I crossed few similar questions in the digest and the news group, however I didn't cross the solution. I set a Linux Slackware as a samba server (16p11) with HP LJ attached to its parallel port. The server takes care of the print jobs too well; The server spool simply swallows print jobs. What should be the set up to let an MS user (95/wfw) monitor ("lpq") and control

Howdy, Is it psoible to use a force group on creation of a file or directory only? I want to use this to make a more efficient use of unic permissions. If I use 'Force Group' then I cannot use the 'other' permission rights anymore in unix. I use a debian distribution (2.1) with Samba version 1.9.18p10-7 Any ideas? Grezzz Ries van Twisk

Hi, I've just upgraded to Samba 1.9.17, but I can't get my samba server that resides in a differnet subnet to show up in the PDC's browse list. I've got samba configured as the local browse master and am registering with the wins server with: domain master = no local master = yes preferred master = yes os level = 65 wins support = no

I have a stabily running Samba 2.2.0 operation in place. I've very happy and for once don't have to fight with a box to do file sharing. I've worked around some issues I've got (like ownership and ACLs) that are not directly samba problems, in fact they are probably Administrator problems. However, I've reached an impass. I can no longer use 2.2.0 because the big beast of

Hello everyone! I'm a brand new user to Samba. I've installed the 64-bit version on a Sun E-450, running Solaris 8. I had no trouble getting the software installed and running, but I can't add any additional users. The first user I added, myself, works fine. I have mounted 2 different shares. However, I can't add any other users. My procedure for adding users is to: 1) use the

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul

In Windows explorer the computer (Penguin) and share (Ring) show up, but when I try to access the share, I get the following message: \\Penguin\Ring is not accessible The share name was not found. Be shure you typed it correctly. I have Samba set up on another Linux machine (OldPenguin) in the same network, and it works fine. Both computers run Red Hat 7.1 and Samba 2.0.7 (which came

Hi -- Does anyone have any strong comments either positively or negatively about the new version 2.2.2 running on Solaris 2.7 or 2.6? I have been running version 2.2.1 since August and have been having some really unusual behavior with random denial for some users from some machines at random times. Is there any evidence that 2.2.2 might help with this? --

Dear Samba & Users. I have spent some time going over the documentation, however I still no not fully understand what the cause is. I am focusing on Samba 3 by Example chapter 5 & 6 specifically Chapter 5 smbpasswd -w 123456 [root@node1 data]# smbpasswd -w 123456 Setting stored password for "cn=Manager,dc=ddesign,dc=com" in secrets.tdb Chapter 6 indicates in the smb.conf to

I am trying to create a Samba Admin account in FDS as per the final steps of http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:Samba I've asked about this on the FDS mailing list with no luck, I am hoping someone here will be able to help me. I've created a file with contents: Administrator:x:0:0:Samba Admin:/root:/bin/bash I then ran: /usr/share/openldap/migration/migrate_passwd.pl

Well I am glad that there has been alot of input on this topic, alot of people are having different opinions but that is because we are not focusing with the problem at hand. The documentation provides full details on how to get samba + ldap working from scratch; but there seems to be a gap between chapter 5 & 6; Once again I will say I love this book; by far the best technical reference

Hello All, We've been running Dovecot for imap for quite some time and have had little trouble with it. However, we recently switched over to using dovecot for pop3 because of simplicity as well as security issues with the older UW based pop server. I've noticed one serious problem. The only client that seems to have any issue at all with the server is Evolution. In pop3 mode, it takes a

Hello, I setting up a new PDC for a new domain using samba 3.2.0 I use LDAP as passwd/idmap backend. I started from scratch just creating the OU for the users/groups/machines/idmaps in the ldap directory, + a user used to bind to ldap. So from there I started winbind and ran net sam provision, which worked great. Now I plan this domain will have a one way trust with one other domain, and as I

We currently have an OpenLDAP server with many nodes authenticating to it for various things. We have an existing server that is now using LDAP to authenticate, but would like to have Samba in turn authenticate to it. We've configured the smb.conf file accordingly and can get this working. Our dilemma is in adding the "Manage samba account parameters" plug-in via the Yast

Hi All, We're having some problems using Samba and supposedly "standalone" rogue NT servers on one of our network domains. When an authenticated samba-served NT domain user on a client machine tries to access a share on a non BDC/PDC NT server that it part of the same samba domain, the standalone NT server sends it a message saying "Your logon time at NTDOMAIN has
