...recently tested WinXP Pro. Now with XP you will need to use the reg file included with the samba archive (in a sub directory in the docs dir). Once that has been applied (presuming all accounts have already been created on server) you can join the domain and log in no problems. -- Regards, Deryk Robosson Robosson Business Services 22 Flemington Street Albany, WA 6330 ABN: 56 728 377 499 Phone: +61 4 0842 9835 Email: deryk@iitowns.com

Hi- Our PPP RAS server is running Samba 2.2.8a and winbind. We want to authenticate dialup users through the PDC (Win NT 4 SP6). However, in order to do so, the dommainname needs to be prepended to the username, ie, DOMAIN+USERNAME. We don't want to have to teach all our dialup users to add the domainname when they login to RAS, so we are looking for a way to script this. Has anyone tweaked

...like one (Machine A) to authenticate for itself and Machine B. So far, setting Machine B up as a client pointed to Machine A as a password server seems to work somewhat but Machine B still requires the uid/gid to exist locally in order to work properly. Is there a way around this? Regards, Deryk Robosson Sys Admin iiTowns Ltd.

I recently installed Samba 2.2.5 from the FreeBSD ports. It seems Samba works fine when browsing the Samba server from WinXP client, etc. I can copy files from the Samba server, and even create small files and copy small files TO the Samba server. The problem seems to be if I try to copy any file greater than 16Kbytes or so to the Samba server. When I do so, Windows XP complains with an error:

Hello, I have a Samba PDC sitting behind a Linux firewall/VPN server (using PoPToP). My remote users can log in to the VPN and they are assigned a local IP address in the same subnet as the local PC's and servers. I'd like these users to be able to log in to the Samba PDC domain when coming in via the VPN connection. How do I set up the client PC's (Win98 and 2000) to do this? I

I have a perl script that I'd like to use to create windows 9x login scripts at login time but I cannot get the process to work right. I have RedHat 7.3 (actually the k12ltsp v2.1.0 which is a modified RH7.3) set up as a domain controller which is working well. Manually created login scripts run fine on the workstations at login. I'm using a netlogon script I found at

Hi everyone, Probably a dumb one too, but simply I cannot put my finger on what command to use in order to see who's locally logged on; let me be more accurate in my description: we run win98 PC all accessing shares on the linux boxes via samba. Several users & shares. When I use finger or who to see who's logged on I only get to see who's logged on directly through ssh or telnet,

Hi LUs, I dont have much time at the moment to read tons of documentation. So, I would like to ask a hopefully easy to answer question. Samba is running alright with me, smbclient works fine, but I would like to print from my Linux box over LAN to a printer (HP 560C) connected to a win2k box. Because I can't afford a better or second printer & I also havent got enough room for it

I'm trying to solve this bug with browsing SMB shares with Nautilus: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129890 I posted on nautilus-list about it and the response was basically, "We don't know enough about SMB, maybe you could get a Samba developer to help?" So, do any of you wise Samba people know what might be causing this? Thanks for your help.

Can anyone point me to a doc or a script that shows how to generate netlogon script on the fly and supports users having multiple groups? I tried the Perl script referenced at <http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/AdvancedNetworkManagement.html> but I believe it only supports the user being a member of one group. -- Andrew Gaffney
