I am using Samba 2.2.7 on a RH 7.3 box. Samba is acting as PDC for 98, 2000, XP clients. User's passwords are stored in /etc/smbpasswd. I want to activate password aging so that users are forced to change their passwords on a regular basis. Is this possible? Martin Stacey IT Support Manager Safcol Australia Pty Ltd

I'm running samba-3.0.2-7.FC1 on a Fedora Core 1 box.

I'm upgrading to a RH 9 box and using the version of Samba that comes with RH 9.

I have setup my Samba server as a WINS server using the wins support = yes parameter. My remote network can see the Samba server at our head office fine. I have also setup the WINS setting on my PC (W2K Pro box) to point to the IP address of my Samba server. When I do a nmblookup -R -U <IP address of WINS server> <name of my PC> on my Samba server I get this reponse; querying pc1

How are file permissions determined under Samba? If I log onto my Linux server (terminal session using Putty) and create a file that file is given the following file permissions (rw- rw- r--). That is correct, because in my home directory I have a .bashrc file that has a umask command that states umask 002. However, when I use Samba to log onto my Linux server and use Word/Excel to create a file

Can someone tell me what this means; [2004/03/30 12:09:56, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe_hnd.c:process_request_pdu(605) process_request_pdu: failed to do schannel processing. Martin Stacey IT Support Manager Safcol Australia Pty Ltd

I just upgraded to a RH 9 box and now offline files and synchronizing isn't working on my XP clients. My XP clients keep getting access denied error messages when their laptops log onto the network. Files are copied from the network to the laptops with no error message and users have no problems viewing their files while disconnected from the network. However, if they change files whilst

I noticed this error message within some of my users log files; rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_query_aliasmem(2626) _samr_query_aliasmem: Not yet implemented. Why does this mean and what do I need to do to stop this error message from appearing. BTW, the users all have XP machines. Martin Stacey IT Support Manager Safcol Australia Pty Ltd

Hi, Does the passdb backend = ldapsam:"ldap://ldap.daa.com.au ldap://yaminon.daa.com.au", smbpasswd syntax actually do proper failover?

The logs said: [2006/01/10 08:55:47, 0] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_open_connection(678) Failed to issue the

Just thought I'd share an experience with you regarding Samba, Win95/98 and encrypted passwords. I set up a RH7 server for one of my clients who has 8 Win95 & 8 Win98 clients. I came across the problem with the 95 passwords in clear & 98 passwords encrypted so I dug around and read the README & FAQ. I was going to use the registry hack on 98 to disable the encrption but the

I just had a peek at the anaconda source for Fedora 21. Apparently you can waive the password strength tests (and the non-ASCII tests) by simply clicking "Done" twice. def _checkPasswordASCII(self, inputcheck): """Set an error message if the password contains non-ASCII characters. Like the password strength check, this check can be bypassed by
