similar to: NT domain vs simple workgroups???

Hi, I've been following some of the posts (never received a reply to mine but found one similiar). I have a question that I hope you can clarify. Original question: I can see the server from my Windows XP machine using network neighbors, but when I double click on it I get: Path not found One reply: If you're using NT domains (not simple "workgroups")... What is the

Hello all. I'm hoping to get some advise for my issue. I need to allow other users access to my files to make changes. They do not have physical access to the Linux samba server. I want this password protected so that only those who know the password can do this. Thanks in advance. System at work: Have a Novell Netware Server (don't know version, at an offsite location), with Win NT4

Hi, I have the following situation: 192.168.64.0/24 is my local network. .1 is my PDC (samba 2.2.6) workgroup is vanheusden 192.168.97.0/24 is an intranet somewhere else to which I'm connected through a vpn. workgroup is enderman ip-forwarding is enabled on 192.168.64.1 (my default gateway and endpoint for the vpn) on 192.168.64.1 I've set hosts allow to 192.168. and 127. hosts allow =

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but since I only have Samba servers on my network I'll toss it out and see if anyone knows anything about it. I was originally testing a network configuration that was going to contain an NT PDC, but have since decided to go with a Samba server using workgroups for the time being. Samba is up and running and the Windows 95 and 98

Hi I'll first describe our setup: We have two different networks, one for teachers, and one for students. They are divided from each other, except for ip traffic, and it should stay that way, because students are not allowed to reach the teacher's server... (So when using samba more, I'll have to setup a better firewall I think, and/or samba rules from which IP shares may be

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba

I'm having some problems with (I think) WINS here and am hoping for some pointers to tools that will help me track down what's going on. Really, I'd like to be able to get a big dump of all of the names registered on a WINS server. (The WINS server in question is a NT box to which I don't have direct access. Ideally, I'd like to be able to see a nmblookup-style dump showing

Hello list First and foremost to any developers listening - thank you for Samba - it is just brilliant. Apologies - this is a long post... I am not getting complaints about logon problems from users but I have noticed in /var/log/httpd/error_log, entries like the following for a few users when their logon scripts map drives to shares. Looking back I can see that it has been

Hello Sorry for the newbie question.. I am new to Windows environment. I have setup a Samba -Version 1.9.18p10 on a Solaris 2.5.1 m/c. I want to hook WIN _NT and 95 /98 clients to it. The Win clients are on the same network and are also hooked to other Netware servers. I am not sure how this is done. I have set up entries for the Samba server in the 'lmhosts' file. The

Is this situation a gotcha? Or it may be that I'm looking at the problem wrongly . . We have NT servers as PDCs in many regional centres and our head office. Each local area is a domain. Each local area is also a workgroup, of the same name. Now we have been having problems when someone goes from a regional office with their portable and plugs into head office. Suddenly the WINS server

Hi to all, I'm currently experimenting with implementing a samba server on an SGI o2 running irix 6.5.3. The reason for this is that i am trying to shed some load off a netware server currently serving files to 2 workgroups containing 40 people. One group is a Survey section that has 1.5 gig of Civil engineering and Autocad data - this data tends to be of a dynamic nature. I would like

Dear people at the samba organization, I wish to create multiple workgroups using SAMBA in a single domain on a LINUX Box. The linux box is also the primary domain controller. Please enlist me the procedure and mail to me as soon as possible. Thanking you in advance Sincerely Roopinder Randhawa.

Thanks Rowland, OK, sorry about this... Note that the "Old AD" has some errors in their config files, but everything sort of work so I'm not going to fix those errors - my concern is obviously just the "New AD".  I've not set up printing in the new AD yet as it doesn't work in the old one anyway, and that's a discussion in a future thread.  Note

Hi all, I'm looking for some articles that compare file and print serving on Samba, WinNT and/or Novell Netware, preferably recent versions. My boss is pushing for a reduction of the number of network operating systems that we run. I hope you can point me towards some "unbiased" articles, etc. Thank you Rick Day -- "...the extreme case best illustrates the norm..."

Howdy All, I am the adminstrator in a school which has netware 4.11 ( five servers in the nds tree )as its main student platform. This has been working very well over the past 6 years or so. The school has the ability to obtain a microsoft solution at no cost ( except for the new hardware required, which is the reason for this email in the first place ). Advice and opinions are sought on the

Do you see anything in your configuration file that might indicate why?? You haven't given us enough information
