Hello, I have to migrate a network with a samba 2.2 PDC to a new host with a Samba 3.0 PDC. Samba 3.0 is up and running now. The only thing that makes me nervous is how to migrate the profiles of the old PDC to the new PDC. Unfortunately usernames/machine names will also change. The profiles are per user (not per machine) and will stay this way. The clients are win2K pro, winXP pro. Is it

hi, i just noticed the following running netstat: udp 0 0 192.168.1.100:137 0.0.0.0:* 19862/nmbd udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:137 0.0.0.0:* 19862/nmbd udp 0 0 192.168.1.100:138 0.0.0.0:* 19862/nmbd udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:138 0.0.0.0:* 19862/nmbd in my smb.conf i got: interfaces = eth0 bind interfaces only =

Hello, I've been thinking about setting up some sort of pool printing, where a job can be sent and the system can decide which printer to send it to. I know that with cups I can define a pool, but I'd like to have samba print a notification as to which printer cups sent the job to. The rationale is: I have multiple printers, each under a maintenance agreement. I have some printers

dear list. this question is rather related to samba, although not exclusively. I consider it related enough to ask here, please apologise if you don't. we are in the process of setting up a samba domain at my company. a goal is to replace our current nt4 servers. another goal is to provide an easy way to access the documents on the lan (and peoples home directories) from 'outside'

Greetings All, I am trying to use MySQL4 as the backend for authentication through Samba 3.0.0. When I finally got it to compile ok (damn that mysql/mysql.h) I cannot get it to work. Below you'll find the log transcript from when I try to connect with any client -- smbclient in this case. And yes, I have the MySQL-part setup correctly using the example mysql.dump from the dist and the user

I'm reading the samba-howto-collection and just got a doubt. Even using mysql or ldap I still have to have one user for each username I insert in pdbedit (smbpasswd/ldap/mysql/etc) ? There's no way to automatize it just like the add user command to add machines in the passwd? regards thiago lima.

Hi, I'm using samba-3.0.1pre1-1 (rpm) and I'm trying to make it as a PDC. Using WindowsXP Pro I'm able to join the domain I've made in samba. The problem is that when I try to join the domain using a Win2000 I'm able to join the domain using 'Network Identification->Properties' , but when I try to add a user in control-panel from the domain I got

Samba-howto-collection mention in chapter 11 that there will be a new Account Management Tool written in TCL/TK that should (hopefully) be announced in time for Samba-3.0.1 release. As we are right now seeing the beta of 3.0.1, I would like to know if there's a beta of this tool, and if so where can I get it? regards Thiago Lima.

There's any way to use pdbedit in scripts just like smbpasswd -s ? I'm writing a script to addusers and I like to use pdbedit to add users, but I can't enter the user password. thanks thiago lima.

I'm using samba 3.0.1pre3 as fileserver for my windows clients (xp and 98) My users are separated in many groups and some dirs should be writeable for 2 groups at once. Unix permissions does not allow to have 2 groups for a directory or file. I could put 777 in the directory and force umasks, but that really anoys me. So I did a little workaround to make it work and now I wonder if it is

I'm using samba 3.0.1 as a file server, with no domain. All my users are exacly the same (even case preserving) as windows logon users. So I think that when they try to access a share the windows should first try to send the loged user and pwd, right? For some reason it is working in some machines and in some is not. When the user tries to access the share it is asked for login/password

In a past thread I've notice that smbmount (and mount's suport for it) will be discontinued and smbclient should be used insted. Sorry if the question is too lame but I use it in some of my systems now and I think I'll have trouble porting then to smbclient. Is smbmount been removed because it relays on kernel smb support? Samba will not need smb support in kernel in the

Hi, I'm trying to use Cups + Samba to make a print server for many purpouses. The main one is to account how many pages where printed by whom and centralize all printers in one server. If I configure samba and cups in the RAW mode using windows original drivers of the printers, everything works fine, but this way I can't use cups accounting. So I reinstaled all my printers

Hi everybody, I have a network that only uses terminal services. Look at the diagram. 20 machines running WinXP <-> LinuxFW-1 <-> 1Mbit link dedicated fiber link <–> LinuxFW-2 <–> Terminal Server I’d like to give the maximum priority for bandwidth to terminal services (port 3389). I’ve changed the CBQ script from LARTC site to suite my needs, but every time I
