Hi, We migrated from redhat 7.1 to redhat 3 ES and ran into one road block after the other. Most of them were solved except this last one. Users cannot change their passwords and then I read somewhere that samba 3.0 and MS KB828471 or 741 don't want to be friends. Then I upgraded my samba to be samba 3.0.7 (which i guess is the latest).... Then I un-installed the KBB patch being accused.

Have a perplexing problem here... If you UNC to the IP the shares show up fine, if you UNC to the DNS name when I go into the shares they seem to be pointed to /tmp. Also the printer isn't visible when you use UNC to DNS name. Since I'm using server based security is it possible it can't indentify me?

Hi all, The kind of configuration that I use in my sip.conf to connect to various commercial SIP providers looks like this: [general] context=incoming-calls canreinvite=no qualify=yes register => jwinius:passwrd at sip.provider.com/0201234567 [provider] type=peer host=sip.provider.com fromuser=jwinius secret=passwrd This works.

I want to change the permissions on directories, recursively to: drwxr-xr-x but keep the files within the directory tree as: -rw-r--r-- But I can't find an option for chmod to only affect directories. I suppose it won't hurt (in this case) to set the x for the files, but I want some consistancy.

Hi, I got several questions on AR adapters implementation: 1. For SqlServer/Oracle, SQL queries are built by concatenation, and there is no use of parameters. Especially for Oracle, this is very bad, no optimization can be done. Is there a reason for that? Does anybody plan to fix that? 2. When updating a model, _all_ columns are updated. Why not only the diff is updated? Using blob/cblob, it
