Hi, I am trying to prepare downloadable printer drivers for Windows-Clients with Samba 3.0.0-final. Everything worked fine so far. But I found no way to add the printer driver files to the samba database. The method using the Add Printer Wizard in W2k did not work for me. This is what I tried: linux4:/# rpcclient -U'root%secret' -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86"

Hello! I tried to run a samba3 server as pdc for windowsXP clients with ldap backend and kerberos authentication. I stuck with these two possibilities: 1. Samba is pdc, winxp is domain-member, users are autheticated against smbpasswords within ldapsam. If the kerberos password of the korresponding principal has the same password, the users get a ticket from the kdc after windows logon. But I

Dear all! Since several days I'm trying to get Samba's unix password sync to work for me, but I still have problems.

Hi group, I can't seem to get passwd change from windows to work. I am running samba 3.0.20-3.1.20060mdk installed from rpms on Mandriva 2006; the clients are windows XP sp2. When I try to change passwd from windows I get "You do not have permission to change your password". What am I doing wrong? My global smb.conf is below. >From log.smbd I think this error pertains to

Hello, I am running Samba 2.2.3a-6 on a Debian(testing) machine. It is running as a PDC for 15 Win2K(SP2/3) systems. Everything runs beautifully except the users cannot change their passwds. When a user CTRL-ALT-DEL and change passwd they ultimately get a messages stating that the old passwd is incorrect.... If I log into a shell as a user on the system and invoke smbpasswd, It goes through all

When I run this command I am not prompted for a password, I just get the below error. # smbclient -U root //zmail/homes Error connecting to 10.0.0.14 (Connection refused) Connection to zmail failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED) --- Now for the back story: CentOS v5.2 with Samba v3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 and Zimbra 5.0.11_GA on x86_64 hardware.

Hi all!! I'd set up my samba 2.2.7 to auth with "security=domain" mode, but my clients cannot auth successfully never because the samba server cannot "talk" correctly with my PDC(w2k adv. Server). In the computer manager event, I see authentication request but with empty usernames......so the PDC reject the authentication request. Is this a know

I am trying to support our network while the 'IT' guy is on vacation. I have set up samba before, but it has been a few years so I'm very rusty. The problem is a logon failure for a new user.

I've been running the same configuration for a couple of years now, and since I've upgraded to Office 2007, MS Word and MS Excel files save to my samba shares as -r-------- even when they are opened as being chmod 777. Files I create/edit using other editors or windows explorer are put onto the share with the correct permissions. My conf looks like this: [global] workgroup = WG

Hello all, I am running 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS and cannot get user passwords to change while unix password sync = yes. Setting it to no works, but I need it on.

At one site I support, I have just recently put a policy file on their server to try and make some stuff easier to manage. Only problem is Windows is not even trying to load it. I watched the traffic in Wireshark, and there's no request for the ntconfig.pol file at all. And of course nothing from it is being applied. I had read that this can happen if someone has set the policy refresh

I'm seeing very long delays the first time winbind accesses the network. See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=496569 I've tried lots of things, down to stripping the config to a bare minimum for ADS security and even killing ipv6 support on the box. Nothing has resolved this. Does anyone see anything obviously wrong with this configuration that might cause a very long

In the the samba logs I see this error: can't connect to service "USERNAME" this is the GLOBAL
