similar to: plea for sample config files : accessing samba from windows...

Hello, I have scoured the samba archives, and have found a few suggestions to this problem, like setting registry setting on the Windows machine to allow clear text passwords, and making sure permissions are setup correctly in the smb.conf and with the directory to share... but to no avail... Can someone shed some further light on this topic. None of the prior posting's actually had a

Are the latest updates for Samba ( 2.2.7a ) available on the mandrake update system yet ? Mr Smiley

Hi All, Can anybody point me to a site where there is good up to date documentation on how to use Win2000 authentication for a samba server? Thanks, Craig

Hi, im from argentina. Im working for a local University who has many lab`s. One of them has 30 machines with dual boot, nt workstation and Linux Mandrake 9.0, and a PDC nt server 4.0. I`d installed samba on my Mandrake`s, and work just fine, but when i try to create a local home directory for the users, a message pop`s, and says cant ceate home directory /home/user_name. Permissions on that

Help please I am running Samba 2.2.3a on Mandrake 8.2. My configuration file is below. I am trying to use XP as a client.

Many thanks Rob ;*******************section global***************** [global]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 RPMs of samba3 for Mandrake were uploaded to the samba FTP mirrors on Saturday.

I lost my bookmarks to the samba binaries compiled for Mandrake 9.0. I'd like to mess around with the 3.0 stuff. I remember there were 2 ftp sites that stayed pretty current. I'd like to add them to URPMI so I can update easily. Thanks Jim

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I'm on the way to implement samba with ldap on five servers (each owns a different nt-domain) and a master server which maintains the central user database which gets replicated to all the other servers. Now I have just one more problem, namely homedirs. I want every user to have a homedir to store for example his profile. This has to

Hi everyone! I'd like to finally announce "version 1.0" of my (unofficial) LDAP-Howto "Using OpenLDAP on Debian Woody to serve Linux and Samba users": http://homex.subnet.at/~max/ldap/ I hope it may be of help to somebody. Of course, I'm always glad to hear about your opinion, additions, corrections or any other kind of add-ons. Cheers, Max -- The first time any

Not to be the annoying child, but I have found myself uniquely annoyed that I can't update RPMs that include Samba 3, and I'm not certain if that's because it's even ready for Mandrake 9.2. Does anyone have a bead on this? Should I just go back to 2.2.8 and wait for the stable, or can someone point out a URL that has a stable 3.0 on it? Thanks Eric

Hello all. First, a little background... I recently downloaded samba-*-ldap-2.2.5-2mdk , installed on Mandrake 8.2 and got everything working fine. I have LDAP installed for "single sign-on" support. I can use LDAP to authenticate other Linux boxes, and have Samba as a PDC for some Win2000 boxes - all working fine. Linux users are the same as PDC users, except for their passwords

I am attempting to integrate a Linux Samba Server with an NT 4.0 PDC. Ideally I am looking to authenticate the users on the PDC, and then permit access to the Samba Shares on the Linux Box. I have several issues, but the one which is presenting itself currently is when I attempt to Browse the PDC using smbclient. I get the following: smbclient -L dumbo added interface ip=192.168.0.11

Should I be required to add the machine to my passwd file even if I am using LDAP when joining a W2K domain domain? The only way I can get a machine to join my Samba PDC is via the following commands. # /usr/sbin/useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c "asa" -s /bin/false asa$ # smbpasswd -a -m asa I thought that using ldapsam would lookup all machine information from LDAP without having to

I installed the RPMS from samba web site for Mandrake 9.1. Configuration is weird as things are labeled smbd3 or winbind3... Testparm runs against /etc/samba/smb.conf yet swat configures the smb.conf in a different location...hmm.... But really my problem is joining the AD domain as a member server. I can't locate the net tool. How is this done? How does testparm know to test against
