similar to: Migration to TNG

Hi, I posted this problem before in more detail (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=104756899022766&w=2) but received no response. At the current state of Smaba 3.0 and Samba-TNG these two seem to be incomaptible. Samba 3.0 can't join a TNG controlled domain. I think this should affect a lot of installations as TNG as a controller and "stable" as file/printserver seem

Dear all, This is an embedded firmware engineer Honey from China, and I am studying the samba and samba-tng, because the size of samba is too large to my development. I want to port the samba-tng to embedded ARM Linux system, use the kernel version is 2.6.35, but I found the samba-tng can't be compiled by cross compiler(arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc). And I can't

Hello, We recently undertook to migrate our domain from samba-TNG to samba-2.2.2. However, it did not go smoothly. One of the main reasons is that even if you start 2.2.2 with the domain SID from the TNG installation, you find that the users' RIDs are different. This is because samba-TNG calculates the RID from the unix UID using the formula UID*4 + 1000 where as 2.2.2 uses UID*2 +1000. At

OK: First, please respond to me directly, as I'm not on the TNG list. Here's the situation: I will be setting up a "computer lab" for 30-40 PC's with various users (students). Here are my needs: 1) One Touch (point) User administration (the simpler the better) 2) Simplest set of LINUX SW possible 3) NO NT PDC 4) All clients are W2K. 5) Want

Would like to know if it is possible to switch to the latest production release of samba (2.2.3a) from samba-tng 2.6alpha and maintain the same configuration, password, mapping files, security identifiers, etc as tng. If not how would I convert my setup from tng to main with minimal effort? thank you __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Got something to say? Say

Dear list I haven't been able to track down the cause of the following problems and hope someone can shed some light... We have been running samba-tng successfully on our school FreeBSD 4.5RELENG server for 18 months or so, but now need the facility of downloadable printer drivers for our W2k clients. I have installed samba 2.2.7a alongside our running samba-tng (2.6.1cvs) in a dual head

Hi all, I'm new to Linux and Samba. I have two seperate hard drives, one has w2k and the other Red Hat Linux 7.3. Yessterday I struggeled to make the SWAT work. Then I realized that now I need to learn how to use SWAT. Before I invest time in learning how to use SWAT, my question is if I using w2k, can I access the hard drive that Linux is on and vice versa. Theis question came to my

Hello, I have inherited a samba-tng PDC (without ldap) that I am to upgrade to samba 3. My first attempt failed miserably. I copied over the smbpasswd and the domain SID, users were able to log in, but most were not able to load their profiles. I think I have to copy over machine IDs, but I'm not sure how to proceed. The migration section of the the howto doesn't seem to apply to

Just a small question before I dare to install Samba TNG: Is there any functionality in the latest Samba TNG (I think 0.3.2) which is *not* implemented in Samba 3.0?

Hello, i have a red hat 7.2 system and set the environment variable CC='kgcc'. I have git the standard kernel: [root@linux-test source]# rpm -qf /usr/include/asm/statfs.h kernel-headers-2.4.7-10 But when compiling the tng-source i get the following error: Using FLAGS -O -Iinclude -I./include -I./ubiqx -I./smbwrapper -I./lib -DLOGFILEBASE="/ usr/local/samba/var"

Hello all: I just recieved Windows 2000 Professional Final Release. I am currently running Samba in order to serve my Windows 95 & Windows 98 Machines. From my understanding, I needed to get something called TNG. I read instructions on CVS and it downloaded TNG onto my computer. Then I went on and did "./configure", "./make", and am about to do "./make

Hi, is there a HOWTO about migrating from Samba TNG to Samba 2.2? I have problems with the user profiles on the Windows client machines, they are recreated on login on the new Samba (2.2.5) machine. I copied the SID (with smbpasswd), /etc/passwd and smbpasswd to the new machine, and everything works fine, except for the user profiles. Currently we are not using server-saved profile, but we will

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites 1) i fixed a problem with nmbd's GETDC response, it is responding better but still not perfectly (and 2.0.x and cvs main need to be fixed, as well) as there exists no explanation for the correct response to locate a Domain Controller using GETDC. the upshot of fixing this is that joining an nt workstation to a TNG domain is now _extremely_

Hi, well, I guess that this is something that I need to plan to do :-). I'm developing a plan for a group of updated docs for TNG (and Samba, compared to TNG). Quickly, you're asking for 1) A bulleted list? 2) A Kvivio flowchart? 3) Some other comparison? Could you tell me in general terms: do you need to "sell" TNG to the boss or something? I can't give it to you now.

Hi, (sorry for my english I'm a telecomunications student from spain) I'm building a PDC with samba from a ldapbackend which was created without samba attributes...it's a very big database...does someone know how can I add the samba attributes to all users..? and what attributes I have to add so that the pdc have the next characteristics: - backend openldap(replica-server,it's

Hello, first of all, this is a message corresponding to a thread named similar in tng-users mailinglist (tng-users@samba-tng.org). I am successfully running a samba-tng server at work for quite a year now but now I want to get to the "official" version (2.2.x) again for increased stability, namely in file locking issues. The samba-tng server is holding about 35 users along with their

Hello. I'm trying to implement a single-sign-on system with MIT-Kerberos and OpenLDAP. These two are currently working pretty well, but now I'm trying to add samba to this system. I've found a lot of tutorials about samba PDC with LDAP backend, but this is of course not quite what I want. My passwords are stored in the kerberos database and userdata is stored in LDAP. Is there a way to

Hello, I'd like to see if I can get some clarification on what is the preferred method of starting the Samba daemons (note that we are using Solaris, not Linux). This is something that I'm not able to find any explanation of in any of the Samba 3 documentation that I've looked at so far. In Samba 2 I would have the Samba daemons started up by the following in my /etc/inetd.conf:

Hi I wonder if you can help me. I'm currently studying Networking as a college course and one of the challenges we have been set is to research, then put into practice the mapping of a linux server onto a Windows NT server. I'll be honest with you, I'm very new to all this so I hope I explain this correctly. I have successfully created my own smb.conf file, usernames, areas and a

I've followed the instructions in the DUAL-SAMBA-HOWTO to try to install a Dual Samba system. I'm running Redhat 7.0 (awaiting my 7.3 in the post). I've installed it, added the user `CSMSRV-HEAD$' to both linux and also, using 'samedit' to TNG. This is the name of my HEAD samba server running. I've changed the security = share, and the server works on the network.
