Question about changing file permissions in Windows XP when running samba as a PDC. If you hit Properties and go to the security tab, instead of listing the proper group/user names it lists the full SID. Is there a way to get Windows XP to map these to the proper user/group names? I am using LDAP as a backend with Samba. Thanks. -- James

Hello all.... I need help and I'm just about at my wits end. First let me state that I can not give logfiles in email since the Samba servers are on the secure side of my world and contain sensitive information. If by my stating my problem, I am hoping that someone will point me in certain directions that I have not tried. We have two samba servers on our site. Both are running Samba 3.0.0.

I have a Samba 3 server that is trying to sync with itself. I have wins support = yes in the samba configuration file and there are no other WINS servers on the network.

We have a samba server acting as a PDC for approx 100 Windows 2000 workstations, and it has been doing so very well for the last year. We just purchased some XP Pro machines, and using the registry edit that's listed in the docs, we were able to get them on to the domain. The issue is that the very first time they try to view any drives mapped to the Samba server, it hangs for a good 30-40

Hi all, I wanted to give an update on this as I know this MS Hotfix is critical and must be applied to protect against the (latest) Microsoft worm. I think I've found the problem in the code, and am currently testing a fix for this (not in the release to others to test stage yet). As soon as I'm reasonably confident I'll put a patch out there for others to test, and we'll

Hey guys, I configured Samba do be the domain controller for my network and to share folders. the folder sharing works great. The problem is that the domain function does not work at all.

Thank you Paul for your response. Perhaps I can give a bit more info: RS/6000 H50 w/AIX 4.3.2 running Samba 2.0.5a PIII-450 NT4sp4 w/128MB I indicated yesterday that a race condition appeared to be happening. I later remembered that I turned on level2 oplocks on two read only shares as the last tunings we did before this began to happen. I got the info from the Speed.txt document in hopes of

I know in 2.0.5a, level2 oplocks were broken. Can I safely use them in 2.0.6? I recall getting a performance increase when using them. Bill -- /------------------------------------------------------\ | | | William E. Jojo, Jr. | | | | Senior
