similar to: NT Domain and Samba as a PDC

Hi, Anyone know where I can get a .tar.gz of 2.0.2? I'd like this version, since the PDC code is reportedly more stable than 2.0.3. Or has this been fixed in 2.0.3?

Hi all, Is there no INSTALL file that ships with samba? I thought there was one there at one time. Is the install procedure as simple as: ./configure [possible various options] make make install Or is there more to it than that? Thanks, -- Seeya, Paul ---- plussier@baynetworks.com Broadband Technology Division - Bay Networks (now a Nortel Company, Eh? :) If you're not having

Hi all, I want to move a filesystem off of my NT server over to my Network Appliance NFS server to then be shared via Samba. I assume the easiest way to accomplish this would be to use smbtar. Do I then use smbtar to extract the tar file I create with smbtar, or, can I use gnutar? Does it matter? Am I safer sticking with smbtar? I'm guessing that since smbtar is a wrapper around

Just wondering if there is a way to get drive namings to change according to who's logged into the network. ie. 'bob' logs into windows networking and gets... E: 'bob' on server kiwi. Now if 'sue' logs into windows networking on the same pc she gets... E: 'bob' on server kiwi. But E: contains sue's stuff. So is there a way into making 'sue'

Hi all, I've recently set up a samba server, but just discovered that people on the "other" side can't reach it. The system shows up in Network Neighborhood, but you can't double click on it. It returns a message saying that the server is either inaccessible, or that I misspelled the name (How I did that with just one mouse click is beyond me ;) I had 'allow

Hi all, I've been running a Samba server here for over 6 months now will great success. This past weekend I moved the Samba server to a new subnet, and now I can't see any of the various aliases from Samba server. I was previously able to see the aliases in NN across my 2 different subnets by using the 'wins server = ' parameter. The wins server I was registering with is on yet

If you don't want to type the ip adress of your samba server every time you connect, add a entry to your local hosts file and lmhosts file. You will find this files (and sample files with extension ".sam") in the windows main directory of Win95 and under "system32/drivers/etc" on WinNT 4.0.

Hi all, I'm using Samba 1.9.18p8 under Solaris 2.5.1. Within my smb.conf file I am using the 'netbios aliases' option to make my server appear as 4 different servers with an smb.conf.%L to load the specifics of each: netbios aliases = hardware software diagnostics homedirs include = /usr/local/samba/var/smb.conf.%L The problem I'm encountering is that the only comment I see

Hi all, I'm trying to build 2.0.3 and make gives me the following error: Compiling client/smbmount.c client/smbmount.c: In function `close_our_files': client/smbmount.c:242: `NR_OPEN' undeclared (first use in this function) client/smbmount.c:242: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once client/smbmount.c:242: for each function it appears in.) make: ***

Hi all, Is there a way to use the "encrypt passwords" and the "passwd chat" programs simultaneously? smb.conf(5) doesn't mention anything about them being mutually exclusive, yet when I run testparm on the smb.conf file, I get: ERROR: the 'passwd chat' script [...] expects to use the old plaintext password via the %o substitution. With encrypted passwords

Did I understand from something Jeremy said recently that a recommended mode of operation for those wishing to try the full PDC support might be: 1. all file servers running production version (currently 2.0.4b) 2. single PDC machine running HEAD branch in order to get the stability and performance of the production version while still being able to use the latest PDC functionality? In

I was very excited when I ran across the "UNIX password sync" directive in the smb.conf!!! THAT would be convenient and really add to the making the server seamless!! Unfortunately I haven't been able to get the unix and smbpasswords to sync from changing within win95. The posts I've seen in the mailing list concerning sync have so far gone unanswered :-( I'm just looking

Sorry if this is an old problem. I have just installed 1.9.18p10 - the latest version. I noticed the nis homedir option in the config file, but have not had much luck in implementing it. I had hoped it would mean my [homes] shares would map to the correct server - the one which physically carries a users home directory - regardless of the machine to which the connection attempt was made. My

'llo, It was suggested that I added "nt acl support = no" to my smb.conf file, in order to get rid of the "error packet at line 588 cmd=115 (SMBsesssetupX)eclass=2 ecode=2" error. (Apparently it has something to do with Word's temporary files that are created with mode 000 which stops it from completing a file save.) I added this to my smb.conf file

I do not know how many others are in this case, but I must use either floppies or tapes to transport the Samba product after I download it. Floppies are more convenient than tape because the tape medium is TK50 on OpenVMS and it is very slow. Is is possible to produce the production release in a two archive set so that it can be more easily sneaker-netted? Thank you, John Malmberg

Hi everyone, we are working in an big NT environment and now have a new Unix-area. What i want to do, is to change the unix login passwords according to changes in the NT system. The aim is, to simplify the password system, so that the users only have ONE password for everyting. Independend where they change it or on what system they are working on. I have successfully connected the samba

Hello, I had Samba 1.9.18 running on my Slackware system just fine. I backed up my smb.conf, then downloaded and installed the precompiled 2.0.3 binaries from the Samba website. I installed by moving the samba-2.0.3-Slackware.tar file to the root, and then by running tar -xvf on it. The samba daemons were stopped at the time. I copied my backup smb.conf back to /etc, and then I joined the NT
