I am new to working with samba. We have used samba for years connecting our windows systems to Unix systems services on OS390. Starting in and around November 2002 we can no longer connect. I have gone through the troubleshooting techniques. Our Samba system is up running, the mount points are correct and the config file tested out correctly. If any one is doing this could you please forward

As I understood from Samba documentation winbind can run without PAM installed; PAM is needed only if I need interactive login in the Unix box of NT domain users. Am I correct? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Everything you'll ever need on one web page from News and Sport to Email and Music Charts http://uk.my.yahoo.com

Hello, I tried to search the samba mailing list archives located at: http://us1.samba.org/search/smb-mail.shtml But whatever I look for, I get the answer: "No matches were found for" I think that there *must* be at least some archived mail messages containing the words "wins" or "browse". But I always get this message, so it seems that there is a problem with

I setup SAMBA to use winbind to authenticate of a WinNT PDC In the smb.conf I have a line template homedir = /home/winnt/%U which is file I also use the pam module to create directories for new users pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/sambaskel umask=0077 which is fine again. My problem is that I can't tell or how do I tell pam_mkhomedir to create the directories in /home/winnt/<user>

Okay, I've got it partially working. Will that module also do it from a non-*nix login? For instance, say the user will more than likely never log into that server from a telnet session. Where would I put the following line: session required /lib/security/pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel I'm running RedHat 7.3. In the /etc/pam.d directory, there are a bunch of different files.

I've been having problems building Samba on SuSE 8 (S390), and I've made some progress figuring out why. The error is "Redefinition of structure statfs" during compile of smbd/server.c. There are two statfs.h include files on my system: One in /usr/include/sys, and another in /usr/include/asm-s390, and they're different. The Samba include.h file includes the one from sys,

This is far from being elegant but it works... Target: assigning domain wide group permissions on members (client) of a Samba PDC. Steps: 1a edit the file pointed by username map add existing_Unix_group1 = "Domain Users" 2a log on a client with administrative privileges assign to a dir/disk permission to the "Domain Users" being carefull to select

Hi, we are investigating if Samba could help us to build a large (say very large) file server. We are thinking OS/390, 4 Tb, 20.000 users Are we being plain stupid, or has this been done before ? cu, Frank.

Hi sambafolks, I see a number of topics cropping up here repeatedly over the last few weeks: * Files > 4GB not supported This is confirmed and solved in 2.2.7a, but not in the current incarnation of smbfs (which is not part of samba, I know, but will get discussed here as a related topic) * desktop.ini weirdness in profiles I've seen this mentioned a few times with no sign of a

Hello, I am running Red Hat 7.3 Samba 2.26 and winbind. I have been able to join the domain and test all of the following with these commands. All works great. winbind -u winbind -g getent passwd getent group But when I set up a share to test with one domain user account it just presents me with a password dialog box and does not accept anything. It should not prompt me but if it does

I'm trying to set up a new fileshare, to replace an aging NT4 machine we've been using for far too long. I'd like to run Linux (RedHat 7.3) on the machine. Basically, I'm trying to create a fileshare "files" that people can transparently log in to from NT4 and Windows 2000 workstations. My boss has approved the use of Linux for the server, but only if I can make it

Worked like a charm. Thanks both to Tim and Josh for their assistance. It appears to be working beautifully!!!

Hi, Does anyone know how I can find out if an ibm serveraid 8k sas storage controller (zero channel RAID) is a real hardware RAID controller and supported in the standard CentOs kernel or is it a fake raid controller. I am trying to decide if I should get the serveraid controller or go get a 3ware controller. Regards, -- Tom Diehl tdiehl at rogueind.com Spamtrap address mtd123 at

Hye every one, My question will certainly seem stupid as I am quite a beginner in R. I would like to trace a curve which fits these two vectors: x<-c( 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10 ) y<-c( 20, 12, 8, 6, 5, 4.5, 4, 3.8) It seems to follow a non linear model. Could anyone help me because I could'nt find the answer I am looking for in the FAQs. In advance thank you for your time. G. Lefebvre

smartctl, hdparm, and sdparm all are valuable tools to obtain hard drive info. But, they don't seem to work, at least, on obtaining hard drive info from drives on a Dell PERC controller. Instead, I'm given basic PERC controller info, not drive info. Is there a tool to let me get the hard drive make/model/serial numbers from a hardware RAID setup? Thanks. Scott

Good evening, I don't know if this is the right place to ask... but I gotta start somewhere.. I have Samba setup as a PDC for my domain using the MySQL passdb backend for authentication. I would also like to use other components such as mod_auth_mysql for apache authentication. Is there a way that it can use one of the 2 password fields from the samba MySQL table (nt_pw or lm_pw) in
