other user "postmaster" with encrypted password ("/etc/dovecot/passwd" shown) : --- spyros at webmail.domain.gr:{PLAIN}plainpassword postmaster at webmail.domain.gr:{SSHA}SSHAPassword --- Now, if I telnet to port 143 with both users, the system comes back with the following : --- [root at webmail dovecot]# telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1...

...). Click on entire network and I get "Microsoft Windows Network" (again, only it). Double click that and I get "GODDESSES". Double click that and I get "Goddesses is not accessible. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available." Added the NT4-PlainPassword.reg, of course. Didn't help. Logs doesn't say anything, in fact doesn't indicate that the NT boxes are touching it. Of course, this is wrong, since I can ssh, and two, after I enabled the WINS parts of smb.conf only was I able to even open up "Network Neighborhood". Exact...
