Hello List, We are having a NAS here with 4 TB (sic!) disc space and a samba server as a file server (or better: as one of the file servers). Now the vendor tells us: with samba you can't share more than 2 TB of that. This is not enough. Is that a restriction of Samba, Linux or of the vendor's system? I never encountered this restriction... Please help! -- Mit freundlichen Gr??en

Hello List, I have a strange problem: I have successfully added my debian system to the local active directory domain. Winbind works and gives me Users, Groups, and relations when I call wbinfo. However, Users cannot connect to a share I prepared. It makes no difference if there is no "valid user = " entry, or if I put an correct entry with my test user. All I get in log.winbindd is:

Hello List, I am (unsuccessfully) trying to automatically get a valid kerberos ticket for my linux box. I have - in a test environment: - a windows 2000 server with Active directory and DNS properly set up. - a suse linux 9.0 router with samba3.0.2.rc.1 and heimdal 0.6.-67. - I am able to join the domain and get a valid ticket through kinit, if I enter the Administrator's password or the

Hello List, I have successfully integrated samba 3 to ADS Domain, and now i want to allow domain-users to access services on my linux box. For testing i chose /etc/pam.d/login and tried to allow ADS Users access to the console. But i always get the following errors: Mar 12 12:45:59 cuba90 pam_winbind[9011]: user 'r-ermer+mfeilner' granted acces Mar 12 12:45:59 cuba90 login[9011]: User

Hello, I have a samba share (with security=share) and I can access it from every W2K system after entering the username/password. However, when I try to access the share from Windows XP, XP always tries to connect with the guest account. Can anyone point me to the reason for this behaviour? Thank you! -- Mit freundlichen Gr??en Markus Feilner -------------------------- Feilner IT Linux &

Hello List, I have successfuly brought samba 3.0 on SuSE (8.1,8.2,9.0) to work together with an Active Directory Server. I have (also successfully) enabled squid to use winbind for authentication for internet access. (I need winbind, because only members of a certain AD Group are allowed to access the internet.) Kerberos is running fine. My Problem is: After I add a new user to the AD: With

Hello List, has anybody got pam_winbind get to work under SuSE 9.0? I try to set up a pam.d file to enable users auth'd against winbind to access my mail server. I am testing with console login or ssd files at the moment. I found some docs at samba.org (esp the winbind section), but that didn#t work. I used to manage with older versions, but i can't figure out what went wrong ... al I

Hello List, I have successfully integrated samba to an Active Directory Domain, and it is authenticating against the ADS, but only while the Kerberos ticket is valid. After that period it seems to take only the user/group list from its (winbind) cache. By now i can get a kerberos ticket with "kinit Administrator" or any other username that has administrative rights on ADS and all is

FC4 Samba 3 joining Windows 2003 Domain. I have to manually join the Domain after rebooting. If I set samba to start when booting it doesn't join the domain. I have to smb stop, net join ..., smb start from the command line and then it will join the domain and work fine. Is there something in the smb.conf that I can set to join the domain when smb starts? Thanks, Tommy

I'm having a bizarre problem doing authentication via winbind against a Windows 2003 server. Aside from changing the hostname information, etc. as appropriate for krb5.conf and smb.conf, the configuration I'm using is one that I copied from another server that is successfully authenticating against ads. The two systems I'm having trouble with are running Suse Linux Enterprise

Hi guys; I''m sure you are all bored of hearing the same story over and over... but here it comes again. :) Yep, tomorrow I''m getting another ADSL line installed and I wanted my linux router to handle both providers (new and old). I have my linux router (fedora core 2) setup to do NAT for my current line, but I know I''ll need to change my configuration to

Hello, I have my problems with the Trash folder in thunderbird. Most of the times (it did work, but only for a short period) Thunderbird is not considering the "Trash" folder (or in my case the "Papierkorb") as the trash folder. The symbol disappears and I am not able to delete folders. Deleted emails are disappearing at all. The usual Google solutions like maildir vs.

Hello, I have some users using sometimes Windows XP and sometimes Windows 7. In my smb.comf I only have one profile section, now Samba is creating both "profile" and "profile.V2" in the /home/<user> directory. Resulting in using twice the disk space. 1) Is there any way to link them ? 2) Do I need a profile.V2 section in my smb.conf? Thanks Stonki [homes]
