Hi guys, How I say to the "set quota command" what quota directory I wanna set? --------------------------------------------------- Emerson Henrique Kfuri Pereira Divis?o de Atendimento e Consultoria CECOM - Reitoria - UFMG Telefone: 34994009 ---------------------------------------------------

I have a Samba 3 server, and a client with Samba 3. The server has a share for home directories, and the client is trying to mount it, but after it's mounted, I still can't create any symbolic links. Also, the GUI login (Red Hat Enterprise default) isn't working, but I think that's just a symptom of the symbolic and hard links not working. Any idea why, when I enable unix

The setup is a samba server with mixed clients (samba clients and windows clients). The problem, I want the linux client to mount there home to their home share on the server. The problem is, I have followed the guide mentioned below and everything works except that the linux usernames have the format domeinnaam+username as a result of which pam_mount wants to mount

Hello, Sorry to have posted in the wrong thread, resending the email. We have a samba domain and now some of the users from WINDOWS 2000 Pro are unable to change their password, below is the error : They are able to login without any problems. pdb_free_sam: SAM_ACCOUNT was NULL [2004/06/07 13:52:29, 0] smbd/chgpasswd.c:check_oem_password(817) check_oem_password: incorrect password length

I asked this question a while ago, but never got any response. Since then, I've researched the problem some more, so I can give a much more concise description of what's happening. I'm mounting the home directories of the users upon login (using pam_mount) from the Windows server. However, none of the users can run X Windows. It says there's a problem with the .Xauthority file.

I have a feeling I may have lost focus on the issue in some of my previous messages... so here's my dilemma. I have several Windows (2000 and XP) clients, and several Linux (Red Hat Enterprise 3, 2.4.21 kernel) clients. I've got a couple servers, one is currently Windows 2000 Server, and one is Linux (same as above, with the snapshot Samba running). I want to be able to have users log

I had a test machine up and running Samba, joining an AD domain, and set up with winbind... when I ran "getent passwd" it would list all the local users, and all the domain users. I could also log in as a domain user without any problem. So, I made an image of the hard drive, and copied it to 7 other machines. Now, those 7 are having a strange problem. I changed the names and IP's of

Hi all!! the subject is clearly, but... I'm running Samba 3.0.2 serving +/- 50 win98 clients... Can I, on client logon, deny/allow access in a specific machine? Let's say that I want that users from group students could be able to login only in machine1 and machine2 can I do something like this with samba?? Thanks in advance Fl?vio Henrique

I've setup a linux box with winbind as a member in Win2003 AD and everything works fine. I want to share the Win2003 users home dirs with the linux box, i.e. when a user logs into the linux box, after he's authenticated through winbind, he should have his home dir from the Windows box, how can I do that?? Obviously I have to use CIFS to mount the dirs, but how do I maintain file and dirs

I have been trying for two weeks to get onto a Win2k domain which has active directory with no success. The Suse YAST samba client will not do ADS, only domain, server, or user, so I went to the command line stuff I found the the Samba documentation. I can do kinit and get back the following: sha-linux:/etc/samba # kinit art_fore@3MTS.COM art_fore@3MTS.COM's Password: kinit: NOTICE:

Guys, I got the samba 3.0.4 source rpm and samba 3.0.4 patch. So I applied the patch with succefful and included in samba3.spec --with-acl-support.

Hello, I have installed samba-vscan module but when I try to read a test file: May 24 12:14:12 va2 smbd_vscan-clamav[15035]: ERROR: file /home/testav/eicar.com not found, not readable or an error occured why ? my smb.conf for homes: [homes] comment = home of %U, %u read only = No valid users = %U create mask = 0644 directory mask = 0775

I have set up winbind successfully, but every time I need to perform any task as root, winbind tries to login via the domain server, which gives an "incorrect password" error. Is there a way to set things up so that the root user is only checked against the local passwd/shadow files? -- Ramon Casha Malta Linux User Group (http://linux.org.mt)

HI, I am trying to setup winbind on Samba 3.0.2 running on Red Hat AS 3.0. I have completed most of the steps of setting up winbind successfully but when it came for me to login in using the AD account username and password, it didn't allow me to login. the error message i am getting is incorrect password or check username. During the setup i tested the wbinfo -u command and i was

Hello, last try: Is it possible to change the password on a NT PDC with a Samba tool? I want to bind to the PDC as administrator and set the password of a normal user to a new value - without knowing the old value. I've asked this already but, unfortunately, got no answer (http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-December/076170.html ,

I'm having quite a bit of trouble getting an LDAP directory set up for the idmap backend for winbind. I've been working on it for quite a while, and haven't found any very helpful websites or anything. I've found quite a bit on how to set up a PDC using LDAP, which would be nice, but I already have the PDC... I just need LDAP to host UID's and GID's. The things I'd like

I just installed samba3+samba-vscan via ports on a FreeBSD 4.x system. Samba is running just fine and thanks to the help of webmin it was easily configured. Today I finally was able to get windows shares to be mounted on my FreeBSD server. So naturally I want to run av scans on it. I set it up to mount the entire C drive and to scan it using clamav which is also installed from ports. I recompiled
