I set up a samba 3.0.2 server as member server in a NT4 Domain. Winbind works great and I can "use" the NT Domain users for all I need. At the moment I'm testing different shares with their permissions. The Samba will also be our printserver, so I set up also cups and added the printers to samba with cupsaddsmb - Great tool! . Users could connect and all worked fine. After a reboot

Hey all, I have followed a thread on golem.de, which was about an article regarding mozillas reasons, not to include h264 and to prefere theora instead.

Hallo Samba experts out there, I do have a very strange problem with Samba 3.0.4-1.12 on SuSE 9.1 (kernel 2.6.5-7.75-smp) Samba is configured as a PDC and WINS server.

When browsing the network neigbourhood from XP

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is the string that appears in browser lists restricted to being a single string without spaces, or can you include spaces ?
