similar to: AW: SAMBA 3 as PDC - W2K/WXP Pro logon trouble

This worked. I am just having trouble with the profile I copied over to my server. It seems like something got screwed up in the copy over. My desktop and Start Menu, well all my windows as a matter of fact look like win 2k instead of xp. And none of my settings I configured before I copied it over came over. The profile is fine until I copy it to my server. I tried it on a bunch of xp

I had a working "Samba-2.2.7a-SuSE" domain (with roaming profiles,etc.) but this server crashed. So I copied the samba directory with the config files (including secrets.tdb, passwd, ...) from my backup to the second server and started nmb and smb, but the Clients could'nt log onto the domain. The error was something like: "You couldn't log on. Please check username and

I have a Samba 3 PDC running with an LDAP backend on Red Hat 8. All authentication appears to be working correctly but I can't login to the domain from a W2K or WXP Pro workstation after I have successfully joined them to the domain. If I login locally to the workstation I can browse the Samba shares just fine. I have checked the schannel and sign or seal settings on both the workstations

Hi there, WinXP Prof-Client on a samba 3.0.2a-Domain The domain-login ist ok in general. But when a user logs in, he gets an editor-window with a desktop.ini. content: [.ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\System32\shell32.dll ,-21787 ) i think, this ist desktop.ini in //%L/profiles/%u/startmenu/autostart.

Hello! Our users change their passwords using the original Win2K password change mechanisms (Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Change Password). If one of the users changes his password and the new one is shorter then 5 characters it is rejected. This appears in the logfile and that's OK so far but the users don't get notified. They think the password has changed and use the new one. Why is that? Could

Hi list I'm wondering if it and how it is possible to add printers to a workstation with a logon script like mounting shares. I can't find anything about this on the inetnet so is this possible? regards lm

Hi I'm quite new to Linux and now I've got a problem with installing the Samba 3.0.2 RPMs on my SuSE 8.2 system. I deinstalled the older version of Samba and tried to install by using the rpm -i command. After successfully installing the client and documentation RPMs i get the following errors: pcy23:~ # rpm -i samba3-winbind-3.0.2a-30.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: samba

Does anyone know how to edit smb.conf so that a users profile won't be saved upon log out?

Hi list, I intend to run an old pentium 133 as a linux-based fileserver on my home network (I have to use windows for my main machine and laptop!) Im having great diffiuculty synching the data, email, etc on my laptop and desktop, so I thought I might configure samba to act as a DC and use roaming profiles to make sure that my data is always synched. My question is this: is it worth the effort?

Thanks to everyone who has tried to help so far. Not quite there but I think I'm close. For anyone new, it's a private 2 comp network (RH9 and WXP) so I just want the simplest guest access possible. This is my current smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = SAMBA encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd security = share null

Hi, I've finally gotten my LDAP password backend up and running, and finally figured out the SID 1000/1001 thing for Samba admin. However I'm unable to join the workstation to my domain. Using any random user in the WXP dialogue, I get the "Access is Denied" error. Fair enough. Using the user with sambasid and sambagroupsid s-*-1000/s-*-1001, I get the error "The Username

I got half way through an installation of CentOS on a box that has Window$ 98 in the first partition and Window$ XP in the second, where CentOS was designated for partitions 3 (/boot - 128MB) and 4 (/) and had some strange results. During the install, I changed the default OS to boot to Window$ (because I rarely use this machine, but others who don't have a clue use Wxx), but then while the

Let me rephrase my question: How do I access shares with WXP Pro. I don't want to be part of a domain. I just want to be able to search for the server from the computer, map a network drive to a share, and then life will be good. With that said, right now I can find the server. I can double-click it. But what comes up is a login box that only lets me put in a password. The
