similar to: Migrating W2K AD to Samba?

I have successfully installed Samba 2.2.7a as a PDC and has added the "add user script" to automatically create machine accounts. This worked very well when I added my client machine the first time. It successfully joined the domain and I was able to login as a user. I then removed the machine from the domain and put it in an unrelated workgroup and then tried to re-join the Samba

I've searched through the mailing lists and seen a few similar problems, but those fixes didn't fix me.

I am replacing a W2K AD server with a Samba server. The server has a single W2K Workstation client, in a public area and used by a dozen or so different users. When I join the workstation to the Samba domain, it complains that it cannot load a roaming profile (in the W2K AD domain, it used local profiles), and it does not create a new local profile, instead using a temporary profile. Obviously

Hi, I've been running some test data copying from a W2K box to our new Samba box but have noticed that the assigned Windows ACL's are lost when copying. The only ACL's specified are those assigned to the directory in Linux that the data is being copied to. Is there any way to retain the Windows ACL's? Either through an smb.conf parameter or some other feature? System config is

I'm ready to take w2k and Bill Grates and hang them up by their balls. Under Win98SE, it is easy to add a network printer attached to Samba. But under w2k, it refuses to do it. I've tried two ways to get the damn thing installed to the net and it fails. First I did the route of adding a network printer. It browsed and found my \\MRVIDEO\lp printer. It also found \\MRVIDEO\scroll,

Hi Samba 2.2.5, Linux 2.4.9. We're running a small network of half-a-dozen W2K and NT4 clients. We have an NT4 server and have just migrated all our file serving to our Samba server. It's immediately obvious that our W2K clients are now running much slower when accessing files on the Samba server. The NT4 machines are fine. On a W2K/NT4 dual-boot machine, W2K runs ten times slower - no

Hello, My PC is a multi-boot W2k and Linux with Samba in my company's domain. I would like to be able to share the same "machine account password" for both my w2k and my Samba server to avoid having to remove and insert my machine each time I change my OS running (or upgrading my Linux) because I'm not domain admin. Is it possible ? If yes, where and how should I get

Desperate to find out why connecting to a samba share(on an AIX server) from W2K is so slow, I tried connecting to the same share from a Linux box, using smbclient: smbclient \\\\aixserver\\sharedir$ -U lynn The results were amazing. The connection was so MUCH FASTER then connecting from a W2K (pro) workstation: \\aixserver\sharedir$ (in the Start|Run edit box) When I examined the samba log
