similar to: Hiding shares and/or their contents from Windows Explorer

We're using Samba 2.2.2 on AIX (RS/6000) with NT authentication. We only want to authenticate at the PDC, and if they pass, they'll be able to map to whatever shares have been assigned to their Workgroup...we need to bypass any authentication at the AIX level. From the limited documentation (PAM-authenication-and-Samba.html) , it almost looks like PAM will accomplish this task. Is

We're running Samba 2.2.2 over an NT network. Our clients use Win95 (for the time being) and I wondered how we config Samba so they can map the shares using network neighborhood. We can map fine through MS-DOS, but when I try, for example, to map E drive to \\nfssrv\ads share via network neighborhood (where we ARE able to see the shares), it says E: is already connected to . Do you want

We're running Samba 2.2.2 on an RS/6000 (AIX 4.3.3) using Windows 95 clients. We've tried the "hide files" and "veto files" option in smb.conf, but when the shares are mapped, we can still see the contents in Windows Explorer. We used the wildcard for all the contents of the shares (ex. hide files = /*.*/). The Samba manual only makes reference to Windows 98, so

I've been reading chapter 3 of the SAMBA Project Documentation and I can't find any PAM files (pam.d directory) in my /etc. Is there something I need to compile in order to have these files?

Can anyone help me? I have Samba 2.0.5a running on SuSE Linux 6.0 (2.0.36) and Windows NT Server 4.0 SP4 (PDC). When I try to do a "smbclient -L MYUNIX" (according to the trouble shooting guide) I get the following message: Addes interface ip=195.90.254.xxx bcast=195.90.254.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: Domain=[MYDOMAIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.5a] tree connect failed: ERRSRV

We've added the server name to our PDC (as a Windows NT Workstation or Server) and when we attempt to "join" we get the following error msg: hbsrv{root}#smbpasswd -j DDRJ -r PDC-DDRJ cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_NO_TRUST_SAM_ACCOUNT cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine PDC-DDRJ. Error was :

Samba is working perfect on our main subnet, but it won't for any additional subnets on this domain. We use NT authentication and my system is an RS/6000. I just found out that our routers for these additional subnets have netbeui/netbios turned off. Network Admin. said it's because they're set not to allow broadcasting (and they're not going to start), and turning

We've got Samba 2.2.2 up and running fine on an RS/6000 (AIX) machine w/ NT authentication. We have one domain w/ multiple subnets, and need users on these different subnets to have access to the shares on this machine. We've tested from a different subnet than the one we originally ran smbpasswd on, and it fails (prompting for the passwd to the share...when it works fine from the

Hi people. I have some issues, I setup a samba server(3.0.28) with gentoo, samba + ldap. Is working, I can create users, change, add, mod, etc,etc. I setup each home drive, using smbldap-tools. Everything is working good. But I have 1 problem, I want to setup my windows xp pro sp2 users to have roaming + folder redirection to my samba server. Some folders are very easy to move to be in

<disclaimer> This is really not the forum for this, but it's come up before, and I don't have an answer for it. On the other hand, this is the most astute list or newsgroup I've read pertaining to Windows networking, so here goes... </disclaimer> Using Samba 1.9.18p8, HPUX 10.20 and Win95 clients, we have W95 configured to require a domain logon, and as far as that goes

Hi samba gurus, I have a successful install of samba/LDAP (on FC5) and am looking at applying security templates for different groups. I had this successfully working on my old RH9 box running samba (but not using LDAP). Using poledit, I created groups (sales, it, etc) that were the same as my linux groups, and created a Ntconfig.POL file. Referring to this article for use on poledit.exe and

I've got Samba 2.2.2 installed and running fine on one of our servers (RS/6000 AIX 4.3.3 and using NT authentication), however, when I do Test #4 (from docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt) it looks like this: npssrv{root}#nmblookup -B npssrv _SAMBA_ querying _SAMBA_ on 173.148.200.113 name_query failed to find name _SAMBA_ The test said I should get back the IP address of our samba server. I got

Hi Jerry ,hi Sambatsitas, yesterday i installed a brand new ldap smb pdc with latest smb sources ( all suse 9.2 ), and latest ldap scripts from idealx.( orginal source rpm ) All work fine ( as far i testet it ). (Usrmgr was just wow..!) So at last i did a NTConfig.POL with poledit.exe for win xp serv Pack2 on the netlogon share. I used adm modified adm files and a other poledit cause system.adm

Hello, We recently install a Samba PDC for linux and W2k clients. I don't find how to apply security policies editing with Poledit to users-groups defined by ldap organisation units. Policies are only working with default user and individual user. I see with poledit on the domain two groups named "domain users" or "admin users" but I don't understand what they are. I

So only for old NT4 style PDC - BDC environment one needs poledit. While AD's (with virtual pdc role servers) can use the MMC.? We got a pure Samba AD environment and thus it should work. Be it that we might not have all mmc templates (not yet checked that). Thanks Viktor. -----Original message----- From: Viktor Trojanovic?<viktor at troja.ch> Sent: Wednesday 21st October 2020

I've been reading about policies and the documentation says to grab poledit.exe from the NT SP6a file. There are many policy settings that are not available via this tool. Isn't there something newer that could be used to create the .pol file needed by samba to implement policies? Or will this only be available with samba4?

Hello all, I am a new user of samba, that's look pretty cool. I use samba 3.x. There are only windows 2000 client(and 1 XP) in french language. I don't have any license of some server version like windows NT4 server, 2000 or 2003 server. One think i would like to do is setting the time of the windows 2000 client. I write in the "logon script" : net time /domain:mydomain

Hi @all, I have some question I can't find a explanation. I have a standalone Samba3 as PDC. It works perfect with LDAP. Now I want to implement Policies. 1) Is it possible to use GPO from ads ? And if so, where to store this policies. 2) Or can I only use policies created with poledit from NT4 which should be stored in NETLOGON. Any help or links about this would be apreciated.

I have an NTConfig.POL I created from poledit with the Windows 2000 Administrator toolkit. It contains my WSUS configuration, and NTConfig.POL is placed in my [netlogon] share and is being loaded fine by the clients. Is this still the propery way to create NTConfig.POL files, or is there a newer utility I should be using? I'm looking at Vista and it uses .admx templates, which I guess
