similar to: Samba with Winbind

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.

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

I have setup Samba default from RedHat 7.2. ver 2.2.1a as a PDC for my windows =network. I all works great except when i try to use MS Word, i get this error "word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error" does anyone know how to remedy this problem. permissio for the my profile is okay, i am able to write when i log out, only when i try to use MS word, this error pops

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 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

Hi!

I know in some ways the answer is RTFM, but I'm not even sure which docs to read or where they are. I've posted about my printing problem before (Win2k SP2 won't print to my Linux server printer), and even though I've had some suggestions, nothing has worked (after a solid week of trying combinations in smb.conf, I'm close to having to drop Linux and go to a complete

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

Hi there, ive got a nasty little problem with my Samba 2.2.1, running on a lfs system with kernel 2.2.18 and glibc 2.2.2 . At boottime i first load smbd with option -D and after that nmbd -D. But immediatly after that nmbd crashes without saying a word. Then i found something very interesting in the logs, here an excerpt of log.nmbd : --------------- snip --------------- [2001/10/10 14:04:07,

Hi everybody! I've problems with Samba and Win98 clients. Everytime I try to copy some files from a Win98 machine to the server, the progress bar freezes after a while and then after a minute or so I get an error message that the 'network ressource isn't available'. The server runs Samba version 2.0.7-3 and the OS is Debian Linux 2.2 r3 (Potato). And this is what error.log says:

I've got two Win2000 machines running Act2000 -- one prints fine...the other gets this error message in the log file: [2001/10/05 10:39:48, 0] rpc_server/srv_spoolss.c:api_spoolss_open_printer_ex(44) spoolss_io_q_open_printer_ex: unable to unmarshall SPOOL_Q_OPEN_PRINTER_EX.

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

Yes the machine I'm running this from is a member of the Domain. Mkpasswd works just great, mkgroup doesn't.

Hail SAMBA folks, I'm having a little difficulty trying to share files and directories that contain a colon in the filename. With a fairly simple configuration, everything works as expected sans the colon problem. On the client end (in my case, Windows 2000 SP2) I get somewhat unpredictable behaviour. In every case the file (or directory) name gets mangled in an unfriendly way. For
