similar to: Samba as Wins Server and Domain Controller

As much as I love Samba, OpenSores, Linux and apple pie, setting Samba as an NT domain controller used to be a bit of a hack that required a lot of shoe horning, and a lot of reading, and experimentation. Get the books, sign up for the support email list and be prepared for a bumpy ride. The problem is that certain things *should* work a certain way, but such is not always the case and you

First off, here is my smb.conf file: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from gerrym (10.1.1.17) # Date: 1999/11/03 10:53:06 # Global parameters netbios name = PENGUIN security = SERVER encrypt passwords = Yes smb passwd file = /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd log file = /usr/local/samba/lib/samba.log.%m domain groups = adm domain admin group = adm domain admin users = gerrym, root,

Ok, here's my setup: I've had a samba file server going for about a year now. It's Samba v2.05a on a RH6.0 sys. Currently we have a printer server running on a Winblows NT box. This NT box has the following printers: HP5si, (4) HP4000, and a few HP4s. All of those printers have Jet Direct ports on them. What I want to do is, move all the printers over to the Samba box and KILL the NT

<It seems that the print command is trying to find the printer at location 'localhost'. Since this is a network printer it is not at localhost is it?> Yeah, the error messages made no sense to me either! Well, like I said earlier: < The IP address of this printer is 10.1.1.192. I call this printer nero, and have it listed in my /etc/hosts file> Here is a copy of part of my

1. Does anyone know what may be happening here? When I try to map a drive from a PC, I get the following error: "The account is not authorized to log in from this station.". I can map the drive just fine from my PC. Does anyone know what may be going on here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 2. Also, whenever I use SWAT, it takes a long time for the information to be

I had the latest wine running under winblows 98 SE for a week or two with no problems, then I installed winblows 2000 and now I cannot get wine to work. It is important for me to get it running again since I run United Devices cancer research agent (http://members.ud.com) 24/7 to help them find a cure for cancer. Is wine compatible with Win2k, or will I need to re-install 98 again? -- Interested

Hi All I bought the Samsung ML-4500 Laser Printer. I installed it on Mandrake 9.0 successfully using cups and I cant print from the Linux itself. I added it to the Samba as Shared Printer. The Problem started when I wanted to connect from one of winblows :( The process required me to install the driver from the CD but for my surprise I couldn't install the drivers as the Winblow OS

Hi all I have just finished installing / configuring my dovecot IMAP server. Im seeing something weird happing. It seems my Winblows Outlook users are experiencing a problem whereby when they delete an email, Outlook puts a line though the email, but the mail does not delete.

Hi! It may be a little OT but i'm searching for a c/c++ programmer for the development of a remote controlled multimedia player that would run under CentOS with Aja OEM card. We'd use this player in our fully automatic TV broadcast system. We currently have a player (developed in house) that works mostly ok on Winblows but it lacks many features like remote monitoring (SNMP or

I am getting the following prblem from my Winblows printer. Using the CUPS printer Config tool, the printer can be setup as a smb://host_name/printer When I attempt to send a test page, I get the following message: Description: Brother LaserJet Location: royal Printer State: processing, accepting jobs.

Hi: I'm running dovecot on a Fedora 3 box and would like to be able to make a TLS connection to it with my Pegasus Mail program running on my Winblows machine. Does anybody know if it is possible? If it is I could really use some help configuring my dovecot. I have tried for several days but I really don't know what I'm doing and need a direction to start. Thanks, -- Knute

I'm using the latest CVS source under Linux using a playlist of ogg files. When I use a client to connect on the same machine, there is not any disconnect (xmms and zinf). When using a client on a Windows machine, I get mixed results. Zinf on windows will play thru the current song but then stops when the song is finished and does not play the next song being streamed (see log below).

I'm trying to run the 32bit version of Groupwise. So far I can install it without any major hickups but when I actually start to run the Grpwise.exe it will prompt me to login to the groupwise mail server but bombs out with a debug xterm. It appears to be able to connect to the groupwise server ok for verifying the password. If I put in a bogus one it will tell me I have used the wrong

I currently have samba 3.0.2 working with ldap as a filer sever Only. My question is how would I get samba working as file server that would handle 50k users.

Hi Folks, I'm trying to learn R. One of my intentions is to do some Monte-Carlo type modelling of road "accidents". Below, to simplify things, I've appended a little program which does a 'monte-carlo' type simulation. However, it is written in a way which seems a bit un-natural in R. Could someone help me make this a bit more R-ish please? Or is there a

hey all, i know it's kind of pointless to get Deus Ex running in wine now thnx to loki (j/k), but if you have shelled out $$ for Deus Ex winblows version, now you can run it in wine. I got Deus Ex running yesterday with TransGaming's (www.transgaming.com) version of wine. I ran it in both OpenGL and Glide mode, video runs excellent. Mouse input is great as well, much better than the

Hi, Does anyone know the specifics of running two versions of WINE? I have an old WinBlows app that will work only with the 20010216 version, but some of my other apps do run better with the latest version of WINE. Would I be able to stick the old version somewhere in my directory hierarchy and still have a newer version for my newer apps? I suspect that the development folks do something
