Guys, I've been using samba PDC with LDAP backend for about 2 years now, and they're working just fine. All this time, each time I join a new computer (PC with win XP Pro, Me, win98), I use the root account and its samba password.

Hello, dear colleagues using SAMBA. Who could possibly tell me what I am missing in order to make my SAMBA printer share visible on the windows network( i.e., accessing it from a MS Windows machine's explorer, for example )? It is SAMBA 3.0.23 on Linux 2.4.33 machine(originally RedHat 7.3. based, but so much upgraded, even to GLIBC-2.3.6). here are the linked libraries:

Hi- I applied the privsep patch to Tru64 5.1A openssh 3.4p1 and it *almost* works. I get in from the client side and xauth is run, but in the meantime the server side disconnects. Running sshd in debug mode level 3 gives the following output: . . . debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 req shell debug1: fd 5 setting TCP_NODELAY debug1: channel 0: rfd 13

We installed openssh 3.1p1 on our Solaris 2.8 machine using gcc 2.95.2. During the installation, we modified ssh_config and sshd_config to enable X11 and agent forwarding. In sshd_config, we changed the following line to read: X11Forwarding yes In ssh_config, we changed the following two lines to read: ForwardAgent yes ForwardX11 yes Both files are set to permission readable
