1) Have you applied the registry patch to the XP machine? 2) Check samba.org as i'm not sure which version first started supporting XP, 2.2.3a may be borderline.

Sorry about the missing

A good day to you all. i dont seemt to be having any luck joining Windows XP machines into my domain. This i find quite peculiar, since i have had no problems with win98, winnt, or win2k machines. The Windows XP machine is able to see the domain, and reports that it has joined the domain after i enter the domain admin account and password. But after the reboot, i can't seem to log on

Hi, we updated our samba 2.2.3a to 2.2.5 because of several printing problems. Now our Clients (win 2k & xp) can't write to their profiles share (the windows error-message was: "this file is used by another process", but there weren't any other processes from this user). In the samba logfile we can't see any write-attempt from the client. Our smb.conf: [global]

hello all. I have a dual boot laptop running XP and RH3. I tried to install wine but because my XP is on NTFS I could not link to that partition. So, I have burned all my personal files to CD and am wondering what to do next: 1) I suppose I could install another windows operating system like 98. Drawback is that when I do use Windows, XP tends to handle the plug and play features better (like

Hi all. I hope someone here can help me with a bit of trouble I seem to be having with Samba and Windows 2000. Here's the deal: We are attempting to setup a Red Hat 7.3 machine (SYMPHONY2) running Samba 2.2.3a to act as a File Server and PDC for a number of Windows 2000 workstations. I have followed the instructions from http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html but

I've just been trying to get my Samba 3.0.0-2 build to work with CUPS. The rpm I downloaded from the Samba site was not compiled with CUPS library support. Which is why I am assuming that having added printing = cups in my conf file things are not working. If I use the source rpm can I force the build to include CUPS library support ? Or do I have to build from scratch? thanks Alan

Hullo All, Just a simple question... I planning have an HPUX Server with SaMBa 2.2.3a and Winbind running to allow WinNT users to login in the server. As far as I know, when WinNT is down, Winbind doesn't authenticate the users. OK, is there any chance to Winbind store users in a cache, or something like that? Thanks ______________ Demerson Zounar Analista de Suporte

We upgraded from 2.2.3a to 2.2.4 on a SuSE 7.2 server. We compiled Samba just default. The new version seems to work ok with the exception of printer administration. Printer admins are not able to see the properties of the printers (right click on printer gives on error). Our workstations are W2k SP2. But users that are not printer admin are able to see the properties of a printer, but they

I have setup my Samba server as a WINS server using the wins support = yes parameter. My remote network can see the Samba server at our head office fine. I have also setup the WINS setting on my PC (W2K Pro box) to point to the IP address of my Samba server. When I do a nmblookup -R -U <IP address of WINS server> <name of my PC> on my Samba server I get this reponse; querying pc1

Hi All, very new to the linux thing. I have tried our local linux list but no luck. I have setup Samba on the box which is running Rh7.3 with Samba 2.2.3a-6 (server/common & client) I got a tut from IBMs site on how to setup a pdc with samba and redhat. I followed the tut step for step but still when I want to login on wind98 onto the box I get a message that the pdc is not found. When I

We want to copy files with the group in the admin list of the [homes] share. The problem is that the copied files then are owned by root. I know this is normal unix behavior. However we want the copied files to be owned by the user of the homeshare. I read the samba howto section "Users Cannot Write to a Public Share". Although I want to set the owner on the home shares and not on a

Hi, we still have some trouble running a MS Access-database on Samba. We now tried it with v.2.2.6 on RH 7.3 but still we either get no acces on the database simultanously or we run in problems with updating the database. The problem is that we make some changes on one of the clients but the changes are not visible to the other clients until they shut down the database and reopen it. We

Hello! A good day to you all. i'm trying to set up samba(2.2.3a, right out of the rh7.3 cds) as a PDC. i've already read through the Samba-howto collection, and am confident that i've put in all the necessary samba options. /etc/samba/smb.conf: [global] netbios name = pdc1 workgroup = testing security = user domain logon = yes domain master = yes local master = yes domain admin

We have upgraded from Samba 2.2.7a to 2.2.8a. We have samba running our our two UNIX file servers, one is Solaris 8 and the other RedHat Linux 7.3. Samba was compiled as follows: configure --prefix=/opt/samba --with-acl-support --with-quotas Right now it doesn't looks like changing file/folder permissions are working from W2K. When we right click on a file/folder and go to the

I want to setup a linux box with samba as a file and print server for a LAN of 20 NT 4.0 SP3 workstations. I want the home direcotories to be on the server the clients to have roaming profiles. For this, do I have to make the linux box a domain controller? I want to avoid it if I can, because the domain control code in not on the production releases. I don't want to setup an NT server either.

Hello, I am currently integrating 20 workstations and 5 Servers (all Dell Products) running Red Hat 7.2 (2.4.7-10) into a Windows 2000 / NT Enterprise network of about 2,000 users. I have been using a Samba server (version 2.2.1) with "security=domain" so that any user with a W2K domain logon can access the Samba file server. However, I want to move into full integration and set up all

Hi there I just installed the above mentioned system and try to print from a W2k box to the Samba box but nothing happens. There's no problem in printing from the RH box or via Webmin but when I try to print from the W2k box nothing happens. I don't get an error or anything. I installed the printer by the help of the add printer tool in RH, and simply go to the Printer--->Add

can someone please tell me why everyone else can connect to my samba server but me? I mean I even went as far as installing a new OS ("down-graded" back to win2k). I really need help trying to figure out why. If someone can help me in figuring that out, please let me know. And by the way...I already tried the router thing....same issue. So the router doesnt matter because I disabled the
