... By my mistake a 2.2.8a-1 running on RH8 was exposed to the Internet. It was cracked in a matter of hours. I noticed it because they've deleted my smbd. :-| I'm ready to reinstall the machine, if there are any logs that anybody is interested into please say it now.

Samba 2.2.8a-1, RH8. ... So, I had to reinstall. Fortunately I had a back-up copy. I've installed everything and then went to back-up and brought back all the stuff from /etc/samba and /var/cache/samba and all /etc/cups and /etc/printcap*. Aparently samba is working corectly: All user/machine accounts are in place winbind OK... It's just that although I've restored the /home/printers

... Since I got no answers to my previous post about "forgotten" printer drivers that is printer drivers that disappear after you reinstall a samba and brig back all .tdb from back-up I said what a hell let's try adding the printer drivers again. You guessed, it didn't worked. After asking me for the printer driver location XP ws returns a message that "Operation could not

I'm aim to set up a file server that is separate from my SAMBA PDC. I've had no problem setting file server up, and joining it to he domain using smbpasswd. Can I use winbind with a SAMBA PDC or is it meant only for Windows NT servers. When creating shares on this file server, I need to allow permissions to various groups and or users. How can I do this. Do I need to set up NIS? Thank

Hi listers. People here are trying to push me into moving the Outlook .psts on a samba share for back-up reasons. I'd like to hear your experience about this: is it feasible in the size of 20 users with 400...800MB each .pst? Any special settings on samba side? Something special that I should pay attention to? Or is just "NO"?

Hi everyone, I've been using nut 2.0.3 for more than a year on a Unitek iZi UPS 525 (which is a rebadged Mustek). Everything worked fine and last week, when pressed by RENEL :-) I ran a battery test which showed the system to have 17min of back-up power (yes, still haven't figured out how to use upssched...) The system used for testing was an old PIII/500MHz/512KB cache, 256MB RAM (3 x

Hi Arjen, I've just read the FAQ and got to the question: "Q: How can I make upsmon shut down my system after some fixed interval?" Well it looked like the question was there for me. :-) You say: Ask yourself this: why buy a nice big UPS with the matching battery and corresponding runtime and then shutdown early? If anything, I'd rather have a few more minutes running on

Hi everyone, Here I am with my second attempt to persuade upssched to do things; for some reasons it just won't! Or if it runs, it never runs the script.

Here are the main files: /etc/sysconfig/ups SERVER=yes MODEL=apcsmart DEVICE=/dev/ttyS0

The directories are owned by a specific user and there is also a group associated with the directory. I was expecting that any new documents created would have the same user and owner as the
