Hello everybody! I finally managed to set up a Samba 3.0.1 PDC that ran perfectly in the test-environment. Problems arose, when I installed it in a real bureau network. On a prepared w2k client that was already a domain member one could log on to the domain with the administrator's account, but trying to add other w2k clients failed with error msgs like: "Domain controller not

Hi I'm sure this must have come up before - if so I apologise. I have googled, read HOWTOs FAQ and numerous personal accounts on how to configure samba as a PDC but to no avail - neither w2k nor XP will join the domain.

Hello everybody! Obviously Samba as a PDC and Fileserver for w2k clients is not as easy as I first thought. Soon after setup and integration in a network a problem with the shares and MS Word appeared. Any time a file is opened with M$ Word directly from a share and edited it can't be saved.

Hi Alexander, The kind of firewall i have uses the basic iptables which came with the installation CDs of linux-SuSE. I installed SuSE 8.1 which has a firewall that has to be activated.

Hi all, hope this has not been asked and answered, I can not seem to set the read-only flag when I right click on a file and select properties from in Windows XP.

Hi, I have been trying to use samba for a while as a way to have an identical desktop/startmenu/profile/favourites/etc on multiple PCs. Samba is setup as the PDC and I can join the domain and login.
