I have upgraded recently from alpha22 to rc1. While trying to access printer properties from XP, i'm getting error "Runtime Error! program: C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe abnormal program termintation". Printing is not possible as well. This error is reproducable from any WinXP computer on network on any shared by samba printer. Printers are HPLJ2100, drivers are latest PCL6 downloaded

Appologies for double posting this. I managed to add it to the end of an old thread instead of starting a new one, anyone recommend a mail client that shows threads? :) Hi, I'm trying to run 2 domains from the one server. I've got my 2 config files and both servers run, bound to the correct interface if started normally. The problem I have occurs when I try to start both at once.

Hi there, I am facing some file locking problem with samba. Below are the environment : OS : Fedora Core 1 Samba version : 3.0.0-15 I have used security = share, oplocks =no, level2 oplocks=no, locking = yes, strict locking = yes. The detail of the smb.conf can be provided. The situation is like this : When I use openoffice (in a windows 2000 server machine) to access the file in the share

Hi! I've been trying to find a solution to a printer problem. All I found is a message posted to this list about a year ago, which describes about the same problem (the message is in the end of this mail). So, each time I try to print from windows 2000 or XP I get this error message: Microsoft Visuall C++ Runtime Llibrary Program: C:...Winword.exe Abnormal program termination I have three

I'm trying to get Samba on AIX 5.1 to work in appliance-like mode. I would like NT domain users to get automatically and persistently mapped to AIX/Unix users. This stuff seemed to work fine without much effort on Solaris 9, but AIX is a different story, and I'm new to AIX as well. AIX 5.1 doesn't use nss so winbind, in its current form, can't work. I saw a post from January

Recently i've moved to samba 3.0 beta1 and noticed, that drivers for shared printers couldn't be uploaded from WindowsXP GUI any more. After copying files to \\smbserver\print$\W32X86 folders it says something like "Unable to install HP LaserJet 2100 PCL6, Windows2000 or XP, Intel driver. Operation could not be completed". It works OK on samba3.0alpha20, but doesn't work

Hello there, I'm quite new to software distribution, so I would like to ask you a question. ;-) Is it posible to install software without logging on as administrator on every machine? If yes, how does it work? Via a Windows service? Via a script that is being run as admin even if a normal user logs on? Thanks! Florian

Hi folks, I have Samba 3.0.10 with SuSE 9.1 running and a problem with the recycler feature of Samba. Following setup: - User A deletes file F1 in directory D - Samba produces file .recycler/D/F1 - D has permissions -rwx------, F1 has permissions -rwxrw-r-- (owner A) - User B deletes file F2 in directory D - F2 doesn't show up in .recycler/D So all files User B deletes in directory D are

Hello, I am trying to migrate an NT domain from an NT PDC to a samba3.0 PDC without disrupting users or requiring them to change passwords, etc. The complication is that there are NT fileservers in the domain already, so it's important that the users be transferred to the samba machine with SID's and RID's intact (so they can access these shares with the same permissions).

s there is trick to fully copying an existing local profile over to your new domain profile after you join the Samba domain? I tried the profile copy under System Properties, on the advanced tab and although it completed, I log on and MS office wants to load files from the CD and my start menu seems to be missing the entire left side column. When I look at the size and number of files my

Hi, I had a simple domain under samba 3.5, but because of our company's complex structure, management made a call to move to win2k8 infrastructure. And my task is to do this migration seamlessly as possible. My plan was to upgrade to samba4, then to add win2008 DC, transfer FSMO roles, then demote samba server and shut it down. However, i run into some troubles i couldn't solve... I

Hi, We have a Samba3.0Beta1-LDAP acting as PDC for about 170 computers, since 2 weeks everything works perfectly but since yesterday every computers are unable to connect to the PDC. The following message appears on client side : The session setup from the computer CJEREV01 failed to authenticate. The name(s) of the account(s) referenced in the security database is CJEREV01$. The following

Preamble: I was reading in the OpenLDAP faq-o-matic that as of 2.1, LDAP clients (or specifically the LDAP client libraries) need to know how to find the certificate when connecting via SSL or TLS. As of 3.0, I've been getting a Samba internal error when setting ldap ssl = start tls in the smb.conf file. testparm checks out ok (My samba server is configured as a Role_Domain_PDC server). This

Hello, I've been using samba-3alpha22 as a PDC authenticating against LDAP. I am trying to add NT Groups using the smbgroupedit utility. It seems to me that smbgroupedit always looks in /etc/group and does not take into account the ldap configuration options specified in smb.conf. The relevant ldap entries are: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ebola/ ldap suffix="dc=datasoft,

I am having trouble upgrading my installation of Samba. My setup is: - Debian Woody x86 - Samba 3.0.0rc2 (upgrading from alpha22) - Samba acting as a PDC - Samba accounts and Posix accounts in an LDAP directory (OpenLDAP from Debian) I have successfully compiled and installed the new version. I have extracted all users from the LDAP tree and converted them to the new schema using the perl

I have been trying to get an XP machine to logon to a samba (2.2.4-3) installation for the past week. I am using local logons for the samba server and having it prompt me for a username and password (silly I know) when I access the samba box. I just kept getting a logon dialog box back with the "domain\username and the password" back. I searched for a solution and found the registry

I just sent this . but realized i sent it from the wrong email addy . want to make sure it gets thru to the list . so i'm resending . i apologize if both copies make it thru.

I finally got Samba-3.0beta1 as PDC with LDAP backend. However, I need to specify: passdb backend = ldapsam smbpasswd:smbpasswd guest and have the root account's exists in smbpasswd file. I still could not get a uid=root entry in LDAP to allow client workstation to join the domain. When in samba-2.2.8a I could use a fake rid=506 with uidNumber=0 entry in LDAP (as a SambaAccount) and it
