All, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction in obtaining a solution to the the following; I want to have the log in script map not only their home directory, but also the group folders as well. For instance, I would have a share with valid users=@usergroup and would want the script to map the directory based on this criteria. Would I have to have a log on script for each

All, I have the following in my smb.comf for printing commands... # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to # specifically define each individual printer [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no print ok = yes print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -P%p lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j

Hello all. I have a question about setting up samba to serve windows printing. I have been trying to research this but keep coming up with conflicting howto's. Can someone give me directions to an up-to-date print howto? It would be greatly appreciated as I am stuck on this.

We are planning to replace a quite big domain running W2K with Samba ( at the very least, the DC ). Though i'd love to have the extra security capabilities of W2K ( Kerberos ) as a DC, Samba/NT4 as PDC/BDC with ldapsam will more than suffice for now. The show-stopper right now is this: we need to be able to assign "real" Full Control permissions: a user who has "Full

All, The powers that be are going to buy a win2k server that will have a Compaq TL891DLX tape library. I have been trying to get one for my samba box as well. My question is can I back up the samba box to the win2k tape library? I know that you would have to mount the tape library on the linux/samba box, could this be done through samba? IF anyone needs more info, please let me know. Thanks for

Can the "tar" function in SMBCLIENT be used to successfully backup and restore a remote WNT 4 sp3 system disk? I'm guessing no, because: 1. active registry files, so restored disk may not be bootable 2. loss of ACLs and other "extra" file properties in tar format Anybody tried it? This is for machines with SCSI adapters, so even if we have to replace the system disk

Ok, I'm stumped. I've got what appear to be 5 identical WNT workstation 4 sp3 machines. All have been configured to run off the primary domain controller (Samba 1.9.19). On one of these ONLY the domain logins generates a single popup window which says: Incorrect password or unknown username for \\machinename\C$ and presents them with a username/password dialog box. The users can

I've got a RH9 box with samba 3.0.0 using winbind and pam for windows client and user authentication to a 2003 AD DC. This morning I started having problems with a few shares that then cascaded into a larger issue of being able to authenticate any client to the machine. I configured Kerberos with my realm information and have added the machine to the domain several times and have been

Hi, I'm trying to make a linux file server that is browseable from a windows 2000 domain, via authentication from a windows 2000 server. Ultimately, I want to be able to control permissions on the samba shares using Windows 2000 Server Manager. Something like: Windows XP(client) <-> Samba(file server) <-> [authenticates through] Windows 2000 server So far, I CAN browse the

Hello People, I do hope that this is not a really old problem that everyone is totally sick of hearing; it is a pain in the neck problem for me right now. I am just a Samba user. Help will be much appreciated 8-) I have been using Mandriva 2007 Linux and have installed Mandriva 2008; Samba has stopped working as described below. What is wrong? * The hardware is a local LAN controlled by an

Dear all, This is now for weeks that I try to get samba working again. This is urgent as all users profiles are on this server. Everything was working well, until we got Welchia Virus. We removed the virus, and updated our servers to SP3 + Windows2000-KB823980-x86-ENU.exe patch. I removed the SP and the Patch, but I'm still unable to correctly join the domain. I upgraded to Samba 3.0.1

Hi, I've just updated (using yum under fedora 5) to the latest version of samba and am now encountering a major problem with samba. Whenever I attempt to access shares (don't have printers or other such non disk shares) the access fails (after prompting for password, and performing some level of authentication, it notes if no password is entered that Anonymous login successful).

I just installed Icecast2 and the installation was a sucess. However, when I go to startup Icecast.

Hi there - apologies for the long-ish mail! I recently performed a SuSE online update to my system, and since then Samba has refused to work properly. After the update, nmbd produces the infamous message: Aug 29 19:26:39 linuxserver nmbd[7208]: [2003/08/29 19:26:39, 0] nmbd/nmbd_responserecordsdb.c:find_response_record(235) Aug 29 19:26:39 linuxserver nmbd[7208]: find_response_record:

Hello Rowland. Thanks for answering. The linux server is already in the AD domain and resolving Ad users as normal. To map the linux server share using AD users I use the following command: net use \\linuxserver\share /U:AD_user and it works perfectly. But I would like to use the same command for users who are in /etc/passwd, like this: net use \\linuxserver\share /U:linuxserver_user and so

Hi, I installed Samba on the only linux server that we have on our network. On the Linux server, I was able to mount various shared directories from various windows machines ( we use windows 2000 ) So, seeing windows files on linux is not a problem. We also wanted to go the other way( seeing linux files on windows ) I searched on google but to no avail. I set the lmhosts file and still nothing

I have installed RedHat Linux 7.2 and tried to get Samba working. I have tried a lot, but I keep bouncing the fact that on the linuxserver it is not possible to lookup itself using: nmblookup linuxserver. All other machines in the network are ok. I can find them through the nmblookup easy. Broadcast is ok, subnet mask brought back to 255.255.255.0, in fact it seems that all is in place as I have
