similar to: samba PDC profile issues with winxp and win9x

OK, after downloading the entire source for Samba 2.2.7a and compiling, instead of simply patching up to 2.2.7a, I no longer have the issue of writing to the Cookies folder in the win9x profile. There is an issue with the win9x machine not shutting down, but that may be a machine issue, so I will troubleshoot that some more. However, the winXP is getting a new error which I am not 100% sure

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear List, Few days ago I've posted, that my Win9x boxes are unable to get the list of domain users and groups from samba-3.0.0 server (for details see bug 596). Unfortunately the same is true for samba-3.0.1pre1. Please people also having win9x boxes and Samba3 PDC confirm that it is a bug, or a configuration error. Thanks for any suggestion.

Hi all, I have two systems using Win98 and one using Win95. These three systems do not automatically execute their login scripts. I can map the network drives manually and tell them to reconnect at login, but I am wondering why they don't execute them. I can log in, browse to my netlogon share (if I make it browseable), and execute the script manually, and it works. Well, it mostly

Hi all, I've been trying to mount partitions on a UNIX machine behind a firewall on a Windows machine. This works fine inside the firewall, but from outside I need to tunnel through it using SSH. I can get this to work from a DOS window on the Windows machine by forwarding port 139, but when I try to access a file from the GUI, I get a "bad directory" error on windows. An

Hi all, In trying to upgrade Samba here, I have built various versions from 3.0.11 to 3.0.14a using various versions of gcc and the Sun compiler (this is on Solaris SPARC) and had the following problem in all cases. Running the built samba as a logon server, I find that WinXP clients work fine but Win9X clients have some difficulties. The problem is that the Win9X logon script can't

I am wondering if anyone has ever answered the question of group policy operability under Windows 9x. That is, I am _not_ looking for a work-around but the real thing--one config.pol file to service several groups. I have done my homework, hopefully well, but found nothing. To prove this, I will quickly summarize my findings below. Either I have found: 1. a list of unresolved (mostly

I'm certain i'm just missing something and haven't hit the right search terms yet, however, the terms I've been trying all lead to others with the same problems and no solutions at all. My network is quite legacy, but has been working: nt4 PDC and BDC several samba file servers, various revisions DOS, Win95, Win98, NT4, 2k, xp clients I have an ubuntu 9.04 32bit samba 3.3.2

I'm a bit confused about user enumeration on Win9x boxes. I've got a couple of machines running SaMBa. One (M2Dual) is running 2.0.7 with security = domain and domain server = M2Hub. The other (M2Hub) is running 2.2.3a with security = user. I also have three Win9x machines. All have user level security turned on. Roving profiles work on all machines and all users. Logon scripts run

I want to install a linux samba server to serve 30 win9x machines. I want to prevent users from writing on the local drives, they should have write access only to their home dirs on the samba box. These users have a nasty habit of deleting crucial system files. Is it at all possible with win9x and samba? Of course NT workstations could resolve the problem, but that's not an option with these

Hi All, Is there a way (speak command/wsh script) that allows a win9x workstation that is logged into a samba domain server (running onlinux for example) to see from the workstation what owner a certain file or directory has? Under win2k the "dir /q" command does this adequately. And if this is possible, is it then possible for someone to change the ownership of a file to another

I have added the line time server = Yes to my smb.conf file. All my win2k machines can do a net time \\servername /set an answer yes an the time is set to what is on samba server. Now the win9x machines will not do it. gives me an error # 2103, the server you specified can not be found. Is this a problem with win9x machines or do i need to do something else to get the time to be set from the

Hi list! I'm trying to make a hd image with can boot from memdisk over PXE. So this is what i did: - Created a new VM [VMware] -Installed DOS on a 100MB HD from a floppy -bootet Linux over PXE [DamnSmallLinux] -in terminal: dd if=/dev/hda of=dos.img This image [dos.img] isn't working! Memdisk loads the Image and boots the HD! The error message is something like this: I/O Device

Hi everyone...I'm at a dead stop setting up Samba, so let me jump right into the problem: First, the setup: I have a RH7.3 box and a W98 laptop. The RH box also has a W2k Pro partition. We have them on a 4-port 10base-T hub along with our RoadRunner cable modem. Now on to the problem: As most of you are already aware, RR uses DHCP to assign IP addresses to client machines at boot time.

Hi, i'm having a serious problem with the following logon-script. It works under W2k, but not under W98, although W98 tells it is running startup-script .. First my smb.conf (only interesting parts) : ---snipp--- [global] server string = Samba-PDC %v on %h workgroup = WORKGROUP encrypt passwords = yes netbios name = 486dx66 domain master = Yes

Hi, I would want Samba shares to be automatically mounted as logicals drives on win9x machines. For this i try to use KIXTART (http://www.kixtart.org), a logon script processor for Windows. The advantage is that a unique login script may be used for all the users. The shares need to be mounted accordingly to the unix groups the user belongs to. Fo example, if a user belongs to the IT and TOTO

Hi there I am having a problem when using User-Level Access on Win9x with my Samba 3alpha22 domain. When editing Sharing properties for a directory, I select "Add" to modify or view the list of domain users available. I then get the following error: You cannot view the list of users at this time. Try again later. As far as I understand, this facility has been functional since Samba

I have a Samba 3.0.0 PDC (and WINS server) that has been running fine for some time. I also have Samba fileserver running 3.0.0. The PDC is "littleboy" and the fileserver is "sardine". This configuration has been stable since the day after 3.0.0 came out, and we were running 3.0.0pre(s) on the PDC before 3.0.0 was released and that was stable as well. Now (or as of 10/16)

how can i mount a drive that is being shared by a windows 9x or 2k computer with samba? Thanks, Rob Kobiske
