I've looked around on the inet and docs in the tarball and I encountered a lot of docu's on setting up an ADS client but what I'm really interested in is if samba 3.0 can act as an ADS server. Is this possible? TIA Maxor -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hi When I try to pause a printer it spits out an error that I don't have permission to pause the printer. It is pretty weird because I'm the administrator. I've tried to add the write list=ntadmin option but that doesn't work. Does anyone have a clue? TIA Maxor -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hello I'm running the samba-3.0 alpha18 (I know it's alpha) but I think this has something to do with my configuration (see below). When I try to join my domain from a computer that has never been on the domain before it gives an error about unprivileged user. I use root/sauron as the admin users with the correct passwords.

I posted last week regarding a bug in the way that smb was re-reading our config files every 60 seconds even though the files were not changing. As a result we had 396 smbd processes trying to read three files at the same moment with the obvious load average. The reason that all the smbd's were running at the same moment is because the smbd's read the config files every 60 seconds

Hi, I am compiling Xen from source on FC9. On booting the Xen dom0 kernel it gives the following error: Volume group "VolGroup00" not found and ultimately the error that switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory So my question is that why it fails to detect logical volumes?

Hello guys, I have been running a server (running RH 7.3) with WINS support for quite some time and it works well. I am seeing that once Windows clients (Windows XP) are connected to the server, the wins.dat in the server gets updated where the clients IP etc being added. Even the server's IP has been changed (for example, the machine is moved and connected to a different network with

Attached please find unified diffs against Samba 2.0.6. I'm hoping that others will find it useful and that it may even find its way into Samba 2.0.7 This patch does two things: - Modifies the handling of the 'netbios name' parameter so that standard_sub_basic() is run on its value when the 'netbios name' parameter is processed. This has to be done this way because

Quick question for the Samba team, Just wondering if there is a reason that a %L substitution changes the WHOLE string after the substitution to lowercase (in standard_sub_basic)? This was causing me a big headache as I was using a %G later in the string, and this was being translated into a %g... Here's the relevant section of code from lib/substitute.c: case 'L' :

In the documentation the "oplocks = yes" option is give in an example, as the default for this parameter. However, I needed to turn oplocks off, and so assumed that the command "oplocks = no" would work. It doesn't, instead I found that "oplocks = false" does. There needs to be some boolean fixing done, or at least documentation should reflect this strangeness.

Hello all, I've got a strange problem with Samba 2.2.4. I'm able to associate print drivers to printers (raw queue in cups). My clients are able to see that the drivers belong to the printers, and they download them, but as soon as the server reboots, I lose my driver associations and I need to once again specify a driver on the windows end. The Print server was an upgrade from Samba
