We're a Solaris/Linux shop, trying to migrate the last vestiges of our NT domain over to Samba. We've got a few users using Windows 20000 workstations, and for some odd reason can't get them to join the domain with local profiles. The Winboxen always try to create roaming profiles on the PDC (which we don't want), and there's no way to force a local profile, other than letting the Windows box create a profile directory when the user logs in, then setting their profile to 'local'. So, in short, we want to force the Win...

Hi folks - I'm having an issue here. I have my samba server sitting on one subnet, and the rest of the clients sitting on another (due to IP administration reasons). I assign both my clients and the server to the same workgroup, but the winboxen clients can't browse to the samba server. The win clients all have WINS resolution turned on, and I specified all of my WINS servers in smb.conf, however, my server isn't showing up in the workgroup. I need the server to show up in the workgroup, because there is a winbox with an unresolve...

...O error One thing that is different/seems odd, is that the smbmount stays running after the disk is mounted. I don't recall this behavior in 2.0.36/1.9.18p8. -------------- I tried backing down to 2.0.36 with Samba 2.0.0 because my backup scheme revolves around duke sucking files off of the Winboxen. The disks do not mount at all. smbmount reports "invalid option". I believe this to be a non-documented "-s" passed from mount to smbmnt. (more newbie declaratives) Please please please help. I am loving the Linux but my 10base100 wire grows cold from no bitzen traffiken....

...e worried about why you get these inferior & contradictory values. You are using some kind of hardware raid controller with a scsi plug to you system and it strikes me as an extremely poor design performance-wise. No wonder it performs so poorly. About 45 MB/s both ways are possible between winboxen and samba with G-NICs and good disks. I only have a bdc and 5 w2k/xp workstations on a low-cost NetGear 8-port G-switch (the other 50 or so clients connect through a fast-lan switch) but I do get about 35 MB/s to and from pcs and up to 60 MB/s between sambatistas. The ext3 file system has a proble...

As mentioned in my previous posting, I've set up a mailserver for a domain of Winboxen, authenticated through Active Directory. After some struggles, I finally got that working. But I also need to receive emails for a few system users on the mailserver (like postmaster, and a couple of accounts set up for maintaining the system). I thought, based on the way I read the docum...

I have 2 issues which I need to resolve on our production Asterisk server: We are currently using Polycom IP600 VOIP phones for our office which are capable of handling 2 calls per SIP registration. What we're finding is when staff are on the phone, Asterisk will pass them a second call which will show up on their display, and an audible beep is heard over the phone (regular call waiting). I

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris
