similar to: 2 issues using SAMBA as a print server

Hi, We have about 2 dozen Mac OS9 computers running Dave 2.5.3 to access smb resources. Our print server, running Samba 2.2.7 (w/domain authentication), has no user accounts. PCs access the printers and print just fine, but the Macs using Dave get an authentication error of invalid user/password. They can access resources on the win2003 PDC. Any idea what's going on here specific to the

The source code seems to compile fine but when I try to join the NT4 domain I get a broken pipe error and it stops. The command I am using is smbpasswd -j (whatever) -r ( whatever) -U ( whatever). I am using gcc version 2.95 and I think I have all the other libraries needed but not sure. Using the same software on a Solaris 2.7 it works fine. Philip Clark C4I Analyst CSC MARCORSYSCOM

Hi I am trying to setup a Domain controller on my home network for testing and I am running into a bit of a problem. Everytime I try to authenticate to the domain I get refused. I have completely read the domain controller how-to that is supplied with Samba 2.28. I follow all of the directions and still nothing. When I attempt to authenticate though it tells me that I don't have the right

Hi ! I use Samba with OpenLDAP. The Samba users information are keept in LDAP. I'd like to keep the login scripts in LDAP. Something knows how can I do this ? And how Samba would read the login scripts in LDAP and not in netlogon directory ? Thanks, Bruno Stella PS: Sorry by my English :-)

Using winbind for authentication through PDC. Problem: Some users do not get access to the samba share and some do. When I do "wbinfo -u" the users who cannot access show up but when I do "getent passwd", they are not there.

Make sure the XP box's firewall is disabled for the network connection you're using to connect to the samba server (advanced properties of the network connection). ________________________________________________________________________ > From: Francesc Guasch <frankie@etsetb.upc.es> > To: G?mes G?za <geza@kzsdabas.sulinet.hu> > Cc: samba@samba.org > Subject: Re:

Hi, does Samba use localhost as WINS-Server, if only wins support = yes is set? Regards, Marc Hansen

Hi all I am attempting to install winbind on a Redhat 9 machine with an NT4 PDC. The winbind version is samba-2.2.7a-7.9.0 as a stock RH install. I have followed the install instructions on the man page and I still get the errors shown below. I have searched google for the STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW (0x80000005)error and the plaintext password authentication failed error but nothing I've found

I compiled and installed the latest samba 3.0.0rc1. I see that the binary executable was placed in the default location of /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd. However, I cannot located the default smb.conf file. I was expecting that the 'make install' script would have copied this file somewhere onto my system. Where is the default 'smb.conf' file located?

Hi there! I once had the problem of not being able to log on to the domain after changing the name of my Samba server as described in the documentation. But it was only in a test environment. Now I have to change the name of a Samba PDC in a real environment and I am not sure what to do to avoid this problem In the docs for Samba 2.2 it says that one should restore the file

Is there a way that I can dynamically add a share point to the smb.conf file and not be forced to kill the smbd daemon and restart in order for it to be visible? Or is this such a simple thing I'm blind and can't see it in any FAQ I read? :-) Thanks! Ryan

Hello all. When I use outlook express and try see the printer, it says "print$ on Merlin - Paused", and I can't unpause it, I get: "You do hot have permission to modify the settings for this printer. If you need to change the settings, contact your network administrator." Merlin is the name of our samba server. Also, when I try click on properties, nothing happens

Hi, I set up Samaba 2.2.7 on a RedHat 9 box to act as a print server. The Samba server is a member of the domain and will be sharing about a dozen printers. I am using lprng in conjunction with ifhp in order to do charge-back print accounting. But here's the glitch: the server is not hosting any file shares and basically has only a couple of local accounts. The result is that when domain

All, I have the following in my smb.comf for printing commands... # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to # specifically define each individual printer [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no print ok = yes print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -P%p lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j

Hi, I'm getting near a thousand error messages a day on only one of my two samba servers that both participate in the same domain: [2004/02/16 09:17:52, 0] rpc_client/cli_trust.c:change_trust_account_password(248) 2004/02/16 09:17:52 : change_trust_account_password: Failed to change password for domain ITS.

Hi, I successfully setup printing on my FreeBSD box using Samba with apsfilter and lprng. However, I have encountered two issues: 1) Cannot print multiple copies of documents from my windows box (e.g. notepad). Only the first copy is printed and the rest don't get printed. 2) My spool directory is getting filled up and I would like the job removed after the print job is finished I've

Good Afternoon, We recently added encrypted smb passwords to our site. I just tried to add a printer to samba and it will not work. I tried to connect to \\sambahost\printer and it will not connect. All the older printers still work. I just wonder if there is an extra step I need to perform now when I add printers? Thanks for your time, Bill -- William M. Fennell Network Administrator

Hi, I've got a messages.tdb file that's currently 2.5GB in size. Is there a way to trim it down (and preferably keep it trimmed)? Can I simply delete it or zero its length by copying /dev/null to it? I'm need of an answer before I end up with a full file system. Thanks, Rob -- Rob Tanner UNIX Services Manager Linfield College, McMinnville OR

Hi, Now that we have successfully moved a first department share on to our mega SAMBA server, we're in the 20% of the old 80/20 rule. Our problem has to do with group permissions within the extended acl. We have implemented winbind along with the ADS security mode. This means that a user isn't just "jdoe", but is "MYDOMAIN\jdoe". We are using the extended ACL

I am having a bit of difficulty implementing hiera-gpg; particularly with accomplishing the deencryption in my manifests. Can anyone either provide a simple example or point me to a good resource?
