Hello Samba users, I'm trying to configure my samba server as a PDC for some Win2k machines. I'm running Red Hat 8.0 and samba-3.0.0rc4.

At a new account where they run Samba 3.0.14a on a Debian server I'm seeing log files being created for both the hostname and the IP address. The log files, however, are not identical. But the timestamps are close. None of my installations have this quirk. If the hostname is resolvable the log is made using it, if not resolvable then the log is made with the IP address but not both. Any

Hello All, I am having a very strange problem with samba 3.0.23c. I upgraded everything from 3.0.9 and I am able to smbclient to the samba 3.0.23c PDC with the administrator user just fine.

Hi, We have a major problem using Samba to access NFS mounted directories. The directory in question is on a Snap server running OS 3, and Samba is running on a new Sun V250 running Solaris 9; the NFS directory is mounted using udp. The problems occur when trying to load a file, which causes the samba process to crash. Another process starts automatically, crashes and so forth. However, the

Greetings, I've been pulling my hair out on this problem for several days and I'm not really any closer to a solution. I hope someone out there can help me.

At the unix level LDAP connectivity is configured and working properly for

When I attempt to authenticate a user from another domain, I am seeing some strange issues. My winbindd.log shows that I am indeed already trusting the other domain. (I am a member of the na.uis.unisys.com domain.) However, when I try to gain access to a share where the username EU\INBLR-AUTH1 has access, I get prompted for a username and password over and over. Obviously, it can't

Specifics samba-3.0.0beta1-1.i386.rpm on RedHat 9 and smbpasswd authentication, the machine is the PDC and security is set for user. The machine account was setup on the fly and it appears in passwd, shadow, and smbpasswd files as it should. However it seemed to take a very long time to join the domain, about 1-1/2 minutes.

I've been trying to have Samba 3.0.1 work as a primary domain controller using LDAP as the authentication mechanism. However I am unable to get any of my Windows XP Pro machine join the domain.

I am trying to upgrade our fully functional Samba domain from v3.0.2 to v3.0.7 or v3.0.8. My question is, do I have to upgrade every server in the domain in order for it to work or should I be able to upgrade one server at a time, test it, and move on to the next server? Or should I upgrade the domain controller first, then upgrade the member servers one at a time? I've tried to upgrade
