I have been trying to setup two samba servers on Fedora Core 2 for the past 30 hours and am about to jump out a window.

Doesn't anyone here know how to authenticate hosts in the group 'Domain Controllers' such that you don't have to set 'ldap admin dn' to the ldap server's root dn? What's the big deal?

Hello, I'm about to deploy Samba PDC and several BDCs. As far as I understand Samba and domain logons, this means that a user will be able to log onto any server, with his workstation choosing a domain controller that is probably the closest/fastest etc. one. As a consequence, this also means, that on each server there has to be a copy of a profile of a given user, right? If so, how can

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6 on Linux and am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to delete a print driver from the driver database? I have around 20 printers running off of this print server and occasionally we remove all of a certain type of printer. Also, for some reason, the drivers sometimes seem to become corrupt and it would be nice to be able to entirely remove a driver and

Contact your network administrator. DETAIL - The system cannot find the file
