Hi, is there any way to setup samba accounts (which then use a common share) but do not have a unix account? the scenario is, that I want to support a goup of users who have an "samba account" on my linux box and can use a certain part of the filesystem as file server. But I don't want to give them a unix account to ease user management and avoid, that they can use other services

Hi A customer of mine has a strange problem with samba 2.2.8a They have a number of directories with 600 - 800 files in each directory. When new files are added to the directories, and they do a directory listing on their PC's ( Win 2000 pro SP2 and SP3 ), the last 10 files are not shown. THis happens both when using "explorer" or doing a `dir` in an command prom window. The

Hi, I'm testing the in-place upgrade from 4.7.5 samba to 4.8 and unfortunately it breaks. After the upgrade samba seems to have trouble to find his way through the db: ------------------ #ldbsearch -V Version 4.8.0 #ldbsearch -H private/sam.ldb Unable to determine the DomainSID, can not enforce uniqueness constraint on local domainSIDs search error - No such Base DN: DC=example,DC=com

I have 3 disks that I want to setup in a raid 1, my questions is should I setup the 3rd disk as a spare-disk or should I mirror all 3 disks all the time? Will it perform *much* better to only mirror two and have the 3rd as a spare. Is it not safer to mirror all 3 drives all the time ?

I can't choose LILO as boot loader anymore in the install process? And what is the advantages in GRUP vs. LILO that are so great that LILO has been deleted all together? One big disadvantages when forced to use GRUB is that it is a hassle to make the disks in a RAID1 bootable. https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-March/msg05935.html and RAID1 seems pretty useless when it is the

Hi There seems to be a discrepancy in the s4 schema concerning security groups. Domain Users comes with gidNumber: 100. This is however contrary to what the schema allows. You can show this as follows: Create a new group. samba-tool group add mygroup. Use phpldapadmin to add the gidNumber attribute. There is an error because gidNumber is provided by the posixGroup class and that objectclass is

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

Hi Everybody, I seem to still be having problems with the caching of files on the PC. I have tried to set the oplocks = false variable in the smb.conf file but that has not seemed to help. Here is what I do to see the problem Open a file on the PC, the close it. Go to a unix machine and modify the file. Go back to the PC and re-open the file. I will get the old copy of the file for a few

Hello, I followed the steps at http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netos/article.php/3487081 for adding a v3.0.21a samba and winbindd server to a MsAD domain and configuring nsswitch.conf to find passwd and group info from winbind. This seems to have worked out fine, except that I can't 'see' or 'recognize' certain groups via getent or via wbinfo -g. E.g. I can see the

I have a (mostly) windows environment into which I am attempting to integrate a SAMBA based printer server (Solaris 2.5.1 SPARC). I'm running SAMBA 1.9.18p10. I need the print server to do two things: 1. Perform as local network browser/WINS server for the local subnet it is on (10.255.8.128/27) 2. Register itself and clients on it's subnet with the browsers/WINS servers/whatever

Sorry to bother, but I can?t understand a lot of your double standards ... On the one hand develop a proprietary product "CrossOver Linux", but at the same time cooperating with the project "Wine" that's free. Wine could be today better than CrossOver Linux, but who knows, perhaps you are sabotaging and delaying the Wine project. I Don?t understand why you don?t develop

Dear Samba List: Thx in advance for all help that can be provided. I have set up a samba server on a RedHat 8.0 box, and I know I've got it configured correctly, because I can do everything I would ever want to do with it with a networked Windows XP laptop. However, a third and fourth machine, both running 98SE, also on the network, cannot see the server, no matter what I try. These two

Under Aix directories have the mode 024xxxx instead of the customary 04xxxx. Because of this when you sync a directory to or from an Aix system it's never up to date. Here is a patch which fixes this. It causes rsync to look at only the bits that chmod actually influences, 07777, when deciding whether or not the modes differ. I was surprised there wasn't an existing constant for 07777,

I would like to change a few things in CUPS, but I would prefer to use the source for the version of CUPS that I already have installed using yum. Mostly because I'm quite happy with the way it works except a few details. Is there a way to get the source using yum or should I go to http://www.cups.org/software.php and get it from there ? The version I installed with yum is 1.1.22 and on

I installed CentOS 3.3 some time ago and the first thing I did after the install was to run a little script that adds my user plus a few other things. The script adds my user like this USER="ulrik" PASSWD="<mypasswd>" /usr/sbin/adduser $USER -p $PASSWD It seemed to work fine except I couldn't login? I searched Google for reasons why I could only login via ssh as

I installed CentOS 4 Beta on an ATA disk to have a look at it, and on the same computer I have a Windows installation on a SATA disk. In the CentOS installation process it could see the operatingsystem on the SATA and everything looked good, it said something like "Other... /dev/sda" (not quite sure, it looked right so I didn't really take note of it). Now when I want to boot the

I wanted to upgrade my ClamAV but ./configure gave this error checking for zlib installation... /usr configure: error: The installed zlib version may contain a security bug. Please upgrade to 1.2.2 or later: http://www.zlib.net. You can omit this check with --disable-zlib-vcheck but DO NOT REPORT any stablility issues then! but yum gave this message # yum install zlib Gathering header information

Can I set up anonymous (unauthenticated) printing on a samba server that is also hosting user-level security? I have looked through FAQs and sample setups and don't see it, but I figured I would ask. Thanks in advance, - Pete pmkofodSHIFT2datasages.com
