Hello, I wondered how domain groups are handled with Samba (2.2.5): I set up a Samba DC and have serveral XP clients. On the Samba machine I greated a group named "ntadmins" and put the following line in my smb.conf: domain admin group = @ntadmins On of my domain admins is user "wojtek" which has the primary group "user" but is also memeber of the

Hi, I have been trying to use samba for a while as a way to have an identical desktop/startmenu/profile/favourites/etc on multiple PCs. Samba is setup as the PDC and I can join the domain and login. The problems started firstly when I wanted to have some sort of caching and also logon concurrently to different pcs with the same user. The main problem being that whichever computer I log off

Hi all, I can add my W2K machines to the Samba 3.0.5pre1 with no problems, but I can not add my XP machines. Existing XP machines work fine, but when I try to add new XP machine it does not work.

Hello, I need some understanding about when being as user in a domain group and log on to a windows machine as user that belongs to this group having administrative rights.

Hi, I would like to ask, will the roaming profile directory in C:\Documents and Settings\username, will be deleted once the user logs out? Mine isn't. I'm worried that, for a thousand users, one workstation would have a thousand directories? I believe those are not local profiles, since it is saved into the server every time the user logs out.

Hi, I would like to know, what's the importance of sid and rid, for: 1) a win2k to samba migration, with roaming profiles 2) brand new domain on samba, with roaming profiles If rid and sid need to be migrated to a samba+ldap how do I do it? Another thing is, I've read in ldap-smb-HEAD-howto.html that the builtin accounts are implemented internally in the samba server. Does this mean I

Hi, I've a problem in running configure for samba 2.2.5. I'm using redhat 7.3, with ACL support from http://acl.bestbits.at/. I've tested that the ACL is working on the filesystem, and samba can find it too. Here's the error: checking if large file support can be enabled... yes checking whether to support ACLs... checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes checking for ACL

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).

Hello, Have wrestled this one for about a week, now, getting frustrated ;-) Running samba as PDC for my domain (cf. smb.conf further down) When logging in on my 2K Pro machine, I first get a "can't find roaming profile, attempting local profile"-error, but logon using my user's smb account accepts only the correct password and so the identification part works well. Next,

I've been going over a problem and haven't been able to resolve it. I think I've narrowed the problem down to Samba, but I could use some advice on this. ? A few weeks ago I installed a print and fax server for a client. ?I used an old PII system with 64 MB RAM, SUSE Pro 9.1, configured to use Samba and HylaFAX. ?There are 8 client workstations running Window 98 SE (most of the

Hello, i have some problems migrating a Windows 2000 PDC to a Debian GNU/Linux Samba Server, i want to migrate it to a LDAP backend.. but as i'm kind of newbie with ldap and samba migration stuff, i preffered to migrate it to tdbsam first and try it for a while, if everything works fine, then switch to a ldap backend.

I am having nearly the EXACT same problem as http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2003-December/033315.html I have samba 3.0.1-1 rpms and fedora core 1. Samba is set as a WINS server, which the win2k machines, who use DHCP from router, are pointed to by the WINS server address specified in router(each of the win2k machines, via ipconfig /all reveal they do in fact use the wins server).

When doing simple: net rpc file -Untadmin With ntadmin being a user belonging to properly groupmapped domain admins, (with rid 512), including cases with ntadmin being rid=500 itself, I always get: [2010/06/30 15:06:46.272578, 2] auth/auth.c:304(check_ntlm_password) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [ntadmin] -> [ntadmin] -> [ntadmin] succeeded [2010/06/30

I am having trouble getting the cupsaddsmb script to work to add the drivers.

Hi list, hi John, having seen last week a post (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?m=107341768923846) that remind me some quirks I encountered, I'd like to see a preamble added to the chapter 12 of the howto. It concerns the diffent types of admin you will need in a PDC setup. I say preamble, but it could be found anywhere else, as long as it could be found (I have lost long hours
