similar to: Samba 3 vs. Windows 2003

I've got a NFS directory that's shared among my RHEL5 servers that I'd like to give access to a couple of Win2K servers, also. The easiest way to do so is to NFS mount the directory on my Samba server, and export the directory as a Samba share. It works. Kind of. But it redefines 'slow'. Copying the file from a normal Samba share takes under 10 seconds on a slow network:

Hi Rowland, > Can you try the join command like this: > samba-tool domain join office.example.com DC -UAdministrator > --password=TheActualPassword --dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ > Rowland When I run samba-tool like this without specifying the server, it chooses the older backup server that runs Server 2008 (named PE2600). Joining to this server results in a different error: .... INFO

I was stung by this bug yesterday myself and although there are numerous references to this error message I haven't seen any qualified resolution of the problem. Not that the following rant hopes to be such, but it's a good story. My setup is a stable 2.2.8a production domain and an experimental 3.0.2a-SuSE domain. The passwd backend is still smbpasswd. I wish there were a better

But there's a little rub - the redirection on W2K side introduces a carriage-return character before each line-feed, like ftp in ascii mode. Sorry about that. Even the cygWin filter "dd" can't help it. >|% You may use "rexec" from W2K to remotely start a process on >|% a Linux box and then redirect the output to a file, like this: >|% >|%

Both "rexec.exe" and "rsh.exe" from W2K have the problem. However, the "rsh.exe" from Hummingbird's Exceed package works just fine. I copied it into my cygWin's /usr/bin directory and did cd /cygdrive/c/temp time rsh p92 "cd /local;tar cbf 64 - SAS" | dd of=here.tar and the file is OK. It tars out all the files in SAS directory.

We're a Solaris/Linux shop, trying to migrate the last vestiges of our NT domain over to Samba. We've got a few users using Windows 20000 workstations, and for some odd reason can't get them to join the domain with local profiles. The Winboxen always try to create roaming profiles on the PDC (which we don't want), and there's no way to force a local profile, other than

Hi folks - I'm having an issue here. I have my samba server sitting on one subnet, and the rest of the clients sitting on another (due to IP administration reasons). I assign both my clients and the server to the same workgroup, but the winboxen clients can't browse to the samba server. The win clients all have WINS resolution turned on, and I specified all of my WINS servers in

Greetings - In my logwatch report this morning I noticed reference to an attempt to connect to rsync from an external IP address. It doesn't appear that the connection was successful based on correlating information between /var/log/secure and /var/log/messages. But I am looking for some suggestions for implementing more preventative measures, if necessary. The log information from

Hi Sambatistas, a few days ago there was a discussion, how to force jobs runas administrator at netlogon. If you use a default.bat at netlogon this is executed as the logon user , therefor you are running in rights problems if you wanna execute job which need admin right like regedit /s . I found myself in this problem too, pushing the user to use the logon screensaver as default, i created a reg

Dudes and/or Dudettes: HEEELLLPPP! (such a newbie statement) I can't get my remote SMB mounts to work on my Linux box. duke was happily running Slackware Linux 2.0.36 and Samba 1.9.18p8 . I upgraded to Linux 2.2.0pre9 (2.2.0final), which seemed to require upgrading to Samba 2.0.0 . (I don't remember the exact errors) Now i can't get my NT and '95 disks to stay mounted on

I'm attempting to configure Samba 3.0.4 to work with Windows 2003 Active Directory, mapping users' home directories automatically. Currently we use this method in production with Windows 2000 but wish to migrate to 2003. The problem seems to be Kerberos related. I was able to join the Linux box (RedHat 9) to the AD. I can do a "kinit <username>" successfully. Klist shows a

hi all, i've added a samba4 additional dc to my domain. all provision was ok with samba-tool domain join xx.mydomain.com DC -Uadministrator --realm=xx.mydomain.com command and i can replicate correctly from winpdc to sambadc. i have a couple of questions: 1) with adsedit i see objectversion 47 for my winpdc.mydom.com (is w2k3) which means 2008R2 (correct?) 2) on the samba4 side if i test

I have a very simple setup here that I have recently made some modifications to and it has affected my ability to save files to the linux samba server. The recent changes are: converted all fs's to xfs from ext3. Upgraded to latest kernel 2.6.7 from a 2.4 kernel. Samba used to work fine. Now, I can copy files out of my linux samba server to my windows machine at full speed. However, when

Greetings - I will be getting a new server for my company in the next few months and am trying to get a better understanding of some of the basic theoretical approaches to using Centos KVM on a server. I have found plenty of things to read that discuss how to install KVM on the host and how to install a guest and setup the network bridge, and all the other rudimentary tasks. But all of

As mentioned in my previous posting, I've set up a mailserver for a domain of Winboxen, authenticated through Active Directory. After some struggles, I finally got that working. But I also need to receive emails for a few system users on the mailserver (like postmaster, and a couple of accounts set up for maintaining the system). I thought, based on the way I read the documentation,

[originally posted to fedora-users] I'm having difficulty getting samba/winbind to authenticate of a W2K3 box.
