Hey Everyone... I'm hoping this is an easy one. I am using the ntlogon scripts that come with the samba examples (ntlogon.py and ntlogon.conf). It's working fine, except for one thing. I'm trying to set entries up for the groups "Domain Admins" or other groups with spaces in the name. The example that comes with it shows ... [Group-admins] I tried the following...

Hello all, we're currently having problems with Windows XP machines that have *very* long file access times for files that are located on our linux-based samba server (samba 2.2.5 / linux 2.4.18). This happens with all kinds of files, with all kinds of programs, including Office97, text editors, develoment environments, etc. Sometimes - the incidents itself seems to be random and is not

Hi, Here is my situation. I share several directories as public, and some other that must be read-write but with authentication (it does not matter is the client supplies the username or not, although it would be nice, but the password is essential as not everybody must have write permission). So what i first did was use the server with "security=user". WindowsXp does not see my shares

Hi, File server - samba 2.2.12 serving win95 and winXP systems. Win95 systems see network appropriately. WinXP systems can see the files when I do run > \\servername\filefolder\ but NOT when I go into my network places...

Is it possible to have a windows 2000 server in AD mode, with a samba server as a domain member, and have the roaming profiles and netlogon stuff all happen on the samba server? So: W2ksrv as ADC.

Good day everyone and sorry to add to the traffic with one more (possibly stupid) question. I have the following problem which I could reproduce with both Samba 2.2.7 and 2.2.8 and with about 5 clients. I install WindowxXP Pro (w/SP1), I modify "RequireSignOrSeal=0", I join the domain (using a 'root' account that is present in smbpasswd and whose password I know) -- and

I have samba 2.2.7 running on a RedHat Linux 7.3 system that is being used as a PDC and a file server for a group of Windows 2k and Windows XP Pro computers. I am having a problem with the roaming profiles working on both the 2k and XP machines. The profiles seem to load fine when you log on, but when you log off it will only copy the ntuser.dat file and then a few more files (seems to go to

Dear Samba team. I have hybrid network with MSDOS / Win9x(ME) / Win2k/XP(NT) computers at home. I'm using Samba as PDC. W9x/me clients works fine as so as with roving profiles, but I'm experiencing problems with w2k, NT4/XP just not test because i'm testing on my box at home and when it'll work fine then I'll go to clients from which smaller part has XPs installed on PC.

Greetings. We are seeing an intermittent problem with Samba on our RedHat 8.0 file server (also seen with RedHat 7.3 prior to the upgrade to 8.0). Normally, a Windows XP machine can connect to the file server's shares and work on them. However, sometimes after being up for a while, connections from the XP machine to the file server no longer work. In particular, on the XP side, the following

Hi all, I'm thoroughly stumped. I have a network of Windows 2k and Windows XP Professional machines working off of Samba served home directories. Everything works. Sign-ons are relatively quick, no odd errors in the samba logs or on the Windows boxes, and all the configuration seems to work fine wrt all functions.
