A question, althought it is not strictly samba pertinent: I have some Win2k server that offers dial-in to local users. Today all stopped working, but the ones using linux ... However these are not sufficient, so i ask here [since it is probable many people have win2k hosts around) - how to , logging in the win2k server with ssh, restart RAS ? Of couse i can use only CLI programs ... at woest ...

Hi all, I'm trying to mygrate my NT4 PDC to a Samba v3rc2 PDC. Everything worked well during accounts migration (vampire). I'm now trying to back-up the shares (homes, profiles, netlogon), in order to fully migrate the accounts. Unfortunately, I'm facing a stupid problem : each home directory (or profile directory) can only be read from its creator, NOT from the Administrator of the

Hello All, I am using Samba + LDAP PDC with all latest updates & versions. I have been using SRVTOOLS.exe to manage the domain in the past because my work mates can use that without needing root access to the server itself. It stopped working some time ago, and it was not bbecause of an update either, I don't know what went wrong or understand this error. When I open USRMGR I get the

I'm using a rather strange config, borne out of neccessity rather than choice at home. My internet 'router' is a Win2000 Pro box running Winroute, and my three Linux boxen (running 7.2/8.0/9.0 RH) are networked thru to the Win box using SNAT on the box I work on (don't ask why - it's just pratical, and I can't afford a hub/switch to do this). In any case, it's a

Perhaps a bit off-topic, but figured this might be a good question to pose to the list before I go off re-inventing the wheel again... Has anyone, or does anyone know of, a way to directly mount or utilize and iso image file as a filesystem? I'd like to use samba to create a series of shares based on ISO images; assuming one can mount an ISO image file one could in theory serve windows

How long does one have to typically wait for an answer to a post? Tomorrow my message will have been up a week, and I've gotten no replies. It was about whether a file, while it was being written to, could subsequently be opened by another client for reading. I used a DVR with chasing play as an example. Didn't seem like that difficult of a question, but maybe it isn't geeky

Thank you for answering. I am testing Samba 3.0.1Pre1 on RH9 . MS Word 97 keeps opening already opened files without sending any warning as it would normally do when accessing W2K servers. Same program , same files behave differently with Samba and W2K. However, I found that Powerpoint is nevertheless able to sense correctly the situation by always giving such warnings - " test.ppt is

Hi all, Is it possible to use a printer attached to a WinXP computer from Linux (Suse) using only console mode, ie. no graphic mode?

I just set a DC with samba 4.1 but the other machine that should syncronize the DNS (using bind) just connect and then hang. on /var/log/samba/log.samba I have: [2015/02/11 20:11:53.161439, 0] ../lib/util/util_runcmd.c:317(samba_runcmd_io_handler) /usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate: ; TSIG error with server: tsig verify failure I looked around but the fix found did not worked or were not for this

Can someone explain what's required to join a linux computer to the windows domain and what the benefits would be? Rick B.

I had a machine using cups and sam,ba, to let access the printers using samba. I Updated from etch 3.0.24 to lenny 3.2.5 and cups from 1.2.7 to 1.3.8 keeping the previous config files Now samba still works for files, but the printers has disappeared ... has someone a smb file with cups printers working to send me as an example ?

Ok, I have played with this some more. Here is my setup. I have a local network 10.0.x.x/255.255.0.0 I have an off site network 192.168.0.x/255.255.255.0 The samba server is also my wins server and has the ip 10.0.0.2 on my local network. This is the only NIC in the Samba server. My firewall/router server shows the following from netstat -r

hello, I'm new to this list. here is my question: I would like to synchronize two computers (say the home one and the job one) using zip drives or similar (cdroms, etc), since modem lines are quite slow and expensive (in Italy). I though I could produce the "signature" of files on home computer, store it on a zip, go to job, run rsync to copy the missing or altered files on

Hi List, slightly OT but i have Xen and Windows running (xen 3.2.0, hvm, win 2k3) on top of a lvm volume. Now i want to delete such a volume but i got the message: $ lvremove /dev/Xen0/Win2kServer Can''t remove open logical volume "Win2kServer" The volume is not in use by any VM, but there is a partition table on it with 8Megs of free space and a ntfs partition. I also got 2

Im having an intermittent problem with samba. Im running samba 3.0.2a on solaris 8 that i downloaded from sunfreeware.com I have my smb.conf setup to get passwords from my active directory server and it usually works fine. I ran a net join command like so to originally join the domain: root# net join -S WIN2KSERVER -w MYDOMAIN.com -U Administrator Password: Joined domain MYDOMAIN. It will run

Can somebody give me a quick education on sync'ing users, passwords and groups between 2 linux servers. Im using Redhat 7.1 as PDC and BDC using Samba. I want to sync mainly /etc/passwd, /etc/smbpasswd, /etc/group to get a consistancy going in the domain... please guide me sync'ing passwords between them ..BOTH WAYS.....if a user changes a password on one computer it gets changed on

Hello, I hope this is the correct place for this mail... I have found that samba-2.2.3a (--with-ldapsam) gives the correct logon home for win2k, but not for win98. Obviously the two systems request the information in a different way. For win98 machines, in lanman.c, the information is taken only from smb.conf, and not from ldap (or other backends). I have attached a small patch that yields
