Hi everyone. Just wanted to ask a question here. We are running RH 7.3 as our samba PDC. Everything is working great and im really enjoying the setup. However, we need to add two Windows 2000 Adv. Servers to our Domain because of software that we run on this. I probably already know the answer, but I figured I would ask this anyway. The default account on the Windows servers is

I am so stoked I just had to share this with y'all. I just "SEAMLESSLY" migrated all of my machines and users over to my new Gentoo Linux Server. I even kept the same: domain name and old PDC NetBios name. The trickiest part was getting all of the users to keep their same profile, but I managed that by cloning the RID and Lanman/NT hashes for the user accounts. Free at last! #

Hi, I have a problem connecting my Windows98 to the Samba server.

Hi everyone, I am at my wits end and am hoping one of you can help me out.

Hi again, My goal here is to 'fdisk' my Windoze PDC, and I think I just need a little more help.... OK, I've susccessfully set up Samba 2.2.8a and OpenLDAP 2.0.27. I was able to join a XP,NT, and 2000 box to a new "test" domain, and log into it. Now I want to shut down my WindowsPDC, change my NetBios and workgroup name on my Samba server, and have it take over without

OK I am a 2.2.8a/LDAP user and have thus far been very skeptical about making the switch to Samba3. I have seen inconclusive evidence of Beta 3's success rate from the postings since its release. So my question is... Has anybody been able to get Samba3b3 to act as complete replacement for their Windows or Samba2.2.8a PDC? How about with an LDAP backend? Is it stable and bug-free enough

Hi guys, Here's what I'm doing: Upgrading fro Samba 2.2.8a to Samba 3.0.2a Simultaneously migrating to a new server. My checklist: << (*)=done , (-) = remaining >> * Download and install Samba 3.0.2a on the new server * Clone (by hand) hostname, sldapd, nssswitch * Hand edit new smb.conf to match the old config. * Export ldif file from old LDAP db * Dump old Domain SID

Hey troops! Well, it seems that I'm the one that needs some helps this time. Here's the situation. I've got a suXP Pro box with SP1 on it that whenever I try to add any 'domain_user' to any 'local_group' it gives me the following error message: "Information returned from the object picker for object "<username>" was incomplete. The object will
