How can i get a trust relationship betwen Samba Domain and Win2k ? I?ve tried many ways like, change win2k register, changig some security directives, etc. The win2k is added at Samba Domain like this useradd -g MYGROUP -d /dev/null -s /bin/false WIN2k$ smbpasswd -a -m WIN2K$ Is there other way?? Thanks

I have noticed an inconsistency with the behavior of linux smbfs mounting a remote win2k server while a file is open for writing: 1) If a linux process opens a file that /doesn't exist/ on the win2k server, while the file is open, other machines trying to read the file give the usual 'Text file is busy' (linux) or 'file is in use by another pro...

This weekend I upgraded SAMBA from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3a then made it the PDC on our LAN. Original PDC was an NT4 Server. There is a Win2K Server running Citrix Metaframe-XP, and the old NT4 PDC Server was replaced with another Win2K Server to be the Database Server. I didn't want to bother with setting Win2K up as a DNS and DFS/ADS Server (required for being a PDC), so selected to make SAMBA the PDC for simplicity, robustness, et...

All, For a bunch of good reasons ;), my company thinks of getting rid of our win2k DC and replacing it with a linux RH 7.3 box with samba 2.2.4 or 2.2.5. Before starting working on that, I would like to gather some basic informations. We've got solaris 2.8, linux and win2k clients machines. LDAP: I understand that I need to setup an LDAP server which will replace the win2k...

For those who have been helping me or following the problem I've had of printing from Win2k (SP2) system to a printer on a Linux (Mandrake 8.1) server through Samba 2.2.1a, I have some good news and information that I hope helps other people. At this point I have established the problem is NOT a printing problem. It's a user/access problem that's connected with using my serv...

Hello, I have a network, where users want to login with their same username from Windows 2000 and from Windows XP on a samba PDC. When the machines logon, I can see the OS in the logfile of the machine on my server, but i cannot use different profiles for Win2k and WinXP, because the %a in smb.conf always gives back Win2k. The profiles of win2k and winXP aren't compatible, so i can't just ignore this. I hope someone understood my problem and may help me.

...file is quite complicated. So there are no updates available for this particular issue and I don't expect any for a couple of months. The software in question can generate large files, up to 2 gig, some reads are buffered but not all. But it goes a bit further than this, why does NT4.0 and Win2K behave so differently with network read/writes ? Obivously there are of differences between the two, but if Win95 through to ME and NT4.0 do a decent job, seems a bit strange that Win2K can't deliver the same peformance. Incidently reading the file from NT4.0 to Win2K seems to have no probl...

...o all, This is my first ever use of a mailing list so bear with my ramblings and illiterate prose. I have been using samba from 2.03 to 2.07 for over a year now. We run DHCP, WINS on the samba (acting as domain) box running Mandrake 6.0. Windows machines are running everything from Win95 up to Win2K. With Win2K I have problems with slow read/write, particularly for one application which reads byte by byte. This program stores its data files on the server. Both ftp and Windows explorer file speed is very similar, so I don't like to point the finger at Samba. But this application reading...

I am currently running Samba 2.2.4 on a RH 7.1 box acting as a PDC with two Win2k test clients attaching to it. Users authenticate to the PDC via an LDAP server running on the PDC and that works ok. I can also join the domain with no problems. What I am trying to accomplish is to have a domain user or better yet a group of domain users, be able to log into the win2k box and h...

Dear Samba Users I detected a strange behaviour between Win2k Prof. and Samba and I hope somebody can help me fixing it. The Bug: ======= Samba does not correctly return the volume name back to win2k. In the man pages it is written that by default the sharename is returned as volumename. This works fine for Win98 and NT4 but not for Win2k. If I say "l...

I have a Samba file server and a dual boot Win98/Win2k client. Copying file from the Client in Win98 to the Samba server gives no problems: (I copied one 6 mb file) Samba server -> Win98 Client 550 kb/s Samba server <- Win98 Client 500 kb/s But then from Samba server to Win2k Client: Samba server -> Win2k Client 190 kb/s Samba ser...

I'm trying to locate the list of registry values to adjust how Win2K clients handle the user profile with the Win2K boxes joined to a Samba PDC and logging in with domain accounts. Specifically I would like to DISABLE roaming profiles!!! Many moons ago, the WarpServer Win2K client from IBM came with very good documentation on how to adjust that client to not creat...

Hello, I am new to the list and this is my first posting to the list. I have an ADS running on Win2k3 in Native Mode. I have a user created in ADS. While creating the user I have specified the "Win2K name of user" as testbug and "Pre-Win2k Name of user" is bugtest. Essentially they are not same and do differ. I have a samba 3.0.25d running on Fedora Core 7 which has joined this...

...ed to be VPN - File and Printer Server The printers are: One OCE 700C / CS90 color copier and One OCE 3165 And there is only one problem left. I can install the printer drivers for Win9x & NT on the samba server. But I can't figure out how to install Win2000/XP drivers. When trying to use a Win2k pro client to install the drivers it just complains about the driver not being compatible with my windows version when I press ok in the "Additional Drivers" requester. After selecting Win2000 driver for installation but BEFORE I get any file requester. Do I need another directory below...

Hi, I have the following: Win2k server with AD for domain login validation. There is a secondary Win2k server as well. RH5.2 with samba samba-2.0.4b-19990519 RH6.2 with samba samba-2.2.2-20011014 I wish to setup one or two very basic shares on each of the RH boxes. share level security will be fine. Win2k seems to work ok. X...

Hello all. A couple of days back I posted a question about how I could get a Win2K client to mount a share from my linux Samba server. I was getting the familiar "account is not authorized to log in from this station" error on the Win2K box, despite a set-up that supposedly allowed guest logins *and* implemented the registry hack for clear-text passwords on the Win2k b...

I've discovered a couple of things while troubleshooting my printer setup problems. 1. print$ must be 0744. I ran a level-3 debug, and was seeing "chmod failed" errors. Upping it to level-10, I saw something that pointed to unix rights of 0744; my dir's were set to 0755 or 0777...neither worked. When I set print$ and it's subdir's to 0744, the chmod errors went away.
