similar to: NT Domain Controllers, samba, and Win2k clients

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but would it then be possible to join a "real" NT4 or Win2k BDC to the Samba domain and establish the trust relation from our other Win2k? Or does the trust relationship have to be "registered" with the entire domain and therefore all the domain controllers? Khanh Tran Network Operations Sarah Lawrence College 1 Mead Way

I've added it in the way as described in 2. smbpasswd -r XXX -j TELIT -U mydomainuser and I got the message successfully joined domain telit (or something similar) XXX - here this is the same server, which I use with security = server and this is the PDC of the win2k domain I don't know what kind of account has the machine in the win2k domain - as I said I don't have any direct

I'm running AIX 4.3.3MR9 on an H50 with NT4.0SP6a clients. Samba is 2.2.4 compiled on the system with GCC. I've been having an issue for a few weeks and it really looked like some type of name resolution issue. When NT clients browse samba shares from my AIX server they take 30-60 seconds to come up. Sometimes they won't come up at all. All of my DNS, WINS, and hosts files check

Hello, Please forgive my ignorance if this is a old topic or is a easy, I am rather new to these stuffs. I have Samba running and authenticating properly in our Organization as a PDC. Now if I wanted a Windows 2000 server as a BDC for that domain, it that possible (samba 2.2 or 3). I know the 3 alpha supports active directory. The Windows 2000 server will be a BDC for the Samba PDC. If

Hi. I'm trying to estabilish a trust between Win2k configured in mixed mode with SAMBA 3 server. I followed instructions from SAMBA HOWTO, however the trust is not working - I don't have any clue why is it not working - I didn't find any usefull message in SAMBA logs - I will continue debugging today evening. I want to achive that users from SMBDC domain can login into computers

I decided to install Win2K on my "retrogaming/htpc" system to take advantage of the dual processors in the thing when I'm multitasking a lot, but, it's kind of annoying having to use first one bootloader to chainload my Windows 98 partition, then, via NTLDR, selection Windows 2000 to get to Win2k. I tried using the recovery console to try to force it to write a boot sector to

Hi all, I'm using Samba from a long date, and i was need to configure it for a client who want to replace his old NT4.0 server (acting as a PDC) I've install Samba version 3.0.22 on an Ubuntu Server (Kernel 2.6.17-10-generic). As my client was interested by LDAP, i've join Samba with LDAP. My Samba Server was first acting as a BDC, then i've vampirise all NT4 account, and all

Dear sirs(madams): I've just configured samba 2.2.2 on FreeBSD 4.5 to server as a windows NT PDC. The domain once worked well after configuration. But today, I suddently encountered with certain trouble, that I can't join any clients to the domain any more. Even those I've joined to the domain sucessfully other days can't be joined to the domain either after I removed them

Hi all - sorry for the off-topic posting - just that the list of consultants on the samba site is horrendously out of date! I thought that this would be the best place for me to find suitable resources... firstly I would like to say thanks a million to all the samba team for your ongoing efforts and great product. I just wish I had more time to experiment with it! We have the startings of a good

Hey everyone, firstly thanks for your time, I've spent hours, a lot straight days too, for the last couple of weeks trying to solve this issue. The only thing (afai can see) I've got left is asking the experts and formatting all the machines and starting over, the latter of which I'm not interesting in doing because it doesn't solve the issue (well it might make the problem go

My Win98(SE) Samba clients can query the Samba-exported printer status, but Win2K(SP3) clients cannot. Both clients can actually print documents. I am running Samba v2.2.3a on a Linux (Red Hat v7.3) system. This server makes 2 printers (via a LPR subsystem) and several shared directories available to our Linux, Win98 and Win2K (soon to be WinXP also) clients. From a Win98 client, print

Hi I am trying to find someone who can help me with configuring samba as a Win2k PDC, I have read various How-TO's and the online reference material but some of it has conflicting advice. I wondered if someone who has actually managed to configure and uses samba as a Win2k PDC and logon server could email me to help me with this issue. Javid Mahdavi

Hi ! Sorry to bother you but as you're pretty close to what I would like to do with samba, maybe you could help me to answer the above questions. As I guess you're both in a hurry, I don't ask you long technical explanations. Just theorical informations to get a good understanding of what I am going to do. Thanks a bundle in advance.

Hi, We have Samba 2.2.6(+2.2.7 security patch) installed on solaris. Samba is used as PDC for WinNT and Win2K clients. The WinNT machines have no problems geting into the domain as machine trust accounts exist in /etc/passwd and smbpasswd file. However, Win2k clients are not able to join the domain. I did go through the documentation, and hence created root account in 'smbpasswd'

Hi All- Please tell me if I'm posting to the wrong list. I looked for the list called samba-ntdom (listed at http://us1.samba.org/samba/archives.html) because it seemed a more appropriate forum, but it looks like that list has been dissolved. Has the discussion for that list moved to some other list? Anyway, here's the problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with: I have

This problem is something about SAMBA smbd. It doesn't matter whether samba runs also as WINS server. I wrote earlier: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-December/077722.html My networks WINS server is WINDOWS 2000, not samba. I had both my PDC and BDC upgraded to 3.0.1 once. The errors accessing W2K workstation went away after downgrading both samba servers to 3.0.0. Even BDC can

All, For a bunch of good reasons ;), my company thinks of getting rid of our win2k DC and replacing it with a linux RH 7.3 box with samba 2.2.4 or 2.2.5. Before starting working on that, I would like to gather some basic informations. We've got solaris 2.8, linux and win2k clients machines. LDAP: I understand that I need to setup an LDAP server which will replace the win2k Active Directory

Hello all, Yesterday I've setup samba 3.0.2pre1 as PDC on linux Debian Wooody with 2.4.24 kernel on my home network. I have also 2 additional machnies running win2k with sp4 included.

Hello All, I am new to Linux and Samba, and have RH7.3 with Samba 2.2.5 installed on my Win2K domain (mixed mode). I am testing RH7.3 as a file server so that I can integrate it into one (for now only one) of our client's Win2K domains. Running wbinfo I can retrieve a list of domain user and group accounts, and in webmin when assigning permissions to Samba shares I can choose these

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Sorry, I'm a bit slap-happy...been fighting Win2k/APW problems ever since I upgraded to 2.2.3a. Still having problems >2.2.4-pre and now 2.2.4. I have a workaround, sort of...set disable spoolss=no, install drivers for the HP printers; then set disable spoolss=yes. Add "use client driver=no" on each of the HP printer entries. Add
