G'day all... Has anyone had any success in achieving the above, without requiring the user to run smbpasswd on the samba server? On the client machine (2000 or XP) when I press ctrl-alt-del and attempt to change the password I get the error "The User name or old password is incorrect..." I need to keep things as simple as possible for my users, they're not highly computer

Hi there... first I apologise for being dim... Where can I download SWAT from ? I've looked on the Samba.org site but it only tells me that the demo page is off-line and no more info. Idiot proof instructions for installing it on RH 7.2 would be handy too :-) Thanks Mike

I want to create a user "samba" that has admin privileges over the directory where Win95 apps will be installed, but does not have root privileges. Are their any problems with doing so?

Hi list. I've just got Samba up and running as a fileserver just fine. Now I'm trying to use it as a printserver using CUPS. I can see said printer via Network Neighborhood on XP boxes and add it in Windows but no print jobs complete. No errors in Windows yet no printing start on the printer. Would this be a question of spool permissions? Right now I'm using spool

Hello, I''m trying to setup DNAT to forward to a PPTP Server behind Shorewall. I setup the PPTP rules per your documentation with tcp port 1723 and Protocol 47 DNAT to my PPTP Server in the local zone. Looking at the logs it is dropping the connection going to port 1723. It is also dropping UDP port 1701, don''t know if it is of any significance. I looked at FAQ 1a and b and the

Hello, We can't connect to our pptp server through our CentOS gateway with a XP client. The linux client is working but not the XP client. I know for a fact that the pptp server is not the problem because if I connect the XP machine directly to the Internet the pptp vpn is working. I know about the pptp-conntrack-nat patch, I compiled the 2.4.9 kernel, with patch-o-matic-ng-20060511.tar.bz2

Last question, I promise, I am running PopTop for PPTP on the same box as my firewall. I can connect to the box fine, but nothing will route between the VPN tunnel and the local hosts. I read the Some Hosts have Special Firewalling Requirements article and though it was what I needed, but either I don''t get it, or it doesn''t apply to me. Here is my config: Zones: #ZONE

Hi All, Anyone else seeing this. Just updated to kernel 2.6.32-504.12.2.el6.x86_64 and pptp vpn (invoked via Gnome Network Manager) fails to connect. Boot up the previous 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.x86_64 and pptp all good. OpenVPN is not affected. Anyone else seeing this. I have log file details if anyone wants those. Don't see it reported elsewhere.

Hi there.... Has anyone seen a tutorial around for a pptp server (on the same server as the firewall) for centos/rhel 4? I have been following a few general tutorials for POPTOP, but nothing seems to really work as of yet. Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I have a Cisco VPN Concentrator 3000, It has the ability to auth PPTP tunnels off of a WinNT Domain controler. Well, I to use my samba3 box instead of a WinNT box.

Anyway, I setup the VPN Concentrator to auth off of the samba box, and when I test it with the test option, and it works, but when I try to auth a pptp tunnel, it fails saying the

Hi I've been using linux to give VPN access to my corporate LAN using the following software: Centos 5.2 x86 kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen pptpd (poptop) 1.3.4 ppp 2.4.4 The Centos server has directly connected the Internet Router, on one interface (eth1) and the LAN on another (eth0) and it works as the firewall/VPN server of my LAN. It mostly works, however, if I try to connect using

Hi all, I´m running a server that frecuently needs to open a pptp session with a remote server outside my Company. This server is running behind a Shorewall firewall and I don´t find information in Shorewall web page because there is no information in the link http://www.shorewall.net/PPTP.htm#ClientsBehind Nowadays I can connect this server with the remote one but te session is closed after

Hi all! I''ve set up a Linux box with shorewall doing proxy arp as per http://www.shorewall.net/shorewall_setup_guide.htm#ProxyARP the 5.2 (non routed) example. Everything is working great except for one thing, and that leads me to my question: is there a conflict between proxy arp and pptp? I''ve set the apropriate ACCEPT rules to allow tcp port 1723 and protocol 47 to the host

I have two/three PPTP servers on my network and each one of them are on their own subnet and I want to be able to send traffic to each and everyone. My rules file entry is as follows DNAT net loc:1.1.1.1 tcp 1723 DNAT net loc:1.1.1.1 47 and DNAT net loc:2.2.2.2 tcp 1723 DNAT net loc:2.2.2.2 47 however all the traffic only goes to 1.1.1.1 because its the first DNAT entry. I tried the

The problem scenario I describe was reported previously in the Shorewall lists but its resolution does not seem to have made it into the lists. Scenario: Windows XP client seeking to establish a VPN connection to a Windows 2003 Server located behind a Shorewall firewall (running on Mandrake kernel 2.4.22-37mdk). The connection cannot be made, the client reports error code 721. Discussion:
