I faced a problem which I cannot resolve and would be very obliged if you could point me to a right resource (I browsed a lot of forums and HOWTO's but still enable to find an answer) Configuration: Mandrake Linux 9.1 box running samba 2.2.7 controling my home network A Windows 2000 Pro laptop, a few other Win and Lin boxes Problem: my wife has an existing remote domain account on her

I already posted this question some time ago, but no-one came with a solution or even a comment. Please, I really need this! So, I repeat: Configuration: Server: Mandrake Linux 9.1 box running samba 2.2.7 controling my home network A Windows 2000 Pro laptop, a few other Win and Lin boxes Problem: my wife has an existing remote domain account on her win2000 laptop, I want her to be able to

Ok I probably found the first problem with my system: I was using a domain name identical to the workgroup already set on the clients. I changed it and anything seems to work better infact I can now join the domain and the machine account it's created... BUT when the system ask me to create a new machine user the system give me this error: "cannot create user account since trust

Greetz all, I am setting up a comain controller for a windows 2000 network and I think I have everything squared away. The problem that I am having right now is that all of the documentation/howtos that I have thusfar seen assume that a user wishes to implement roaming profiles in Samba. We want to preserve local profiles (local on the client.) I had seen a posting suggesting to set the

Hi all, I am sharing a directory by using SAMBA Ver. 2.2.3a on a HP-UX 11.11 for MS XP-Clients. Allthough conntecting works fine, I get the follwing log entry everytime a client connects: [2003/12/30 10:11:02, 0] smbd/chgpasswd.c:(939) check_plaintext_password: getsmbpwnam returned NULL smb.conf looks as follows: # Global parameters [global] coding system = client code page = 850 code page

Samba can not link to ldap Samba can not retrieve password information for users. I have got stuck with the problem outlined below. I have already spent 2 weeks trying to find information on the www and various mailing lists, without success. I would be happy if someone has an idea what I have to fix. I do not particularly need ldap, so if anybody can tell me how to seperate Samba from ldap it

Hello all, I've been dealing with this problem for years now and I am a bit fed up with it. Maybe some of you all can shed some light on the situation. I am having problems with my samba server setting the uid/gid/permissions incorrectly when a file is written to the server filesystem over cifs. I currently use the account remotemounter for mounting samba shares. Even with the

Hello all I need some help understanding what is failing with my Samba installation. I compiled Samba 2.0.6 on a Sparc Ultra-II Solaris 2.6, using GCC version 2.8.1. I have read in some of the docs that there may be some support for shadow passwords but could not find a definition regarding shadow in any of the compile scripts. The SMB and NMB processes are running as deamons. I am unable

I am using Samba 2.0.9 on S1 SuSE box and Samba 2.2.5 on S2 Suse box. S1 is acting as PDC for 98, NT clients. (logon script, shares from S1, and S2). Users's passwords are stored on S1, S2 uses security = server and password server = S1 options in smb.conf. I have upgraded both to Samba 2.2.8, but the logon script wants to connect to share from S2, it is prompted for a password. I have

I'm trying to establish a two way non-transitive trust between a W2003 A/D box and our SAMBA domain. We are using smbldap so we can log in on any of the linux boxes with the same passwd. Samba is version 3.0.33 on Redhat Enterprise. It's easy to create the trust on the Windows side with AD Domains and Trusts but on the Linux side I'm not sure if I need to put the machine account

Greetings, I'm here as my last resort, spent all day researching and still without an answer, though I saw many references to the same problem. I have a Solaris 8 U2 running Samba 2.2.5 compiled with one flag: --with-acl-support I've setup a machine account in /etc/passwd and /opt/sfw/private/smbpasswd according to the FAQ. Also tried the automagic way as well in the smb.conf. I also

I have Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8 acting as a PDC. I have written a script that checks to see if a user is already logged in on the PDC and if so, sends the user a message (via the SMB message stuff) telling them they need to log off. I run this script using "preexec close" under the netlogon share. So, the user authenticates against the PDC, but then gets a desktop that is mostly

I want to share my linux printer with my windows laptop. The printer is attached to box with redhat 7.2 and samba-2.2.1a-4. The laptop runs windows 98 and they are connected by a netgear RP114 router. I have been following DIAGNOSIS.txt. I had trouble with the test 2, "ping ACLIENT" and "ping BIGSERVER" until I added ACLIENT to /etc/hosts on BIGSERVER and added BIGSERVER to

Hier is my new smb.conf (this smb wil make your win2000 profiles to be stored in one directory, ''\\%L\Profiles''. Verry handy if you want one mandatory profile for all users. It wil also make connection to the right user home drive :). Have fun, but beware! Right now for some wierd reson i can only log in with root account and nobody else. # Samba config file created using SWAT

I've got a 2.2.3a-12 (Debian Stable) Samba server running on a small network with 98, 2000, and XP machines. The server is a domain controller and the computers are members of the domain. We are using login scripts to map the drives. I have one computer that is having a weird issue. When the user first logs on, you can go to My Computer and see the drive fine. Double-clicking on the drive

im having a problem... i cant seem to be able to clear the archive bit from any on the windows pcs on the network. When ever i try i get a message box say it is unable to. All users on the network are part of the same group and the files they work on our in that group. So how come they cant clear the archive bits? Can any one help Ive pasted the global parameters from the conf file: Cheers.

Hi everyone, I have a question about the logon script command. I've read and read and read the man page for smb.conf. In essence, I've duplicated the settings on the PDC how-to document to create a PDC with a logon script. However, when I log in, the scrips doesn't run. The only thing I don't have enabled, like the how-to, is roaming profiles. I'll include my smb.conf for
