Has anybody done such a thing as this? I'm looking to make this transition as smooth as possible. I have the new fileserver up and running, and I'm using rsync to keep the Novell data current on the Samba server. Any words of advice on transferring the users and groups and permissions over to the new server in the least painful way possible? I have some idea that Novell uses LDAP

Hello, Just wondering what I should be using for the password change program on a BDC. Should it be: passwd program = /usr/bin/smbpasswd -r <PDC address> %u I'm having a problem with passwords not staying in sync between the PDC and BDC with pass backend ldap. The systems are all Fedora Core 4, Samba 3.0.14a, openldap 2.2.23 Kent N

Hello, I use Samba 3 as a PDC. When a user logs in, a user-specific script is executed for him/her, as stated in smb.conf: logon script = %U.bat This is handy when it comes to do some minor tweaks, but can become pain when one have to do bigger changes. Is it possible to execute also a "machine script" (for installing software etc.), and "group script" (users belonging

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis.

Hi, I am having a hard time figuring out how to have logon scripts that only execute if the user is a member of a certain group. I had the smart idea of putting the supplemental logon script in a share only available to the group, and then calling it from the normal logon script using "CALL "path_to_script". However it looks like it always executes that CALL even if the user

Yes please for the notes. I re-ran the tests without the smbldap-tools. I installed phpldapadmin and am able to login to the apache page using the cn=admin, dn=mydomain and create entries. This kind of tells me that LDAP is working Then I run the pdbedit -Lv and it lists all the users.
