I don't understand Windows permissions under Samba. I am running an smb server under CentOS-5.4, and have a Windows XP Pro machine ("harriet") as a client. I have set up shares C and D on harriet corresponding to the 2 drives C: and D: on the machine, and I have asked that files should be shared. Now when I mount harriet:C I can see the top level folders, but cannot see Documents

Dear friends: Forgot to include three more data files: http://www.websher.net/tmp/user.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/system.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/userdef.reg Thank you again. Benjamin I've been trying for some time to install my copy of Word97 (which I own, having purchased it directly from Microsoft with my own license number). I have tried the latest Wine 0.9.14. To do

We have an Apple OSX 10.3.4 Opendirectory (LDAP) Server with an SAMBA (3.0.2) PDC Server with roaming profiles for Windows XP (SP1 Prof) Clients on the Server. The Share for the PCs is only shared with SMB. When a PC log off, the profile will be copied to the server and brings the error message that the files prf*.tmp can?t be copied to the server. This error message occours not every time and

whoops, i didn't have much luck attaching the entire file, hopefully this link will work. http://www.lebox.org/u/milan/samba/userenv-clip.txt here's a piece of the log that looks interesting, any hints? USERENV(a0.80) 15:42:18:872 MyGetDomainDNSName: MyGetUserName failed for dns domain name with 1355 USERENV(a0.80) 15:42:18:872 CheckUserInMachineForest: MyGetDomainName failed with 1355.

I've got an issue with roaming profiles with samba 3.0.23a and an LDAP backend. I can use the ldap to authenticate an NT and a local user, and I know alot about PAM, NSS, and general linux. BUT, I can't get ANY roaming profiles to work. Other than my domain name changed for security purposes, the following is my smb.conf file. (I first used SWAT, then did more customization)

Hi David, Configured as you mention, and prior with the other tweaks I had in the first place, Im getting the same results, which is "FSUTIL utility requires a Local NTFS Volume", and mapping it. I then went to contig, `contig -n X:\share\sparesefile 0`, as well as a few other size. Maybe im using it wrong, but some testing on contig has only "Access is denied" when I try

Hi, I have a domain controller which was configured to use the local profiles. We have a relatively small group whose work required it. Now we are moving toward using the domain for all machine with roaming profile. There are a lot of posts dealing with the roaming profiles and the folder redirection. But I've met some issues. My configuration: NS3 and SMB are hostnames of our servers.

We have been using rsync for some time with Linux and FreeBSD, but are just now trying to make it work with Windows. Not as easy as we hoped. I am running the cwrsync client 3.0.6 on a new Windows 7 machine to a FreeBSD 8.1 server. I have an exclude-from filelist, which does seem to successfully exclude the directories given by many of its entries, including these two lines: Documents/My[

Hi, Samba: samba-3.0.21 OS: OpenBSD I built a new WinXP (sp2 and fully updated) box with the the idea of making a Default User profile. I followed the directions in the "Making Happy Users" section of the Samba-3 By Example guide. http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold Folder redirection is working, using the %LOGONSERVER%\profiles\%USERNAME%\

Hi, i have a Samba PDC (no LDAP) and added add user script to my config. I can create the user with no problems, login is possible but the /home/samba/profile/user dir is not created. Any hints on that? script commands i added: add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u' -g ntusers -G ntusers -s /bin/false delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u' add group script =

Hi. My Documents, My Music, My Pictures, and My Videos aren't visible (but accessible) from C:\users\%USER% . "Desktop", however, is visible. This breaks precompiled samples from directx SDK 2004. I extracted them to My Documents/Downloads, and they can't find their resources. This also affects cmd.exe, explorer, total commander. Anyone else experience this? Code: [il at mar2

I upgraded a server from Debian Sarge to Etch the other day. Today I discovered a fairly major issue... All the shares I had set up for guest access have stopped working. The shares are meant to be writable by me and a few others, and read only for guest, but it's flat out refusing to authenticate anyone using guest (or unknown users which should be mapping to guest). SMB.conf is below

Hi all, In lieu of Timothy''s pure Ruby junction code, and Zach''s VC++ 6 issues, I decided to just rewrite the dang thing in pure Ruby using Win32API. That will solve''s Zach''s problem and make it easier to add Timothy''s code, which I plan to add (slightly modified) to the 0.2.0 release. The code is below. One thing I have a question about is how to

Hi folks, I am trying to deploy an LDAP based Samba3 PDC, migrated from an old WinNT4 Domain to support roaming profile for new WinXP clients. But I do not want a full roaming profile. AFAIK WinXP profiles tends to grow. If possible, I would like to roam only the desktop settings, and maybe the navigator (IE or Firefox) configuration. Another important (I believe) information is that our WinXP

Following TOSHARG and "Samba 3 by examples" I implemented Folder redirection plus some security restrictions by building a custom NTUSER.DAT which is the default profile of my users. The problem is that each user has read/write access to its profile share therefore he can replace its NTUSER.DAT. This is why I chose mandatory profiles. Is there another solution? The problem with

ok, I have Samba 2.2.0alpha2 (on RedHat 6.2) up and running as a PDC, I can add Win2k machines to the domain and the machine accounts are automatically created. (finally!) Now, my problem is when a user logs off the machine for the first time, their profile is created, BUT(!) it only makes rwx permissions for SOME of the directories in the profile, this is what I mean: [root@samba profile]# ls -l

Hi I tried to log in on the Samba server as a normal user but failed . The followingKDE error message displayed out; "could not read network connection list /home/<user>/.DCOPserver_linux-server_0 Check to see if DCOPserver program is running" ANYbody to help me out of this problem? Thanks. RGDS, SEGIE.

For some reason It's not erroring now, I will look into it more, but I suspect it鈥檚 the settings, the last thing mentioned David > [globa]l section is fine, as long as it's not also set in the share section. So, yeah, that may have fixed im for the time being not getting the sparse errors, for the first time in 4 months, however, there is a couple other problems, so hopefully they

I have a PDC named GOMER with IP 10.8.3.37 and a BDC named BLDG1 with IP 10.8.3.231, both in the domain ADAMSTEST. I have a user testuser who logged in successfully to GOMER and has a roaming profile in /var/lib/samba/profiles/testuser. So I changed the TCP/IP settings of the windows XP computer testuser uses from the WINS server of 10.8.3.37 to 10.8.3.231 so it would use BLDG1 for
