force user (S) This specifies a UNIX user name that will be assigned as the default user for all users connecting to this service. This is useful for sharing files. You should also use it carefully as using it incorrectly can cause security problems. This user name only gets used once a connection is established. Thus clients still need to connect as a valid user and supply a valid password. Once

I'm running version: 2.0.7 on RH 7.0 on a small LAN at home with Win98, WinME and Win2K computers. Samba seems to be working well, except that my nmbd.logs are filled with the following messages: [2002/07/23 05:14:19, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:find_domain_master_name_query_fail(360) find_domain_master_name_query_fail: Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name SWAMP<1b> for

I just want a simple, globally accessible directory for anyone on my LAN. I don't care who they are, who they're logged in as on their windows machine, I don't care about security (it's my own private LAN!!!). Why is this so difficult to do? I've looked through the archives (which by the way, could someone spend a few minutes and put a SEARCH feature there. Following threads

Hi, I'm trying to set up one of my users to be a domain admin. I have unix/ldap group called "domainadm" with "user1" a member of the group. When I run "net groupmap list" I get the following: Domain Admins (S-1-5-21-186220259-3826000728-3192352269-7033) -> domainadm But when I go to log in to the domain with "user1" on a winxp machine, the

I've some queries on Samba, hope that someone in the mailing list can help me :) 1) I've Samba PDC with W2k workstation (w2kwks). When I login into w2kwks, it created a folder with my username in C:\Documents and Settings directory (which I think is the roaming profile directory?) 2) When I configure Outlook 2000 on the w2kwks (for imap), it automatically create a Personal Folder in

Dovecot is installed on the hosted FC1 server I have, it was working fine until yesterday when they had to bounce the server. I can login fine from Outlook or connect telnet <hostname> 110. But even though I can see sendmail has received mail into my %h/.maildir (via webmail's user mail facility) when I log into dovecot via Outlook it does not retrieve any of it. I tried from W2K

Hi ! I'm runing a linux redhat 7.2 box with samba 2.2.4. I've downloaded the samba source in order to install it with the needed compilation options (--with-smbwrapper --with-automount --with-smbmount --with-pam ...). Samba is now up and running but I would like to build an rpm with this compiled version. Any idea of how to transform this samba compiled version to a rpm package ?

Hi. Is there an easy way (analogous to the $^O variable in perl) to find out what operating system R is currently using? Thanks.

I am trying to make my Samba server act as a domain controller, but I can't join the domain. When I go into Windows 2k and I right click the computer, the properties button, and try to make it a part of the domain, it asks me for a user account, and a password. I am not sure what user account to type in here. What user account do I type in? Below is my smb.conf file. I followed the howto from

Hello, I am trying to run exim 4.68 and dovecot 1.0.13 on Solaris 10 x86 5/08 using dovecot lda and sieve with virtual users and domains, tls and ssl.

Hi, I have samba installed on my Linux system (Red Hat 7.2), and Windows 98 on another PC as a Samba client. Samba works great if PlainTextPassword is enabled.

I believe I've done everything in order to make encrypt passwd working: * I converted /etc/passwd to

I need help understanding what is happening and trouble shooting. I have two servers running Samba 2.3.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both. I have two shares on the member server and as far as I can tell they are identical. [Projects] works as expected but [Windows] always asks

I'd like to rsync a series of files at arbitrary points in a tree in one connection and am struggling to figure out how to do this. rsync seems AFAICS to have a fundamental src_file dst_file model, optionally with recursion. The best I could come up with was recursing plus multiple --include with a final --exclude "*". The idea is to avoid multiple calls to rsync and thus

Hi... With samba4 I sometimes feel like a bloody beginner even I use samba since ages. Miracle of the day: Users connecting using samba4 cannot write to group writeable folders even they should be able to. I upgraded one 3.6 fileserver to 4.2.3. PDC is always a samba 4.2.3 instance. I am using samba4 in classic PDC mode for a couple of reasons. On my fileserver I have a folder called
