I have had my users in LDAP for a while, but then found that my computer accounts for Win2K in still in passwd. My question is, what are the bare minume LDAP attribs that I need for them to contiune to work? But I don't think I am going to get that

Hello, I have a FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE box running the SAMBA 2.2.4_1 port. I have successfully added a printer driver to the unit, and when connecting from a Windows 2000 client, I get the driver successfully installed. I then converted the system to a PDC and added a test machine to it's domain. I can connect to the printer, it downloads drivers, but when I choose printer properties, I get:

it just says /usr/sbin/swat.new Aborted when i run it from the command line. nothing i can see in the logs... The swat binary from a 2 week old head now (with the rest of the installation from today's head) seems to work okay. what's going on with swat - did i screw up the build? Are others also having problems? (nothing in the marc) brad

I've experienced something like this, as well. Though I don't know if this will help, I would make sure that your NT username(s) are appropriately mapped to unix users. You may not be able to view the properties because the permissions/mapped user are mixed up. You can check this by doing a smbstatus - the user names listed as connected are the unix usernames that have been mapped to.

Greetings ... Just got bitten in the ass by not been able to join the domain with 2.2.7a Correct me if I am wrong, Jerry did give me a quick explaination. It has to do with usernames and what allowable characters in it for security. Now, I need to fix this, does anybody have a patch/fix or tell me where to look in the source to try and fix this. Thanks. Mailed Lee

Greetings ... Download and created an rpm with my changes that I will use, but why am I getting a "Failed dependencies: perl(Net::LDAP::LDIF) is needed by samba-3.0.0beta1-1lnx1" Should I need this, and I can't seem to find an rpm for this. I have tried to make a few, but they just kill over. Does anybody have rpms for this? Mailed Lee

Hi, I'm running (well trying really) samba on redhat 4.2. It installed automatically when I installed redhat, and everything appears to be running that needs to be on my linux machine. I am able to use samba locally (from my linux machine to my linux machine) but when I try to connect via my win95 machine, it doesn't find my linux box on the network. when I click on entire network, It

Greetings ... It seems I have really got myself confused ... I have a Win2K3 ADS domain, I have two FedoraCore systems, one with Samba 3.0.0 and the other with Samba 3.0.1. Both give me the same problem. If I try access the Samba shares from Win2K3 using the host number, I get prompted for a username and password, and no matter what I type in, I can't get in. If I use

I have been using Samba for years and am at my wits end with this problem. I have 3.0.0beta1-1 installed (actually, it's the latest Debian unstable package). I just upgraded it - it was working fine yesterday.

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

Hello, I've got a potentially major problem: I've recently changed from samba-TNG (vintage last February) which was working tolerably well in our environment barring a few locking problems and the ever increasing tdb files and memory footprint. As our number of clients has passed 150, the amount of memory used on our Solaris server became unsustainable and I took the decision to migrate
