I've run into a problem in which Visual Studio 6.0 gives an Internal Compiler Error message when compiling from a samba share. The project compiles fine locally and from shares on Windows machines. To me this suggests that the issue is with Samba. I've tried adding full access to the share where the project is housed, but to no avail. Any ideas? We are running samba 3.0.9-1.3E.2

Hi, A few weeks ago I announced a rewritten PROFILES.txt on the mailing list. It is available on http://users.iafrica.com/p/pc/pcs/profiles.txt The idea of it is to explain exactly how NT and 95 handles roaming profiles and then specify how to set up samba to enable both to handle roaming profiles. Most of the document it finished, and I would like to contribute it, but I have a few things to

When using CUPS with Samba 2.2.x do all printers need to be installed per user? That is, can I not go through as administrator in WinXP and install all of the printers for, say, a group of labs, and then have them installed and available to have them set as the default w/ a script as users login as domain users? K -- "What I look for in any relationship is contact on the nonverbal

Has anyone seen this error before? ADVANCED INF INSTALL error: "%Remove_nodir_error%" This is the error that all domain users get upon first logon with WinXP. It only appears for the first time they login, and it has nothing to do with any registry tweaks because it comes up even for a fresh XP install. Further, subsequent domain logins don't have this error but there is a

MS Access XP appears to handle the default printer setup differently than the other apps in the Office suite. Here is the problem we are running into. When you open Access and mouseover the printer icon on the toolbar it usually should display a popup after a remote procedure call that tells you what the default printer is set as. This is very important because a great deal of the

I'm looking for input from other institutions out there that are using the samba PDC/BDC setup. At our institution we have the potential for nearly 500 network clients on our domain and we are considering expanding that to 1,000 clients. According to John Terpstra in his Samba-3 book there should be a BDC for every 50 network clients on the domain. We are currently running a solitary

A while back there was a thread in which many people were discussing how to make Netscape work with roaming profiles. There was some talk about how this would require a script to modify the registry, etc. I just talked to one of the NS programmers who said that the problem would be fixed and even enhanced in a version 4.5. He didn't say whether the 4.5 code was going to be an internal or

I was just wondering if any thought has been given to shared folders and how they might be implemented yet? True shared folders are compelling enough to our organization that I've been looking into moving to Cyrus from Courier, but transparent folder migration looks to be nearly impossible for more than a handful of accounts... so that leaves me back at hoping courier or dovecot can

In "the 500 user office" section of the Samba Guide, John Terpstra lists some seriously disappointing numbers for Samba scalability. To quote, "As a general rule, there should be at least one Backup Domain Controller per 50 Windows network clients. The principle behind this recommendation is the fact that correct operation of MS Windows clients requires rapid network response
