similar to: Browsing via dial-in

I am appending some documentation by my colleague Bill Eldridge that was actually written for our dial-up service, but should work for you purposes as well. A couple notes. 1.)The user must exist in /etc/passwd on the Samba machine or login to the Samba box will fail. 2.)In the example, we don't set up home directories for the users, we are using it for dial in and they usually want to

I think this has been addressed a few times, but without quite satisfactory results. I have a private subnet behind an NAT proxy server (IPMASQ), and a public subnet on the other side with the NT PDC on the public. (Using both NetBEUI & TCP/IP). The PDC will change later, but currently I'm trying to find out how this all works before I do that. I'm trying to make a client machine on

Thanks to those who wrote and suggested I remove NetBEUI from my Win95 machines. Here's the next chapter in the story: First, based on another suggestion, I tried "netstat -a" on the Win95 machine "secretary". It didn't show any kind of traffic on ports 137-139 (even though files WERE being shared at the time). Next, I tried removing NetBEUI from

Is there any way to set up a backup WINS specification in dhcp/Win NT/Samba? Having my WINS server go down the last few days made this a little more desirable, especially since when I noticed the service was dead, I wasn't able to reboot it for a few hours due to usage. Thanks, Bill -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@rfa.org

Hi everyone, First of all: I am not a member of this list, so any message you send to the list(regarding this subject), please send them to me too. When I do smbclient //somemachine/someshare -U someusername and then enter the correct password (Windows), then I get a smbclient prompt. If then do ls, a directory listing is given. So far, everything is ok. Now, I cd two directories down the

For some reason, my Linux machines took over the net yesterday, telling everyone they were PDC & BDC, even though I had an NT machine listed as PDC in both their smb.confs, had no participation in domain browsing, etc., etc. The only thing I had running was Net Logons (which I thought was needed to have a Samba dial-in allow domain logins, but after I turned it off, I realize I'm wrong.

In using 3Com 905/905B's I find the drivers that come with Windows 95/NT don't find Linux or NBT machines properly, but upgrading to the newest drivers at 3Com's web site fixes the problem. No changes to any of the configuration settings. I don't know what other cards have this problem, but ALWAYS upgrade to the most bug-free version of a driver and software before giving up. --

I'm trying to figure out an intelligent way to install apps on the network server, and be able to install once and have all the clients use this. However, it seems like most installations modify the registry and seem to demand a client-by-client installation. Am I missing something on this? Can someone provide me some hints or references to help this? (And is anyone thinking about a SMS/ZEN

Hello all! Sirrix AG, Saarbr?cken (manufacturer of the Sirrix.PCI4S0 4-port ISDN card for Asterisk) has released the new Asterisk dialplan command PPPD (app_pppd). It allows to connect a Linux PPP daemon to an arbitrary digital (ISDN) Asterisk channel to provide RAS dialin and dialout. The PPPD command has successfully been tested with Sirrix.PCI4S0 cards and a standard ISDN4Linux ipppd "on

I'm trying to set up a Linux-based dialin server on our company network. I'd like to have PPP authenticate using winbindd, if possible. I feel like I've almost gotten it to work, but I can't quite get there. Files: /etc/pam.d/ppp: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_nologin.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so account required

We are using samba on RedHat 8.8.

I am running Samba 3.4.8 as a PDC on Solaris 10. I recently made this the WINS master- previously the BDC (Samba 3.0.37 on another Solaris 10 server.) I also use Sonicwall ipsec VPN for remote access (Windows XP clients.) The sonicwall client creates a virtual NIC on the client so that the client can have an IP address directly on the company LAN (ie. the same LAN as the samba

Hi, Is there any mailing list specifically for zaptel-users ? If yes, then, sorry to bother you people, i could not locate it. Can anybody post a link to it ? If not, then i hope, this is the right place to ask zaptel related questions. I'm using vanilla zaptel 1.4.3 on custom Linux 2.6.15.1. I've have a Redfone FoneBridge2 (TDMoE) gateway which i want to use with the zap drivers. It

Has anyone on this list been able to configure samba in such a way so that it will authenticate to windows 2K acitve directory. What I want to do is this: install samba 2.2.7 onto a Redhat linux 7.3 system, then configure samba (I think using something called smb_pam) so that it will join the windows active directory domain. Is such a thing possible? Has anyone here done it? I can't find
