similar to: Mandatory profile changes languagesetting

Hello! Some days ago I posted a message about mandatory profiles, and got a very useful answer from John H Terpstra with reference to his Samba Guide. Suddenly logging on runs much faster.... However, I have still one more problem to solve. I have set up the win2000 client to delete the cached profile on exit. The "problem" is that the user profile remains on the server in

Hello, i have a red hat 7.2 system and set the environment variable CC='kgcc'. I have git the standard kernel: [root@linux-test source]# rpm -qf /usr/include/asm/statfs.h kernel-headers-2.4.7-10 But when compiling the tng-source i get the following error: Using FLAGS -O -Iinclude -I./include -I./ubiqx -I./smbwrapper -I./lib -DLOGFILEBASE="/ usr/local/samba/var"

This one gave me a headache yesterday: Last updated version of KB824141 hotfix on a Windows 2000 workstation in a domain with Samba PDC has the following consequences: 1. When a user with a mandatory profile logs on, it doesn't load the profile correctly. The cached profile looks like a default profile - empty directories except for the NTUSER.MAN. No Desktop, no Application data ...

I'm pulling my hair out with this. I see that the NT4 white-paper (very helpful and makes a lot of sense) says to make a Template user, set things the way you want them, and then copy their profile to the server. However, I try this, their profile comes out fine, I take care of all of the "Windows is now installing Office 2000" messages, and end up with a user where everything just

Greetings, On Samba3 is it possible to have multiple LDAP users set to use the same homedir and (MANdatory) profile? Any doc/rtfm recommendation beyond official wiki? Best regards. -- *Marcio Merlone*

Hi, first of all: my name is uli... i'm from bavaria/germany and i'm working with linux quite a long time (maybe 10 years). Now my "problem": my samba is setup with ldap-backend. my configuration with mandatory profiles is working quite good. i created a Default User - Profile in my netlogon-share (migrated from a windows-xp client). ntuser.dat has been renamed to ntuser.man.

Hi there, again me, again similar question. First of all, what is it, what I'd like to have: 1.) Every user in my System should use the same profile. In dsa.msc I gave every user as profile-path \\samba4\profiles\stud 2.) The users should not be able to change anything in that profile (I think changing ntuser.dat to ntuser.man should do the job, proposed i got step one managed ;) )

Hello! I am running samba 3.0 on fc2 in a win2000 network. I want to use only mandatory profiles in the network, but can't get this to work properly. I have set up a "perfect user" on my local machine", and copied this profile to \\server\netlogon\Default User. I have also made this default profile mandatory by renaming ntuser.dat to ntuser.man. In smb.conf I have added:

Hi, well, I guess that this is something that I need to plan to do :-). I'm developing a plan for a group of updated docs for TNG (and Samba, compared to TNG). Quickly, you're asking for 1) A bulleted list? 2) A Kvivio flowchart? 3) Some other comparison? Could you tell me in general terms: do you need to "sell" TNG to the boss or something? I can't give it to you now.

Hello, first of all, this is a message corresponding to a thread named similar in tng-users mailinglist (tng-users@samba-tng.org). I am successfully running a samba-tng server at work for quite a year now but now I want to get to the "official" version (2.2.x) again for increased stability, namely in file locking issues. The samba-tng server is holding about 35 users along with their

update: - fixed smbd for win95-style profile-locating (it now works, thank you to everyone who sent in log files to get this fixed) - various modes tested and confirmed as working: * ROLE_STANDALONE security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = no domain logons = no * ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = yes

OK: First, please respond to me directly, as I'm not on the TNG list. Here's the situation: I will be setting up a "computer lab" for 30-40 PC's with various users (students). Here are my needs: 1) One Touch (point) User administration (the simpler the better) 2) Simplest set of LINUX SW possible 3) NO NT PDC 4) All clients are W2K. 5) Want

Dear list I haven't been able to track down the cause of the following problems and hope someone can shed some light... We have been running samba-tng successfully on our school FreeBSD 4.5RELENG server for 18 months or so, but now need the facility of downloadable printer drivers for our W2k clients. I have installed samba 2.2.7a alongside our running samba-tng (2.6.1cvs) in a dual head

Hi, Does anyone know of a document that gives details on how to set up Bind 9 and DHCPD 3.x so that dns is updated when clients log on? I saw this is not in the howto collection (http://www.bibsyst.no/samba/docs/man/DNSDHCP.html#id2981727) so I was kind of hoping someone else has some notes. I would be greatfull for any tips and links. Tarjei

Hello all, I've been trying to figure out what the best way of doing the group policy thing is. We are running samba 3 on slackware 9 with winxp clients. We are a school. i'm unclear on how much AD is actually supported... OU GPO all that. so i decided to go the "administrative template" way (used to be .pol files) I'm thinking of having the students run off of a

Hi, I posted this problem before in more detail (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=104756899022766&w=2) but received no response. At the current state of Smaba 3.0 and Samba-TNG these two seem to be incomaptible. Samba 3.0 can't join a TNG controlled domain. I think this should affect a lot of installations as TNG as a controller and "stable" as file/printserver seem

Hello, We recently undertook to migrate our domain from samba-TNG to samba-2.2.2. However, it did not go smoothly. One of the main reasons is that even if you start 2.2.2 with the domain SID from the TNG installation, you find that the users' RIDs are different. This is because samba-TNG calculates the RID from the unix UID using the formula UID*4 + 1000 where as 2.2.2 uses UID*2 +1000. At

Dear all, This is an embedded firmware engineer Honey from China, and I am studying the samba and samba-tng, because the size of samba is too large to my development. I want to port the samba-tng to embedded ARM Linux system, use the kernel version is 2.6.35, but I found the samba-tng can't be compiled by cross compiler(arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc). And I can't

I've followed the instructions in the DUAL-SAMBA-HOWTO to try to install a Dual Samba system. I'm running Redhat 7.0 (awaiting my 7.3 in the post). I've installed it, added the user `CSMSRV-HEAD$' to both linux and also, using 'samedit' to TNG. This is the name of my HEAD samba server running. I've changed the security = share, and the server works on the network.
