Is there a trick to append an additional directory level onto the defauly behavior of a [homes] share looking in /etc/passwd to find the users Linux home dir? It would offer a bit of protection if Windows clients ended up in say the WinHome directory within their Linux home directory when logging in from Windows so they are not tempted to tamper with their desktop settings files for Linux from

I'm trying to get a linux machine integrated into an all-Windows network. Following the instructions of the *wonderful* Official Samba-3 HOWTO, I was able to get the machine to authenticate with the ADS. I can also allow domain users to log into the linux machine. What I would like to do now is have a way for the users' network share/home directory in the window environment to be

Hi, I have been trying to use samba for a while as a way to have an identical desktop/startmenu/profile/favourites/etc on multiple PCs. Samba is setup as the PDC and I can join the domain and login. The problems started firstly when I wanted to have some sort of caching and also logon concurrently to different pcs with the same user. The main problem being that whichever computer I log off

Hi Samba List I have the problem to modify an entry for a user in samba with tdb backend. My OS is OpenSuSE 13.1, Samba 4.1.21.

I'm looking for help configuring Samba-3 to allow me to share out home directories from a UNIX host to Windows XP clients so that my Windows domain users can read and write to their home directories on the UNIX host. I've attempted to follow the examples in "Samba-3 by Example" to no success. I've also followed the tutorial: http://bob.rasey.net/archives/000137.html, which

How can i map their home dir that is on a w2k member server and how can i create their home dir on the RH9 box when the domain users login?

We are using Windows 95 OSR 2 clients here in our lab in conjunction with Samba 1.9.18p10 on Linux kernel 2.0.35. We are getting intermittent login failures that I can't figure out. The user will type their username and password in, hit OK, and the system will respond, "The domain password you supplied is not correct, or access to your logon server has been denied." If the user

We have a samba 3.0.7 server on RHEL-3 (rain) joined as a domain member (security = domain) to a win2k pdc (clouds) for the domain DOM. We have several unix users and two Win-only users. The unix users have matching AD accounts on the win2k, but the Win-only users do not have unix accounts (and we want to keep it that way). So, it seemed that winbind would be the best way to bridge the gap: 1.

As I mentioned in a previous note, I'm a new Samba administrator. I'm trying to set up both roving profiles and system policies on the Win 95 machines in our computer lab here. I have used the policy editor (POLEDIT.EXE) to define a CONFIG.POL, which I have placed in the [netlogon] share. I also used a newly-installed Win 95 machine to create the exact *initial* configuration of desktop,

Hello, Samba 1.9.16p11 on Sun OS 5.6 For a NT4 Server SP4, I can not access to the samba server. When I look at the log.MachineName file, I see the error "password server not avalaible". I must say that it is working fine with an NT4 SP4 server on the same domain with the same user account. I have change the registry to authorize non-encrypted password. ...... Thanks. --
