Hello, I can not seem to get smbpsswd to add any users to samba. No matter if I use the CLI, the Webmin module or SWAT I always get this response when trying to add any user [root@matrix1 samba]# smbpasswd -m -a gerard Failed initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user gerard$. Failed to modify password entry for user gerard$ I take it this has somehting to do with PAM & or shadow passwords, & I

Hi, I use wine to run a terminal emulator (NetTerm). It connects to a Linux Server (it was meant to run from windows) that runs a commerce software. This Linux commerce software sends the terminal emulator escape codes to interface with a "ticket" printer attached to a serial port. The reason to go thru all this problem is that the printer has a proprietary, closed source driver for

Hello While searching the archives and googling for : -login script to map drives according to group membership I saw lots of complicated solutions (on-the-fly scripts, group directories) etc. but the following works very well for me: I downloade dthe ifmember.exe from the microsoft website, and stuck it in the netlogon directory (not the scripts directory)

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to use different driver file downloads for different printers on the system? As of what I can see in all doc-files I can only use ONE set of drivers for all added printers? F.x. I have one printer that is handled by CUPS' PPD system, and one printer that uses RAW. So, the first printer (PPD) should have its feed in postscript format from

Can anyone point me to a doc or a script that shows how to generate netlogon script on the fly and supports users having multiple groups? I tried the Perl script referenced at <http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/AdvancedNetworkManagement.html> but I believe it only supports the user being a member of one group. -- Andrew Gaffney

Hi, I made the mistake of doing an rsync of a directory into the wrong destination, so that the destination became a mix of two directories of unrelated files. Top unravel the mess, I could need something like a --delete-existing option. The semantics would be to delete at the destination ONLY those files that exists at the source. I tried to concoct a combination of options that would do

Is there a way to run a script on my samba PDC machine when a user logs in and logs out? Thanks in advance. -- Air conditioners and Computers are the same - they both crash when you open Windows.

Hi! I'm experimenting with SuSE Linux and Samba 2.2.5 as a PDC, so far, everything works perfectly well, aside from that if I store an .exe file on a network mapped drive (from the Samba server) it can't be run? The workstation is a Windows XP Pro SP1, connecting to the Samba running as a PDC with LDAP backend. The machine and user logon works perfectly, but I can't execute .exe

Is it possible to send a pop-up message to all connected Windows stations in a whole domain via one command, or is it necessary to send one message per command to each station? It must be a command line utility since X isn't running on the server. Anders Norrbring

I can't figure out what's wrong with my config, I can see the share \\beata\anders, but not store0 or store1; # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file.

Hi, I have configured a samba PDC with a logon script. The logon script includes dos commands to map a drive letter for different shares. One share has user home directory, one has common folder for all the users and other share is group share. For assigning a drive letter to group share I have used the command "net use g: \\%L\group\%G" but group share drive is not mounting for any of

Hello everybody, we were running into trouble after upgrading our samba PDC to a new hardware (and a new debian release). Before the upgrade we used 3.0.22 on a debian sarge machine without problems. Moving the installation to a new machine with debian etch (amd64, samba 3.0.24-6etch4) worked good at the first look. A closer look shows the following problems: - a domain member server (samba

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris

Hello I want to add Win7 machine to my Samba PDC with WinXP clients. Google tells me I have to add a .V2 to my profiles. The samba log ask about a .v2 share. Can someone explain me the difference of the v2 extension at the profile names and the roaming profile share? Following my settings: smb.conf: [global] logon path = \\%L\nt-profile logon home = \\%L\nt-profile [nt-profile]

I planned using ifmember.exe from Windows 2000 resource kit to map the right drive-mappings to the right shares with logon-scripts. Unfortunately it seems as ifmember simply doesnt report the right groups for the users. Even tho "id user1" shows the right groups; "uid=2082(user1) gid=1002(Group1)roups=1002(Group1),545(Users),1000(Group0)", User is a member of group

Hi! I was thinking, is there a way to use a linux box with Samba running in the DMZ of a firewall and to validate logons from the internal network? I.e. the users workstations are on the protected net on 192.168.111.xx and the Samba PDC resides in the DMZ, running subnet 192.168.222.xx. If it's possible, what ports need to be open?

Well, I wasn't really awake I guess.. It's just a script that calls GhostScript for pdf generation.. But the question still stands, what IS the best quality printer driver to use for GhostScript -> pdf printing? We need both colours and high resolution.. ------------------------ Hiya! Can anybody recommend what the best Windows XP printer driver is to generate pdf documents with
