I have tried recently to link up two computers over the network using my machine which is win2000 and our Redhat Linux server 7.2 using samba v 2.2. When I browse the network I can see the approprate workgroup which I have named 'Linux' but the workgroup appears to have nothing available inside it. That is no icon, basically no contents. I am at a dead end, can anyone help me out? Here is

I've got a 2.2.3a-12 (Debian Stable) Samba server running on a small network with 98, 2000, and XP machines. The server is a domain controller and the computers are members of the domain. We are using login scripts to map the drives. I have one computer that is having a weird issue. When the user first logs on, you can go to My Computer and see the drive fine. Double-clicking on the drive

Hello, I am trying to use SAMBA version 2.2.4 at Solaris 8.0 works with Win 2K. My Sun workstation is not registered neither at DNS or WINS since is not supported by our IT folks. So, I configured its name at my Win 2k lmhosts, and the Win 2k client name at my /etc/hosts. I have been tryning to catch up this problem by following the instructions at DIAGNOSIS.TXT file and the Hour 13 available on

Hello, I have Hylafax set up on a RedHat 7.3 server (which uses Samba 2.3b, IIRC). I am trying to get Respond[http://www.boerde.de/~horstf/], a Windows client program, to work with it. The way it works is that samba shares a postscript printer, which calls a perl script on the print command. The network is a Win 2k network, and I want samba to verify with the lan server (or have open access

I am using Samba 2.0.9 on S1 SuSE box and Samba 2.2.5 on S2 Suse box. S1 is acting as PDC for 98, NT clients. (logon script, shares from S1, and S2). Users's passwords are stored on S1, S2 uses security = server and password server = S1 options in smb.conf. I have upgraded both to Samba 2.2.8, but the logon script wants to connect to share from S2, it is prompted for a password. I have

Hi Is there a way of getting samba to use the passwd file entries when utilising POSIX extended acls. I have two groups of users 1) A vast amount of users who access filestore via windows only. In this case I winbind and idmap to assign random UNIX uids as is normal. 2) I also have a much smaller group of users who use NFS and CIFS to access the same area. In this case I put an entry in

First, I want to thank Mark Clement and Steve Litt for their comments. But as the subject indicates, i'm still not having any luck printing. Mark, I can't even get output to a test file. Below is a printout of testparm. One thing that *is* odd, is the reference to a "printers.def" file in /etc. There wasn't any such file there. The contents are a duplicate of the

Since everyone seems to only post problems to this list, I thought that I would try and post a number of solutions at once. This is my working samba configuration file (minus key indentyfying information). It may not be perfect, but it is as close as I have been able to get it to perfect, and that is after working with samba for a few years. This configuration has my server setup as a PDC (with

I plead complete ignorance. I have 2 Win98 boxes and a Win2K box trying to access a Samba 2.08 server running on OpenBSD 2.8. All IP addresses are hard coded with the IP of the Samba box as the Wins server (see the smb.conf) The Win2K box can resolve the name of the Samba machine but cannot map to it. The other boxes can't resolve the name. All are set to the same workgroup. [global]

I have Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8 acting as a PDC. I have written a script that checks to see if a user is already logged in on the PDC and if so, sends the user a message (via the SMB message stuff) telling them they need to log off. I run this script using "preexec close" under the netlogon share. So, the user authenticates against the PDC, but then gets a desktop that is mostly

Good time of a day. I have a problem with samba 3.0.2suse and dos file attributes. Users (winxp,2k,98) cannot change ReadOnly file attrib on files that don't belong to them. Example: user1 in group main create file test, he can change file attr or date/time, but user2 from the same group main can not. Sorry for my bad english. Here is my smb.conf: [global] dos charset = CP866 unix

Hey folks. I have samba 2.0.7 running just fine on a freebsd server. I have file shares that work just fine for my windows clients.

Dear samba, i am experiencing a problem when i was setting my redhat 9 to become a domain server for windows, there is no problem for windows 2000 (i have no problem with join domain and domain logins), but with windows XP it's a different story, there's no problem with join domain, but when i try to do domain logins i encountered the following message : "windows cannot connect to the

Hi everyone, I have a question about the logon script command. I've read and read and read the man page for smb.conf. In essence, I've duplicated the settings on the PDC how-to document to create a PDC with a logon script. However, when I log in, the scrips doesn't run. The only thing I don't have enabled, like the how-to, is roaming profiles. I'll include my smb.conf for

Hello, i'm new to the the list so excuse me if I ask for an old problem, but i found no solution in the archive. I try to set up a rh 7.3 server with samba 2.4 as PDC for win2000 sp2 clients. I configured the samba to create the machine accounts on the fly. When I try to join the domain the entries in smbpass and passwd are created fine. After a minute I get the message that I joined the
