Hi, The Samba URL http://us3.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/ does not seem to have a FreeBSD binary package. I tried a web search but to no avail. I have searched the samba list archives and i could not find any pointers either. Any assistance would be most welcome Thanks in Advance, -- Vivek Varghese Cherian Free as in Freedom <www.gnu.org>

Hi, I installed of Samba on Debian GNU/Linux Sarge. Things went smoothly but I got some "failed" ( error? ) messages like account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32 failed for field 4 (maximum password age), returning 0 at the end. Could someone please explain to me what this is. Is it a serious issue??? or problems with the deb package?? Full details below. Thankyou so much. Kind

I am trying to add a GNU/Linux client to a FreeBSD domain controller running Samba. Can some one guide as to how to go about it ? I have managed to add Microsoft Windows 2000 clients to the domain but would like to have some guidance on how to go about adding GNU/Linux clients. I did a bit of searching and could not find a simple how to. A reference URL of sorts would help. Thanks in advance.
