I had a Solaris 2.7 server up and running with samba 2.0.2, and everything was great. I downloaded 2.0.4b and installed it. Since then, printing no longer works. The only way someone can print something is if there is a drive mounted from the server to a client (it doesn't matter who mounts the drive). As soon as the drive gets unmounted printing stops working, and the Microsoft clents

Hi, Just that is my question: Are the connection between DC encripted?. I'm planning to create a secondary DC on a external dedicated server and i want to know if the connections are secure, because is not a good idea to have authentication data traveling through internet without any kind of encription... My main DC have ldap through ssl activated and working fine, but i don't know if

Hi all, As WinXP begins to loom larger in our environment, we're seeing a consistent pattern that XP machines (mostly XP Professional, possibly others) take an excessively long time to access shared printers: I'm told that it takes up to 5 minutes to initially install the printer on the local machine, and it typically takes around 45 seconds to deliver print jobs to the queue. The print

Current situation: a) lots of Windows NT 4.0 workstation clients b) quite a few Samba 1.9.18p10 servers running on Suns c) 1 Samba server running as WINS server d) NO Windows Servers e) 1:1 correspondance between Netbios names and DNS names f) DHCP currently tells the Windows machines the WINS server. Problem: If WINS server goes down, every Windows NT workstation can not mount anything

Hi, I have a IBM ThinkPat T30 a Cisco Aironet wireless internal in the laptop 802.11b only. It works great with open Acess points, but when i try to connect to encripted ones. I got the dialog box asking for the passphrase 128 bit, I enter it and after that i receive the dialog box again! Maybe my card do not support WEP or I am doing something wrong? Here is part of what i can see on

Hi there, I have a really ugly problem, which, as I know is partially selfmade. But to the problem: I have five servers running samba-2.2.3a-12 (latest Debian Woody release) which are controlled by one master server. All of the five servers act as pdc for an own nt-domain. Now to keep the administrative work as low as possible I have this one master server. Via this server we/our customer

Hello Fach, I have used openvpn for a while and in the new release thereis a feature called "server mode" that makes posible to have a full network of vpn links besides a single TUN/TAP adaptor (a pure software NIC) in the server. I haven't used that feature, but I think this is what you need. Also openvpn runs on linux, *bsd, solaris, windows, and maybe in other OS. Miguel >

Currently compression and I assume if encryption is implemented it is turned on or off during mount. There are however many times when a user may want to select which files/directories they want to compress or encrypt. This will also be helpful when implementing btrfs support in grub for example. We can say the disk can be compressed/encrypted except for /boot so compression/encryption

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is there any way to disable logging of failures during pam_authenticate? I ask because OpenSSH is currently generating an extra "authentication failure..." message at each login. The problem is that OpenSSH likes to try a blank password attempting any other authentication. This is a shortcut for anonymous SSH servers (e.g. OpenBSD's

Hi I have two different distributions running, RedHat 6.0 and Slackware 7.0. Both machines are running Samba 2.05a. When I try the smbmount command on the RedHat machine, it has no problem mounting the smb service.

After verifying my smb.conf file, the only thing that changed was this "panic action" command was added. My smb.conf is attached. All our workstations stopped working. If I change the computer name, switch to workgroup, then try to re-join the domain under a different computer name, it works. Do you know what .tdb file machine information is stored in. Also I exported all

All, I have been working on a component that is included with samba called SMBSH. The binary allows you to automount your NT shares by accessing your profile . I have been working on this for the last few days and have been unsuccesful at getting it work. Now I am not much of a programmer, but I did my best to try and troubleshoot this. However it just does not want to work in Linux. I
