Hello. I am trying to set up SAMBA 3.x on FC4. SAMBA will be PDC with no other server. I work at a K-12 school, so unless I want 20 episodes of "Family Guy" in a student's folder, I need to set quotas. I've been looking around for 2 days and I'm stumped. I found something called smbcquotas, but it seems to apply to a mixed NT server environment. I heard rumors of configure

I'm trying to grasp pg. 154 of the "Official SAMBA-3" book by Terpstra and Vernooij and I'm just missing a critical networking concept. I understand that SIDs are the numerical identification of a user for the Windows world. I understand that UIDs are the equivalent for the *nix world. But what the @$@! is a Relative IDentifier (RID)?!? On page 153 the command to map a

My Samba Server had a wild time this weekend thanks to alleged power fluctuations. I'm using Samba 3.x on Fedora 4. My server sits on an APC UPS that remains in good health. When I arrived this Monday I found that my MicroTik Router was still up. My Win XP pro AV server was off and my Fedora/SAMBA box was also off. (all boxes have their own 15min UPS) The Win XP pro was brought up w/out

I have been running our companies XP Pro systems on our Samba domain controller (version: 3.0.10-1.4E) with local administrative rights up to this point. Everything has worked fine. We are getting larger now and I'd like to make the logins locally restricted (I want them to have XP's "Users" rights and "Remote Desktop Users" only). When I restrict the accounts

Hi Samba List - I've been surfing the web for a while looking for some help with moving an existing Samba 3.0 PDC to a different machine. I don't want to have to reconfigure each machine on my domain. There has got to be a way to backup the full domain controller, reinstall the samba packages on a new Linux machine, and just restore the users database, etc. I'm sure someone has

Day 2 of my adventure into Samba. Having had such success with workgroup-based Samba, it was time to try Samba as a PDC. Unfortunately, it got cut short very quickly because I am not able to log into the domain from the XP client. I took the following steps (I'm using Samba 3.0): - modified my smb.conf as per instructions in O'Reilly Using Samba, 2nd Ed. (I think this may be part

Hi, I'm configuring samba as PDC for my network, but I'm having a few problems: 1) roaming profiles are not working, even if I've made up symbolic links in the directories, such as (for user luca): sede:/home/samba-ntprof/luca # ls -l totale 1 drwx------ 3 luca users 120 2004-11-12 17:06 . drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 72 2004-11-12 11:58 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2004-11-12

Sirs, I have Linux Samba Server with following "global" smb.conf file. This server is acting as PDC with CAT domain name. We have window 2000 PC's connect to this server. We had changed some registry for win2000 PC so it can join the domain CAT. I believe that was required. Now, my question is, can I set up new Linux Samba Serve even though I have one server acting as domain? What

I have an annoying problem with my new (and first) SAMBA PDC deployment. Valid users are being connected to the root directory "/" of my server as nobody. The only way you can discover the user is to troll the log file. Here is my config file as pertains to users: [global] - encrypt passwords=yes ; wins support=yes ; security=user ; domain logons=yes ; oplocks=no ;

Hello everyone, I just setup an mp3 streaming server on an old laptop I had laying around using icecast and ezstream. The problem I am having is that when ezstream gets to a certain song in a playlist I get the error "*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x080576e0 ***". I'm not sure if it is doing this because of the song number it is or if it is a

Hi, PDC works fine, but Samba BDC doesn't make its job. In srvmgr.exe PDC, BDC appear, but when I kill smb PDC's process, normaly BDC may give a response to smb request. My problem... BDC do not respond, no PDC :: no authentification. any idea. my smb.conf : [global] # Main Config. netbios name = LYS workgroup = TNN server string = Lys (TNN's PDC) security = user domain

Hello, I am usin Samba 3.0.2 on RHES 3.0 with w2k Clients. When i make the [homes] service available the clients can access the directory. But die directory will not be mapped on the Winows clients.
