I simply wonder if I can have several different logon script bat files for MS Win users that validates through my Samba PDC? Let's say that group "users" should have logon batch users.bat and the members of the group "sales" should have both users.bat and sales.bat executed at logon? Or can I in some way use ONE script with parameters that knows about what groups the user

Hi - I posted this to the NT list but have had no responses so far... not sure if it's more appropriate here anyway - hopefully someone can give me some direction with this problem... I've been trying to set up a server to act as a roaming profiles / file server for a bunch of NT 4.0 machines and some 98 machines, and am having two issues, one I'm reasonably sure is an NT

Hi, I am currently in the process of improving performance for a Samba 3.3.4 server on FreeBSD 7.0. The samba server works great when mounted from another machine located on the same network but when I try to use it over our corporate VPN (OpenVPN with tap interface) the throughput won't go over 4,5 Mbps. The ping between the samba client and the server is around 20ms. I have used a linux

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have samba configured so that users have their own netlogon.bat file (e.g. %U.bat) and each user has a .bat with their username in the netlogon share. So far I have been unable to get any of the shares that I have defined in the batch file to be mounted when a user logs in. Here is a snapshot of both the netlogon section of my smb.conf file and

I have a perl script that I'd like to use to create windows 9x login scripts at login time but I cannot get the process to work right. I have RedHat 7.3 (actually the k12ltsp v2.1.0 which is a modified RH7.3) set up as a domain controller which is working well. Manually created login scripts run fine on the workstations at login. I'm using a netlogon script I found at

Hello Everyone, Situation: I have been testing Samba-3.07 for its NT4 domain functionality so that I can migrate from Samba-2.2. I had setup the Samba domain and everything was working quite well. I had initially been working with a domain called "TEST". Now that I am finished with my initial testing, I wanted to rename the domain to something I would be able to keep. After changing

Dear Samba-users, I cannot manage to make samba read my logon.script for windows clients where basicaly networkdrive-mapping is done. Samba complaines about not having permission...

Hello, I've tried to make out of my samba 2.0.3 server a logon server. I' ve set domain logons = Yes domain master = No local master =Yes os level = 65 preferred master =Yes but: wins support = No I made a share as recommended [netlogon] and place there a logon.bat. The logon.bat contains net use z: \\servername\public for testing if the logon.bat is excecuted by login to the server.

Forgive the repost, but I've changed the subject line since I haven't seen a reply yet...please help, I don't have much hair left! Hello All, I had been successfully running Samba 2.2.8a on a FreeBSD 4.7 box for a couple years using roaming profiles. The box was functioning as PDC. The hardware was getting old; I needed to migrate to a new server. So, I built a FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE

Beating head on desk again! I have a samba server is running winbind which can access domain. It is working fine and is using domain credentials. I access the samba shares after the user has authenticated against a novell server during the novell logon script. The shares are authenticated with user domain credentials and verified with smbstatus. This works great! If I alternatively use windows

I recently set up a samba PDC 2.2.8 for testing purposes only. Everything runs well enough now. There is one thing I can't seem to get to work. I made a logon.bat logon script for sharing a share called 'databank' on T: and it works correctly, but trying to get the windows mount the home folder too results in no mounting. That is: no databank and no home folder (on T: and Y:). My

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could help me, I have searched for some reason but cannot find any. After migrating from a previous samba-3.0.10 (I think) PDC server to a newer samba-3.0.23c server on Centos5, I have the strange problem that my XP clients no longer map all the drives listed in the logon.bat during logon, however if I run logon.bat manually after I'm logged in, all

Hello, For some time now I have thought that Samba was a piece of cake to setup and thought making it a PDC and WINS server to boot, would not be much harder. Haha, I am finding out I was very wrong. First question: Since logon.bat is being processed by a windows client machine that has no idea what to do with Samba variables, how do you avoid having to create a separate logon script

Hi, all. I know that the Samba people do *not* advise using shares in the ad, but, in the current circumstances, this will have to be done. At least until there is another technical-administrative context. In the very old previous installation (Suse 42, samba 4.4.2), using openLdap, I used logon.bat scripts to map Samba shares to windows client devices ("net use K: \\mydomain\cj /persistent

I have spent most of the past 24 hours reading various samba docs and searching google for help -- but can't find a solution. Suggestions and solutions would be appreciated. I have set up a Linux Box (Samba 3.02) as a PDC with roaming profiles. (I haven't upgraded, because this box is a model for over 100 other boxes in the field). I can add XP users to the domain and their roaming

I have a similar situation and have assigned all users to varying primary groups. It works OK but could be better. I am including an e-mail from the samba list that improves on my login/out scripts. I have not had a chance to try the improvements yet. Good luck. Forwarded From: "Naccarato, Robert" <naccarar@bis.adp.com> > > > I use the following script in the root

Hey, I have a fedora core 1 machine with samba 3 PDC. I switched the password backend ('passdb' ) from 'smbpasswd' to 'tdbsam'. The problem is that my win 98 machine stop mapping my home directory. I swtiched back to 'smbpasswd' and it works fine. 'net time \\server /set /yes' and 'net use p: \\server\apps' work perfectly. My logon.bat contains the

Hi, we have the following problem: we use a samba 2.03 server as PDC and logon server. Every user executes its logon.bat. With 'net use' we map some drives and that's all ok. but we would like to set the PATH Environment-Variable and this is our problem. If we would set it with 'SET PATH=...' only the PATH in this DOS-Box will be changed, but we need the global PATH changed.
