I have profile problem ito roaming profiles from my samba dc not loading when you log onto w2k terminal server. I reloaded one of the servers, installed sp4 and installed ms office 2000 using the termsrvr.mst file. When a

I've been running verious version of samba 2.2.x up to last night. I now converted all my server so 3.0 with ldapsam. All my w2k roaming profiles now refuse to load, complaining about not being able to load various files in the profile dir containing special chars. Things like Sendto\3>> floppy... or 3?floppy or 3||!!|floppy is displayed where it should be 3<ascii character for

I Have my users organised in 1: Whole Company, 2: Department, 3: User I need a logon script that executes certain comments for all users, certain commands per department and certain comments per user. For user andre in department sales it would thus execute all.cmd, sales.cmd and andre.cmd Is this possible? (I'm using samba 3.0 as DC with LDAP) Andr? de Koning IT Manager Softline VIP

Is there any way to make samba use whatever the default charset was on samba 2.2.x (like 2.2.3?). I've just upgraded to samba 3 and just about every second file displays incorrectly on my windows clients and most of them refuse to open because of this. THis is causing absolute chaos to the point where I (an avid windows hater) am starting to look at reload all the servers in question with

I upgraded to samba 3.0 recently. I have a lot of shares containing excel workbooks that need to be rea only for certain people and writable by others. If I try and open any one that is resctricted to read only, whether by samba "read list" etc. of using linux ext permissions windows compalins that the file could not be found, check the spelling of the filaname blah blah ... No errors

I upgraded one of my samba boxes to 2.2.8a after all kinds of problems with roaming profiles not loading corrently. Everybody can now log in (as log as the w2k machine has sp3 or newer) but I still get the following error: Cannot start microsoft outlook. This happens on w2k prof and on my w2k terminal servers. I could fix the workstations by adding their user account to the local

I've got a pretty large lan at the moment and we are moving into a new office building next week. I'm looking at splitting the lan into seperate networks. At this stage I have one samba DC that does netlogon, roaming profiles etc for all clients. I'm not using LDAP with samba and won't be able to too soon as the change would be major. I have a ldap server used for qmail /

I want to setup a linux box with samba as a file and print server for a LAN of 20 NT 4.0 SP3 workstations. I want the home direcotories to be on the server the clients to have roaming profiles. For this, do I have to make the linux box a domain controller? I want to avoid it if I can, because the domain control code in not on the production releases. I don't want to setup an NT server either.

I'm running a NT4.0 Terminal Server with 50+ peopleon it. All the users' home directories / data etc. is located on a samba server (2.2.1a) on a RedHat7.1 box. All the users on the server are shown in samba under the same connection as they're all on the same machine... this means samba only runs one copy of smb for all these users. Everything seems to be working / set up fine but

On NT4 terminal server it is possible to change a registry setting to make it create one connection to samba per user .... I know there has been a lot of discussion around this but I can't find a definative answer in any of the posts: How do you do this with 2000? The fact that it only runs one smb process is causing serious problems on my samba server. Anybody? Andre -------------- next

Hello, I would like to ask you if its possible to run Samba on an other port than 137-139? I tried once to edit the "/etc/services" File. The lines: ... netbios-ns 137/tcp netbios-ns 137/udp netbios-dgm 138/tcp netbios-dgm 138/udp netbios-ssn 139/tcp netbios-ssn 139/udp ...

I am trying to setup samba so that I can authenticate users from a single server, but use multiple file servers to server the home directories and user profiles. How would I go about doing this? Rob

Hello, it is likely that I will have to analyze a rather sizeable dataset: 60000 records, 10 to 15 variables. I will have to make descriptive statistics, and estimate linear models, glm's and maybe Cox proportional hazard model with time varying covariates. In theory, this is possible in R, but I would like to get some feedback on the equipment I should get for this. At this moment, I have a

Hello, I am not very familiar with regular expressions and escaping. I need to replace the %-signs in a character vector with elements as "income 0%-33%# to be replaced by "income 0\%-33\%" (for later use in LaTeX). Using gsub("%","\\%","income 0%-33%") does not give the desired result. However, gsub("%","\\\\%","income

I'm finding our employees' roaming profiles are not being updated. They were initially created correctly, they copy down onto a new machine, but updates are not put back onto the server. I've also noticed that smbstatus does not show any open dat files, such as ntuser.dat. I would have assumed that these files would have been held open while the client was connected. Employees can

Hi I'm presently installing 2.2.8a on Mandrake 9.1 I'm a newbie to Linux as well as Samba, so it's been fun... When I first installed Linux I installed Samba from the discs (2.2.7a), but on reading up on the subject it became clear that I should give installing the source a go. My problem is this - I don't think I have rerouted all of the paths to usr/local/samba from what

Is it possible to trigger a service restart without always forcing that service to be running? We shutdown mysql for about 30min every day to do backups, and I don''t want puppet to start mysql during this window. So I''ve removed ensure => "running" from the mysql service. But now notify => Service[mysql] doesn''t restart mysql. Is it possible to tell

Has anyone out there successfully set up their * box to terminate their VONAGE calls? I (and I am sure lots of others) would love to hear how you did it. I'd like to be able to get rid of the extra hardware I have hanging around here and use the ASTERISK machine to handle the SIP termination instead of needing to have a Linksys modem (w/phone) and an additional X100P card. Thanks.

Hello, I have estimated a survival model with six strata: >model.b <- survfit(Surv(time=start.tijd,time2=eind.tijd2,event=va)~strata(product.code) , data=wu.wide) I would like to save the output of >print(model.b,print.n="records",show.rmean=FALSE) in a dataframe so that I can export it later. How do I do this? Note that summary(model.b) gives an error: Error in
