similar to: Browsing - NT/Windows 2000

Just FYI, the FAQ is pretty good about addressing the browsing issues some people have been mentioning. Here at Lumeta, I could never quite understand why our domain would show some boxes from one person's PC and others from another, after all, we're one domain with a Samba server, so what's the deal, right? Well, after reading the FAQ (

Hello, I have been searching for answers now more then a week, but I cannot find a proper solution. Please help me with this: Scenario: Two differnet subnetted networks (1 and 2) connected by a cipe tunnel between two linux Samba boxes over the internet. On network one (1) is a Windows NT PDC installed which currently is the DMB for it's domain (1). On network two (2) one of the linux

Hi everyone, I think I solved it: - I installed WINS on both sides on the PDC's (Samba on the one end, NT on the other). - On both subnets the clients are configured by dhcp to use their own PDC's WINS as their primairy WINS server and the WINS on the remote PDC as their "secondairy" WINS server. - TCPIP configuration on the Windows NT PDC configured to use it's own WINS

Hey all, Our scenario is hopefully quite simple. A client has a MS Small Business Server and about 6-8 Win98 clients. There are also two SCO v5 boxes, which are running samba 2.0.3 (the precompiled version). From the NT box, we can see the SCO servers, but from the Win98 boxes, the SCO servers are not visible. Samba is configured to register its name with the NT WINS server, and I'd

Hello all, I'm using samba 2.2.7a with winbind on a RedHat 7.3 (pre-installed by Dell) server, with an NT PDC/BDC, with the NT PDC acting as the WINS server. Everything works fine on the local subnet 192.168.0.xxx, but we also have an IPSec VPN set up with our western call centre, and users on the western office subnet 192.168.10.xxx can't login to the samba shares. They can login to

Hi all, I have Samba 2.0.7 running on Solaris 7 Ultra 450 , with NT4 ( 1 PDC and a BDC ) servers, and Windows 2000 Pro, NT4 W/S, Win 98 as clients and a mixture of Sun workstations. Everything is working fine, with the PDC also running WINS, DHCP and the BDC running IP Masquerading, , web services and as a VPN server using PPTP. The issue is with one of my VPN clients.

Hey all, bit of an odd problem here; perhaps you can help: First off, we've got two samb a servers; one acting as a PDC, and the other a BDC, both share the same dat, (they sync data back and forth to each other using rsync for backups). Both access LDAP for users and passwords from LDAP. WINS runs only on the first server, and the static entries are in the wins database file for both

Hi! I am having some trouble with a samba domain distributed over 2 subnets (192.168.0.0/23 (supernetted) & 192.168.4.0/24). These subnets are linked over the internet through a IPSec gateway to gateway (network to network) connection (i.e. all machines can reach/ping each other on both subnets). The samba PDC (with LDAP backend) has IP 192.168.0.4 and there is a BDC (LDAP slave) in

Hi all ! I have a PDC and a BDC in 2 differents subnets. I would like to sync their browse list but it doesn't seem to work. Actually here are a part my smb.conf files : PDC ------------------------------ ... remote browse sync = 10.10.20.10 remote announce = 10.10.20.10 security = user encrypt passwords = true domain logons = Yes os level = 70 preferred master = yes domain master = yes

Hi all, An enterprise planed to migrate its fully MS Windows NT domain to a pure SAMBA one. I would like to gain some experience of those one who allready worked on a same architecture. This company is spawn in many geographic parts : One primary site hosting one PDC and a BDC (with WINS services) , many other site hosting a BDC (with WINS replicator) and sometimes some "members

Hi all! This is a repost to this list, hoping to draw some extra attention because I got NO reply whatsoever to the original posting :( I would really appreciate if someone could comment om which of both strategies as described below is best. I am having some trouble with a samba domain distributed over 2 subnets (192.168.0.0/23 (supernetted) & 192.168.4.0/24). These subnets are

Hello everybody. I have two questions today. I am in the middle of moving my NT4 domain over to SAMBA 3.0 with ldap. I get some errors while I am browsing computers in the new SAMBA domain. For example "\\it1132 is not available. You might not have permissions to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. An internal

Yes, this would be possible; 1. Vampire your accounts on to a new Samba DC 2. Disconnect it from network 3. Denote your NT Dc's 4. Rejoin them to the Samba Domain NOTE: As the other person said, while possible, this would be a bitch of a job. You said you need to maintain your NT server anyway, why not just put the files and printers and what not on samba and leave the user accounts to

Hello! Yesterday I wrote a mail to this list. Because it is very urgent and I didn't see any response to it, I kindly please for help again. The problem is: After a server crash I decided to install SuSE 9.2 instead of SuSE 8.0. This SuSE uses samba 3.x. The old (still running) 2nd server uses samba 2.0.3. Both servers are configured to NOT use password encryption and are used as file

Hi, I am a SysAdmin new to Samba. Recently I installed Samba 2.0.5 on Solaris and IRIX to access user homes from NT. I have two problems. Samba seems to be working fine with M$Win98 but with NT, Network neighbourhood doesn't show the two samba servers even though I can see them with "net view" command and also map the shares to drive letters. How do I make my Samba servers appear

Hi, I am a system administrator but new to Samba. We bought new PCs with NT service pack 4 and I am trying to configure Samba(2.0.x) so that users can access their UNIX(Solaris/IRIX) files from NT. I have two kinds of problems. Things seems to be perfect when I try this with Win98 but with NT, I can't see the UNIX server from Network Neighbourhood. But "net view" shows all the

Hello, I'm planning migration to Samba over Debian Etch servers from NT domain with Windows NT servers. I have only one domain, with 1 PDC and 5 BDC distributed on various subnets. Unfortunately I have running various services in PDC and BDC servers that I must remain after the migrations, so I can't stop PDC and BDC servers permanently after the migration to Samba. Can I deactivate

Hi, I have a problem in accessing samba server from NT network neighbourhood. I can see the samba server icon on neighbourhood. But while trying to access then it's asking for user name & passowrd. I am not using local user & password from unix box rather it should be authenticated from NT PDC and accordingly I have modified the smb.conf file. Here is the sample of that. 103 flara %
