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. Do you have an idea how to ban this editor window from desktop after

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? Or how to get it done any other way? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Derrick Seymour Administrative Services Northeastern Regional Information Center Capital Region BOCES

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

I extracted the following weird error from the sys-log regarding pdu and schannel (have the same PID): Feb 24 10:40:37 s-svr01 smbd[31833]: [2004/02/24 10:40:37, 0, pid=31833, effective(65534, 65533), real(65534, 0)] rpc_server/srv_pipe.c:api_pipe_netsec_process(1371) Feb 24 10:40:37 s-svr01 smbd[31833]: failed to decode PDU Feb 24 10:40:37 s-svr01 smbd[31833]: [2004/02/24 10:40:37, 0,

Oh, so you are using ldap..., well I'm still working with smbpasswd as backend :-( Anyway, I tried 'net getlocalsid' for the domain-sid -> ok Next 'net usersidlist' which should show me the user-sids -> didn't work: "[2004/03/04 06:40:05, 0, pid=31232, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] utils/net_rpc.c:net_usersidlist(2158) Could not get the user/sid list" So

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

Hi all, I don't know if it's of interest... when we were using home or profile shares with outlook.pst files, we had massive trouble with either shares breaking away or *.pst files getting corrupted. I can't tell the difference between shares of the [home]/[profile] sections and standard shares [<...>] but we fixed the problem by setting up individual user shares (one user ==

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

Hello I have a problem while synching between two NAS boxes with Linux. First NAS: group staff=50 (3.0.3pre1) Second NAS: groups ftp=50, staff=500 (rsync 3.1.1) I synched with -rptgo, without --numeric-ids. The expected result was that the items on the second group would be staff as well even with a different gid. However it looks like the 50 was taken literally and now all staff items are ftp

Hello! We are synching some server data (websites, logfiles, ...) with rsync via ssh and are detecting a weird problem: Certain files and directories, apparently those who are regulary rsynced over the WAN, tend to use far too many blocks, e.g.: stat from file on server: File: `bilder.html' Size: 2009 Blocks: 288 IO Block: 4096 regular file [...] The same file (a fresh

I've been doing some tests of file synchronization with Unison (think "two way rsync"), and run into one problem: Synching between servers has conflicts on the index file. I can manually exclude, but what seems to me to be a really wonderful feature would be to, preferably, make the indexes somewhat atomic, so that files, once written, don't change (this is a feature of maildirs

Hi, We're synching mailboxes, changing format from maildir to mdbox, using doveadm backup/doveadm sync. When still running 2.2.36, 'doveadm backup' also synched the sieve scripts, without issues. After the upgrade to 2.3.5.1, the sieve sync stopped working. We're using the pre-built 2.3 packages from https://repo.dovecot.org/ce-2.3-latest/debian/stretch In fact, when I now

I am sorry if this has been covered before: I have done a couple of futile searches in the bug reporting system and is there any way to search the archive? I am having a strange symptom: I am synching directories (that have very long file names, by the time the full path is specified) and a lot of hard links. It seems that the directory is being copied piecemeal - that is, if I run rsync enough
