Hi, A weird problem ... My PDC is running samba 3.0 cvs from a couple of weeks ago. the os level is set to 65 and that machine has been the master for my domain for ages, until last night. A win2k client machine stoll the domain and made itself the master for the domain, hence a few problems. I have cranked the os level to 80, however I'm pretty sure that is not supported/a bad idea/not to be

Hello there, I have a samba PDC 3.0.0 running ok, but I had turned on the option "Time Server" in smb.conf, to synchronize the workstations time with server. But the workstations synchronize 1 hour less than it is. I think that the workstations isn?t considering the daylight saving time. I?m using the command: net time \\server /set /yes Thank?s, []?s Tercio

Just a few quick questions: If I make changes to smb.conf, do I need to restart the SMB and NMB services, or is it like Vixie Cron, where it'll re-read the file and adapt changes every minute? Why do I have multiple NMB instances running, but only one SMB? Thanks for the help! Aton

Hello. I've got several clients using samba (ranging from 2.2.1a to 2.2.5) as their primary windows server. The question has come up with clients about ease of administration and security rights for samba. Currently, the only way I've been able to show clients how to manipulate security settings and restrict users from certian shares is to use write and read lists per share, or create

Hello there! I am really frustrated. I try to get samba printer share to work since like 4 days now. No luck yet. Here is my problem: Windows 2000 can connect to a shared printer, but when it comes to printing I fail. Is samba able to print with cups? (I installed the printer with cups and there it works great.) How can i find out which print command I need to use? I tried playing with lpr on

Hello, I have a mixed network of 98 and 2000 machines with RH 7.3 and Samba 2.2.5 The problem I'm having is my logon scripts contain a drive map to the user's home directory: net use H: \\server01\dave$ That works great for the 98 machines, but the 2000 machines map H: and Z: to \\server01\dave$ The 2000 machines also write a profile dirctory in that share, and copy the entire desktop

All, I currently have a problem where the default user profile is not being picked up - Windows simply ingores it and creates one based on local settings. I understand samba supports default user profiles, and one can be put into the profiles share like this: /export/profiles/Default User/ This directory contains a copy of a working profile from a proper user. The relevant smb.conf sections

Hi, I'd like to ask you what do you limit Desktops syncing in case users put large files on them, e.g. films. Downloading / uploading such large files can generate lots of unnecessary traffic. Is there any kind of filtering possible ? Other solutions ? Cheers, -- Michal Kurowski perl -e '$_=q#: 13_2: 12/o{>: 8_4) (_4: 6/2^-2; 3;-2^\2: 5/7\_/\7: 12m m::#;

Hiya, I have recently upgrade samba to 3.0.1pre1 from alpha3-19. The upgrade went well with no real problems, except ..... I have noticed today that the load on the LDAP server is extremely high. CPU usage on slapd is anywhere between 10%-80%. At one point to day everything came to a grinding halt. The only difference between I can think of is the samba upgrade. This is with an average load of

Howdy All, I need to change the machine names on about 10 machines ( winxp ) on a samba 3.05/redhat9 network ( NO LDAP ) Am I correct in the order I have listed below to accomplish this 1. remove the machines from the domain ( change to a workgroup ) 2. remove the machines from the smbpasswd file ( I can use webmin for this ) 3. stop samba 4. remove the machines from /etc/passwd 5. add new

Hi all, I am attempting to get Sage to support their software if the files are on Samba (Linux). They (like a lot of people I've heard) say "We don't support Linux, Goodbye." even when the client is on Win98/NT. We have been having trouble on a particular site, and they refuse to support Sage Line 50 if the files are on Linux which is absurd, because Linux is much more

Hiya, I want to stop students from writing .bat .exe .com .jar etc files to their w drives but allow staff to do so. I have the normal homes share in the smb.conf file. I decided to put the parameter include = /usr/local/samba/lib/%G_smb.conf I have a staff_smb.conf and a students_smb.conf file. In these files it has just the homes share in it. The only difference is in the students file it

Hi Folks, Just installed Samba 2.2.10 on my FreeBSD 4.9 computer. I can see the FreeBSD box on all of my Win 9x boxes, but when I double click on its icon, I get a rude box message that says something like: ==================================================== You must supply a password to make this connection Resource: \\SAMMY\IPC$ ====================================================

First of all I am new to Samba. I successfully deployed Samba 3.0.6 as a PDC w/roaming profiles. All the workstations have a desktop.ini file that shows up on the desktop after joining the domain. The contents of the ini differ from workstation to workstation. >From my understanding this file is a supposed to be a hidden file, but it is not. Any ideas? I apologize if I have not included

Morning everyone. I have a question about something i've been thinking about lately. I recently rolled out a samba server running 2.2.8a with OpenLDAP 2.0.27 on the backend to hold the user account info. My question is, how many people out there are running samba as their PDC and have implemented a BDC as well? I'm starting to consider about putting up a BDC for safeties sake. Does
