A stupid question. With new printing system (spoolss) how people restrict access to the printers ? It was clear with the old system when each printer was in a separate share. I could assign a list of valid users for each printer share. TIA. -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC. (416) 535-0123 ext. 1352

I've noticed the list has pretty low answer:question ratio. I tend to think that many replies go directly to people who post the questions and those people never bother to share the answers with the community. I don't think this is fair so we may want to do something in this regard. We either need certain rules that will imply posting of summaries (as {SUN,LINUX}managers lists do), or the

Did anybody get to work password change enforcement with Samba PDC running LDAP ? It looks like it is "semi-working". I was able to enforce password change with USRMGR, but now it keeps asking me for the password change every time. I checked the pwdMustChange attribute and it is still set to 0 for some reason (hence checkbox for the password change enforcement in USRMGR is still checked

Hi all, I've compiled samba --with-quotas, turned on user and group quotas on ext3, assigned quotas, BUT it does not seem to be working. Windows client always shows all available space instead of showing the quota. Do I miss something ? P.S. I run Debian with 2.4.19 kernel patched for ext3 ACL support (from acl.bestbits.at). -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC.

Hi I have a couple of questions: 1. How do I exist from a domU console back to dom0 console (after issuing xm console [domU])? 2. How do I setup a dom0/domU in order to get a tty login?

Correct me if I'm wrong. With Samba 2.2.5, there is no way to get a group of users to manage printers so they be able to select/deselect duplex mode, tray, etc. Although I'm able to add a group with the Security tab and give them appropriate permissions, it doe not work from the user side - all the settings are still grayed out. P.S. I use LDAP backend if that matters. -- Yuri

Hi I want users to edit each other files, but not having the ownership changed at all I.e. user1 create a word doc, user2 can edit it, but the ownership is not changed to user2. force create mode force directory mode force user force group I know of these , but our share have tons of dirs with files that have different users and groups, 60+ developers working together. Are there any new

Greetings ... Sorry to be a little off topic, but I was wondering if anybody knows of a free lpd for Windows? I hate sharing printers using the M$ way. See all them computers on my network is just not pleasing, I like the way Novell does it. I was thinking of lpd, LPRng or CUPS with cygwin, but can't seem to find any binaries. Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I run Samba 2.2.5 with LDAP on RH Linux 7.2. The thing is, it only works correctly when nscd is running. Otherwise it can't getpwnam and fails with no uid error. Interesting thing, there is no such effect on Debian Linux. Weird... pdb_ldap.c: sys_user = sys_getpwnam(username); if (sys_user == NULL) { DEBUG

I did not mean sync between Kerberos and LDAP, I mean sync

Hi, I've set up Samba 2.2.6pre2 with ssl, pam, pam_smbpass and ldap on a Solaris 9 server. Everything works fine in unix. However I cannot change passwords from a Windoze client (win98) which has successfully logged in to the samba domain. It seems that the password chat asks for the LDAP password of the user, which would be ther user's old password. But according to the docs,
