I apologise for the fact that this has nothing to do with Samba, but it does have something to do with *NIX system admin. Can any of you recommend a good POP3 daemon/server? I am currently using Sendmail for SMTP and am wanting a POP3 server to work alongside it. If of course you know of something that I can install to replace sendmail AND give me POP3 then that'd be even better. Target

Hey, I am just wondering how you enforce security (such as permissions) on local workstations while running Samba 2.2.x as a PDC with 2K/XP workstations? As some of us don't have or want 2000 Server to enforce things like policies etc... how do you all do it. E.g. If we want 'Administrator' to have access to all start menu etc... yet standard users to have only programs, no settings

Hey all, I hope you all had a pleasent holiday season (okay so I'm a week or so late... I've been in hibernation <g>). Now, does anyone out there know where I can get documentation on running Samba 3 as a PDC using LDAP as a backend - I know I'll get plenty of URLs, so to narrow things down a little, I'm competant with Samba 2.2.x and have no clue about LDAP, yet we're

Hey, Quick question. We run Samba 2.2.8, is there a version of Samba (2.2.x/3.x) that allows me to do the following : Go into Poledit, add a group that corresponds to a UNIX group (e.g. Staff) and set policies on it, having those policies apply to ANYONE in UNIX group 'staff' ? The samba server we have is the only PDC and have several NT4 servers as members only. Any thoughts? I

Hey there, Just a question for you Samba 2.2.x gurus out there :) We have a contingent (a steadily increasing contingent) of Win2K and WinXP workstations. Does anyone here know how to stop the profiles from replicating? If we create a file in the profile dir, say \\PDC\UserHome\profile.doc. It will replicate that to the profile directory, while one file or two files are not a problem, we use

Hey all, I installed Samba 3.0 RPM onto our RH 9.0 system (a test system), it took me a long time to configure this one up as I wanted to learn how it does what it does and why, so when we deploy it as our main PDC (once S3 becomes final), we can be aware of any issues or bugs ahead of time. Anyhow, I have come across a few problems with it, whether these are known issues already or not I am not

I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I read the Samba-PDC LDAP howto for both the HEAD and TNG samba versions. Since it appears the TNG LDAP stuff isn't functional, I wanted to try to setup samba using the older HEAD schema. I have tried several times to to compile the 10/15/99 samba on a linux box using the 2.2.14 kernel, but I consistantly get the same compile error. I have

Hi all, I have tried today to move a Samba 3.0.10 PDC from it's old hardware and OS (RH9) to it's new hardware and OS (Centos 3.4 - RH Enterprise3). I copied the files from the old server (password files and such) to the new server in the relevant directories. I also copied secrets.tdb and all the other .tdb files that samba uses from /var/cache/samba or /var/lib/samba. I start up the
