Hi, It is possible to login a W2000 workstation into a Samba PDC (version 2.2.6)? Can I use "logon drive" and "logon home" to mount automatically at login time for W2000?

Hi All, Moving up from 2.0.7 to 2.2.6 is taking it's toll, but I'm getting there... Right now I'm stuck on the smbpasswd stuff. With 2.0.7 I don't maintain one (AFAIK). All users have UNIX accounts on the old machine, and I'm porting over the passwd file to this new one. I have no idea what their passwords are, and up till now, they simply change their UNIX passwd and

Hi folks, Yet one more newbie into the fray. I'm trying to upgrade a Red Hat 7.2 test box from whatever version came with it to 2.2.3a... Here are the steps I have done so far: 1. backed for the conf, smbusers, and smb file 2. stop the smb service 3. ran the command: rpm -e samba 4. tarred the source files to /usr/local/src/samba-2.2.3/source 5. now I'm trying to run the ./configure

The sample Director configuration (10-director.conf) says that director_servers and director_mail_servers can be lists of either IPs or hostnames: # List of IPs or hostnames to all director servers, including ourself. # Ports can be specified as ip:port. The default port is the same as # what director service's inet_listener is using. #director_servers = # List of IPs or hostnames to all

Hi all, Since no one seams to have been able to help me with the problem below I would like to try 2.2.6 with the fixes to the two known bugs that I have read about on the mailing list. How and where do I get the patches for the 2.2.6 bugs? Or are there any patches? Thank you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jo Bob" <jobob@Nadia.globaldelsys.com> To:

I'm new to Samba (and relatively new to Linux itself), so please be gentle. I'm running 2.2.5-1 on RH7.3 and I have it setup and running as a WINS server and I would like to get it up and running as a PDC for my Win2K environment. I've searched the archives, followed the documentation from samba.org and a few other books on Samba itself and I cannot get a Win2K machine to log into the

Hi everybody I have a puzzling situation, I am trying to set up a PDC domain controller, Suse 9.1 with Samba 3.0.4 (ok, suse comes with 3.0.2 but I have tried almost everything XD ), autenticating against ldap 2.2.6 (original suse); also with the smbldap-tools. The situation is, everything works fine without ldap, that is, smbpasswd backend, I did create the directories for profiles and I

Hopefully a simple question. Does anyone know of .deb or .dsc files for Samba Version 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6, or 2.2.7? The only packages available from Debian are: 1. Stable - Samba 2.2.3 2. Testing - Samba 2.2.3 3. Unstable - Samba 30alpha20-4 I've looked on the debian website and in google with no luck. Any help much appreciated? IRV

After trying to get WinXP (Pro) to try and find my domain so I can log on I've finally done it, but now when I try and join my WinXP client to the domain, windows asks me to enter the username and password of an account with permission to join the domain. Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

We are running a windows 2000 domain where I work. I am developing a linux client for desktop deployment so that we can stop the spread of cancer (read microsoft). I can get winbind to join the domain, but when i try a winfo -t, it tells me "could not check secret". I have scoured the internet looking for help and could not find anything.

Hi all! How the heck do I log on to the samba domain? Every logon attempt is met with "The system cannot log you to to this domain because the system's computer accout in its primary domain is missing or the password on that account is incorrect."

Hi, This is a simple query and may well have been answered in the mailing list archives but my searching can't find an answer to my specific problem. My PDC is Samba 2.2.3 on Redhat 7.3, clients are a mix of Win 2k and XP Pro laptops. The Win 2k laptops work fine (all service packs applied) and allow any domain user to log on to any of the 2k laptops. However the XP laptops if I try logging

Hi, I am trying to set up Samba as a PDC on our network and having some difficulty. I established a trusted machine account and added it to the domain.

Hi Samba List - I've been surfing the web for a while looking for some help with moving an existing Samba 3.0 PDC to a different machine. I don't want to have to reconfigure each machine on my domain. There has got to be a way to backup the full domain controller, reinstall the samba packages on a new Linux machine, and just restore the users database, etc. I'm sure someone has
