Hey all, Relatively new to Samba configuration here - I've set up a system where XP clients can login and get their roaming profiles and all is well with that, but I see the synchronization which takes place on logout to be a big problem. So, I'm looking to turn off roaming profiles and instead go with remapping the documents, desktop and pictures folders to their server

I just sent this . but realized i sent it from the wrong email addy . want to make sure it gets thru to the list . so i'm resending . i apologize if both copies make it thru.

Hi, I have 4 Samba servers DC1, DC2, DC3, SRV8. DC3 is a domain controller and file server, SRV8 is a file server. Sometimes one/another computer cannot mount network shares from SRV8. We can log in on that computer, but when we try to mount a network share, Windows asks credentials for the share, but doesn't accept it. When we log in with another user on the same computer, the result is the

Hi I hope someone can help We currently have Windows XP Professional PCs that logon to an old Novell Netware 3.12 server. We?re just using the standard Windows Netware client, and each user has a Windows XP User account and password that matches their Novell one. When they logon to Windows, they are automatically authenticated to Novell. However, we are now in the final stages of

sorry, the darn reply to got me again ---------- Forwarded message ---------- can you remote regedit from linux? if so, you can execute on logon from the samba server a push of the keys, you can even make a queue of pushes that run only once. -jason pyeron On Tue, 28 Dec 2004, Danny Paul wrote: > The only thing I've tried with any success is to find the registry keys that > need

Hello, I have set smb.conf to turn off roaming profiles by putting "logon path" and "logon home" as blank entries. However, I find that if I attempt to login as an user in a Windows machine that does not already have a local profile for that user, I get "Unable to logon as DOMAINNAME is not available" or something like that... It does not create an automatic

did someone really try to make this complicated or did it really just turn out this way?? How can any of you use LDAP with its.. cn=xyz ou=abc godknows=whatelse ..complicated syntax. I thought learning command line Linux was hard....I don't want to go through that again! *) frustrations not withstanding...I do sincerely thank the Samba team for a package which has served us well for 3 years.

Hey all, I've got a few WinXP workstations logging into a 2.2.4pre (CVS from April 30th, around 8 p.m. PDT) PDC, and I'm having some sort of odd problem with roaming profiles. The XP workstations can successfully (it seems) retrieve and save thier profiles to the samba box; however, if I log off a user, say "gary", from one workstation, and travel to the next one, and log in

Hi, I upgraded our servers from Wheezy to Jessie. I use samba in classic mode, with openldap backend. After the upgrade, on the PDC (srv3) everything seems to be ok, it authetnicates, the netlogon share is accessible on it, but on the BDC (srv7), what is the file server, the authentication doesn't work, shares are inaccessible. I compared and syncronized the configuration files to as similar

Hi, i'm having a little problem with samba (or Windows98 ?). The story : I'm using the program WHFC (Windows Hylafax Client) on a W2k and Win98-client. Samba 2.2.5 is running on Suse LINUX 7.1 Kernel 2.4.18. The WHFC-program uses a share on the LINUX-server (actually the share contains tif-images of received faxes). No problems with W2k, but with Win98. The WHFC-client shows the

Hi, After our upgrade from Samba 3.x to 4.1.6 we are having major performance issues. Today, I've been able to nail it down to a simple test case. What strikes me is that Windows XP takes about 25 seconds for one job, while it only costs 3 seconds on Windows 7. I have two tests: 1000 files of 10k each (total ~10Mb): * Linux on localhost or a remote host (1GE or 10GE): 5.5 seconds *

Ok, Heres the setup: RH 7.2 with samba-2.2.1a-4. I have had samba as a PDC for sometime now, and WINNT & WIN2k systems have no problem logging on to the domain. Whenever I try from my XP pro test sys, I get: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "WORKGROUP"; Access is denied. I do have a trust account set up for this system, and I manually added the trust

Sorry still unable to find documentation Hello I have set up a Samba 3 PDC on RHEL4 using the tdbsam backed. I can log in as a user who has been added to the tdbsam database from a workstation.

Hi Folks, Can someone satisfy my curiosity (well, at least about the following query!) Reading the draft proofs of an article I've been asked to look through, I find the typesetter has set what would normally be entered as source("xyz.R") or source('xyz.R') as source(`xyz.R') i.e. it has come out with an opening backquote, then xyz.R, then a closing forward

Hi, is it possible to edit the registry of an installed Windows XP under Linux with wine's regedit? I've replaced my mainboard which has a different chipset. So this crappy Windows XP doesn't want to boot now. Cheers, Martin

We are migrating all of our users from the current domain to a new one we created. In this process we are moving them from roaming profiles to local. What would be the best practice to accomplish this? I can find plenty of writeups on how to do the opposite. Also we will be doing some extra folder redirection. Currently we only redirect their my documents to the server. On the new system we plan
