I am using Samba 2.0.9 on S1 SuSE box and Samba 2.2.5 on S2 Suse box. S1 is acting as PDC for 98, NT clients. (logon script, shares from S1, and S2). Users's passwords are stored on S1, S2 uses security = server and password server = S1 options in smb.conf. I have upgraded both to Samba 2.2.8, but the logon script wants to connect to share from S2, it is prompted for a password. I have

I plead complete ignorance. I have 2 Win98 boxes and a Win2K box trying to access a Samba 2.08 server running on OpenBSD 2.8. All IP addresses are hard coded with the IP of the Samba box as the Wins server (see the smb.conf) The Win2K box can resolve the name of the Samba machine but cannot map to it. The other boxes can't resolve the name. All are set to the same workgroup. [global]

I have a problem with XP (one is XP-Home, other XP-Pro). Whilst both can connect to samba (redhat 7.2 - downloaded lastest version samba last week and installed) XP refuses to reconnect the drives if I restart the XP computer, or log off and log back in again. Therefore I have to double-click on the network drive in My Computer everytime I start the computer and re-type the password. (this is a

Hi.. I'm having trouble getting to grips with NTFS ACLs in samba (2.2.3a-12.3 pkg for Debian) I've set up a samba server with the usual homes and share drives &c. Windows 98 clients are no problem. But the win 2k boxes are a different kettle of things. I was puzzled as to why one user would get another user's home share mounted on H: when i could find nothing in the 2k user

I have a stock Mandrake 8.1 server running with Samba 2.2.2. Applications like goldmine, ACT, or access etc... keep getting corrupted index's (multiple users using these applications w/ multiuser licenses). This does not happen on NT.

I want to share my linux printer with my windows laptop. The printer is attached to box with redhat 7.2 and samba-2.2.1a-4. The laptop runs windows 98 and they are connected by a netgear RP114 router. I have been following DIAGNOSIS.txt. I had trouble with the test 2, "ping ACLIENT" and "ping BIGSERVER" until I added ACLIENT to /etc/hosts on BIGSERVER and added BIGSERVER to

Hi everyone, I have a question about the logon script command. I've read and read and read the man page for smb.conf. In essence, I've duplicated the settings on the PDC how-to document to create a PDC with a logon script. However, when I log in, the scrips doesn't run. The only thing I don't have enabled, like the how-to, is roaming profiles. I'll include my smb.conf for

Dear samba, i am experiencing a problem when i was setting my redhat 9 to become a domain server for windows, there is no problem for windows 2000 (i have no problem with join domain and domain logins), but with windows XP it's a different story, there's no problem with join domain, but when i try to do domain logins i encountered the following message : "windows cannot connect to the

Hello, i'm new to the the list so excuse me if I ask for an old problem, but i found no solution in the archive. I try to set up a rh 7.3 server with samba 2.4 as PDC for win2000 sp2 clients. I configured the samba to create the machine accounts on the fly. When I try to join the domain the entries in smbpass and passwd are created fine. After a minute I get the message that I joined the

Unable to resolve my problem after long time of reading and searching I decide to ask for help to the experts. The problems is that there is no browse list even thought everything works fine.

Hello, I have Hylafax set up on a RedHat 7.3 server (which uses Samba 2.3b, IIRC). I am trying to get Respond[http://www.boerde.de/~horstf/], a Windows client program, to work with it. The way it works is that samba shares a postscript printer, which calls a perl script on the print command. The network is a Win 2k network, and I want samba to verify with the lan server (or have open access

First, I want to thank Mark Clement and Steve Litt for their comments. But as the subject indicates, i'm still not having any luck printing. Mark, I can't even get output to a test file. Below is a printout of testparm. One thing that *is* odd, is the reference to a "printers.def" file in /etc. There wasn't any such file there. The contents are a duplicate of the

I have tried recently to link up two computers over the network using my machine which is win2000 and our Redhat Linux server 7.2 using samba v 2.2. When I browse the network I can see the approprate workgroup which I have named 'Linux' but the workgroup appears to have nothing available inside it. That is no icon, basically no contents. I am at a dead end, can anyone help me out? Here is
