Hi, New to Samba & this list, so please forgive if I make a faux pas. I've got a Redhat 7.3 box with Samba, & 2 Win stations, called "ws1" & "ws2". When either station creates files on the server, all the files get created with permissions of rw-r--r-- (644). How do I get them created with 777? ws1 & ws2 are both set up as entries in the /etc/passwd file

Hi everybody, I'm new to this mailing list, i need help about a configuration with Samba / Openldap. I have a samba server with shared folders, where users authenticate with a determined login/password.

Hi all... looking for some assistance with my first Samba setup. The setup: On a small (five-computer, mixed Win2k and WinXP pro) LAN, I'd like a share on my FreeBSD server to be available for storage. No printing, no PDC, no individual user directories or password protection -- just a big ol' slice of storage for everyone to access equally. I've come close, (the share shows up

This seems to be common enough problem. I've used a variety of methods (command line as well as utilities like LinNeighborhood) to mount XP shares on my RedHat 8.0 running Samba 2.2.7. I get consistent problems the other way around. Despite a couple of shares on my Linux partition, I am just unable to do get to it. Network Neighborhood shows my Linux/Samba server but no shares, nor can I

Hello All: I have a situation where I have a Samba box (RH 7.3 w/samba 2.2.4) that I set up for a client. Another consultant came along and installed a VPN using SonicWalls between the main site and a remote site. So now they want the remote users to save files on my Samba box. No problem except that the remote users can't see my local workgroup or any of the local machines. Here's

I had to setup a new Samba server as a PDC in my job (Samba 3.0) to replace and existing Samba server PDC (Samba 2.2), the old server was running ldap as backend, the new is running tdbsam. I have a lot of bizarre problems when I put both in the same workgroup with other machines. I will give you a list of them: 1) The new server is configured as local master browser and domain master browser,

After trying to get WinXP (Pro) to try and find my domain so I can log on I've finally done it, but now when I try and join my WinXP client to the domain, windows asks me to enter the username and password of an account with permission to join the domain. Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

Hi everyone! I've already deployed samba-2.2.7a-2 and enabled openLDAP support. I now have a machine configured as a domain controller authenticating all windows users via openLDAP. openLDAP is also authenticating all of our linux users. I would like to install Exchange2000 on a windows2000 machine so our windows users can do calendaring (sendmail already handles all of our email needs).

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this one. I am having trouble getting LDAP and samba working properly on my Debian Woody box. I am using OpenLDAP 2.0.27-3 and the unsable packaged Samba version 2.999+3.0 and am using the samba.schema for my LDAP database. Whenever I try to join the network using either W2K or smbclient the LDAP debug log shows that the following filter is being

However, I can type \\<computername> and see all of the shared folders and printers. After doing this the Network Neighborhood still does not show the computer in the Workgroup. Does anyone know why this is occurring and how to fix it?
