G'day ya all. i had a few day's off, and was able to make samba-3's first user editor (it's actualy an front-end for pdbedit!!) check out : http://213.34.118.231/pdbedit/ let me know what you think of this user manager for samba-3 Greetings. --------------------------------------------- Collen Blijenberg (Systeem/Netwerk Beheerder) Montessori Lyceum Herman Jordan Zeist

ehh, just a little remark/note for the mysql passwd backend users and developers... when adding a user, the 'account desc' field is NOT filled in..! when adding some text manualy, and doing pdbedit -v <user> the field showes up, so when reading from the passwdbackend, the fields are resolved, when writting too the passwdbackend , the description field (and maybe more important

Hmm, gues i missed something... i updated to samba 304, and i had a print script (print command = <script>) but it's not executed annymore ?? i do use cups to get the papers roling...! i did saw some info in the man, saying, that samba compiled against libcups, is not using the print command annymore ?? Huh.. why ?? is there a way to use my cups printer daemon, and the print command ?

i stumble into the following prob.. got 302 - mysql3 - rh9 i have aprox 1200 users, and 1190 are domain users.. i got like 5 users, who should be mapped into domain user mapped into domain admin ??? in the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files, the are mapped in to domain user group, and NOT in the domain admin group.. (so this would be fine..) in the mysql-db, the group sid- is set to the same sid

Well, in my case, i have samba running as a server, with auth. to 2 samba pbc/bdc servers this server uses winbind to resolve usernames and groups. i get the error: [ date ] nsswitch/winbind_user.c:winbind_getpwnam(159) user 'collen' does not exist. [ date ] nsswitch/winbind_user.c:winbind_getpwnam(159) user 'COLLEN' does not exist. and the user in question can not acces the

Dear Herman, We had the same problems over here. The problem seems to be related to Windows Hotfix KB828741. Removing the hotfix through the control panel solved it for us.

Hi, I think that the delete user script is called only by smbd when a usrmgr or other external tools work with samba. smbpasswd and pdbedit is local tools and not use the "delete user script", it work directly with the selected sam. ----------------------------------- St?phane PURNELLE stephane.purnelle@corman.be Service Informatique Corman S.A.

Dear Sir : Nice to meet you. We are using the Samba v2.0.7 ported from uClinux to build the Samba = server for Network Storage. Currently, we met several strange problems as below : 1) Under Windows XP : The Windows backup function cannot work. But the BackUp function works well under Windows 2000. 2) Under Windows 98/98SE, we cannot copy a file

Hi, I have been experimenting and googling without finding so much as a hint to what I am doing wrong. I have a Samba server (Ubuntu 10.04) set up for standalone usage. I have Posix ACL's enabled on my filesystem, and a directory with the following permissions: # file: beheer/ # owner: beheerder # group: users user::rwx user:clamav:r-x user:beheerder:rwx group::--- group:users:--- mask::rwx

G'day.. just haveing the straingest problem.. I'd upgraded to the 302rc1 version. i configed it to be an pdc controller, with wins to manage our local domain.. only when browsing the domain list. it gives error(s) once in a while.. "An extended error has occured" & "the system cannot find massage text for message number 0x in the message file for \\hostname"

i have a samba/ldap pdc with smbldap-tools and i have the same 'net groupmap list' as holger wesser's machine. the groups were created by smbldap-populate, i didnt do it myself, so i think it's fairly normal. could anybody confirm ? regards samba 3.0.22 openldap 2.2.23 smbldap-tools 0.8.7 -------- Message original -------- Sujet: Re: USRMGR.exe not working properly Date: Mon,

i built a samba/ldap pdc. i have the same 'net groupmap list' as holger wesser. it was made by a 'net rpc vampire' because i have to migrate from an NT4 domain. so if i understand well, 'net rpc vampire' creates unix groups with blank spaces but shouldnt ? unix groups are at the right of the groupmap list ? exact ? Do i have to correct unix groups in the ldap base and put

Hi all, I have storages over two locations and use RedHat Linux 4 and 5 as OS. I want to distribute my data over these two locations. With ASM and LVM you can mirror your data over two disks.

Hello, I think i may have found a bug in the "max clients" option in rsyncd.conf [we use rsync-2.5.5; All platforms I tried (Irix-6.5.14 and various linux flavours) show the behaviour explained below] The manpage says: |max connections | The "max connections" option allows you to specify | the maximum number of simultaneous connections you | will allow to

just noticed the following problem.. after running samba 302rc1(as pdc) for a few day's. old SMBD pid's are left in the procces tree.. eating memory and cpu time, causing linux to overload and not function annymore. after stopping samba, the smbd pid's will stay. stopping samba the 2nd time will do the trick, they finaly disapear... so you have to stop samba twice.. ?? don't

Well hello ya all. first i would like to say, that we succesfully switched from a wind*s pdc to the samba 3 beta1 pdc. it all looks to work fine., we use tdbsam as pasword back end.. the only worries i get is the fact that some how the local user groups (administrator, users, guest ect ect) won't realy work. i mapped them in the same way i did with the domain groups (and those work just

I am having problems with quotas on a RH8 server. I have compiled samba with the --with-quotas and --with-sys-quotas. If I leave the default kernel on rh8, which is 2.4.18-4, and set the user's quota, eg 10MB, the capacity is shown as 10MB. I compiled the newest kernel with the quota options: CONFIG_QUOTA=y CONFIG_QFMT_V2=y The quotas still work, however the disk size reported as the
