Hiya. Is it possible to share profiles between different users with Samba 3.0CVS acting as a PDC, and XP Workstations? All users are using the same profile share; the concept is that there's an "Admin" user which can read/write to this, so I can setup things such as Internet Explorer settings / Desktop/Start Menu items / color scheme, etc..., and all other users only have read

G'day. I'm having a great time trying to get a whole heap of XP workstations (from what I understand, they've been hotfixed+windows updated+whatever else a few days ago) to authenticate against Samba running on a FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE box. Basically, I add user accounts, machine accounts (with both "pw" and "smbpasswd"), then I can get the XP machines to successfully

Howdy, I'm looking for a piece of software I can use for accounting printers shared on a Linux box via Samba, to Win98/2K/XP machines on a domain. In other words, I want to be able to give user a print quota (say, $3.00), then charge them 10c per page they print from a Windows client to a printer shared from a Linux box running Samba. If they're out of quota, it doesn't print

Hiya. Still having fun with his mysql module - it appears to read from the mysql database fine, but I can't seem to add machine accounts (and I can't get too far unless I do this). It might also be my own stupidity too - let me know ;-) I've got a machine called "bbmachine" - without pdb_mysql, I can join the domain no problems. However, I need to rejoin the

Hiya. I'm in the middle of (re)developing a authentication system for an internet cafe here in Sydney. By complete accident I discovered the PDB MySQL plugin for samba yesterday in CVS - amazing. Haven't tried this yet (waiting for samba to compile on a really slow machine, heh) but it looks great. Is anybody using this? Would you recommend it for use in a heavy use type

Hiya... Trying to auth users against a mysql database using pdb_mysql. Using samba3.0 from CVS, running as a PDC. Few questions as well: In the "username column:", I'm assuming I need a real unix user here? Can I have a whole bunch of "nt username" users (i.e. non-unix users) in the mysql db to be auth'ed with samba, but they're all using the same unix user?
