I am a newbie and trying to install Wine-20050111-i486-S10.gz. I untarred it, I think, and it created several directories in my Home/Wine folder. I can't get the ./tools/wineinstall to work though, it keeps telling me there is no such file or folder. I am in the same directory with the Readme file. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have read all the instructions I can find on

Hello, When Samba is configured to use smbpasswd as a backend, it uses an algorithm to construct SIDs from uid/gids. The SIDs are not stored anywhere. But when ldapsam is used as a backend, without changing anything else to the configuration, a SID *has to* be stored in the entry of each user. I don't need nor want that. - Is it possible to have a LDAP backend but still use the algorithm to

Hello, It seems that the smb.conf parameter "ldap user suffix" has no effect when searching for users. When searching for a user in the LDAP server samba uses the simple "ldap suffix" without prepending the "ldap user suffix". But it works for "ldap group suffix". The description of these two parameters are similar in the manual for smb.conf. Here are

Hi all, I've got a printserver working using cups/samba,ADS. I'm want to pass any jobs through a custom script which will do various things, including checking user quotas from a custom database (I know there are print quota solutuions out there that will fit in nicely with cups and samba, but I need to do this a different way due to some custom things we need to do) I've tried

Hallo @all, since 3.0.10 parameter "min password lenght" is deprecated. If removing the entry from smb.conf, the default of "min password lenght = 5" is used. smbpasswd uses this entry if creating or changing passwords. How can I set a min password lenght of 2 characters without the deprecated parameter when the passdb backend is smbpasswd? Think "min password
