I need to replace a Windows 2000 Server with a Samba box. The W2K is the only domain controller in the network and it runs Active Directory. I know the Samba-3 limitations as an Active Directory Domain Controller, but I don't need absolutely all the features. What I would ideally need is: * Single Sign On * .adm policy files support (for client security and use restrictions - clients are

Hi, I have downloaded Vorbis and played with it, and I have downloaded Speex but not yet played with it. My understanding is that Vorbis is targetted at high-quality audio (music) while Speex is targetted at speech quality audio (telephoney and such). So I have two questions to ask the group: 1. Which would your experiences show is the better codec for recording high quality speech such

Hi all, Having fixed my problems with the call waiting ringing on the GS phones, I needed to extend that with a campon facility (available on some legacy systems - sort of callwaiting without phone ringing). I've managed to implement that by adding/modifying app_queue.c. Basically, when calling the SIP phone, and if busy, I can camp the call onto that extension, with MOH, allowing the caller

I've set up a test Samba PDC with a few test shares. From the first Windows PC I logged on to a local computer account and mapped drives to the shares on the Samba PDC. From the second Windows PC I joined the domain and used a logon script to connect to the shares. My question: What are the benefits of joining a Windows PC to the Samba domain? Both arrangements above appear to meet my

Hi I can't for the life of me work out why this is not working. When in the campon contect if you hit a DTMF key 2 you get moved to the exten => 2 defined in the mainmenu context not the exten => 2 defined in the campon context. What is wrong? The same happens if you hit key 1. [campon] exten => _*1XXX,1,Answer exten => _*1XXX,2,SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNUM}) exten =>

Hi, A potential customer would like to be able to do this: If a call comes in for an employee who is on the phone, allow the front-desk to push the caller in a queue directly to the employee. Now, this is easily done by using queues, but I am curious: What is the performance impact on a system if _every_ employee (phone) has their own queue. How scalable is that in comparison to

I am running a Sun Solaris system with Samba 3.0.0. The security level is user but I want 1 share as guest share so that everybody can read it without supplying a username or password. How can I do this ? Thanks for the help.

hi, does anybody know about the following situatuion and it's solution ? we configured an samba3 as pdc - sure in the way it was often described. but if we login on a windowsXP as domainmember (member of the admin group) it seems like we do not really have full administrator-permissions. we can add useres and can do some other tasks only an administraor is allowed to do. but some stuff

Hi, i have installed samba 2.2x PDC+ openldap server and i have many windows clients (~500 computers). All works ok but i need automatize some tasks, for example i need install many programs on windows clients (new antivirus, new version of ftp client, etc.) The question: Exist any way for install a program as windows administrator when the user login on samba pdc? If i add a user on

Hi, I am trying to implement the callback feature of our old phone system. This feature may go by a different name in asterisk? It worked as follows. If phone A called phone B and it was BUSY, you press a button to enable a callback. User A is free to continue work or make other calls. What this meant is that when both phones became free, phone A would ring, on answer it would call phone B

Having some major troubles with smb and making it a PDC For 2 weeks now I have been testing, and retesting. At one point I had it all working except for password changing. Has anyone goten Samba 3.0.4 to work correctly as a PDC with an smbpasswd back ground (not pam or ldap). If so could you please send me a working copy of your SMB file (only core components needed, no need for shares or

Hi all! I'm going mad about getting my shares mapped to my win2k and winXP machines from my Samba PDC Version 3.0.2 on Debian. Win-machines doesn't seem to execute logon.bat at all, except when i log on as root. I've set the ownership and chmod 0775 all logon.bat files to eatch user on my network. Am i just blind or are there something obvious/very wrong with my config? my smb.conf

I''d like to announce the first release of capistrano-runit-tasks. This came about as I wanted to use runit rather than spinner/spawner/ reaper on my memory limited VPS but should be useable for any setup. From the README: This library extends Capistrano to allow processes to be supervised using the runit package. It replaces some of the standard tasks with runit versions and

Hi! I can't find this bug in FAQ: VisualC++ 5.0 alwais complains "This source file has been modified outside the source editor. Reload?" Sources are located on the last samba server under Linux. System clock on Linux is set to Greenwich, zone offset applied. I tried to set NT clock to be more than Linux, this does not help. -- Andrew

Hi, Day 3 with rails here. Forgive me. If this has been covered many times before, pls just point me at the article. I worked through the Rolling with Rails tutorial (http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html) built up my cookbook. Things work great. I now want to add Ingredients to my app. So, a Recipe will have 1 or more Ingredients and any single ingredient can be

Hi all. Is there a way to collect the digits dialled in asterisk and stored them in a variable ? I'm setting a submenu for the user to change his extension dial in treatment from a standard extension to something like 'automatic transfer' and I need to ask for the number where to transfer the calls, pass it to an AGI and store it in a DB for later use. I also need to ask

Hi, Let''s say I have the following hierarchy of tables: Group <- parent Location <- child of Group School <- child of Location Phone <- child of School Then, if I want to do this: Location.find(...someparms..., :include => [:schools, :group, :phones]) I get an association error (Association was not found). I guess it happens because AR is looking in the Location model

Hi Is there any way to park a call on an extension. Say a customer calls in and wants to speak with Steve. Steve is currently on the phone. How can I park the call so that when Steve hangs up his phone immediately rings and he is connected to the parked call. Thanks Kelly

Hi folks, I have two samba hosted domains at two different offices. I would like them to use the same LDAP backend so that the accounts are exactly the same. Unfortunately, it seems that a users SID is linked to the domain that created it, so another domain cannot authenticate the user, even if it can see it in the LDAP directory, because the user SID doesn't match the domain. My first

I run samba 3.0.1 on a Redhat 9 box. Everything is fine, there are just two minor points which I would like to fix. Firstly, I am seeing the following in my logs. It occurs every few hours in /var/log/samba/log.nmbd and every 10 minutes or so in /var/log/messages: [2004/01/24 01:17:04, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail(485)
