Has anyone looked into creating custom templates for Microsoft's System Policy editor ? I like the idea of managing workstations through the NTConfig.POL file, but the included templates are quite a bit outdated. Does anyone know if it would be worth-while to take the time and create an updated Template to add policies to manage newer features of Windows 2000/XP through the NTConfig.POL

Hello Everyone We are upgrading to Samba4 from Samba 3.x, we got a fully functional domain over the last 4 years and we are trying to do our migration as smooth as possible. I have migrated, users, machines and everything to the new samba4 domain (not in production yet), however when i log and old machine from the samba 3.x domain to the samba 4 domains, the local policy still applies, i suppose

Hi What I would like to do is have my custom adm files in a shared folder on my samba server so that if I make a change, it updates the windows XP clients on my network in a similar fashion to active directory on a windows server. However, I cannot seem to find any support for this in samba in the documentation I have read. Do I have to go to each machine and use group policy editor to load

After trying to get all the policy stuff nailed down I figured I'd save others the trouble, so I wrote up a primer and posted it on my site at http://www.ehsco.com/reading/20051031.html Hoepfully that will save others some trouble -- Eric A.

...ng but it worked. I copy-pasted the LOCAL SID to the GLOBAL SID in "secrets.tdb". Now in your case, it would probably be even easier to just think up a new 7-letter word to overwrite the current name in both "smb.conf" and "secrets.tdb". Unfortunately WARLOCK is also tatooed in several places in each client's registry. Hopefully, pasting over the new name with a .reg script will obviate the need to re-join the domain. Try it out, when there is no one to disturb. Back up "/etc/samba" and "/var/lock/samba" with smb and nmb stopped so that you can...

Hi, For reasons best known to the IT admin before myself, we currently have a domain name of WARLOCK. I want to change this. We have about 15 WinXP Pro client machines on the domain as well as a few linux domain clients. A bit of reading shows that it should be as simple as doing a net getlocalsid, making the change, followed by a net setlocalsid. I started doing this when I noticed something

I came across this www.gluster.org Has any one tried it . Is it a true parallel file system allowing concurrent read and write to a file by many processes. Will it be suitable for HPC applications. -- Regards-- Rishi Pathak -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi I am setting up a phone system for a small office. The office will have 5-8 phones and a fax line. There are 4 hunt lines coming into the office. We have made no hardware purchase yet. Being an asterisk newbie, before I suscribed to this list I just assumed that I would buy voip phones and connect all the phones to a private ethernet network. However, I see many people inquiring about FXS
