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

Hi All, After connecting a HP DeskJet 950C printer to my NT Server and configuring it as a share printer, I used samba and printconf to connect to it. I setup the printer in printconf as a Samba (SMB) Printer/Windows Printer (SMB) Share After restarting the lpd daemon, I can print successfully the ASCII test page and other linux files, e.g. smb.conf, /etc/fstab, etc. My problem is that I am unable

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

I have a stock Mandrake 8.1 server running with Samba 2.2.2.

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

I want to share my linux printer with my windows laptop. The printer is attached to box with redhat 7.2 and samba-2.2.1a-4. The laptop runs windows 98 and they are connected by a netgear RP114 router. I have been following DIAGNOSIS.txt.

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

I've got a strange problem with certain Active Directory user accounts that are members of more than 32 groups. It seems that Samba (or winbind?) completely ignores extended groups if it crosses over 32 groups. This seems to be a Samba specific issue; * When the AD user is logs in via ssh, it can perform writes to the resource; the same user browsing via Samba will get an "Access

Hi All, I'm trying to migrate our Samba PDC server to a new machine on the local net with a completely new domain, but when I try to join this domain on a Win2k machine it gives error 'invalid domain or can't be located' I have no problem on my mac using DAVE. and i can see the new domain in the browse list. Here is my configuration. Any help would be great. Matt # Global

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 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

We are running the samba server on RH9 and use win98 and 2000 clients. We ran into two problems up to now, both related to printing. We have two win98 machines with printers (in two parts of the building). We want to have all the print jobs from other machines to go through the server before they are printed on these machines. First, we cannot not force the Win2000 machine to send anyting but the

Hello, So I just setup samba and swat on one machine here in my office. I can see the work group that this machine has created from all my windows based machines and I can see my windows domain from the linux box. This made me happy since I am a nubie to this Linux stuff. But that's where the joy stopped. When I double click on the linux box from my windows box network places I get an
