Hi, I have one NT4 PDC that needs to be migrated to Samba-PDC. No Active Directory. Just users, groups, windows shares... the works. I'm seeing that Samba-3.x is "very PDC-oriented". I like that. But, so far, Samba-3 is still in beta/pre-release versions and in my "stock" distribution, Samba is on 2.2.7a version (2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix). Should I wait for Samba-3?

Hi, I recently posted a success story (Steel Panthers). Well, now it's not working :( I updated the WINE version to 20010630 (from 20010510) and the XFree86 version 4.10 (from 4.03). Well, now it says that I have no sound (one application says that maybe will not work because there's no soundcard). And the game does not woork anymore (it uses DirectSraw, AFAIK, to paint a 800x600

Can I get Wine for Suse 7.0, if so where from? Thanks Alex

Hi list, I have installed Samba 2.2-8a on a linux box running RH 9 with LDAP backend as the account database. I have configured the system to function as PDC. When I try to join the domain from any Win2K machine, I get the following error: The following occured validating the name "mydomain". This condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. The specified domain either doesn't

Greetings to all. I am currently a bit of a newbie in regards using Linux and Samba. I have worked for several years in the IT/digital divide sector of the nonprofit world (particularly in regards to utilizing used and refurbished hardware). I am have a couple of CompTIA certs. (A+ and N+) and some experience administering Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Anyway to my question.... I am

I am so stoked I just had to share this with y'all. I just "SEAMLESSLY" migrated all of my machines and users over to my new Gentoo Linux Server. I even kept the same: domain name and old PDC NetBios name. The trickiest part was getting all of the users to keep their same profile, but I managed that by cloning the RID and Lanman/NT hashes for the user accounts. Free at last! #

Dear all, I have installed Samba (3.6.6) on Debian wheezy and configured it to authenticate against LDAP (encrypted passwords, no lanman). I want simple shares with user security. I have configured PAM/NSS from the same LDAP and it works fine. WinXP works fine, smbclient works fine, but Windows 7 only works for SOME passwords. Some work, some do not. Samba is configured with restricted LDAP

Hello, I have desperately tried to make samba able to share the printer with a Win98SE client. First I tried cupsaddsmb, but that failed. Then I walked step by step through the installation manually as explained in the documentation, and everything stopped on this point: rpcclient -Uroot%xxxx -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86"\

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello folks I played a lot with Xen last days, isnt it possible to access PCI devices which are hidden from dom0?

Another question: Im using hvmloader but many pages also talk about the vmxloader, was it prior the hvmloader coz it doesnt exist anymore? cheers - -- Georg

There appear to be significant hurdles to migrating from a Microsoft to Samba PDC environment, something which I've been trying to do now for many months. The difficulties arise in moving user's accounts over to Samba 1. Local profiles. It does not seem to be possible to move from an NT4 PDC to a Samba PDC while retaining local profiles. NT4/W2k machines consider logons to the Samba PDC

Hi I've been trying to finally switch off our NT4 PDC over the last few months and transfer PDC duties to our Samba file server. Although I have no difficulty in getting the Samba box to authenticate users as the PDC, I have never been able to migrate the user's settings over. As far as the clients (NT4 and W2K) are concerned, users effectively start with a "clean slate" i.e.

Hello Hopefully some developer will see this too. I''ve problems using set_data method for example with wxruby 1.9.7/ruby 1.8.6 on mswin32. It always crashes: ..../classes/bitmap.rb:17: [BUG] segmentation fault On my Linux it works fine (thats no suprise of course). Probably somebody has a clue - I exported this raw data also with get_data, I guess this should be platform independent

This weekend, we're replacing a customer's Windows 2003 server with a Samba box. They lost their Windows media and we can't reset the administrator password, so we can't even login to the server to examine it. The best we can do is to boot Knoppix and copy the filesystem onto an external USB drive, to recover their files. We're not sure how we will recover their Exchange mail

Hi Victor, > What does the Ada front-end declare malloc as? I don't really want to tell you because a correct solution should work no matter what malloc is defined to be :) What I mean by "work" is that if malloc has the standard prototype then you perform transforms on it, and otherwise you should probably just ignore it. That said, Ada outputs malloc as: i32 @malloc(i32)

recently, netect / bindview posted a review of the syskey system and how the RC4 cypher stream was reset each time. standard RC4 attack analysis shows that XORing two obfuscated passwords together results in the XOR cypher stream dropping out, and you have the two XORed password. further attack analysis can decrypt the passwords. i am looking to implement an equivalent mechanism to SYSKEY,

Hi, I want to switch from our Windows NT server ( which works as our PDC ) to Linux - Samba. Could you advice a step-by-step guide about this process, or is that possible, at all? Can I use Samba as a BDC, convert the user DB and than promote it to PDC? Thanks in advance! Regards; Istvan

Hello all, Yesterday I moved using the mv command in Redhat 7.2 ext3 file system to move to /tmp my /mnt/win98/"My Pictures" directory to tmp. The command executed normally, and I actually verified that the subdir was created in /tmp and the files were there in /tmp/"My Pictures" I was doing this to temporarily free space on my vfat windows 98 partition. When I went
