If anyone has Samba setup to run as a PDC with Solaris 8 or 9 could you drop me a line? I have a few questions I would like ask. Our shop is looking at trying to implement this option with our SMB master. I didnt want to clutter up the list with more than one request. -- Thank you Todd Johnson ============================================== = Steven ?Todd? Johnson = =

Samba PDC is up and running. We are not using roaming profiles. My problem is this. How do we make the administrator account have administrative priv's locally on the client PC when they login on the DOMAIN? What is happening now is that when the Administrator logs in it just makes a domain accoutn for the Administrator locally but this new account does not have actualy administrator

Hello- When our users log off for the evening and log back in in the morning they are having to re-enter the SMB password for the network shares they had saved when mapping them. In the past when the local username and password matched the smbpasswd file then all connections restored w/o a hitch. Its now not working. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Below is my small smb.conf file

Todd, I experienced a similar problem. I know it sounds trivial... I used the version of Samba that came with the install CD of RHLinux 7.3, and got it running well. Then I read about the bugs and so I upgraded to Samba 2.2.8a. Afterwards, whenever I would make any changes to /etc/samba/smb.conf, I would not see any difference in Samba's behavior. Then I ran testparm and I noticed

Hi I have read that Samba can emulate an NT Domain. Is this still possible? I dont see much about it listed anymore. Is it still supported in 2.2.8a. Does anyone have any information concerning this? We would like our version to do this so we can do some testing with one of our NetApp 880's. -- Thank you TJ _________________________________ Steven ?Todd? Johnson State of Alaska Dept.

Hi all, I've had cross-subnet browsing working in Samba in the past, though I tend to struggle with it each time I set it up. For whatever reason, I can't seem to get things working this time. Summary: Only my desktop, not the file server, shows up in the desktop's Network Neighborhood. (I have left the machines running for several hours, in case there's a time-to-sync issue

Ok, after several months of pulling my hair out I finally fixed WINS and browsing at out Univesity. It ended up being an acutal bug, er bad code segment. To explain we have a large number of clients ~1000+ at any one time over 6 subnets. Browsing was spuratic at best. nmbd sucked up %70 of the proccessing power of a sparc 5. Well after serious investigation I traced it down to two lines of

I am trying to get roaming profiles working for my Win2K workstation and run a group login script at logon. My user account (traxx) can join and logon to the domain (DATA) but I get 2 error messages after authentication: 1 'Windows cannot create profile directory \\henry\dcarter\profile.pds. You will be loggeed on with a local profile only. Changes to the profile will not be propogated to the

Woops! In my last email, I meant to say the second command was: rsync --no-whole-file --progress theFile /path/to/dest Todd Hi, My situation is that I would like to use rsync to copy very large files within my network/systems. Specifically, these files are in the order of 10-100GB. Needless to say, I would like to be able to restart a transfer if it only partially succeeded, but NOT repeat

I'm more like a caveman when it comes to programming tools. So, with that in mind, is there a way to use readBin in a batch format to read in pieces of a large binary file? Thank you for the consideration of my question. Todd Remund

Encountered the following problem and would like to know if this is a known issue, whether there's a fix, or workaround: Using libguestfs and the python bindings to inspect VMs. Fairly successfully for the most part, but had one Windows image today that fails in the following manner. File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/guestfs.py", line 910, in inspect_os r =

I have had a strange problem with rgl. I am currently switching from a desktop computer to a workstation. When I get a very large data set and run spectro3D, the computations run then the window with the 3d plot appears it doesn't show the data inside and immediately shuts down R. The computers have OpenGL on them, but a colleague suspects the configuration of rgl with OpenGL may be the

Grasping a full understanding of setting default Users, Groups and Masks has alluded me over the years, but now I find myself in a situation where manually "setting" the file/directory attributes is becoming a pain. I understand the fundamentals of the file attributes, though from time to time I have to review the "sticky bit"; what I do not understand is where/how the

Hi, My situation is that I would like to use rsync to copy very large files within my network/systems. Specifically, these files are in the order of 10-100GB. Needless to say, I would like to be able to restart a transfer if it only partially succeeded, but NOT repeat the work already done. Currently, I am initiating the transfer with this command: rsync --partial --progress theFile

Pam_SMB allows Linux clients to validate their passwords against an NT PDC, so the only thing you have to do is set up the accounts on the Linux side with an '*' in the /etc/passwd entry. This can be done using a list of users: #!/bin/bash for i in `cat myuserlist`; do /usr/sbin/adduser -p '*' $i with various other command line options, such as "-s

Hello, I have a samba server on OpenPower (SUSE SLES9) and a DS4300 storage attached.There is a lot of data (8 TB mp3 files). Some directories contains more then 250.000 files. The application is a music playbox in a huge CD shop: you can take a CD hold it under the scanner and after the barcode is scanned it starts playing the first CD track (for 30 seconds). All files are exactly 125K in size.

Hi I have a intel S400-e nas box, that runs the Linux / samba, as supplied with the latest updates form Intel..
