similar to: Linux Samba in multi-boot with W2k in a NT domain

We have a Windows 2000 server with Terminal Services. It is an Active Directory master server for a microscopic network comprising itself and one Windows 2000 Workstation client. It is part of a network consisting of Unix machines: several Solaris 8 systems, a handful of Linux boxes, and a Mac OS X workstation. User authentication and other login information on this network is provided by NIS

After an upgrade of debian/stable-> testing, samba got upgraded from 2.x to 3.0.2a. And now my Win98 clients can't connect. To make matters worse nothing is showing in the logs when they try to connect. W2k connects fine and there is logging that they connect and disconnect from shares. I double checked encrypted/plaintext passwords on the win98 box, but neither mode helps. Any help

Is there a way to create an NTConfig.POL file without having access to an NT4, w2k or w2k3 server? Is there a way to do it in linux? Or a winxp/9x workstation?

Okay, I've had some fun there. Let me tell I am no samba pro, so the patch below _should be tested and tested again_ in _your_ environment before doing anything close to putting your patched samba into production. It can possibly break everything. You have been warned. The mail is somehow longish, because sending a quick (and dirty) patch without any explanation seems wrong to me. And

Good morning. Let me start by thanking those of you who helped with my first question posed to this group. Now, I have a working PDC. This is wonderful. I have a problem with my login script though. I can't seem get the %u or %U variable to work. I am trying to map a drive letter via the login.bat script file for each user that authenticates to the domain, however it seems to strip the

I didn't get any answers so I try again: I am using tdbsam as passdb backand. I have added root user with pdbedit. The machine trust account was added on the fly. I have added the user with pdbedit. I have created the user in /etc/passwd. When the user logs in from a W2k and mounts the home-directory I noticed that Samba didn't take the home-directory information from tdbsam, it

Hello, I am using Samba 2.2.3a on SuSE 7.2 with kernel 2.4.4.Usually client machine have W95/98/W2K OS. I have already seven Samba server instalations on the company's branches and it works fine !

In our company's W2K-domain we decided to put all roaming profiles on Samba-servers (RH 9.0 / samba 2.2.8) The Samba-servers are configured for using DOMAIN-security. Part of our /etc/smb.conf look like [Profiles] path = /usr/local/samba/profiles comment = Profile-share browseable = no writeable = yes create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 We simply copied al the "old"

Hi all, I'm new to Linux and Samba. I have two seperate hard drives, one has w2k and the other Red Hat Linux 7.3. Yessterday I struggeled to make the SWAT work. Then I realized that now I need to learn how to use SWAT. Before I invest time in learning how to use SWAT, my question is if I using w2k, can I access the hard drive that Linux is on and vice versa.

Hello List, I need help to access my private linux box using my company laptop (w2k). The smb connection between both computers worked fine for the last years. Now, during the last couple of weeks our internal IT-department was closed and outsourced. A new external company installed an Active Directory server and somehow managed to migrate my laptop, too, to use the company's AD (I

Hi. I posted last week a question about a network with some XP PCs. One PC connects fine to the samba server, but the other one is quite slow, almost unusable. There are also Win98 hosts running fine. Someone kindly answered he had the same problem, and solved it upgrading to samba-3 beta. I can't put beta software on this server. Do I have any other option ? Here is an extract of the

Kristyan (and all) I just searched the samba website, and I couldnt find any reference to spnego except for a slide show (samba-lwny.ag ) that I can't open. ANYWAY. since I can't find any reference to the spnego parameter, could someone explain what it is, what it does, and HOW it can help us "stupid" people? It doesnt seem to be a parameter I've come across before..

I have a user who was having problem accessing samba. So I suggested him to try to login from other system to see if it's problem with his pc or his account. Then he found that when he used other person's PC, it didn't ask for password at all and gave full access to his account! The two person's accounts are totally different. Any idea? Thanks. --

So like at least a handful of people before me I have begun the valiant stugle to unify logins at my place of business. I have setup a test LDAP + Kerberos V cluster. And I have Setup a test Samba 3 PDC. What I would like to do is get Samba to handle kerberos ticket granting and authentication to the (LDAP + Kerberos V) Directory. Such that Windows is completely unaware of the existence of

Hello, I maintain a network of numerous Linux workstations, several Apples, and a few Windows machines. The Apples and Windows XP machines already grab shared data via Samba and the remaining data is exported to the Linux machines via NFS. I am in the process of migrating the existing authentication system from XYZ123 to Kerberos and going to place user data---with the exception of passwords

Hi! How do I configure smb.conf and/or Pam as a single sign on server if I have a LDAP server with a Kerberos as password backend through gssapi? I only see either Samba/ldap as PDC or Samba/kerberos with ads on the Internet. Not both at the same time? I've already configured samba with LDAP and Kerberos support. Everything seams to works. I also configured Samba with ads and Pam support if

I need a little better information regarding the mapping of groups between an NT PDC and a SAMBA PDC, which trust each other. On the NT machine is a group called "ntgreen." On the Linux box (running RH9 with Samba 3.0), there is a group called "lxgreen". I've done a: net groupmap add ntgroup=ntgreen unixgroup=lxgreen. The mapping shows up in a net groupmap list.
