Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am looking for a good and new book for Samba which includes descriptions for the new features (maybe using Samba and Win2K), too.

I set up winbind on one box successfully. Now a friend told me that it might be better to use ActiveDirectoriy (the PDC and all other servers are win2000). What is the difference in both approaches? which is 'better'? I feel that ldap is the more general and cleaner solution. Is that true? My windows-admins will get rid of wins soon. does winbind rely on wins? can libnss-ldap also create

Recently, a problem developed in storing IE5's Temporary Internet Files on our samba exported network scratch space. In tracking it down, I found that the Win2k client attempts to set the ACL of the file "Content.IE5/index.dat". However, the this call ends up setting the mode of index.dat to 0407 (-r-----rwx), thus making the file unmodifiable to the user who created it. (This in

Hey, Would anyone be able to point me to info on ACL_REVISION3 specifications? My lowly MSDN and SDK seem to only know about ACL_REVISION2. A file on Win 2000 share has revision 2, same file copied to samba share has revision 3. Context: I am looking at the security descriptor for files under Windows 2000.

Is there a way to get information on a print job from the command line? For example: > smb_print_query smbprn.00002.a12345 jobid = pr1000-555 filename = Notepad - sample.txt owner = dan_thibadeau machine = mylaptop size = 1234 bytes or something like that? Thanks, Dan Thibadeau

Dear all, as you already know, it is possible to send short winpopup messages to Win boxes using the command smbclient -M host. If a Win user wants to reply, it should be possible to use the Windows' WinPopUp GUI to reply, but the message gets lost somewhere. For example: smbclient -M winbox Added interface ip=192.1.1.125 bcast=192.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Connected. Type your message,

I have subsequently compiled 2.0.7 successfully on Solaris 7, with Sparc 'C' Compiler 5.0. 2.0.7 and previous versions have compiled successfully and work fine on Digital Unix 4.0.D. So have had to abandon 2.2.2 for time being in favor of 2.0.7. Since samba compilations have been successful before, was not logging output :-( The gist of the errors are as follows: Compiler failed on:

I've described printer problems with 2.2.2 & Win2k SP2 in an earlier message. At one point, using an earlier version of Samba, on an earlier install, the printing worked just fine. Does using Samba as a PDC for logons from Win2k boxes do anything to effect the use of printers and print shares? Or are the two completely separate and have no interaction or effect on each other?

Hello, I want to run swat on my fbsd 4.4 box, but i do not want to run it via inetd. Is there a way i can start swat in standalone mode? Also, printers, is there a way i can auto download 95/98/nt/2k drivers from the same printer share? Thanks.

I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps

I'm running FreeBSD 4.4, with Samba 2.2.2 freshly installed, with the FreeBSD Ports package to install files in correct places. I've a Win2k system tring to join the domain "FREESIDE" It will authenticate ok from the win2k command line. "net use x: \\crypton\homes /USER:FREESIDE\jerry" It seems to work ok during the first part of joining a domain, i.e. password

I keep getting "Windows cannot copy file \\ssp1\profiles ... to C:\Documents And Settings\..." when trying to log into a Samba PDC using a Windows 2000 SP2 client. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? I am including my smb.conf file, below: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = DC1 netbios name = SSP1 server string = Samba Server encrypt passwords = Yes update

Hi -- Does anyone have any strong comments either positively or negatively about the new version 2.2.2 running on Solaris 2.7 or 2.6? I have been running version 2.2.1 since August and have been having some really unusual behavior with random denial for some users from some machines at random times. Is there any evidence that 2.2.2 might help with this? --

Hello, I have been trying off and on over the last couple months to get printer drivers installed on the server side of samba. And have emailed the list with copious notes, got nowhere, and gave up. (I realize that is is a beta feature and am not complaining at all: I can live with out it) But; I have a little bit more info after trying to install the printer driver from a client and failing

This seems to be an excessive amount of cross posting. I'm trimming down the CC list.
