similar to: windows XP native printer driver upload

Hi, I'm a newbie at samba (I just configured the samba server on my Linux box). I was wondering if, along with the printer and disk space, I could even share the CD Writer on the linux box as a device which my "windows" friends could map and burn CDs on. any comments would be of great help thanks deepak. -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

I am new to CUPS, after working for 4 days to get printing from WinNT to Mandrake 9.0, I give up. Here is the problem: the /etc/samba/smb.conf is setup with [printers] and [print$]. I copy the postscript drivers from adobe. I then tried to export a printer to samba with the following command cupsaddsmb -v -U dwoody canon It did all of the commands successfully except for the last one. which

Hi Everybody, maybe we are just too stupid, but for me it seems that there is some problem with holding passwords completely sync between *NIX-world and WIN-world when I use LDAP & Samba. If a user changes a password under Windows, with "passwd chat" the *NIX-Password (attribute: userPassword) can be changend very well besides the both Samba-LDAP-attributes lmPassword and

Hi, I am new to samba server, I install it sucessfully and the smb server also work well. Now, I try to implement the ACL with similar to the ACL in windos 2000 server. However, I failed to implement it until file level, can someone guide me to implement me. regards, cksoo

Hello all I recently recompiled samba 2.2.5 with LDAP, SSL and libsmbclient as additional configure options. I used the base 2.2.5-2mdk source package (to the uninitiated, it's a Mandrake package). LDAP works fine (as it had before), haven't really tested SSL, but here's the kicker: I can't find libsmbclient anywhere - although I'm not really sure what I'm looking for

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, everyone - I've been trying for two weeks now to get my print server operational under Samba. After walking through the howtos and tweaking the configs per spec, it just ain't working. Printing from a client machine sends, and then nothing happens. No error messages or anything similar. Printing from the server works fine, but

Hi All, Can anybody point me to a site where there is good up to date documentation on how to use Win2000 authentication for a samba server? Thanks, Craig

Should I be required to add the machine to my passwd file even if I am using LDAP when joining a W2K domain domain? The only way I can get a machine to join my Samba PDC is via the following commands. # /usr/sbin/useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c "asa" -s /bin/false asa$ # smbpasswd -a -m asa I thought that using ldapsam would lookup all machine information from LDAP without having to

I'm looking for a way to not have to worry about machine accounts on the server. My organization is looking to move thousands of machines and many locations to XP and, if possible, we'd like to avoid the headache of managing more system and samba accounts. Basically, I'd like a way to say "I don't care who joins my domain, just do whatever is necessary to make them think they

Hi, I have a box running Mandrake 8.2 and samba 2.2.4 on an NT domain. smbpasswd -j says it joins the domain ok, I use the included sys-auth-windbind file for pam, and the winbind entries are in nsswitch.conf. Everything appears to be running, but when I try wbinfo -u I get "Error looking up domain users". getent passwd only return the linux accounts. Yet wbinfo -t returns

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I'm on the way to implement samba with ldap on five servers (each owns a different nt-domain) and a master server which maintains the central user database which gets replicated to all the other servers. Now I have just one more problem, namely homedirs. I want every user to have a homedir to store for example his profile. This has to

If this question has been asked and answered, I am sorry but I searched and could not find it. Is it possible to have a samba PDC on the same server as a winbindd pointing to that samba PDC. The reason I want to do this is that I want the capability winbindd provides for a single sign on for things UNIX and the samba PDC for all things Windows. I don't want to have to run two boxes (if I

Hi, I've just install samba 2.2 with ldap support, it is working just fine. I've create some samba users using smbpasswd and they are inserted into the ldap directory. But, I was wondering if it was possible to delegate the full authentification process to ldap. That's to say completely remove any information from /etc/passwd? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- HTML

Hello, I have a fresh install of Mandrake 8.2 which comes with Samba 2.2.3a. I wish to upgrade to Samba 2.2.5, however, I cannot find the correct RPM to do so. Any help here is greatly appreciated. Thank you. - Robert Dempsey

Hi, I have setup /etc/pam.d/system-auth as below. But when I login to the Linux Box from KDE3, I get a prompt saying I don't have write access to the HOME. Then got kicked out.
