similar to: Act! database on a Samba server

I installed CentOS on my home-server with 2 IDE 160GB MAXTOR HDD / RAID-1, LVM and ext3 partitions. Previous OS on this machine was FC2. I often "play" with LVM and, sometimes, have to extand or reduce some volumes size. I was surprised to see that resize2fs isn''t included anymore ! The replacing tool is ext2online but this one seems to only be able to grow a filesystem (not

Hi, I'm trying to build a PDC and BDC to elimenate Windows NT on a network and have load balancing and fault tolerence for users. I've compiled samba 2.2.4 on two servers, working with openldap 2.0.23 with a master and a slave. Replication on LDAP servers works fine. I've set up a domain controller and wanted to set the other server as BDC in case the PDC goes down. Each time i put

Hi! Question from the novice. I have to permanently increase number of opened files ( ulimit -n 16384 and ulimit -Hn 16384) for some application. I did custom kernel based on https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide/s1-custom-kernel-modularized.html and application documentation ( written for RH 9), no error during all makes but I have panic during the

Hi, i've compiled samba 2.2.4 on a Redhat 7.1 machine, working with openldap 2.0.23. I also downloaded smbldap-tools from IDEALX which i fixed myself to fit my needs. Everything work very fine when running the scripts in shell mode... but! In smb.conf : ============= add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -w %u This line don't work and it should, because when running

This is my first post to this mailing list, although I have been reading it for a while. Please forgive the length of my message. Also, great work! I'm trying to get Centos-3 running on an ASUS SK8V Opteron motherboard in a way that is useful for me. I've had some success, but now I'm stuck on a problem with the SATA driver. Okay, so I got it up on the network by replacing sk98lin

Dear samba guru, I have a little bug i can't solve. It is pretty misterious to me, must be a problem how samba execute the add user script. Now here is the situation. I've compiled samba 2.2.4 with ldap 2.0.23 to run as PDC with win2k workstations. Everything works as expected except the add user script to add workstation automaticly to the domain. add user script =

We've encountered a problem with getting a newly installed Samba based machine to join the domain. Here's the command line and error response: [root@chain samba]# smbpasswd -j COLUMBIA -r cmc-bkup -U murphyn Password: error creating domain user: NT_STATUS_INVALID_DOMAIN_ROLE Unable to join domain COLUMBIA. [root@chain samba]# Installation is a RedHat 7.2 (from KRUD) box

I am currently running Samba 2.2.4 on a RH 7.1 box acting as a PDC with two Win2k test clients attaching to it. Users authenticate to the PDC via an LDAP server running on the PDC and that works ok. I can also join the domain with no problems. What I am trying to accomplish is to have a domain user or better yet a group of domain users, be able to log into the win2k box and have the linux

I just ran across this myself. I guess I dont understand why there needs to be machine names in /etc/passwd if you are storing everything in LDAP. Am I missing a configuration option here? Can one of you samba geniuses point me in the right direction please? Thank you! >I have exactly the same bug. Your original email was dated 24 May 2002 >so I can safely assume that either you

I've installed the rpm's and everything seems to be set up fine. I've been through many documents (even the one on redhat that says i must change localhost to 127.0.0.1 in one of the config files (/etc/xinetd.d/swat). When i direct mozilla to http://localhost:901 I get, "The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:901 I think maybe that something is not

It's me again, with the solution to my problems. To get a working BDC, you have to kill samba, delete your secrets.tdb, create a MACHINE.SID and then restart samba. You will have to do this on the PDC and the BDC to have the same SID the the secrets.tdb file. Then machine account are valid even if you move your PDC, or you add a 2nd BDC, as long as you create the MACHINE.SID file before the

I have ACL's enabled and am getting a new error, in the Samba log (V 3.0.1Pre1, when attempting to set permissions on a file through Win2000: get_domain_user_groups: primary gid of user [terry] is not a Domain group ! get_domain_user_groups: You should fix it, NT doesn't like that Do I need to create a group on the windows(2000) side?

I looked in the release notes, but maybe I missed it. Is it not possible to build a kernel from CentOS 4.3 (using 2.6.9-34.0.1) with HIGHMEM support turned off? This is for a machine with 512mb. When I try to build the kernel, I get _etext undefined symbol on line 100 of pageattr.c in arch/i386/mm. Linus

OK- A dumb question. Will a "generic"(kernel.org) kernel work with Centos 4? My reason for asking- I'm needing to upgrade from RH9, and would rather go ahead and go with 4 for the 2.6 kernel, but I need a patched kernel (Win4Lin), and I'm not sure they will offer a prepatched version (though they probably will for EL4).

On the system where I'm doing the install, I used dd to read the entire DVD and also copied every .rpm to /dev/null and didn't get any I/O errors. What next?

Cutting straight to the chase: When, if ever, does the installer offer an option to upgrade an existing installation, rather than wanting to reformat the disks? More details than you may want: I recently acquired a new PC chassis, with no operating system but with a Serial-ATA disk (which I was not expecting when I ordered it). I set the BIOS for legacy IDE mode and installed RedHat 9, then

hi ! sorry for posting this question, i think it is an easy one, but i cannot get the answer myself. i am using samba-2.2.3a + ldap running on a debian system with w2k-clients. now the problem is: everytime i log into my w2k-client, i get something like "your password expires today! would you like to change it ??" well, i do not really want to change my password everytime i log in,

Sorry for the OT post, just looking for a pointer from somebody who's been there and done that. I'm looking to write a program that will allow for managing documents that have been encrypted with AES. I want the program to be as cross-platform as possible, so at the least it needs to run in Win2K/WinXP and in linux X-windows (X.org). Now, I used to write in Java a few years ago, so
