Hi, I have one NT4 PDC that needs to be migrated to Samba-PDC. No Active Directory. Just users, groups, windows shares... the works. I'm seeing that Samba-3.x is "very PDC-oriented". I like that. But, so far, Samba-3 is still in beta/pre-release versions and in my "stock" distribution, Samba is on 2.2.7a version (2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix). Should I wait for Samba-3?

is smb over ssh still valid? i eagerly tried it as specified in the unofficial samba howto <http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba.html>, but no go. net view responds "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found." ssh (putty, with port 139 forwarded to localhost:139) did successfully connect from a win2k machine accross the internet to my redhat 7.2

I have been building 2.0beta5 on a SCO OS5 box using ggg 2.7.1 and get the following error (every time rpc_msg.h is included). Compiling smbd/connection.c In file included from /usr/include/rpc/rpc.h:42, from include/includes.h:317, from smbd/connection.c:22: /usr/include/rpc/rpc_msg.h:54: parse error before `1' *** Error code 1 (bu21) The problem is with

Hi Collective users of Samba, (does has a nice ring to it eh?) Recently I found a my samba server being infected by win32 viruses. Though it does not affect the server in any way, I do find them to be an annoyance. I understand also that I can perform "veto" of files like *.exe in smb.conf but find that to be a wee bit restrictive. There are some users who stores valid executables in

I DLed DirectX 9.0C redistributable and ran it with Wine. I didn't know it would want to know the directory to install to. Its obviously going to be in Wine's drive_c folder, but beyond that I have no idea. I was having some trouble with Winetricks installer so i thought manually would be easier. Anyone know where to install these files?

I have a home network based on Win XP Pro, with one Linux machine running Red Hat 9. All updates have been applied. There's no domain controller. I can connect from the Linux machine to the XP machines via Konqueror using smb://mymachine/myshare However, I can't use the mount command. I'm trying to use syntax like mount -t smbfs -o username=myname,password=mypwd //192.168.0.1

I have joined my win2k client machines (win2k professional or win2k professional server) to my PDC. This worked fine and I did all recommended as e.g. in the HOWTO http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba/samba-pdc.html#joining. So far I can also login localy to the win2k client machines using a local account and connect a network drive from the PDC using a valid account on the PDC (as given in the

Hello Guys, First off let me say thanks for your efforts on Samba. Next I have a problem, I dled the samba 2.2.2 tarball and installed it and now I am at the configuration stage. It says I have to add two lines netbios-ssn lines to the inetd.conf file. Well, unfortunately there is no inetd.conf. However there is an xinetd.conf file is that the same thing and if so, what and where do I

I have a FreeBSD 4.10 box with samba 3.04 set up and a Windows XP pro sp1 client. Everything is fine, except every 15 minutes or so for no apparent reason the connection drops and I'm unable to access the server. Then after a few minutes the whole thing starts working again, and 15 minutes or so later, the connection drops again. The problem is pretty similar to

Use the "smbpasswd -a username" to setup a new user password. But without your setup and how you did it and what is going on in the logs it is hard to answer this question, it is very broad. There are great and wonderful documents to learn all about SAMBA and how to set it up. (Thank you to everyone that created those works of art. 'sniff, sniff' Beautiful they are. Got me

Hey, I worked for days on this, and I want to share the solution I stubled across. I got this error message from my wife XP laptop: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found. Please try again later. If this message continues to appear, contact your system administrator for

Hi folks :-) I'm just installing a fresh new samba server, and trying to authenticate some win xp machines. The config is more or less like this : * Windows XP SP1 with all security upgrades * Samba 3.0.0final-1 running on debian testing I'm more or less following this howto : http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba.html#winxp I'm using this smb.conf file : --8<------- [global]

Hi there-- I'm using Debian testing ("Sarge") and recently upgraded to 3.0.0beta2-1 from 2.2. It broke, and I've been pulling my hair our trying to get it working again. I've gone to a Samba HowTo troubleshooting guide: http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba/samba-diagnose.html and gotten successfully through test #4 (NetBIOS Name Resolution) but can't get anything on

Hey, I had a problem with rebooting XP and joining the samba domain, which was controlled by my gentoo linux box. I worked for days for a solution, and found it....!!!! The problem was that I could join the domain fine, but had to reboot, and then found i was rejected from joining then. It appeared like the domain was invisible to the XP box. I pulled my hair out, scoured the web

Hi all, i just dled stuff where i know its downloaded from the correct place. But it gives me NSIS Error. Its possible to ignore the wrong CRC with command line command /NCRC. How to execute the command /NCRC ? i tried wine blah.exe /NCRC and blah.exe -NCRC both don't skip the crc check as if the prog doesnt take the command.

It seems that the rest of the world is able to get past the configure step in samba 2.2.5, but I get an error (I didn't have this problem when I compiled samba 2.2.2 or 2.2.3a, so it leaves me rather stumped). ./configure --prefix=/usr/samba --with-winbind --with-automount gives me the following error on both solaris and irix: checking for conflicting AUTH_ERROR define in rpc/rpc.h

I apologize in advance if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find the FAQ document for this list. I also could not find anything relevant in other Samba documentation sources like http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba.html. There seems to be plenty of information about using Samba *as* a DC, but I want to know if I can use Samba *with* a Windows 2000 DC. We have two DCs running Windows 2000, a W2K
