I have setup a dedicated print server running on RH 8 with Samba 2.2.5-10 and LPRng-3.8.9-6 to service a HP9000 printer. The print queue for this HP9000 gets it print jobs from a Windows server via a script and the queue is set to HOLDALL status. The HOLDALL status is necessary because the script runs overnight to produce the print jobs which can total anywhere from 500 to 12,000 individual print

Hi, I just installed 2 Win2K sp4 workstations on an otherwise working Samba 2.2.8a network and 2 of the 3 printers are showing "Access denied". What's up with that? The other computers that are working just fine are Win98, XP and Win2K NOT sp4. Here is part of the global section: printing = bsd load printers = yes disable spoolss = yes printcap name

Hi list, is it possible to add multiple homedir templates to smb.conf ? I have a running linuxsystem where homefilesets are mounted from different windows-servers to subdirs like: /home/server01/home/USERNAME /home/server02/home/USERNAME /home/server03/home/USERNAME The users come via winbind. In the smb.conf the entry for the homedir: template homedir = /home/%U So how is it possible to

I have created a rxml template and I am sucessfully generating valid xml. However, the file does not have an extention on it. This is creating a problem for one of the applications running on my computer, when referencing the file off the server it requires the .xml file extention. Despite being vaild xml it needs that extention. I am lost at how to solve this problem. I am still working in a

Hi. So, I checked out libvorbis and it seemed pretty OK, but the cmdline subdir didn't compile. I made changes to Makefile.in and added a function or two (does "fill_buffer" live anywhere? I couldn't find it) and eventually got a build that didn't do much. Anyways, I guess I want real CVS access so I can check the changes in, and I'd like to slap the cmdline thing

I'm trying to run No$Zoomer, kind of an addition for GBA/NDS emulator No$GBA, that allows to play on higher screen. According to a report in the AppDB (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=18574) someone seemingly managed to get it working by editing the .ini file. However, and since first time I tried to run it, Zoomer executes but it doesn't recognize the

Is this possible? I searched the archives and did some digging and it seemed like the closest I was going to get was to use pam modules. But, from what I read, that won't work with 2000 or XP because of password encryption. I'd like for my users to be able to map drives to my linux box running samba using their NDS username/passwords, yet I don't want to re-create all of those

Hello all, I'm wondering if samba(TNG?) can offer a solution for keeping NDS in sync with Active Directory? Perhaps, samba would be only be part of a larger solution involving openldap and or other components. Although I've used samba in the past on stand-alone servers, I have am not up to speed on it's ability to plug into an AD environment (act as a DC) so please excuse me if my

I've got problem with Samba3 when I want to connect to eDirectory. The samba could not connect to the local eDirectory server. The Samba and the eDir can be found on the same Linux box which is a SusSe 9.1. The eDir and the Samba are working pretty good but cant see each other. Is it possible to connect from Samba 3 to Novell's eDirectory ? What are the syntaxes to these lines in smb.conf:

Hi, is anybody out there who is using Novell Edir. with samba? I have searched the archive and found some random notes but no real success story. Here is what I have achived so far. Maybe someone can give me some hints. I have tried the samba-nds.schema that comes with the 2.2.7a tar ball. While I was able to import/add it to EDir. it did not work for me, because the "lmPassword"

Hi, We have configured several xen guest OSes on a server running SLES10. The physical server is a Sun 4200 with 3 NICs installed, configured, and working. Each of the xen guest OSes have three virtual nics, configured for RAC, Interconnect, and public IPs as follows; eth0 - public (routable and registered in DNS) eth1 - private (not routable, uses a seperate network subnet for

Aren't Friday's wonderful! I've just been hit up with a request from management to install Samba on our Solaris 8 UNIX servers to share out information to the windows PC's. This wouldn't be an issue if the backend was Windows AD but in our case it's eDirectory. The shares also need to be seamlessly accessible to eDirectory based groups/users without interfering with the

I've been reading about policies and the documentation says to grab poledit.exe from the NT SP6a file. There are many policy settings that are not available via this tool. Isn't there something newer that could be used to create the .pol file needed by samba to implement policies? Or will this only be available with samba4?

Hi all, Can anyone point me in the right direction to apply Group Policies from a Samba 3.0.26 PDC to my Windows XP and Vista clients. I read chapter 26 of the Samba manual (dated April 3 2003) and I was wondering if the NTConfig.POL file in the NETLOGON share is the way to go here? Regards, Joost.

Can netware logins and password authenticate to samba shares? If so is it scalable? We have a about 50000 netware users. How do you set it up. Thanks Greg Turnbull

Hi, I'm a teacher and I have got 20 computers with Windows XP and server Windows SBS 2003 with Active Directory. I use AD to set policy tu WinXP and to authorize users. Is it possible to set up Samba to this instead AD? Can someone help me in this? -- Przemyslaw Adam Smiejek

I currently have a 95% Novell Network network that continues to have constant printing issues. Enough Novell bashing, here lies the problem. I am trying to migrate all of our printers over to a samba print server, but in several of my tests I have come up with problems. I will attach my smb.conf at the end for those of you that wish to see it. I am using lprng as the printing backend because all
