Hi all! Here is an interesting problem: I have installed Mandrake 9.0 on two server boxes, both of which are running very happily and have been for a year now (and a year or two before that on earlier versions of Mandrake). I was able to successfully add printer drivers to one of these boxes (as it was the only one running Samba at the time, called MAIN) without any problems. Yesterday, I

Hi all! First off, I'd like to thank you for the help you've previously given me. I'd like to state a few of the problems I am now experiencing, and you all can provide insight. I've read all the documentation I can find and have surfed the archives for this newsgroup, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated! (I am using SAMBA 2.2.7) Issue 1: If I don't

Hello, when I store a file biger than 2GB to a samba server version 2.2.5 everythink works fine. But when I do that with a server version 2.2.6 or 2.2.7 the saving fails on the 2GB limit. The problem can be seen with windowsclients or with smbclient (any version > 2.2.5). I did some debuging and find that the lseek64 fails. But I didn't find the reason. Regards Klaus Ethgen

Hi, i've tried to configure samba 2.2.7 + winbind on a Mandrake 9.0 linux system, and all work fine, but i've only a problem: when i connect with any Windows XP Client the system ask to me the Username/password (the computer is in a NT 4 domain) and in the syslog i can see this line: rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:cli_net_sam_logon_internal(406) cli_net_sam_logon_internal:

Hello once again, I've got winbind doing authentication not just for the samba service but also sshd and login. It's great. However, I have to give a fully-qualified username (e.g. "GENEEDINC+chris.palmer") as the username when logging in via these methods. I wondered, Is there any way to get winbindd to insert the domain and the separator for the user, when none is provided? I

Hi, I have a box running with samba 2.2.7 and winbind (nmbd and winbindd in use) to allow users of the local NT domain to login. The config files for PAM and /etc/nsswitch.conf have been configured correctly so logins are now possible using the local console (login), ssh, xdm and su. Almost everything works fine - everything but the time that is needed for the login process of an NT user to

We're about to start migrating from Windows NT 4.0 to a Samba controlled setup. I've got a question about the functionality of the Samba PDCs and BDCs. In my Windows setup I have three domains that are defined by geographic locations. Each of these domains "trusts" the other. In Samba 2.2.7, I can't have the trusts, so I'm looking at creating one giant domain that

Hello, I did not have any response of my first mail.

The only way I can get a machine to join my Samba PDC is via the following commands. # /usr/sbin/useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c "asa" -s /bin/false asa$ # smbpasswd -a -m asa I thought that using ldapsam would lookup all machine information from LDAP without having to

Greetings ... I have a quick question, which I hope will get a straight and quick answer. I am moving my system from flat files to LDAP. I have had my users in LDAP for a while, but then found that my computer accounts for Win2K in still in passwd.
